Mary’s Taqueria

I pulled up to a corner house with is a small grocery store and a restaurant in the back. The wall menu is limited so u have to ask for one to see everything on the menu. Service was normal I would recommend taking it to go the inside of the place looks outdated and a lil dirty lol but the steak tacos were amazing. Sauce was good carrots were on point but u have to pay extra for them. The tacos were real small but were the best thing they had. Chips were over fried. I had a burrito with extra steak I think they forgot or maybe they don’t add that much.

Whoa! Talk about a hidden gem!
Just get Al pastor ANYTHING and FISH TACOS. Enough said. They warm the corn tortillas for the tacos and the bread for the torta is fluffy and soft, yet crispy on the outside. SUPER NOM. Horchata is decent, not too sweet.
Sad face that they charge for salsa and chips, but make sure to ask for the sauces when your food arrives! I asked for «hot sauce» and they brought me the red and green squirt bottles :). We also opted for cheese fries instead too :)
Drooling thinking about them tacos again… will be back!

Moderately a good priced eat. Location is excellent. Quality of meats was pleasantly good to the palate. Preparation time was very good.

Just delicious! Yes it’s in a neighborhood shop but we couldn’t have been more impressed!

This place is a great little find. Authentic, divey, and reasonably priced. I really enjoy the mom and pop atmosphere here.
Had the guacamole and chips, huevos ranchero with corn tortillas and my wife had the beef plate with rice and beans. Everything was prepared quickly and the place was friendly. There’s plenty of free parking on the street. I’m a fan.

I passed by this place numerous times and though it was a grocery store. Then I read some Unilocal reviews and gave it a try. AMAZING!!! The steak tacos were great! The avocado hot sauce is awesome! The guac was fantastic. It’s not a fancy restaurant but the food is great! Sorry no picture, I was hungry :-)

I love this place. The avocado hot sauce and their shrimp tacos are my favorite. They are also flexible with their menu. They are friendly and you just feel good buying something here to support local business. I moved up to Andersonville and I have yet to find a good competitor. No place like this!

Love this spot. One of my goto locations. I do notice that the prices are creeping up but hopefully the quality will also. Be sure to check your order before leaving because they always forget something small (the extra toppings you paid for and sides).

I lived in Mexico for two years. These are legit tacos and a greatst atmosphere. Would def go back. Q rico!

Awesome flavor. Had the steak burrito and it was a great size and packed a lot of taste.

I work right around the corner from Mary’s and I couldn’t be happier about it. I am in here several times a week always trying new things and I have yet to be let down. Asada burrito, bomb. Pastor tacos, superb. Chunky salsa, on point. Really well priced, the staff are always extremely polite, and they always get the order right. If you’re debating eating here, just pull the trigger and do it.

Looks like they let their success get the best of them. The last times (yes, times) I went, they provided an underwhelming experience. My horchata was watered down and was tasteless. Chips and Salsa were no longer complimentary. Prices of their food went up by a dollar or as much as a dollar fifty. Needless to say, they lost a customer.

I was underwhelmed by the food and in shock over the prices. The food was just okay, I had an al pastor taco, steak quesadilla, guacamole & chips and nothing stood out with exception of the guacamole (darn good) AND that it’s some of the priciest Mexican food in Pilsen. EVERYTHING was an extra charge: chips & salsa, the pickled carrots + cauliflower. With the other options in the neighborhood that have a better tasting product + free chips& salsa +free app (Nuevo Leon) it just seems like a no-​brainer for me.

Located inside what looks like a convenient store. Definitely a go-​to taco hidden gem spot. Lengua taco all the way!

I really love the food here. However, the chips aren’t free anymore nor the sauces. We really enjoyed the free chips before when they were always fresh. The last time I came here and paid for the chips, it was really stale. We asked for a fresh batch but they said no.

Wow, what a difference a year makes. Within a year, they raised their taco dinner price from $ 5.99 to $ 7.99. (A burrito bowl for $ 6.95 from Chipotle could have filled me up more than this taco dinner.) The price for each taco went up $ 0.20 each so I’m not quite sure how they justified a $ 2.00 increase unless rice and beans costs more now on the market. Sadly, their portion size stayed the same. I think the price increase was probably due to their popularity from Unilocal.The blessing and curse that is Unilocal!Arggghh!
I ordered for carry out the taco dinner, guacamole, and a horchata and it was almost $ 15. It seems very expensive to me for Mexican food. If I had ate in the restaurant, it would have probably cost me $ 18 with tip!
The quality of the food seems to have stayed the same except for the horchata. It seemed watered down to me, which should not have been since I ordered the drink with no ice. I really hope they are not adding more water to the drink to try to maximize profits.
On a positive note, they have changed their credit card minimum from $ 10 to $ 5.

Very very good food. The chips with salsa and avocado sauce is good. The avocado sauce is sooooooo delish. I had the 3 tacos and rice and beans. I’m soooooo full. They were all good but the fish taco was the best. This place is definitely a hidden gem as the other reviews stated. I will be back.

Everything is fresh to order. This is a hidden gem. The prices are reasonable. I’ve had the steak burritos. They are pretty big and can easily be considered for 2 meals.
The chips are a bit greasy but ok once in awhile. If you load up the chip with beans and hot sauce it’s a great bite!

Cheap delicious tacos and tortas. It’s sort of in a convenience store, which only adds to the perfection of the vibe here. Theres a few booth seats, but you can also go sit on the curb outside or whatever. Ive had breakfast, and it was just ‘meh’, but their lunch type food is really what I’m usually looking for when I think ‘Mexican’ food.

I have a huge love for tacos, and a great taco place is hard to find. There are many average places that just don’t cut it. When I first step into this place, I had a good feeling about it. There is a little shop in there too and I was just blown away by the quality of the food and the taste. It is delicious, anything you try, my roommates and I live nearby and go there at least once a week or every two weeks. Prices are super economic, better than most places.
I usually have the red sauce chilaquiles, they are so good. Often times I get the chorizo, al pastor and carne asada tacos too. Those are my favorite, I would live off of these tacos if I could.
