Life on Chicago's North Shore would be perfect, except for one thing... There aren't enough taquerias to meet your craving for a fast, cheap Mexican fix. Fortunately Horaldo's serves fresh, authentic burritos, tacos, tostadas as well as some oddities like Mexican Wings and Mexican curly fries. There's a small dining area with a take-out counter. It also does home and office catering.

Average cost: <$10
