    We were on the hunt for cheap but delicious tacos and came across taqueria Morelia.  

    We tried alambre, nopales, bistek de lomo, chuleta, chicharron, and carne asada tacos.
    All were delicious and I listed in order of my favs.

    Even tho this was thru delivery, the food arrived warm and fresh.

    Def will try again.

    Authentic, no frills Mexican food. The spot is kind of small but the staff does a good job of making you feel welcome. They can take a little time to cook so keep that in mind. Great quality of meat compared to most restaurants in the area. Highly recommend if you want food that is authentic.

    My order consisted of only tacos. Tacos are pretty hard to mess up. If tacos are bad.. I have very little faith in other more strenuous entrees. My taco order consisted of tacos al pastor which seemed to be recommended and a taco asada. The taco al pastor was decent but had alot of nerve/gristle so that was the reason I can say I didn't enjoy it as much. If you remove all that, you see you end up with a lot less meat on the taco.
    The asada was okay.. not the most seasoned but I prefer unseasoned and just add salsa than have it be too salty which can happen a lot when an overzealous "taquero" overdoes it with the salt....
    The cilantro looked fresh...which is good because sadly there are some places that will use days old cilantro..but this one looked fresh.

    This place will fall into the category of I tried it..it was okay.. but I will not be rushing to return.

    I'm going to be nice here; it's actually 2.5 stars.  

    Hubby and I wanted to try a different place in our neighborhood, so this was our choice for tonight.

    I was pretty disappointed.  The caldo de Cameron was blend, even though they included extra chili peppers.  The intrinsic kick a soup should possess; in other words, wasn't present.  The tragic story occurred at the end of my soup consumption: one of the shrimps wasn't, at all, de-shelled.  That particular shrimp shouldn't be in my soup, or in anyone else's.  Owner(s): please take a note.  

    Hubby's pork gordita was just ok.  He definitely prefers the gordita by the joint diagonally across the McDonald's on Lawrence.  If you want to know what that joint is, please take a look at my other review on that joint.  

    Their menu is more extensive.  Perhaps I just ordered the wrong items.  if that's the case, I will come back, if there's absolutely no other options for me to eat at 2100 hour.  I have to honestly say: living in Albany Park, There's always something better than this that opens late.

    Ordered through Grubhub both red and green chilaquiles and although menu states it has egg both came without.  Both hot sauces were extremely spicy to the point that it was not edible and went straight to the garbage.  We eat and know spicy in our home but this is at an extreme new level.
