Stopped by for lunch and was satisfied with what I received. Â Had the taco dinner ($7.95) which was 3 tacos accompanied with rice and beans. Â Meat was tasty, slightly on the dry side and rice and beans were typical, but nothing special. Â Chips didn't seem to be made inn house , but salsa did. Â Also, two homemade hot sauce options on table (red & green). Â Tried one of the huaraches with the pastor...this was excellent.
Service was great and food came quick. Â All in all I was happy and will be back. Â Definitely recommend the pastor, next time I will try a specialty dish.
Excellent family owned Taqueria. Â Warm homemade salsa and fresh chips to start things off. Â Good heat on the salsa which lingers until the food comes. Â Got the Conchita Pibil tacos, roasted pork and pickled onions, were great. Â The owner/cook, stopped by the table and gave me a free sample of the Al Pastor, saying that if I liked the Pibil, I should also try the Pastor. Â It was great also. Â Also had the Frijole Charro (bean soup). Â My wife had Tostadas with Chorizo and Carne Asada. Â She loved it. Â Pleasant staff and a nice homey location. Â I have been there twice and its my go to place for great Taqueria style eats.
Review Source:I went here tonight and this place is great!!!! Â We started off with chips and salsa, which was very good then we had guacamole that was made fresh and we added jalapenos and onions and it was absolutely incredible! Â I had the enchiladas and all I can say is WOW! Â So good! Â
This place was cheap too so worth more than what I paid. Â I would definitely go back here it is so much better than other places I've been. Â Definitely give it a try.
Liked that they offered regional specialties that I haven't seen in that many taquerias. Â The conchinita pibil, was one of them, which is a type of shredded spiced pork that I got in some tacos and tried some cabeza tacos while there. Â
Hate to say this, but I was let down by both.  The conchinita pibil and cabeza meat texture were kinda soggy and lacked flavor.  I did like the red onions what were with the conchinita pibil, which gave it a hot/sweet flavor.  Also ordered a pork burrito, which was better than the tacos.  Good combination of all the ingredients, solid!  Jamaica  (drink made with a hibiscus tea leaves) was pretty good as well.  People there were really nice as well!
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!
This place is down-home, family owned, authentic, FRESH Mexican food.
You can get a beef head taco here! Â If that doesn't make you want to try it, then you don't get it
To Mike B. who said the food is a little pricey: Â compared to what? Â This place is cheap. Â Maybe the best restaurant value I've ever seen. Â I think tacos are $1.50 each. Â You can easily eat here for $5, and eat like a king for $10-15.
To JR M. who said he needed a suit and tie: Â I can only assume you were writing in jest. Â This place is as casual as any restaurant you will find. Â The only attire they require is shirt and shoes.
Try it.
I've been to dozens of hole-in-the-wall taquerias in Chicago over many years, and the menu and quality is always the same, so I was totally surprised to see some dishes on the menu here I'd never even heard of!
I tried the Conchinita Pibil... oh man was it good, juicy pork with pink marinated onions and just the right level of spiciness. I don't go to Aurora much, but I'm definitely going to try to track that down in Chicago, I'm sure it's around. There was another dish, the name escapes me, but sort of like a sope, but soggier and bigger, with marinated beef. Good stuff.
Only negative thing I can think of to say: I'd love to see places like this try something new with rice and beans, they were both good but nothing special.
It's not fancy or anything, but the service was really great, and the prices were totally fair.
If you are a fan of good Mexican food and do not care about decor this is a good place to go. It is just a hole-in-the-wall Taqueria with good food. Five of us went there and the service was pretty good and the food was real good. The salsa was top notch. We had tacos, enchiladas, burritos, and a couple of steak dishes. The breaded steak was wonderful. I wish that they had fountain pop instead of only canned but that isn't that big of a deal. We all had fun, had good food, and we will go back.
Review Source:In 5 years, I have tried most of what's on the menu. You can't be disappointed here. Â All the food is fabulous, the service is always friendly and fast. Â Counter-style grill so you can see the cooks at work. Â Salsa and chips are off the hook! Guacamole is well seasoned with loads of fresh tomatos and cilantro. For a cheaper option, try a few tacos or a torta. Â Hungrier? Â Try one of the great dinners. Â All dinners under $15.00 even the shrimp. If you think the salsa is addictive, I'm gonna need a 12 step program to get me to quit the flame grilled beef.
Review Source:Great steak tacos, tostadas, burritos, and chips/salsa! The food is a little pricey, but not too bad relative to the quality of food. The location is the only down side, as it's very difficult to find the place, and then get in and out of the parking lot. Â A wonderful family run business with other locations in the area.
Review Source:I visited Taqueria Muniz for lunch the first time yesterday and it was definitely an enjoyable experience. The food is extremely authentic and fresh, and the chips and salsa are very good (although, unlike most Mexican restaurants, they charge $1.50 for the chips and salsa). The restaurant is very clean, and the staff is very polite and welcoming. Just keep your eyes peeled when trying to find this place because it doesn't stand out very easily from the street.
Review Source:Taqueria is a great family owned Mexican restaurant that I've frequented for the last 4 years. Â All salsa's are made fresh by the owner's wife and the quality of the ingrediants are very good. Â I recommend the steak dinner, tons of food and really high quality, well seasoned steak. Â Chips and salsa are addictive here and I usually find myself with a spread of 4 different types of salsa. Â
2 tacos and chips/salsa run about $6.00 since they recently started charging $1.50 for chips and salsa.
Just a heads up, they are closed on Mondays.
I went in there with my homeboy Ray and they wouldn't let me in because I didn't have a suit and tie on! Â I mean that is bogus! Â What? Â I can't have tacos without a suit and tie on? Â We entually went to the thrift store and purchased a $3 suit and $.50 tie! Â The tacos were off the hook. YESSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
