The carne asada taco is cooked to order, salted well and spritzed with a touch of lime , and the al pastor is rubbed with rust-colored adobo paste, which features a serious hit of garlic and oregano . Read more

I work in the Little Village and have quite a few Mexican choices. I am declaring this place #1 in the area as of today. Steak tacos are an excellent choice if you choose Tio.

Classic carne asada tacos . The salty, generous portions of charred skirt steak are sliced into strips, topped with freshly diced onion and cilantro , and lime wedges on the side. Read more

From carne brava to chiles rellenos to caldo de camaron ..Tio Luis has a menu where everything is delish. From the Mexican decor to old school Mexican boleros..
