I bought a polish fried it was burnt to a crisp. The person serving said that is how beef turns after it is cooked. I wish I could show you all how it looked. I took it back and the cashier argued with me about my order hen he got it wrong.

One of the best burritos, I've eaten

I ordered a double hamburger with fries and taco and another burger with fries all for $10, the food was the best. Everyone should eat here.

I went to Tacos EL Tio for the first time last weekend with a friend. The carne asada burritos and…read morechips I did enjoy. And the waitress was helpful. What I did not like was random people coming off the street to solicit us for money, rude non customers coming from off the street to scream at the staff and people asking for free food. I would order from them for delivery but I will never eat there ever again based on this experience.

Today I Will Tell You About My Experience going to Tacos El Tio…read more So it was a nice mellow day and I was in the mood for some tacos, I decided hey! Let me try some steak Tacos Today. I remembered that me and a friend recently just came to grab some vegan tacos the other day and they were pretty good! And the customer service was fantastic ! I then walk in and walk up to the counter where it's visible seen that's the area to walk up to and speak with an agent , I than ask to order one steak taco! The lady tells me it's $6 bucks. In my head goes ( WoW $6 BucKS For A Taco... Whew ) I than remembered hmm ( Wasn't a Taco $4 dollar and some change the other day) I than remembered ( I have been going on a vegan diet with this Beautiful Lady I met from San Francisco ) I then say Hey! it's alright I'll just get a vegan taco. The lady still charged me $6 for the taco I didn't complain and when I go to sit down I asked the lady for a tray she says there's no more trays but it's guys sitting down with a tray and it's also a stack of trays on the other table. I will try again when I'm back in town but unbelievable of the treatment from the one lady.

Service was great you can either order at the counter or sit and they can come to you. It was quick and proper.

Burritos the size of a half loaf of bread…read more In looking around Brookfield for a place to eat at before we hit up Galloping Ghost Arcade, every online comment pointed to trying Taco Azteca. My dad was down for some tacos so we hit up Taco Azteca before we got to gaming. I actually drove by the place, missing the turn to get there due to the strange parking lot situation. After a loop around the block, we pull in to the shared parking lot and headed inside. My dad was looking at the menu on the drive up and was waffling between a taco salad and a burrito. Once I placed my order for a beef burrito, my dad followed up with the same thing. We tried to find a place to sit but the place isn't too conducive to eating in with the few tables they had were either taken or dirty from the prior visitor. The staff was super nice and friendly in trying to get a table cleaned up for us. We ended up snagging one and were promptly served tortilla chips with some of the best guacamole I have ever had. I'm not big on guac as I find it to taste too similar to pumpkin (everyone I tell this looks at me like I am crazy) but this stuff was delicious and had a nice kick to it. My dad found the sauce in one of the bottles to be spicy as hell and passed on using more of it. I found them to be quite yummy but I love me some heat. We nearly devoured half the chips by the time the food came out. They were that good and the food came out that fast. I'm used to Mexican-sized burritos but these might take the cake. They were MASSIVE. I showed everyone I know and their eyes got huge when they saw how big it was. The fries that came with it were those with the little bits of batter on them and I knew they were going to be good. I knew we were in for a good time. How do you even eat something that big? Very slowly and somewhat messy, that's how. I devoured half my tasty fries to free up space on my plate just in case I made a mess. Luckily, this burrito held itself together rather nicely. The burrito was super tasty but I do feel like maybe a chicken or pork version would've been better. I like beef but wasn't in the mood for it when I ate my burrito. That's on me though for not paying attention when ordering and accidentally getting beef. My dad loved his burrito and was able to put the whole thing down since he didn't eat breakfast. I had breakfast so I was only able to put down a little over half. My bottomless pit of a stomach isn't so bottomless now that I am almost 40 (a week shy of 39 during this visit). Overall, Taco Azteca lived up to the hype and was worth every bite. I really wanted to get some of the guac to go. My only warning is that the parking lot is shared and can be tight as well as the seats inside. This place serves better for carry-out if it's busy like it was when we were there.

This was my first time at Carnitas Don Alfredo, and it definitely won't be my last!…read more I was in the Melrose Park area running an errand, which is nowhere near where I live, and I remembered hearing that Don Alfredo was THE place to go for carnitas. Since I was already nearby, I had to stop! I went inside and placed an order to go. The carnitas are ordered by the pound, so I ordered 1.5 lbs. The employee asked if I wanted them mixed, and not really knowing what that meant, I just said sure. When I got home, I realized "mixed" means you get the meat along with different parts of the pig. Everything was tasty, but it was a little fattier than I prefer, so next time I'll know to ask for just the meat. We also tried the barbacoa, which was delicious, but now that I've tried both, I know the carnitas are what I'll be coming back for. We ordered rice and beans as well, and while they were fine, they weren't anything to rave about. The carnitas come with cilantro, onions, and lime, so you have everything you need to enjoy them at home. Overall, I can definitely see why Carnitas Don Alfredo is known for their carnitas. It may have been my first visit, but it definitely won't be my last! It's a long drive from where I live, but anytime I'm back in the area, I'll be stopping in -- and next time I'll know exactly how to order my carnitas!

Uno de los mejores lugares de carnitas que eh probado en Illinois. Pedi dos tacos de carnita y uno…read moreal pastor, ambos deliciosos. Las salsas igual de ricas y no se diga la tortilla hecha a mano frescas El servicio super rápido. Cuando llegamos había línea pero no tardamos mas de 10 minutos en ordenar y recibir la comida. Ambiente tranquilo se ve que es un lugar popular porque había mucha gente. 10/10 lo recomiendo 100% si estas buscando donde comer carnitas frescas y deliciosas con servicio rápido.
