“ This place is amazing! I love their tacos and fresh juices. There are so few places left in this city where you can get a freshly-made fruit or vegetable juice. I wish I still lived close by. ”
“ One of the best carne Asada tacos in the city it's a grocery store with a taco bar in the back Highly recommend ”
“ I recommend the food the food is very good the service is right on time okay and it's a nice place to hang out at ”
“ I hadn't thought to try them out before a co worker who grew up in the area raved about the tacos here one day while giving me a ride home. After that, it seemed like every ride share driver who'd sparked conversation with me would ask if I'd ever had the tacos here because they'd either heard about them or have had them and told me how I was missing out. So eventually, I convinced my husband to take a walk with me to grab a few of these epic tacos. They told not one lie. Those tacos were amazing! Flavorful, juicy, and quite filling. It's my new go to for tacos in the area. ”
“ The best tacos in Chicago! All you have to do is walk inside the store and follow the signs and delicious smell ”
“ The service is extremely fast and he tacos are made fresh. Everyone is friendly, but seating is first come, first serve if you do not want the order to go. ”
“ Pretty good tacos here.They definitely fill them up with plenty of delicious meat.They get slammed on the weekend so be prepared.Totally recommend stopping in for tacos!!!! ”
“ This review is for the Paco's Tacos served at the back of the store. The tacos here never disappoint. I have been to this location a handful of times with my boyfriend, and have tried the carne asada and pollo guisado tacos. The carne asada tacos were delectable. The meat was tender and juicy, bursting with flavor. The pollo guisado were quite good too, but nothing beats the carne asada. I always smother my tacos with the salsa verde - literally so addicting! The people are always friendly and the service is quick, even during busy hours. Seating is limited, which may be a problem if you are looking to eat there. The last time I was there, I was with my dad who is handicapped and unable to get onto the high bar stools. It was a slight setback for us, but when he saw others getting their tacos, he pushed a chair aside and decided to stand instead of sit at the counter. He said that the setback was not even a setback if the tacos looked that good. Once he took his first bite, he proclaimed that he would always eat here no matter what the seating situation is. I looked into it and I'll have to try out the other Paco's locations that are stand alone and have more accessible seating, but this location gets five stars from my dad and I! ”
