Tacos locos has been a taco join I've avoided for a long time. Years ago (8+ years) I had a bad experience and have avoided the place ever since. Today I figured it was time to give another shot and it just goes to show that sometimes you need to try a place again to see if maybe the last time was just a one off like. Tacos Locos is situated in a tiny strip mall. There is parking and it has a surprising amount of inside seating for such a small place. At the register I was greeted by a younger man who promptly took my order and as he was typing the order the cook was watching and already getting the food in the grill. To say the food is quick is an understatement. I got a chicken taco and a...
The service was good, but the food was terrible. I wish I would have taken a picture of it. I ordered a steak tacos Loco and a steak burrito dinner. The taco was so small. It had a strip of meat on it, but it didn't taste like steak. It was more like a piece of a roast. The steak on the burrito was like mush!! It was finer than ground meat. I know some Mexican restaurants put mixed veggies in their rice, but their's was so bland. The refried beans were the only thing good. It came with a small soup. I threw it out because I was so disappointed with the rest of the meal.
I am no longer in the area, but was in the neighborhood so got some Tacos Locos (steak) tacos to go. Unfortunately the steak quality seems to have declined a bit since pre-pandemic. The steak in the Tacos Locos that we got was a bit tough to chew and tasted a bit gamey. I had to drown it in salsa to finish eating them. Also in opposite to my prior experience, the service was very good this time.
We stumbled in this place because Maria's Mexican restaurant on the street had a very long waiting period. We had the Guac, Tacos and Quesadillas. The restaurant was small and more counter-style than Maria's, but the food was good. One of the chefs also started singing while we were here and it was very sweet and funny. You could say he enjoyed working here.

Without a doubt.....the best steak tacos in Chicago.....PERIOD!!! Not all loaded up with cheese and beans and pico de gallo. These babies have steak, sour cream, grilled onions and are addictive!!! Do NOT pass this place up! Anyone from out of town staying in Rosemont, Tacos Locos is a can't miss!
Thanks to the dedication of the crew to run this wonderful dinner every day! The served meals are excellent and representative of authentic Mexican cuisine. Your appetite will be more than satisfied!
Very good food. Waitress was very friendly and we felt right at home. Food was delicious. The flan was excellent. Highly recommend this place.
Same quality taco spot. Prices have gone up a little bit but it’s still very reasonably priced for the quality. Short walk from the hotels.

Pretty good. I think they should expand the menu and make the tacos bigger, but the food is good. I really enjoyed the food and the staff.
Great meal experience. Carlos and crew are doing an excellent job. Very recommended.
