Taquizas Valdez is a Mexican restaurant located in Chicago, IL, specializing in tacos, tortas, and other traditional Mexican dishes. Owner and executive chef Ivan Valdez, a former chef at several highly-acclaimed restaurants and a United States Marine Corps Reserve veteran, brings his culinary expertise to this establishment.

The menu at Taquizas Valdez features composed tacos like the signature “pollo al limon,” customizable build-your-own tacos, tortas made with house-baked bread, and innovative starters such as the "taquiza fries" and "torre de ceviche." The restaurant offers lunch and dinner service five days a week, with a special breakfast menu on weekends that includes Mexican pastries, breads, and breakfast tortas.

Taquizas Valdez is a tribute to Valdez's late mother, Rosa Valdez, and their shared Mexican heritage, inspired by the time they spent together catering “taquizas” for friends and neighbors. With counter-service ordering, seating for 36 guests, carryout, and delivery options, Taquizas Valdez provides a warm and inviting dining experience that reflects Valdez's passion for Mexican cuisine.
