My coworkers and I frequently order tacos from here. We usually get al pastor, carne asada, chorizo or cecina. My favorites are carne asada and cecina, but I like them all. Their salsa verde is mild/medium and salsa roja is hot/spicy. Both are delicious. You can buy containers of salsa as well ($3 for 8 oz and $5 for 16 oz). The tacos are getting kinda pricey though.... almost $4 per taco.

Delicious from the moment I bit into the taco all the way after I even swallowed it. The carne was juicy, the cilantro and cebolla fresh and mixed in...the tortillas were doubled and hugged the carne in every bite. No left over empty tortilla space bc they put more than enough carne. I added more lime and then red salsa and even added the salsa from the shrimp taco. Pure deliciousness. The best. Wish we lived closer!

Low key taco joint with a neighborhood feel. Their lengua taco is the best I ever had, also their red salsa is to die for

The tacos were so good I got emotional. We had asada, cecina and lengua tacos and they were all super flavorful and super tender. Ive had tacos all over the city and this place is one of the best. Highly recommend.

Hubs and I were looking for a quick bite for lunch and OMG where have these tacos been our whole lives?!! The tacos were stuffed to the max, were fresh and tasty, and carne asada is of premium-grade meat! This is def. a superior quality taco, arguably in Chicagoland area! I cant wait to be back and enjoy more of their menu. Also had a slab of their chicharron that we plan on munching on (keto friendly!).

Wow I am ashamed to never come here before for the food. I had the steak tacos with onion/cilantro & added chihuahua cheese to them. These tacos are probably one of the best ones you can find, they’re made as you order them like literally dude threw the steak on the grill as he finished taking my order. Grab some brews on your way out to make it a complete meal, decent craft selection.

A friend recommended this place to me and I wanted to check out their restaurant area. The place is amazing and friendly. Even the food is so delicious that I couldnt save a pic unless I had the first bite which turns into finishing the whole thing. I would come here and even talked to the owner who usually is the cashier from time to time. Great service and great food is always a plus for me. Ill keep coming back to this place to order more food and keep supporting them!

Best corner store in Pilsen! I would recommend everyone should come to this store. The highlights are the al pastor tacos, the rotating beer selection, the fantastic mural of Selena on the outside, and the very nice family owners who will always make you feel welcome. 6/5 stars

Maribel is awesome. The tacos are incredible. Doesnt matter what kind you order, you will think youve found taco heaven. But the little grocery store is delightful, too. You can find all the basics here, plus fresh cuts of meat, and a surprising variety of wine and beer. Everyone is friendly and helpful. We love this place!

I live by Maribel but don’t drink so I almost never visit the business. The times I’ve been there, the owners have been extremely nice to us. We recently saw a video on Instagram highlighting Pilsen businesses and Maribel’s tacos looked fire. We knew they cooked but again, rarely visiting, it never grabbed my attention. I’m glad I saw that video because the food was great! Definitely looking forward to supporting and coming back.

The roast tacos and the cakes are good and the sauce is red. But the carnitas super dry the meat. I dont know if I went at a bad time or so is the food and the prices. But almost $ 4 dollars for a taco seems like an exaggeration.Cakes $ 8.45Tacos $ 3.59
