Traspasada - Chicago

They served tamales, which were delicious! The chips and salsa were excellent, with the salsa being an almost black color—really tasty! They also brought soup to the table, which was a nice touch.

The service here is fantastic and friendly, and I absolutely love the salsa negra!

The real stars of this culinary adventure? The tacos. Both the asada and cabeza options delivered an explosion of flavor! These four tacos—juicy and bursting with irresistible tastes—were truly a culinary masterpiece. The asada had a wonderful balance of tenderness and a deliciously charred finish, while the cabeza presented a rich, melt-in-your-mouth delight. Each savory treat was nestled in freshly made tortillas, transforming every bite into a comforting experience of mouthwatering goodness. Traspasada isn't just a restaurant; it's a journey, a destination that welcomes both locals and visitors. If you're searching for authentic, delectable Mexican cuisine in a warm and vibrant atmosphere, this place is an experience you won't want to miss. Count me in for a return visit—it's absolutely worth it!

Fun little peppy spot. The black salsa is mesmerizing. The food is pretty good for its price. All in all, a good spot for tacos/ burritos/ Chile reyeyannos et al.

We are blessed with an abundance of great Mexican restaurants in the area and Traspasada ranks near the top. I highly recommend the Cesina Burrito, with Suizo of course. Also a special item not often found at any restaurant is Smelt. I love it!
