La Taquiza Winnetka

food is always fresh and delicious. service is always friendly and quick. As a realtor in the northshore, this place is a go to for lunch and dinner with clients. So conveniently located in the laundry building which also has starbucks and my office!

Average. I was excited to try la Taquiza as it has good reviews and is in an affluent area of Chicago. But it wasn't enjoyable. The menu was average. The meat was delicious and flavorful. However, the tortillas were tough and poor quality (a standard issue in Chicago) and I had to take the cilantro and onion from my tacos because it was not fresh! I tried the red salsa, and it was good but nothing different. La taquiza had all the Mexican soft drinks like coca-cola and jarritos. It also had specials for every day of the week. But nothing wow to make me come back. Suggestion: use “Mi Rancho” tortillas. The best quality I found so far, or better yet, make the tortillas from scratch, no maseca.

Great addition to Winnetka, fair prices, great food, wonderful staff. The chicken tortilla soup has ruined my ability to order it at other places, best $4 you'll spend in the area. Vegetarian options: All dishes can be made with fajitas or another vegetarian dish. Kid-friendliness: Always kids here enjoying themselves. Parking: Massive public parking area one block south if the street is taken up. Dietary restrictions: You can add or subtract from most menu items.
