Krasy Taco Stop
Master Critic Review
Krasy Taco Stop
7.7
A small Ravenswood late-night counter that shines as a non-obvious stop when most nearby kitchens are dark. Keep the order simple—two taco builds and one add-on—so the timing stays fast and the meal doesn’t sprawl.
Must-Try Dishes:
Steak tacos, Al pastor tacos, Breakfast tacos
Scores:
Value: 7.8

Insider tip: Use it as a two-taco stop—don’t over-order and slow the kitchen.
Logistics & Planning
Parking: Street parking only; usually manageable late at night but can be tighter on weekends near closing time.
Dress code: Very casual — hoodies, jackets, and late-night wear all fit.
Noise level: Low to moderate — compact counter setup with minimal background noise.
Weekend wait: 10–20 minutes after midnight; can spike briefly right after bar close.
Weekday lunch: Not applicable — primarily a late-night operation.
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Limited — can assemble simple veggie tacos depending on availability.
Vegan options: Very limited — possible with modifications, but not a strength.
Gluten-free options: Corn tortillas available, but no dedicated gluten-free prep; cross-contact possible.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Only if the goal is ultra-casual and quick — it’s better as a late-night bite than a sit-and-talk date.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes — it’s counter-style with no reservations; ordering and eating space is first-come, first-served.
Is it kid-friendly? Not really — best for adults late at night; limited seating and late hours make it impractical for kids.
Best For
Better for: Very late-night taco access when nearby kitchens are closed, especially for fast solo stops.
Skip if: You want a full sit-down meal, broader dietary options, or a social group setting — choose a larger taqueria instead.
