★★★★★ 5.0 C. Pedraza · Nov 2025

After returning from our trip late at night, we found ourselves quite hungry and eager to avoid fast food. A quick search led us to a fantastic 24-hour restaurant that exceeded our expectations. The food was not only delicious but also offered a satisfying alternative to the usual fast-food options. We were thrilled to discover such a gem, making our late-night dining experience truly enjoyable.

10/5 stars. SO GOOD. Their fresh warm tortilla chips, amazing. Their salsa, delicious and spicy! Their meat is so flavorful, makes for amazing tacos. Friendly people, nice atmosphere, smells delicious as soon as you step foot through the door. And 24/7!! Our new favorite spot.

my boyfriend and I ate here last night and he asked for just onion and cilantro on his chicken tacos and they put everything on it I think because there was weird stuff in it and the tortillas were goey. we didn't knoe till we got home to eat since it was take out, and he didn't sleep since he got very sick and has been ill throwing up since. do better.

Alright yall hear me out: I hate spending money on food that doesn’t hit. not this spot. As a Mexican myself, I judge mexican places a little harder. this place was DELICIOUS. the tacos were so fire. meat was 10/10 so much flavor in every bite. the salsa had a nice spice and a great taste. overall i recommend this place. i ate there so im not sure about delivery experience. but take it for me, a young mexican who loves tacos. PS, don’t come for the lack of service. english is the second language so they can be timid. but they’re very nice people. prices aren’t cheap, but what’s cheap nowadays anyways? if you want good quality food, spend your money here. if you want cheap, go find cheap quality. i will come again, thanks amigos!!!

I have never in all my 22 years of life went inside a restaurant and had the server complain about having to work?! I have had tacos el tio#8 at least 6-7 times in the past as this is the only place in the north suburbs that is open late enough after I finish up at lifetime fitness. The only reason I go is on tuesdays with a group of 5 of my friends bringing business at 11:30pm every Tuesday. Today I finally had enough and decided I was going to write a review. I am honestly nervous every time I walk in this establishment because of how we get treated by one particular female server. And as some of these reviews have mentioned this is not a one time thing. Tacos are ok at best and their Tuesday deal is only for one type of meat. This place isn’t worth the abuse you receive from your server
