Don't let this place fool you, it's not your average, run-of-the-mill mom-and-pop taco shop. The meat is well seasoned, the toppings are classic. Nothing to write home about but very good all the same. Raymond's twist? If you ask for cheese, they put a slice of melted american cheese BETWEEN the two corn tortillas.
I know right? They were Quesarito-ing before Taco Bell came up with the Doritos Locos Tacos.
I give Raymond's tacos a thumbs up. I may not make the trek out to Pilsen for them, but a solid choice for anyone who is nearby. They are open late too so I can only imagine how good these are after a couple drinks.
Would we recommend? Meh..... maybe. I mean if you're in the area.
