Guac N Tacos is a Mexican restaurant owned by Yerika, who grew up in Elmhurst and wanted to bring quality food back to her hometown. The menu centers on tacos made fresh on corn tortillas, with a wide variety of fillings including grilled steak, carnitas, pastor, and options like mole chicken and vegan hibiscus. Beyond tacos, there are quesadillas, burritos, enchiladas, ceviche, and larger plates like fajitas and carne asada.
The restaurant takes care with its ingredients and preparation. Signature items include chilaquiles, crispy flautas, and shrimp ceviche. For those with dietary preferences, the menu has vegetarian choices and vegan options. Sides range from simple grilled corn with cotija cheese to tamales and empanadas.
If you are looking for a full meal, taco dinners come with rice and beans. The restaurant also offers desserts like buñuelos with ice cream, flan, and churros. At the York Street location, there is a bar with margaritas in flavors like mango, strawberry, and cucumber jalapeño, along with beer and other drinks. Guac N Tacos is available for private events and catering as well. There are two locations in Elmhurst and one in Western Springs.
