My pregnant wife’s water broke and we took 10 emergency al pastor tacos from here. Over the phone the lady was so wholesome and supportive. She was excited for us even left cute notes on the bag. The tacos were delicious!

We love this place! Amazing family that owns it. Food is always wonderful and comforting. It’s like having a home cooked meal. It’s a staple for my family.

We ended up coming here based on Google Map’s recommendation that this was a good fit for us. And it ended up being a great experience. You can tell the family who owns it also works here and they take pride in what they do. They try their best to serve and please their customers. We felt welcome and cared for here. The food was authentic and great tasting. Prices were reasonable, if not cheap for Chicago standards. The salsa was too spicy for our tastebuds and the tacos were OK. From the outside you’d not even realize this restaurant is here. They have diaper changing stations in their bathrooms.

El Tezcal just added another notch to my bandolier of go-to Mexican restaurants. Based on Google reviews, I’d bookmarked ETM and was excited when an errand took me to the Albany Park neighborhood.

I was warmly greeted, told to sit anywhere–I chose a table by the window–and was promptly served with tortilla chips accompanied by red and green salsas.
My server recommended the chicken enchiladas with a rich mole negro. When she said that owner/chef Reyna had just finished cooking a batch–mole is time intensive–I leapt. Served with rice and beans and a small salad, the dish was muy delicioso! An on-the-house bowl of chicken noodle soup was equally good. The tab–very, very reasonable!

El Tezcal is BYOB so I’ll definitely be back with my wife and cervezas. Muchas gracias, reviewers, for your suggestion!

Stop reading and EAT HERE.
1. Staff could not be nicer
2. Vibe is so fun inside
3. THE FOOD. We fed 5 hungry adults comfortably for $65. With leftovers.
4. Ask them about their meal specials for games/events.

This is the kind neighborhood business you want to stick around. Reliable, affordable, memorable.

(Heads up the salsa is not mild. It’s beyond delicious but it has a kick to it.)

Soooo yummy! Place was Clean. Girl who took my order was super Nice. Killer street tacos. Refried beans weren’t on a plate, actually were flavorful. Definitely not glorified TB.

Family owned shop that has AMAZING food! Although a small staff everything came out quickly. All the portions are pretty big and worth the price. This was the most guac ive ever gotten from a resturant too! I saw another review saying they drive 45 min and while only 20 minutes away for me, this place is worth the drive and outbeats a lot of others closer to home. The best Mexican food I’ve had so far in Chicago!

I was really hopeful that El Tezcal would deliver on some amazing Mexican food based on the reviews. Had to get carry-out since we had our dog with us. Service was friendly and fast. I was torn between a 3 star and 4 star. The good aspects was the friendly service and the bistec a la mexicana had a nice flavour. But beyond that the misses for us were: the tacos were bland and lacked flavour. Also, it really ruins a meal when you get home and they mess up the order. Instead of Al Pastor taco they made them chicken tacos. I also asked for no beans and just rice. Since I ordered at the counter and they repeated my order, it wasn’t communication issues. It would have been ok if the taco was good but the chicken was dry.

Authentic Mexican food! Guacamole is a large portion, 2 cups. 2 tacos are the perfect amount. Pollo is stewed and full of flavor, pastor is rich with intense flavors.

The best things of this place was the prices, so if you wanna eat good at reasonable price this is the place for you.

They’re BYOB.

Nuestra visita fue agradable, nos encanto la decoración del lugar, la comida y los preciosos.

El restaurante permite que lleves tus propias bebidas alcohólicas, por ello no las venden alli.
