Inspired by his daily commute on the Blue Line, we opened a transit-themed taco restaurant in Old Irving Park in 2017. Decked out with vintage bus and railroad memorabilia, Chicago Taco Authority is a…
We ordered from Chicago Taco Authority last night, and we will definitely order again! We got a Toasted Burrito ( Guac Included) with chorizo, Elote, Al Pastor Taco, and Guacamole and Chips. The 2 Taco Commuter Combo was a great deal. Everything was fresh and delicious!

The smallest little cup of beans and rice for $7. The Chicken Tinga Taco were tasteless and wet. It's like someone literally poured water on it. The ~ $7.50 for a small Asada Steak Taco (which was good) but these prices are out of control and the portions are small. We used to eat her a lot since it opened and the quality and quantity is worse and worse. There are so many other options there's just no reason to go here. Honestly, the $7 little 8 oz cup of rice and Ric Beans Combo annoyed me. Insane. The tinga was so gross, ordered two and we didn't even finish one of them.

Toasted Burrito and Elote are our go tos and always so good. They've raised prices lately so some items aren't as appetizing at their price point ($6+ for a small container of rice....). Regardless, still a great spot for dinner.

Food tastes amazing but way too expensive for what you get. Inflated prices! $7.00 for a teaspoon of ingredients in a taco.

Chicago Taco Authority is always delicious! I love the chicken tinga taco. The 3 Taco Commuter Combo is nice because you get both the tacos and the sides in one container, and includes salsa and chips with a smll guac. Its also available in a 2 taco version. The pico is my favorite. Just the right amount of heat.
