Our story, our passion
Discover the heart and soul behind Barrio Taqueria & Cocina. From our family roots to our authentic dishes, learn what makes us a cherished part of the Carol Stream community.
Our family tradition
Barrio Taqueria & Cocina is a proud family-owned business with two locations, a sister restaurant to Ikal. Our journey began with a dedication to authentic Mexican flavors from Estado de Mexico. We craft many items from scratch daily, including fresh tortillas for our huaraches, gorditas, sopes, and quesadillas. Our salsas and chips are also made in-house, ensuring a taste of tradition in every bite.
More than just delicious food
Beyond our exquisite dishes, Barrio Taqueria & Cocina offers a unique and special experience. We are a street casual spot where everyone feels welcome, even your furry friends with our dedicated dog menu! We pride ourselves on serving very fresh dishes, prepared with the finest ingredients to deliver an unforgettable dining experience.
Our passion for authentic flavors
Our passion lies in bringing the true taste of Mexico to your table. We are especially proud of our huaraches, a testament to our commitment to homemade, authentic cuisine. At Barrio, we strive to create a very home-like and friendly atmosphere, where every meal feels like a gathering with loved ones. It's more than just food; it's an experience.
