    Chicken taco with beans, cilantro, and limes
    Jeannette A.

    Great small-scale spot in the back of La Rosita. My dad used to bring us here as kids for cheap, authentic, delicious tacos. So I am keeping up tradition and brought my daughter and gf. Got 1- Carnitas taco and 1- Carnitas (Both American style). Both were delicious. Great amount of meat on both. Carnitas was very juicy and tender with good flavor. Like how chopped the steak is. I feel like it makes a huge difference so you get very few, if not any chewy pieces.!! Good call. My daughter got the chicken taco with beans, cilantro, and limes. Tried a bite and was surprised how juicy and good the flavor was. Next time I'll get one of those. Rice didn't have much flavor. Beans were decent, light in color

    a can of corned beef
    Cj D.

    I came here hoping to find some fresh fish, no luck but I probably just didn't see it. Anyways, this review's sole purpose is just to vent how annoyed I am about being charged $2 more for some corned beef that was on sale. I know it's partly my fault for not checking my receipt right away especially after seeing Clerk 067 struggling with scanning it, but normally aren't you supposed to ask the customers too just to confirm the price and not select the highest price of corned beef? I didn't even wanna pay more than $4 for Prego, what makes you think I wanna pay over $6 bucks for corned when I could've gotten a better brand. I could be wrong on this and the product was just priced/placed wrong coz I've noticed that on some other products too. Not sure if i'll be back here again, but if I do it's probably to go to the bakery or try the Taqueria and I'll definitely have to check my receipt at the store! Lol

    If your "taco kit" doesn't look like this, you're at the wrong place.

    You know you're tacos are going to be good when a Mexican grocery store has a taqueria inside! Best place to go to in Glendale Heights and surrounding areas. This is a quick, pick up and go spot when you're in the mood for tacos! They have variety of tacos: Al Pastor, Asada, Chorizo, Chicharrón (green/red salsa), Tripa (upon request, not on their actual menu), Barbacoa & Cecina (weekends only), Chile Relleno. I think I may have left out a few. I was in and out in about 5-10 mins. They work fast! They have the option to sit down and eat your food. Perhaps that's an option if you're grocery shopping. They have more than tacos. They also do large orders on rice and beans. My wife and I have done that. I'm sure they can do large orders on other things. The best tacos I have found have usually been from a Mexican grocery store! There's a big movement out there for gourmet tacos and to escalate Mexican food. However, if you're looking for the real deal without breaking the bank, this is the place to go! Portions on the tacos are generous and they double up on tortillas. You'll not be disappointed. Check it out and judge for yourself.

    all time favorite of taco in this area recommended it's open at 9 am no need to wait till 11 am at all

    Tacos (two chicken and one al pastor). They do not skimp on the fillings.

    If there is a better value taqueria in the area, I have yet to find it. This gem is tucked in toward the back of the store (after you make the first turn past the produce). The food here is authentic and delicious. They generously fill each taco, which means that two or three will satisfy your hunger for a long while. They serve cebollitas and grilled pickled jalapenos to complement your order. I really can't think of any flaws with the execution here. Very impressive. Two other things - they do offer chicharrones in the sheet format here, though they don't seem to be a great value as compared to places like Carnitas Uruapan in Pilsen. Also, they have an excellent Mexican bakery at the front of the store, with an exceptional selection of treats. Grab a tray and a set of tongs, and go crazy. You'll pay at the register in the bakery department - and not much either!

    This grocery store always has gud prices & the Taqueria is really gud. Now has a La Michoacana location inside!

    Cake I ordered

    I have been very disappointed with their bakery! I ordered a cake for my granddaughters baptism and when I went to pick it up they hadn't even started to make it. I vowed I would not go back but my daughter wanted a tres leches cake and theirs is the best. However, the design I ordered is nothing like what I ordered. Taste was great though.

    Taco de Al Pastor

    If you find yourself grocery shopping at La Rosita, you must pay a visit to their taqueria. The tacos are so full you can make 2 out of 1. Tried the asada, al pastor, and chicharron. All were good. Next time I'll have to try the lengua and barbacoa.

    La Rosita tacos!

    Been coming for years. Authentic Mexican food. Reminds me of Jalisco Guadalajara. So rich in flavor. The best carnitas ever.

    This off-the-beaten path oasis is tucked in near Army Trail Rd and Gary does a lot of takeout. So…read morethe dining room is comfortable and quiet on an early Saturday night anyway. Multiple TVs, mounted above order counter, are playing with sound and captions off. Chips and a very mild salsa kicked off our in-house experience. Flavors were unique (for example their salsa verde was cream or mayo based). Ordered their $18 namesake burrito with steak and it was two meals. Waitress brought me chicken instead. Meat was tender and well seasoned. I didn't enjoy the refried beans. The rice had a good sprinkling of peas. Guacamole, sour cream and diced tomatoes were striped across shredded iceberg lettuce. Tall red tumbler of Horchata $4. Will return to try other menu offerings. Look for their daily specials and their daylong lunch offerings!

    I had always driven by this place and have been curious about the food, but never saw it busy so…read morepassed on by. Today while in the area my wife and I decided to be adventurous and stop by. I was pleasantly surprised with our experience. They offered free chips and salsa, and also had lunch specials which is always good. The girl at the front had us sit down and brought us menus and the chips and salsa. Steak in the tacos/burritos was tasty although a little dry (which i chalk up to coming after the lunch period at 130p). I really want to come back earlier in the day while everything is fresher! But that being said was happy with the food and it was reasonably priced and the serving sizes were very good. The place had a good flow to it with your standard pictures and seating (chairs vs booths which is another plus). I definitely plan on coming back next time I am in the area.

    My husband and I work from home. Good Tequilas is located maybe 7 minutes from our home so we go…read morequite often on n our lunch break. The host/server there, a male, is quite nice. The place is very quiet, just some soft Mexican instrumental music playing in the aground. Good Tequilas is quite large, although we rarely see anybody there right when they open (Monday and Tuesday they open at 3).. At least for women (so I imagine for men as well) and they offer Disabled parking and have a ramp at the entrance. The food, well, if you eat meat it's great. If you are a vegan, not so much. First of all they were deceptive and dishonest for many years. Most vegetarians would not think to ask like me Hindu (vegan), but the rice and beans were prepared with chicken paste. I mean, they could have been sued if I made a big deal out of.it. So anyway, the host/server today told me that they no longer use chicken paste in their rice and beans, they are pure vegan.. So I ordered a rice, beans and guacamole. The guacamole there is quite good. I tried a bite of the rice and beans, discreetly spit it out in my napkins. I tried a bit of rice and discreetly spit it out in my napkin. I just ate my same order as always fot many years, chips are salsa are complimentary. I hate salsa. It is not just Good Tequilas salsa, I just refuse to put salsa in my mouth. Chips and guacamole thums up. So today, with the inedible rice and beans, my check came out to $14. That's on me, as I ordered the plate of now vegan rice and beans. My American husband loves the place, and so do I if I stick to free chips and guacamole.

    We thought this place was okay…read more Very pretty interior. Good waiter! Decent food. Decent frozen margarita. Flan was not good. I don't think it was even flan. Would give it a try again for decent chips and salsa, perhaps.
