Chicago Taco Authority

5/5 on tacos! Shrimp taco -- super seasoned Fish tacoChicken tenga -- bit of a kick, like the potato sticks toppingAl pastor taco -- all the veg/herbs were on one halfSuper nice staff helped me with my order but I forgot that to mention that I cannot eat spicy!

Food: fresh, made to order, super friendly team members. The chicken taco is the best one I have had. Juicy and caught me by surprise.Service: quick, clean and attentive. They remembered me after a couple times coming back.Only minus thing is street parking, can be hard to find around rush hours.Overall: 5/5, highly recommended.

Came here for a quick lunch with a big group of ~10 people. They have an extensive selection of menus and serving speed was quick! We ordered taco salads, tacos, and waffle fries. We also tried their horchata (rice water) which was their homemade drink and it was pretty delicious. The store was overall small but each table would still get sufficient space. They were very generous with the food portions! We had to take the remaining to go. Friendly staff. If you are craving for some tacos, this is the place to go!

Flavorful food in comparison to other taco spots in the area but not worth the inflated price via delivery services! $7 for a teaspoon of ingredients and burnt onions throughout the Al Pastor. No salsa included despite making the selection with each item. Perhaps it's a better experience in the restaurant. Wanted to love this place but I'll pass...

I love this place - I can tell it's a neighborhood staple. Always a pretty calm vibe in there even when they're busy. The staff are awesome and kind, and the food is amazing!! The al pastor taco with pineapple completely changed my view on al pastor tacos. I get it every time I go. Their cotija truffle waffle fries are also incredible. And it's CTA themed - so cool

Cool location, but mid-level food. My wife ordered a few tacos and I had the burrito that's listed as their most popular item. The food was fresh and cooked well, but the flavor wasn't inspiring. My wife's tacos were covered with an aioli that was a bit too spicy. My burrito was simultaneously bland and also occasionally too spicy. My wife and I both love spicy food, so it wasn't a matter of our palates being off. That being said, the place is decent if you're looking for something quick and convenient. However, it's not something to go out of the way for.

Whenever me and my partner visit, the first stop is Chicago Taco Authority! The tacos are delicious, and you need to try all the salsas / sauces at least once. Our personal favorite is the Chicken Tinga taco with a side (or 2) of the Chipotle Adobo sauce. Can't miss with the Classic Steak tacos either. You will be missing out if you don't try this spot - 10/10 recommend!

My son and I just had lunch. I had a fish taco, shrimp taco and carne asada taco, all were excellent. My son had 2 carne asada taco's, also excellent. First time having Jaritos (mandarin), another new favorite.

10/10 recommend CTA.Pozole - soooo goood and i can't wait to heat it up to finish it tonight. Tinga - omggg so good! I wish I got 2!! Pastor - also good. They have a great mural outside AND inside, so many gifts that support other local shops, and the staff were so so nice and spoke in Spanish with me. The owner threw in a house made flan on the house for us. It's PERFECT. Get the flan.

It was my first time trying food here today and would def come back. I only got to try a couple tacos but everything tasted great so far. Glad to see this place in my neighborhood.Ambiance was great! Had a quick chat with the owner and staff was friendly too.
