Chicken is king at this brightly colored spot on Pilsen's 18th Street strip. Take your pick of whole or half charcoal-grilled chickens, as well as sides of rice, beans or charro beans (roasted pinto beans) at prices that won't break the bank. Extras such as grilled onions, tortillas, guacamole, and chips and salsa also are available for DIY chicken tacos. Alcohol isn't served, but there are plenty of fruit-flavored Mexican sodas to wash it all down.
