Step into Traspasada Restaurant, a hidden gem tucked away in the Avondale neighborhood, and discover a haven where every meal transforms into a jubilant celebration. The ambiance is an irresistible blend of cozy comfort and vibrant energy, setting the stage for an unforgettable dining experience creating the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable dining experience. I couldn't resist answering the tempting call of their luscious Jamaica, a velvety elixir that orchestrates a delightful harmony of spices, teasing the palate for the flavors yet to unfold. The true stars of this culinary show? The tacos. Both the asada and cabeza varieties were an explosion of flavor! These four tacos, juicy and bursting with tantalizing tastes, proved to be a culinary masterpiece. The asada was a delightful balance of tenderness and with its tender balance and kissed-by-flames char, while the cabeza offered a luxurious, melt-in-your-mouth journey. Freshly made tortillas cradled these savory delights, making each bite a comforting experience of savory goodness! Traspasada isn't just a restaurant; it's an odyssey, a destination inviting both locals and wanderers. For anyone seeking genuine, mouth watering Mexican cuisine within an embrace of welcoming and vibrant vibes, it's an experience worth savoring. And count me in for a return trip. It's absolutely worth it!

I ordered the 3 taco dinner and 3 tacos.The service was great. Once we sat down we were immediately greeted and handed chips and salsa. The salsa is somewhat on the spicy side so be careful! The food was so fresh. It came out within 10 minutes after we placed the order. Everything was hot and fresh and flavorful. Nothing was dry, the steak was tender and juicy. I'll definitely be returning here if I am in the area!

Bomb tacos filled pretty well. The guacamole is tasty too. They have drinks here as well. Beer, and looks like pre mixed margaritas. The dining room is large, with tons of windows. Don't park next door in the supermarket though, you will get towed.

Soooo glad this place is still here!!! First tried it back in the late '00s and loved it: the special house salsa negra is amazing!Nice to see that they have a cozy little dining room before: used to be a typical hole in the wall taqueria.Great and attentive service, though it wasn't clear if I should order at the counter or the table?Don't overlook haha

I have driven past this place a few times and was intrigued by the "black salsa" sign. Tonight was the night to try this place! First of all, this place is much cleaner than I expected. It looks like this place is mostly carry out, but have a nice number of tables. You get the famous black salsa for free along with some tasty tomato noodle soup. Nice start! I was mixed on the salsa, but liked that it was different than most. It's very smoky with some heat. We also got guacamole which we had to add more salt and spice which was fine, but it was fresh and colorful. We also got margaritas (strawberry and peach). I thought they were ok, but I appreciate trying different flavors. I went with the taco dinner with carne asada. I had a high bar, but thought it was good, but not great. I thought it was a little greasy, but the meat was cut perfectly. It was also a pretty fair price so I liked them. My dad got tamales which he loved. My mom got elotes which was probably the best dish. My dad isn't a big spice fan so he appreciated being able to add his own spice to his dish. The service was surprisingly good. Nice and fast too! We will be back with the whole family soon!

Exceptional service and food! I ordered the 3 tacos dinner with al pastor, chorizo, and carne asada tacos and it comes with rice and beans. I also had the most refreshing horchata drink - highly recommend. The service was 10/10 throughout and our server was extremely kind and prompt. Definitely coming back for my taco fix here!

The staff here is so nice and I think is the only Mexican joint I've ever been to that offers complimentary soup. It was incredibly heartwarming especially during winter in Chicago. The black salsa is what drew me to try this place and it was definitely a tasty treat! I ended up ordering the 3 taco dinner and got to try a variety of their meats including steak, lengua and fried tripe. All of them were excellent. Parking in the area is easy and some streets are FREE! Horchata here is also awesome - not too sweet!

Wow, food was so good! Stopped in for dinner. They provided chips /salsa & a soup -- all were delicious! Then we ordered burrito & tamales to share. Burrito was amazing - meat was super crispy. Enjoyed the tamales too. I would skip the drinks - margarita / sangria were average & had a little bit too much flavor to it. Service was quick despite a lot of people being in the restaurant Would def come back for the food!

the quality keeps falling and the prices keeps rising.There was a time this was one of the best go to spots. The ambiance is still good. But over the years the prices have been going up and the service and quality has been getting bad. Might as well stop by Carniceria Guanajuato next door and pick up a better burrito or taco.
