Tacos El Norte

Holy Guacamole!
TACOS EL NORTE, the real deal in Mexican dining

Throughout the North Shore there are tons of “authentic” Mexican restaurants. Many feature $12 burritos or margaritas that make you think whether they even carry alcohol at the bar. But for Mexicana authentica, make sure you salsa to TACOS EL NORTE in Highwood.

Not only does the food here rock… this place is perfect for people watching, with the kids and when being super gentle on the wallet is a consideration. Here a 3 taco dinner with beans and salsa is less than $7 bucks! You can carry out or if you prefer dine in. Please note… the average seating is about 30 minutes so its more of a eat and go rather than eating and lounging. If its Mexican you’re after the only question is will it be the McDonald's version of Mexican @ Chipotle or the real deal meal at Tacos El Norte?

Located just North, past the center of Highwood, most of my fellow north shore residents haven’t even heard of this amazing place. That’s because it’s a bit hidden and set away from most of the the glitzy and costlier dining establishments of Highwood along Green Bay and Sheridan Rd.

Arriving here can easily take you away from life as you may know it… and as if you spent a whole day sipping on pina coladas under the hot sun a la Mexican decorations which are a truly great touch!

Stop by Tacos El Norte for a drink or amazing food (including breakfast) with speedy service. Your stomach will be satisfied and your bank account will be unscathed w discovering this Mexican dining gem of the North Shore.
