I've heard from my coworker, Dave, that Mexico Clasico is the absolute best.  He easily goes here at least twice a week.. maybe more on the weekends.

Just an FYI... they're hiring!  If you love food and local businesses, this might be your sign!  They have great burritos, too.  I used to eat here for lunch every week!

#6: El Burrito Loco - 2430 Auburn St Rockford

I'm totally guilty of being one of their frequent customers.  I crave tacos so often haha.  My DoorDash history is all El Burrito Loco, no joke.

And my favorite comment of the night:

"I don't eat tacos unless I make them or better yet my moms. She makes her own tortillas. I used to take orders on Thursday and deliver on Fridays at Hennig. No other place can compare to moms food."
