    Nothing fancy or complicated, just authentic Mexican flavors, but kicked up a few notches in quality.
    John B.

    We loved the food, the friendly people, and the casual atmosphere, which feels like you're on a taco crawl in Chicago - without leaving the 'burbs. We had the pastor-marinated (al pastor) pork, chicken tinga, beef birria, and hongos (mushrooms) tacos and got to sample the asada steak - along with the elote (street corn) salad, guacamole, and a variety of salsas (wow!). The beef, chicken, mushrooms, pork, and steak filling in our tacos are completely different in taste, seasoning, and texture. The spice level is just right for us, with a nice kick, but without burning our taste buds. Our corn tortillas were freshly fried and warm, with just the right soft-crispy texture - they crunch, but don't fall apart, when you bite into the taco! And the portions are generous - more filling than tortilla, which I think is a nod to American expectations. The salsas are not just your average accompaniment, but are as unique and given the same attention as the tacos. Each of the three salsas we tried had differently prepared chiles as the base and ranged from a milder, creamy jalapeno salsa to a hotter red salsa with a secret ingredient. We heard there was a fourth salsa that is hotter than the three we tried. Like the salsas, the elote is not just an add-on, but a must-order dish for whenever you need a refreshing, cool, creamy, and sweet balancing bite between the savory and spicy bites of the tacos. Note to local businesses and families: They have a separate dining room that's perfect for small parties and team gatherings.

    Good food but you only stay open till 7, seriously? No self respecting Mexican eatery closes so early. Clearly not authentic.

    Outstanding. I had the carne asada burrito and shredded beef quesadilla. I liked the shredded beef a bit better.

    Do you do street corn?

    We do an Elote’ salad. Flavored with Parmesan, Queso Fresca, and a chipotle mayo.

    Is this dine-in or carry out only?

    This was not Mexican food. It's watered down Mexican for white North Shore. Saturday night it…read morewasn't even that busy and they were out of a specialty margarita and we're unapologetic about it. Our waiter could not have been less attentive or more unbothered about anything. The salsas they brought out were completely tasteless with their stale chips. I ordered the crab ceviche, whatever you do, do not order this. It is completely without taste or texture or anything. When I asked him what the skinny ceviche was, he said shrimp and that's it. He didn't give me any other description. The queso fundito was half melted, so not that good. Plus, it came out before our drinks even got to the table. I had to wave at our waiter to ask for another round, he could see I wasn't eating my ceviche and said not a word. I can't believe this place even has three stars. I can't believe people in Winnetka even eat here. It was so bad. i'm getting two stars because my husband had enchiladas con mole, which it wasn't even on the menu, and it was pretty good. The beans and rice, on the other hand, horrible.

    This place was good, but lacking a little flavor. It was also pricier than it should be for the…read moreportion and taste you get. Our server was nice, and the chips were all right, but I don't think I'll come back here again. Parking is either street parking or behind the building in a garage.

My personal favorite is the crispy camarones (shrimp), the combination of all the ingredients create this happy harmonious taco. Truly my favorite taco ever. I also like the chicken taco salad. Fresh high quality ingredients. A bit pricy, but worth every penny. Service is good. As busy as they can get, they are efficient. Everything is made to order.

    I ate here four times over two weekends (yes, four!) this summer--I was so hooked on these tacos…read morethat I only checked in once. That should tell you everything you need to know. Oh, you need more? Okay... The tacos are worth your time if you're close by. You walk in and there is a menu on the wall and you order at the counter. They're fresh and satisfying with a side of salsa that's the perfect partner to give you that flavor boost you might be missing. And let's not forget the real Coca-Cola in glass bottles--nothing like it to feel like you're living your best taco life. That said, expect to pay a pretty penny for your tacos. The portions aren't as generous as they could be, and the flavor didn't exactly pop but for now living off their laurels and minimal competition makes Taco Nano the tops for this neighborhood. As for the dining area? It's basic--no bells or whistles. You'll see no-frills booths and a few tables. It's not much, but hey, it's all about the tacos here, right?
