I've been here before back in 2016 and just like the past the service was outstanding, and food was delicious! I got the Chile Verde plate and that pork was so juicy and tender and the salsa verde was perfect spicy and flavorful! The rice and beans were great as well and those giant handmade tortillas complement the food very well. Chile Verde is my go to at any Mexican restaurant and I'm very picky about it. This place made everything with love how we say it in Mexico hecho con amor! The restaurant itself is calm and very clean and very spacious I'm definitely coming again. read more

Friendly service, good prices, food is good. Best part of the meal are the tortillas!

Very devious Birria still better than yo mama's. Eating here is like going to Mexico it's a whole vibe.

If you want authentic and delicious handmade tortillas please visit. Todo los platillos tradicionals y favoristo a tu gusto

This is the worst birria ever. The consomé was literally tomato with cumin. The meat was dry and tasteless and to top it off overpriced, $25 for 3 pieces of dry meat. Don't waste your time on going. read more

My husband has been coming here since he was a kid. He's vegan now but he has always wanted to come bring me to this plate and although I wanted to try the chilaquiles plate, he made me order the birria combo lol. I got the revuelta mix and omg it was so delicious. Haven't had birria like that in a long time. The service was friendly and nice. Looking forward to going back sometime. Thank you read more

Great authentic Mexican food. Weekends packed. Parking not large enough accommodate weekend crowd. Weeks parking usually not a problem

Menudo was tasty but lots of Grano. Could've used more carne. The big plate of Birria de Chivo was delicious, but for $25 it came with no beans and rice and no more than a pound or so of Birria. They charge $3 each for a small bowl beans and small bowl of rice. The corn tortillas were absolutely delicious though. Homemade through and through. I recommend the birria plate that actually comes with rice n beans to save cash. read more

Small restaurant with good food. I came with my mom. She had the pozole de pollo and I had the combo platter. My mom asked for extra granos which was no an extra charge. The tortillas were extra large and yummy. The chips were home made and the Chile was spicy but good. She got an horchata with extra ice. I had the combo platter which was un taco dorado con pollo y verduras, una enchilada de queso, un chile relleno, and side of rice and beans. The Chile relleno was my fav but it never has. Parking lot is in the back and there is also entrance through the back. read more

Lunch Date July 21, 2023 Family Owned Business!!!! and when I say family owned I mean family own... I had the pleasure of meeting the owners children. When I have lunch dates with an old boss/friend now she tends to take me to thee best places not only to eat , I enjoyed her company and Jose was a bonus Owner of restaurant. He even took the time to show me around back outdoors where they have live entertainment on weekends. For me that is a huge bonus a new spit to bring my mother in law. I started out with Guacamole yummy so much for sharing. I devoured it while José spoke ! The chips were on point crunchy, salty quickly dived into the Chile . Once my main course arrived we dug in. My enchilada and chili relleno hit the spot. I nibbled on another plate the Carne Asada with eggs beans and rice. I miss those flavors ! The beans and rice is just like how grandma use to make them... read more

Haven't been here in ages!!! When in on a Friday morning and it was empty. I was able to find parking in front of the restaurant on the street,($1 for an hr) they do have parking in the back as well I sat down and was greeted right away. Ordered and food came out promptly. I ordered a taco de barbacoa my mother ordered taco de cabeza. And my little one ordered taco dorado plate for kids. And two cafe se olla. Food hasn't changed in my opinion, it was delicious and my taco came with a small side of conzumel. Gave it a four because soda was $5... what in the world?? Seemed like things need a little cleaning, specially the menus. read more

This restaurant was a regular during my childhood. Finally came back to it as an adult, and it's the best thing I ever did. There's plenty of parking in the back of the restaurant and metered parking on the street. We were greeted and seated right away. Ambiance was good and service was fast. We ordered their famous Birria, Menudo, and a quesadilla with a side of rice and beans. The Birria was served nicely, and delicious. Tender meat, and not watered down consomé! The menudo was clean, good flavor and did not disappoint. Let's talk about their tortillas a Mano! big, thin, and so good, I paired them with the beans and it felt just like eating at moms! Overall, this place is great; fast, delicious, and welcoming. I recommend this place and will definitely be back. read more

Over priced...lackluster...hole in the wall place with michelin prices .......that is. It doesn't match the ambiance... was just mediocre at best.... I've eaten a lot of birria in my time .. for the price it doesn't deliver read more

I came here for the first time and I will definitely be coming back. The outside is humble and worn but I came for the food not the ambiance. I ordered the birria plate. It came with cilantro, onions, habanero salsa and the best corn tortillas I've ever had in my 47 years. The salsa was very hot but yet it had an amazing habanero flavor. Overall the meal was not merely good it was something special. The salsa the tortillas and birria were perfect. The service was friendly and efficient and I enjoyed everything tremendously. read more

Wow!wow!wow! The Birria is so authentic and the staff is very friendly. The birria takes me back to my grand mothers house in Michigan Mexico.

