Reviews for Taqueria La Penca Mexican Restaurant in North Riverside, IL

Best tacos I've had in awhile

Waitstaff always friendly. Do not let it being little stop you. I usually go around lunchtime. It is always busy. When I?ve gone... there?s been a special of the day. I think it?s nice that you can go in and get a meal that has rice and refried beans included.If you don?t want that you can always get one or two tacos or one taco and a Sope. Food is so good and I returned to it when I?min the area. The price is certainly reasonable. Read more

Good food. Everything was great.

The food was amazing the price was a little to much. I asked for a side of guacamoley it was 7.99 really I could've bought my... own avocado and made it myself. Read more

I?ve been here 3 times. The first time it was great. I came back a few weeks later and my food was cold. They reheated it on the... grill, vegetables, sour cream and all, it was disgusting. Needless to say, I didn?t eat it. I came back tonight 30 min beforeclosing and the waitress Informed us the grill is off, if that would be ok. Well, of course I don?t want cold food so we left.If you want to close early, then turn off the lights and let us all know you?re closed. I will not return to this establishment. Read more

Decent Mexican food and decent service. Prices were a bit high but it could just be Biden's economic impact on prices. I had the... flautas. The chiken was tasty. Read more

This is the best authentic Mexican cuisine around. We have been eating from here for over a year and have never had any issues... with the food. I love the Al Pastor tacos, they really are delicious. Not bad prices also. 6/5 stars. Read more

Small place in a strip mall but unexpectedly good authentic food! Taco salad was great and actually just the right serving size... though the shell/bowl appeared more than half empty? Was good, wouldn?t hesitate to stop in again if in the area! Read more
