Nothing hits the spot like a plate of tacos, and although there’s no shortage of options, some restaurants serve much better ones than others. Luckily, fellow foodies have each other’s backs by rating their experiences (and the quality of the food) online.
That’s how Eat This, Not That! pinpointed the best tacos in every state. The ultimate food content hub explains: “This is a list of the best taco places in every state in the country, according to Yelp. The company identified businesses in the restaurants and food categories with a large concentration of reviews mentioning ‘taco,’ then ranked those spots using a number of factors, including the total volume and ratings of reviews mentioning ‘taco.’”
So, which ones stand out the most in Illinois? Eat This, Not That! determined that the must-have tacos in Illinois are in Chicago. Here’s why you should order the Al Pastor at Edgewater Taco:
“The carne asada and Al Pastor are the best you can order at Edgewater Tacos, with the Al Pastor tacos standing out, thanks to the hearty pineapple chunks you'll taste as you dig in. One thing not to miss out on is the green salsa. ‘[It's] one of my favorite salsas in Chicago. It's got a good amount of heat to pair along with the flavor. This stuff brings the tacos to another level,’ one Yelp reviewer wrote.”