Birrieria Chalio - Chile Casero..... - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Great costumer service and very kind food was very delicious worth the price! very rare to find both things in one restaurant now days

During my visit to Birrieria Chalio, I noticed the decor was quite outdated, but it still had an authentic feel and a welcoming family vibe. Many guests seemed to be regulars. When I arrived, I seated myself (it's self seating) and a server with tattoos came over, offering me a menu and a drink. However, she appeared a bit impatient when I asked for a few minutes to decide.(she even rolled her eyes) Shocked that I was sent, another younger server. She took over and provided much more polite and helpful service. Despite the lackluster initial service, I must admit that the food, especially the fresh large tortillas and the combination birrieria, was delicious. However, I don't think I'll be returning mainly due to the subpar initial service from the server with the tattoos and attitude. As I continued with my meal, I noticed that the server with tattoos was offering coffee refills to tables around me but seemingly ignored my needs. This made the situation uncomfortable and awkward. I wonder if my pride key chain had anything to do with the poor service. Overall, because of this uncomfortable experience, I cannot recommend this location to anyone, despite the good food they offer. read more

Great food ! Delicious hand made tortillas! Birria is amazing! I will be returning soon.

Always great authentic Mexican Birria! Love coming to this place. Don't let the old decor and furniture deter you. The food excellent!

My cousin came here to have lunch and when he was eating this got stuck. He was almost choking and the employees from there weren't even trying to help him. Till he was able to spit it out and this came out! Then the daughters owner came and kept telling him that that has never happened and had an attitude! My cousin was bleeding a lot and she didn't even offer to call the paramedics or ask if he was feeling better. Next time who ever your name is the owners daughter know how to deal with a situation like this you were very rude to my cousin and he almost choke. Plus he had to still pay after what happened! OSHA should go inspect your restaurant! read more

This place was delicious! I will definitely be coming back. The outdoor seating area was spacious and clean, and our waitress was really sweet. The food was sooo good. The birria plate I ordered came with a side of beans and rice (both delicious) and a little bowl of consommé. The tortillas are handmade and HUGE! I couldn't even finish one whole tortilla. Agua de pepino was also refreshing and they made scrambled eggs which were not on the menu for that day for my baby cousin, which was really nice of them. She's 1.5 years old. It was very nice of them to accommodate her baby needs. There is also plenty of parking behind the restaurant. Loved it. Tasted homemade. read more

It needs to be said first, that their staff is on their A game. Fabiola was an excellent server and kindness goes a long way and needs to be rewarded more. She knew her menu, asked necessary questions to have our breakfast made to our tastes. Her service was impeccable. The food was AMAZING. The pork and green Chile combination breakfast plate was delicious. The sauce was the right amount of spicy. Handmade tortillas. We ordered the menudo without hominy. The flavor was excellent. Condiments were fresh and chopped to perfection. The caldo de pollo was flavorful and full of vegetables. Horchata was just ok but still yummy. We will definitely be returning. Indoor and outdoor seating available. Small private parking area and minimal street parking. read more

Omg this place is to die for. I tried this place after many relatives had told me to go here. When I tried the birria it gave me a flashback to the birria I had growing up at home. The birria is so tasty and the caldo of it is just to the next level. The service is extremely exceptional and huge shout out to Alma for going above and beyond. The tortillas are super huge and generous. I can't wait to go back again. Only a mile down from el mercadito. Be sure to get here early as it does get super busy. read more

We stopped by Chalio's last Sunday after church, it was my first time there and as soon as I walked in I smelled the birria de chivo come to find out that's what they specialize in! All the food was delicious and good portions! Our table ordered menudo, birria de chivo with rice & beans, and chilaquiles, we all shared our food and even had to get a to-go container! Everthing was delicious! We also tried the cafe de olla and horchata, it was bomb!! I also love that they give you an order of fresh handmade tortillas with your food, they taste so good! The service was great also, our server was Benjamin and honestly he made us feel like family! He was welcoming, hospitable, and very attentive! He answered all our questions we had about the food, and he gave me a lesson on birria vs Barbacoa lol! Benjamin really went out of his way to make sure we had a great lunch! Thanks Benjamin and thank you birrieria chalio! Can't wait to go back! read more

Great service - pretty empty for a Wednesday night and our server was extremely attentive. Their salsa has a nice kick to it and has a stronger tomato flavor, which I loved. Thick chips too. Steven ordered the birria burrito (and struggled bigtime with the pronunciation but our server was kind enough to teach him how to say it properly). Huge portion size and came with the bowl of consomé. My mole negro plate was fantastic. Deep flavor, fall-off-the-bone chicken, and fresh tortillas! read more

This place used to be good, but sucks now. The portions got smaller and the quality of the food went down. $75.00 for a small bowl of pozole and a plate of chile relleno and two drinks what a joke. read more

The lady who took our order was very nice! Aside of that the food is not great... Drove from OC to come home dissatisfied. 1. The goat meat was chewy 2. Paid for extra broth and only got 1 12 oz. cup with a huge piece of meat. 3. Tortilla soup is basically the caldo de pollo without chicken. They call it tortilla soup because you add tortilla chips? Okay They shouldn't call it tortilla soup read more

What do I know? I'm just a dumb güero who stumbled in to get a posole to go, because it was cold out, and I was picking up some lunch for myself and my wife. Getting a side of corn tortillas was a genius suggestion by my wife. The place was pretty full at 11:30am. The service was quick and friendly. It was a long ride home with the aromas filling up the car. The posole was great. The gigantic chewy house made tortillas were heavenly. One order of posole and tortillas filled us both up. I would have been regretful if I done it alone. We live 30 minutes away and are now trying to cook up an excuse to go back and enjoy a proper meal there as soon as possible. read more
