Reviews & Tips

  I have such fond memories of eating at los comales after concerts or bars  late at night after i was drunk and needed something hot and greasy to snack on, that said ,unless you meet the above mentioned criteria i would skip this joint. Yes it is affordable but so is crack and you wouldn't smoke  that just because its cheap would u? there are many better taquerias than this I really don't see the big deal the one dish I would recommend here is the Carne en su jugo it's like a cousin  to pozole with beef beans onion bacon cilantro in a broth  the one thing they do right at this place

  A nice local gem of sorts, with freshly prepared and tasty Mexican dishes.  This place also has table service combined with a drive through window - somewhat unique.  I had a tasty pork and onion torta for $5.99 and a nice beef tripe soft taco with cilantro, for just $1.49.  My colleague had soft steak tacos with cheese and sour cream added.  Clean interior.  The servings are slightly smallish, but more than made up for in freshness and quality.  Everyone there at the time, except us, was Hispanic (good sign!).  Will be back for sure.  Cash only.

  Yea, these tacos should actually be 99 cents, for it's size.  It's like half a real taco.  Other than that, you can always snag a booth/table at this location even at 3am.  Have yourself a strawberry milkshake and a cheese flan for dessert!
  
  There's Drive-thru too!

  $1.40 for a taco?  count me in.....this little place just south of Chicago Ave was reccomended by some friends, so in the area we thought we would give it a shot......
  nothing fancy, just a basic taco joint....
  
  ordering 2 carne asada and 2 al pastor tacos, we were asked if we want everything on them....whats everything we ask.... * onions and cilantro*   ,,,,,, yah everything :-)
  
  perfectly soft corn tortillas loaded with grilled chopped steak, very tender and went well with the salsa verde...
  
  the al pastor came the same way, loaded with meat  :-)  good on its own but the red salsa kicked it up a bit
  
  served with thin sliced pickled carrots and grilled green onions...a nice touch...
  
  2 people....4 tacos....2 drinks and under $8.00  .... i like that kind of deal.....i wish i lived closer but maybe now i have more reasons to get on over to East Chicago....maybe even check out the new Strack an Van Tils just up the street,,,,i will be back
