Wildly Popular Neighborhood Taco Spot Expanding

Big Star is getting bigger.

Sources confirmed Saturday that the popular taqueria and bar at 1531 N. Damen Ave. in Wicker Park plans to expand outdoor patio seating to a parking lot adjacent to its property and lease space inside the 1,500-square-foot storefront next door.

Currently home to the Caravette Real Estate company, Ald. Joe Moreno (1st) said he met with the owner of the building at 1537 N. Damen Ave. who "expressed Big Star's interest in growing" to him.
