Taco Vida - Deerfield

Amazing taqueria, which his variations of tacos good for their price. I was initially hesitant to come here because I'm not familiar with $5 tacos. There was also a pretty sharp review somewhere in the list that kept me from trying. (Such is life, I suppose) The Taqueria seems much larger from outside than in. There are probably enough seats on the inside for 10-15 people, but their menu is Tacos. Service was fast, and it really felt like there was never a boring moment of receiving and eating the order. Tacos are very well cut. Despite the order of three here, there is always the temptation to smash the fourth. Her pig al pastor did not hit quite at the point, but her Tinga de pollo and beer-battered sea of Cortez with the squeeze of lime brought it to the next level. Her fried jalapenos are intense! I feel like I had a few years back in Chicago's taste and haven't seen or eaten until today. Large conversation starter and has two different Mayo-based taste profiles, one of which can be sucked into taste city. Her horchata does not leave much room for improvement, but I am curious if there could be some extra milk fat to make it more tasteful. It is a blessing and a curse that the DMV is right there. You should not miss this restaurant, but there are usually very few spots and fewer chairs as the rush hour comes.

Amazing food and service. I'm usually mad at me because I didn't know this jewel was here until now. Come on! My new favorite place in the area!

For the first time today. I ordered two tacos today, chickens and Carne Asada. They were the thickest tacos shells I ever had and they were amazing. Only one case needed for street style taco. Also could not have filled premium meat in both of them. So fresh and full of taste, served quickly. I hope to come back soon!

First visit. Smaller menu, but food was very good. Tacos and Elote were excellent. Margaritas were strong. Would come back.

There is no place like this accept maybe in Mexico. Everything is made in house. I could go on and on about the food at this place but just go. Be patient as great fresh food like this takes time and they are busy. The black beans are fantastic. Soups are home made.
