I found this place just by walking and using google for good places in the area as I was leaving the Sunday market in Logan square.
It was deathly hot out. So food and something cold to drink to the rescue.
Nancy was nice and very patient and helped me to pick some great options to eat.
Hands down the cheese and cactus tamal was my favorite. I suggest everybody try it. I could’ve eat like 5 of those.
The salsa was good. I like spicy so it was on point. I would t have mind a little more spicy but I understand provided for the masses is important.
I also got the chicken chimichanga and side of rice. I loved that the chicken in the chimichanga was well seasoned. That’s important.
Rice was moist and flavorful.

Patio was nice. Tables come with umbrella or there are some that are shaded with trees. Either way it’s nice on the back patio.
Some flies around but I think that’s warranted when you’re outside eating.
Maybe the owner could spray every now and then to keep them away. But they weren’t too bothersome. I definitely enjoyed my meal and overall experience.
Wish the tacos were hard shell. Great location on Kedzie across from Logan Square Blue Line. Great service. There’s a beautiful outdoor patio but it was not accessible due to the rain.
I’ve been coming here for years, it’s the best! Great margaritas and vegetarian options. The back patio is great and upstairs has room for large parties. Meow.
First time going; dropped in to get something quick.
Uncomplicated menu, everything tasted fresh, plate presentation and portions, very nice :)
I got the flautas, and a few Modelo to go along with it. Next time I will try the dessert!
It was during the mid-afternoon, so not crowded and before dinner rush. The server was Eduardo and he is amazing.
The coconut tequila was 🤯👌🏾
Will be trying the tacos next time
Salud!
Been coming here since I was a kid and the taste of the food just is unbeatable! Literally the only place I love coming to for some goooood tacos 🙌🏽
Besides the tacos I love coming here for margaritas, horchata, and my new fave ✨enchiladas ✨also highly recommend the coconut flan 🍮
This restaurant is like a hidden gem in the city. Their food was delicious and quantity was good. It is fun to go in-person with group of friends and family.
El Cid's was undoubtedly one of the best food places I've ever been. Everything about it was stunning - the taste, especially was unbelievable and the cost was reasonable. I'd recommend El Cid's if anyone's in the area!!!!
Great food, nice laid back atmosphere. Huge patio in the back with cute decor. Lively music but not too loud. The staff are very friendly and attentive without hovering. They're always great about accommodating dietary restrictions. I've never had trouble finding a hearty vegan meal here :)
All of the food was excellent, we got the chicken flautas and enchiladas suizas. Even the salsas were good, served with fresh fried tortilla chips. Besides great food, the staff was very friendly and the atmosphere was really nice. There's also a hidden outdoor patio in the back.
Very tasty food, nice place, good drinks and excellent bar service. recommended! you can ask for Frank.
