Chicago’s Best Taco Restaurants | Eater Chicago

"Fans of tacos al pastor will jump for joy from seeing Lucido’s slightly crispy, adobo-laden, thinly sliced pieces of meat atop a warm tortilla. With the quality of their star menu item, it is no wonder that the eatery, which started as a weekend home-based kitchen, has secured a brick-and-mortar location. Order your al pastor “con todo” which means, with all the garnishes. Make sure you ask for pineapple for that acid, sweet touch. Salsas add a different dimension to the flavors, but you can start by only adding a hint of lime. Eat. Savor. Repeat." - Brenda Storch

Chicago’s Essential Mexican Restaurants

"The stunning quality of Lucidos’s tacos al pastor makes it no wonder that what started as a weekend home-based kitchen has secured a brick-and-mortar location. Lucido’s menu features staples like chilaquiles and sopes and quesadillas and enchiladas. Unlike many typical taquerias which are open primarily during the evening hours, this Little Village restaurant opens in the morning and serves breakfast.  But with al pastor so good, it might be easy to be distracted. To get the full experience, order it “con todo”, meaning, with all the garnishes. Don’t forget to request pieces of grilled pineapple for that perfect sweet and tangy kick (it’s not included with “con todo” here). Experiment with the red and green salsas to add another dimension of flavor or start by squeezing a hint of lime. To fully embrace the taco culture, hold your taco lightly by the middle and lift your pinky finger as the locals do in Mexico City." - Brenda Storch, Eater Staff

By flavor alone, this is in my opinion, the best Al Pastor in town. A bit pricier than competitors. This no frills restaurant served perfectly seasoned Al Pastor any way you can think of: torta, taco, burrito, quesadilla, etc. I only had the Quesadilla Al Pastor, which was generously stuffed with Al Pastor and veggie toppings. The salsa is also elite. Will be returning.

Some of the best Al pastor in the city. Great salsas as well. The toro taco mixes al pastor and spicy chorizo. They also have non alcoholic bebidas preparadas for a very reasonable price.

Authentic Mexican flavors at Lucido's Tacos! Their Al Pastor tacos are my favorite and star of the menu, with tender meat from the rotating trompa and a sweet touch of pineapple. The Taco Toro and Campechano (mixed meat with chorizo) are also fan favorites. Excellent service and delicious food make this spot one of the top taquerias to be visited in Little Village.

The Alpastor here 😚🤌🧡 is perfection This place needs more hype! Honestly, a hidden gem. Everything on their menu is also good, and the presentation is also a 10/10 Had a torta today, and you can tell they made it with love 😂❤️🥰. It's super clean, and theres bathrooms. Don't know what to order. Just order a taco al pastor. Try it 👌

The Al Pastor taco was a hit for me!! I also had the cabeza de res (beef) and puerco(pork) tacos and they did not disappoint the only thing I didn't really like was their taco de arrachera it was too chewy and had a lot of fat on it. Will definitely be returning for some more of the Al Pastor

Bad batch of Pastor. Zero taste and def no Pineapple flavor. Huge miss from homies who suggested the place. Tasted like the leftover batch from the day prior.

Came here for some quick tacos. This place is huge inside. But unfortunately, it was empty when we arrived and stayed empty by the time we were done. The tacos are on the pricier side, but they're damn delicious. I ordered Al Pastor, Tripas and Arrachera tacos. They were all delicious. The al pastor had the perfect marinade and it was tender with a crispy outside. The Arrachera was very flavorful and perfectly cooked. The Tripas could have been crispier, and I would have preferred this taco without cebolla y cilantro. Will definitely be coming back.

Outstanding very nice people, food was very delicious and definitely family owned. Chef came out and said hello to us. Food was delicious. We tried a couple of different items tacos, torta and Quesabirria and can't complain about anything. Salsa was hot or very hot. Pickled onions on the table. Super hot super full of flavor. Try them you love them.

Get the pastor tacos, they are delicious! I also tried the asada taco and it didn't disappoint. My friend got a pastor torta and we both agreed all the other ingredients overpower the pastor flavor. Best if you have it as a taco.

Pastor is excellent with layers of flavors. Tacos de al Pastor are my favorite taco with savory, salty, spicy and sweet.

Lucidos has THE BEST Al pastor in the entire city of Chicago . I've been to a few dozen taco places in Chicago and this is the best of the best Al pastor. On el trompo is a good sign that they'll be delicious. On top of the spit it a whole pineapple which tastes so much better a little bit charred and not too sweet - unlike using canned pineapples as some restaurants do. The service is very friendly and it's a casual ambiance. I will absolutely be back. Love this place.

Was in the neighborhood and decided to check this spot out. I've been hearing and reading great things about this place so I wanted to see for myself. This place did not disappoint! The Al Pastor tacos are some of the best I've had. The meat was very flavorful, and the Tripa tacos were very good and clean too. A good taco always needs a good salsa, and the two salsas I got were very good, the red one had a good kick to it. I'll definitely stop by again next time I'm in the area so I can try other tacos.

Visiting from LA and my co-worker brought us to this wonderful little taco shop. Had the Pastor and Tripas, both were on point. Thank you Rebeca for sharing this place. Highly recommend the tripas, very few places do it right and Lucidos gets it done perfectly.
