    Piña colada
    Sandra C.

    ***They do charge a 30% gratuity for tables 6 people and up, and they charge you a fee for paying with card*** Great food & ambiance. Let's start with the food, every item that was ordered during my visit was absolutely delicious and served in pretty large portions. The Chile con Carne burrito plate smothered in green chile sauce is more than enough for two people and it's full of flavor, they don't go easy on the meat, cheese or sauce. The fajitas were also cooked perfectly and they were tender and flavorful. My husband got the combination plate and was satisfied with all the items he chose, and specially the chile relleno, you get to pick three items. The salsas they bring out are very good too, especially the green one. The Monster Margaritas are humongous and come in a variety of flavors, super refreshing and not packed with sugar. I recommend both the Cucumber Margarita, so refreshing and the Mango Margarita, slightly sweet and full of flavor. They do serve beer as well and they have Happy Hour Specials. The service was great, our waitress was attentive and friendly. Our food came out fairly quickly although the restaurant was packed. It's a popular place with the locals and for a good reason. The ambiance is lively and bright. The prices are $10 and up. It's not cheap, but it's worth a visit.

    Steak with all the freshest toppings!

    We love this place! Great service, delicious food, great prices, the place is always busy and lively but there's never a long wait. Considering their prices are good, I'd recommend anything, and portions are always generous!

    Chicken Flauta Plate (I tore 1 in half to make sure it was chicken)
    Rachel B.

    During the pandemic I became addicted to ChaChi's with their drive thru menu! ChaChi's has fabulously flavored salsa and food that is on point. I always order the chicken flauta plate with chips and queso and my eating companion loves the burrito supreme with asada meat and smothered in red. Watch out because some burritos are just burritos and not a plate so if you are wanting rice and beans ask for the plate. As a side note I have eaten ChaChi's at least a dozen times and most of the time the order is perfection but sometimes it is not - so always make sure to check your order before you leave. Also, I just found out meals no longer come with complementary chips and salsa it cost $2 for a 4oz and chips (still worth it)! I highly recommend ChaChi's!!! I will be back!!!

    Combo plate with cheese enchilada and green chile
    Rafael G.

    Go to where the locals go. Everyone from Cruces knows Chachis is legit. Let's get to the good stuff, here's what I had today: Combo Plate with cheese enchilada and beef Torta. The enchilada was cheesy and yummy. I got green chile which wasn't overpowering with heat but still spicy. The Torta was absolutely delicious. The tortilla they use is fresh and has amazing flavor. The meat and potatoes inside the Torta was seasoned perfectly. Chile con carne burrito: Meat and potato burrito smothered with chile and cheese. What more do you need? Margarita- holy smoke this is huge! I expected a regular size but hey, gotta do what I gotta do. Service- spot on and very attentive. Great job! I'll be coming back for more!

    Probably some of the largest Fajitas I have seen in a bit. A solid Mexican option for lunch with good portions for the price.

I remember when this place was DGs deli, back in the olden days, and it has really been stripped down. At one point during the cooking there was a huge puff of oily smoke that made one of the four of us have to go outside to get some fresh air. The food was better than I feared it might be. The two diners who had Pho really enjoyed it and their fried egg rolls. My husband wolfed down his entire plate of tofu pad thai. Why was the pad thai orange colored, an orange never seen in nature? I don't know. I had chicken pad thai. In retrospect, the tofu would have been a safer choice. Because even though the chicken was very thinly sliced, I got a few bites that seemed a drop undercooked. You know that yikes-this-is-chicken-sushi flavor? That. So I just ate around the chicken and hoped for the best. The entire front end of the restaurant is run by one middle-aged man who works the register and serves as the waiter and busboy too. So when they are slammed it can be a few minutes until you order, but the food came fast.

As a Chinese person, it's consider decent to get away from the usual chow fun you get in Chinatown. The eggroll was okay. The ambiance was quite sad there. A bit run down restaurant that it looks like it's holding to its last leg but it's a strong last leg lol. Service was a hit or miss type. The guy was too busy watching the World Cup so didn't really attention to us. You pay up front when you finish your food. He doesn't bring the check to you.

I waited about 45 minutes for a plate with roasted chicken thighs, rice, salad, and hummus with pita. Which I would normally think would be super quick to plate and get out. Unfortunately, the chicken was extremely over-salted (I had to remove the skin), the rice was mushy, the salad had no dressing, and the hummus had a very odd, overly smooth texture that was off-putting.
