Ino's Tacos

Was visiting some friends in the McKinley neighborhood and Inos was recommended.  The BEST fish tacos I have ever had!  Thick and fresh tilapia fillets seared with just the right amount of spices.  If only I lived in Chicago I'd be eating there every week!  Oh and with a bowl of chips and huge bowl of pico de gallo all came to under $6.00!

The sign outside says, "Authentic Mexican Food."  The only thing that's authentic is the food poisoning that my wife and I experienced from this place.   I should have known better...I've lived within walking distance to Ino's for a long time but have rarely gone there because I've known that the food is terrible since I was a kid.  However, Friday at 1 in the morning, I was hungry and desperation set in.  I found myself at Ino's ordering the steak nachos.  I knew better than to expect the food to be good and it wasn't.  However, I did not expect the 2 days of stomach issues that we experienced from splitting one order of nachos.  The people who give this place positive reviews fall into two categories: Category A. They are thankful to find any place that would serve them a burrito at 1 in the morning.  Category B.  The old faithfuls who had their first taste of Mexican food at Ino's and refuse to try any of the other nearby places that are significantly better.  Many Category B. people are nostalgic about their experiences from when they were Category A. people.  Sorry Ino's.  I know you're a neighborhood stalwart and you have your supporters, but your food is worse than Taco Bell and it literally makes me sick.

Food was cold!!! The guacamole seems taken out right from the fridge and put in my torta . It made my torta freaking cold and nasty. I want a good service and a warm torta!

btw , the horchata is good. and that's the only thing i like abt it.
