    What a gem of a place! Clean, friendly, and the food is amazing delicious! Carne Asada steak tacos with rice and beans absolutely the best for less than $10.0 Thanks for the wonderful experience. Keep up the great flavors Viva La Race! Ron G

    Drunk finna get tacos. Let's see whats to it. Will update. Update: they decent. Doing the job but will I make a whole move to come back for these? Nah. The people was nice tho! Update part two: the chicken taco I had when I got home tho? Fye. The chicken alone is worth the trip. Sometimes some places have good steak and not so great chicken, vice versa. This is one of em. Whatever you do, get chicken not steak.

    Taco Asada & Al Pastor Taco

    While driving down W Cermak Rd towards Western Ave I spotted Raymond's Tacos off to my right hand side. I am one that loves to bookmark any restaurant I come across when I get the chance, so I pulled in the nearest parking lot to bookmark it as well as take a look at their menu. Craving taco asada at the time, I have to say that it was a picture of the al pastor taco shared by Yelper - Diana J that really built that interest to visit the day of my discovery. If not for the plain, yet eye-catching orange banner with Raymond's Tacos listed on it, I would have driven right passed this restaurant. Options for parking are street parking w/ meter or within the neighborhood. With neighborhood parking I recommend being cautious of where you park because some portions of the street require a permit to park. Parking outside of the restaurant there is metered parking available for like one vehicle depending on its size. The rest of the space is part of the bus stop (Cermak & Washtenaw), a tow zone for vehicles other than a bus. I almost went for a spot within the neighborhood because parking along W Cermak Rd within a short radius of the restaurant is frustrating. But I remembered a time I got a ticket for parking on a street requiring a permit which gave me the courage to go for a spot along W Cermak Rd. Though Pan American Bank, the bank next door has a spacious yet empty parking lot, I would not recommend parking in it because there just may be someone waiting to make that call for your vehicle to be towed. For covid 19 precautions, wearing a mask is required to enter. Dine-in is prohibited, but there is the option for ordering takeout like the majority of the restaurants throughout the city. With dine-in being prohibited, there were no seats or tables in their dining area. And furthermore, there is a plastic shield that prevents employee to customer contact. As for my order I ordered a taco asada and a al pastor taco w/ a squirt which I already had in mind before I stepped foot in the door. My order was completed within a reasonable timeframe. Thank goodness because I kept checking on my vehicle because I parked alongside the bank on W Cermak Rd. Nowhere near a meter, I kept thinking that I would get a ticket or maybe a boot on my tire because I did not purchase a parking ticket for my brief visit. Those damn tacos smelled so good! I just wanted to pull over or in a parking lot and just devour them both, but for the goodness of Yelp, I just had to get a quality picture of my order to share. Comparing the two tacos, I have to say that I loved the taco asada which had a more flavorsome taste to it in comparison to the al pastor taco, but both did not disappoint. All in all, a pleasant ordering experience with Raymond's Tacos. I most definitely would not hesitate on visiting again while in the Little Village area. I have also noted another location near my neighborhood that sits a little over a mile away. ~Blessing~ Thomas G

    This is actually Raymond's Tacos and Hamburgers #1; #2 is the one on Blue Island. I was here with a friend today and we both got some tacos and double cheeseburgers. The taco shells were a tad on the greasy side, but the char grilled steak was perfection! The cheeseburgers were excellent as well. This place tends to be a little too small for comfort - there's a counter and four booths. We were lucky that we managed to get a booth just as a customer was about to leave. Service was good given the crowd size and the number of employees working. The one critique I have is regarding their beverage sizes - there seems to only be one size if you get the lemonade, fruit punch, or horchata, which seems to be somewhere between a small and a medium. You will get thirsty, so plan on ordering more beverages as your meal progresses. If you're in the neighborhood, definitely check this place out - but plan on getting your food to go on the weekends. EDIT 2/22: I stopped by here and it was a busy Friday night for them... I had to wait more than fifteen minutes for my order (there were several large orders including one guy who ordered 20 tacos for 'taco night'); still, they were efficient and moved as quickly as they could. Their hours are from 8AM to 12AM.

    This was my second visit to The Dearborn, and the food and service were both on point. We ordered…read morethe salmon tataki, fish and chips, Wellington burger, and Midwest fried chicken. Everything was well prepared, but the fried chicken was the standout, especially with the hot sauce adding another level of flavor. The staff stayed attentive throughout dinner and even replaced our plates between rounds, which was a level of service I wasn't expecting. I also respected seeing the owner personally making the rounds, stopping at every table to check on the guests and the food. Calm atmosphere, solid hospitality, and a kitchen that delivers.

    OMG! Walk, run, sprint here to get the FISH N CHIPS THAT ACTUALLY BEAT BOBBY FLAY. The executive…read morechef and now chef partner, Aaron Cuschieri, is absolutely amazingly talented. I am used to really good fish and chips... I've never had better fish and chips than Tom Douglas's Mr. Fish in Seattle, UNTIL NOW!!!! Wow, wow wow wow! Do not pass GO, do not read the menu, just order the darn fish and chips! It might be a whole heart attack on a plate... But it doesn't matter... You can walk all of Chicago and burn it off. I decided to work out before I came here for this big splurge and I'm so glad I did. I can see that this is the theater district... And you could come here before a show fish and chips and have the best night of your entire life! I can't wait to try more of this chef's food! I'm BEYOND INSPIRED! ps great beers here toooooi!
