Tacos El Norte

Fantastic, authentic Mexican restaurant that's very close to Tenutas. Service was fast, and the food was authentic. Lots of choices of meat that aren't all seen in other place like chicharron, lengua, and carne seca. Glad to see the option to seat yourself and to pay upfront at your own leisure, this saves you time during a limited lunch period. I highly recommend adding this place to your list of authentic Mexican joints in Kenosha

This is our Kenosha go-to for authentic Mexican food at a reasonable price. It has never disappointed my family. Some favorites include traditional carne asada tacos with onion and cilantro as well as ground beef tamales with ranchero sauce.

Uber eats a meat quesadilla, 4 tacos, and a tamale. The tamale was at least a couple days old, the entire last 1/3 of it was solid, hard, and inedible. The “meat quesadilla” had no meat on it at all. The tacos were pretty bland and basic, but not terrible. What would’ve made them halfway okay was if they’d included any verde or any other type of salsa which is pretty standard at any Mexican joint I’ve ordered from. But nothing here. Just each item wrapped in tinfoil, no extra nothing, not even some napkins. There’s much better places, this ain’t it.

Forgot half our order, had to come all the way back for it. The food taste weird, maybe too salty but it has a weird taste to it. Very disappointed in this place. Use to be better. Won't be back

First visit - been a fan of El Norte for a couple of decades, been to the Mundelein, Highwood, Waukegan, Gurnee, and Lake Bluff locations over the many years. We ordered the standard three taco (steak) dinner ($11.99), and I ordered ground beef tacos ($2.25 each) and a steak tostada ($4.99). Prices cannot be beat!! The starting salsa was flavorless, the chips seem to be out of a bag. The guacamole was creamy and delicious ($6.99). The refried beans were excellent. My wife loves the rice. The red sauce had a nice kick to it. The tacos and tostada were fabulous. I’d go back if in the area, but also would like try other local joints.
