Absolutely love this place! Everytime we go the food is delicious and the service is great!! Make sure you always check the specials, but the tacos are always my favorite!! And the margaritas are always a hit!!

Great taqueria with many options. Both the fish and the steak tacos were excellent. The margarita was great too. I think their Michelada recipe is not like what you’d expect in Mexico — it tasted more like bloody mary mix than michelada. Nonetheless, this place is wonderful to have in the suburbs and I recommend it.

Had a DELICIOUS lunch. I had shrimp taco, bacon chorizo taco, and al pastor tacos - each was fantastic. Great chips & guac for appetizer. Wife had chicken quesadilla - it also satisfied but she would have asked for sour cream next time. Service was great and music they played on the outdoor patio really set my mind at ease. Highly recommend!

The Spicy Pork Tamales were delicious. They also have great house margaritas.

Stopped by on a whim and was very, very surprised. The outside is quite attractive with an outside eating area. The inside is nice and clean with plenty of seating. We ordered chips and salsa, Pollo with Mole, and the Steak Burrito Fajita. The chips are homemade (as expected) and very good. The chicken in the Pollo with Mole was super tender. The mole was rich. It came with homemade corn tortillas. The Steak Burrito is filled with fajita fillings, so steak, green and red peppers, and onions. The flour tortilla was filled and grilled giving the whole a nice smokey flavor. It was one of the very best burritos I have ever had. Look over my reviews. I have eaten a lot of burritos.
They have a creamy salsa verde that is great, a very nice Roja sauce, and a hot sauce that is no joke hot.
Our server was great and the whole experience was a great one. Will be back soon.

Highly recommend! Legitimate and authentic Mexican flavor! I am from Michoacan, a neighboring state of Guanajuato and by far the most authentic Mexican flavor I've had in the US! Awesome food and great service! I ordered the milanesa (beef) and a shrimp taco. They both were delicious! The torta is made by the toasted bread😍, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside 😘. The milanesa was also really great without the nerves or fat you may get in other milanesas. I really liked the torta didn't automatically include sour cream, the combination of ingredients (as pictured) was perfect! The portions were great as well. The shrimp taco was made by the tortillas 😍 (I think made in house), overall great taste with good quality shrimp and again the other ingredients were delicious! Also highly recommend the horchata & tres leches 😋! I loved they were just right, not extra sweet and the tres leches wasn't soaked. My fiance ordered the chicken torta and a steak taco, also delicious. Also, I loved the cups used were straw free and the plastic cup was industrially compostable ♻💚

Absolutely fantastic food and service. Just tried the chicken tortilla soup today for the first time. Wow! The real deal! Been coming back since they opened and always love the fresh home made dishes.

Outstanding tacos. We had shrimp, chorizo and bacon, and beef as well as guacamole and chips. Perfect casual place for lunch or dinner. Great service.

I've been a fan of Tacos Guanajuato (aka Tacos G) in Kildeer since it first opened a few years ago. The decor is bright & cheerful, staff are always helpful and friendly, and the food is delicious.

I typically will get an Al Pastor taco at any new place I try as that's sort of my benchmark, and because it typically packs more flavor than some other typical offerings at Mexican & taco places.

The Al Pastor taco at Tacos G is one of the best around, with an incredibly savory sauce and of course including the signature grilled pineapple on top, along with shredded jicama, some diced onion and cilantro. The tortillas are flavorful without being greasy, and they usually hold together, which I appreciate since nobody wants their taco filling to fall through while they're eating.

One of my other favorites is their lamb taco: The lamb is very tender and slightly crisp, and it's served on a flour (instead of corn) tortrilla with cilantro and a sauce that's similar to tzatziki, and a bit of feta-style cheese, lending a Greek flavor to the whole thing.

Every once in a while, Tacos G will have a duck taco on the menu, which is always a treat (I love duck!) but today, I had the duck taco and it was different than the last time I remember having it. Served with shaved cucumber, carrots, pickled onions, black sesame seeds and a homemade tamarind sauce, this was, without question, the best taco I've ever had in my life. Savory, slightly sweet, a bit of tang, and a wonderful element of heat - all in combination with a very tender duck and the crunch of the carrots and cucumber - made for an exceptional taco that can hold its own against the best anywhere.

I'm hopeful that the owners of Tacos G will consider making this version of their duck taco a permanent menu item.

I should mention, too, that other things I've had here are excellent as well, including their chips & salsa, guac, tamales and even their salsas (both red & green).

If you haven't tried it, do yourself a favor and go, soon!

My favorite place for “Cuban” tortas, the whole food menu is delicious, it keeps me coming when I’m around the area.
The servers also are so nice and attentive.
I do recommend this place.

We have eaten lunch (during the week) at TG three times now. EACH time, our food, drinks and service has been OUTSTANDING. I very rarely can rate most of the places in Lake County with such confidence. Street-sized tacos can be ordered individually - and are generous and perfectly seasoned. We have tried appetizers, margaritas and the soups - all excellent. I don't know how they pack so much flavor into the marinated Barbacoa - it is the best I've had. Although we have not visited the original location (in Winnetka?) but, we will soon. Highly recommended!

Absolutely the best taco spot in the Chicago Area. Try the Bacon & Chorizo. Fernanda was an absolute sweetheart. Will definitely visit again next time I'm in town.

If you’ve driven by this place a million times but never tried it, definitely try it! This is fantastic gourmet food! The tacos are amazing (I love the Chorizo taco and the Fish tacos) and the atmosphere is very nice. Given the location, you might not expect much but try it! And the margaritas are the best we’ve ever had. I’d give it ten stars if I could.

Been here many times and will keep going back. Love this restaurant… Margaritas are the best I’ve ever had. Food is really good. Ambience is nice. Only downside is service is usually slow, but I’ve noticed an improvement.

First visit, looking for lunch options to meet a friend. The atmosphere bright and cool on a hot day, the fish taco was outstanding, and the skinny margarita over rocks was one of the best I’ve tasted, totally refreshing and delicious meal. The service was great!
