Excellent burritos and homemade flour tortillas...Friendly family service and one of our go to for quick and easy lunch or dinner. Would recommend read more

The food is great. The sizes are huge. We couldn't believe the number of customers that came in while we were waiting for our orders.

The food was amazing, the homemade flour tortillas with butter reminded me of having these at my buddy's grandmas house. The lady that helped us was very helpful since it was our first time here read more

The hubby and I love Mexican food and we love to try the small family restaurants. Found this place on yelp and we live just down the road from it so we gave it a try. It's a small place , can't miss it from the street as it's a bright yellow building, but size doesn't matter if the food is good and I'm here to tell you it's yummy good. We walked in was greeted by a lady with a big smile later found out her name was Jess. We ordered their special the Chili verde wet burrito plate plus chips and salsa. First you can't go wrong with their prices. I ordered 2 meals and added a tip and it came to just a little over $20. Now for the food. Home made tortillas the best. Everything tasted so authentic. Their salsas which they have a red and green one. The red very flavorful with a little heat and the green ( wow) with extra heat. We tried both with our chips and then hubby at the end mixed them together and it went to another level of goodness. I couldn't eat all mine so I made sure I added that green salsa so I can continue to enjoy it later. The people here are so sweet. One of the cooks even came out and greeted us since it was our first time. We will definitely be back to enjoy great food and outstanding customer service. read more

Best chili verde burrito ever!! (Be sure to add cheese-- no beans and/or rice. Just cheese and the chili verde. I promise! It's perfect!) Also, *each bite* should be enjoyed with their homemade pico de gallo and green sauce! Their tortillas are homemade daily! Try them with butter--OMG! Yum!! read more

Authentic, flavorful, fresh Mexican food! Hand made tortillas, fresh chips, hot and mild salsas, and cooked to order food. All this and great prices. Daily specials for $7.50 Monday thru Friday. Don't eat here unless you want to ruin all other Mexican food places for yourself. read more

This "homemade Mexican" food was by far the most disappointing place to eat. The tacos weren't made correctly, and most of the meat was fat. The enchiladas tasted as if someone had retrieved them from the trash. The workers were nice, but no one even spoke the language. It was unreasonably expensive for the quality of food. In-N-Out is 10 minutes away; go there instead. It will cost way less, and you'll be much happier. read more

I'm from out of town with family in the area - ALWAYS think about this place and can't wait to order as soon as I visit. Their chili verde burrito is near the top of my list of all time favorite foods. read more

Great food at reasonable prices and the people are great. There isn't a lot of seating, and it can get really busy, but it is worth it.

Nice folks and awesome homemade flour tortillas My picky son loves their bean and cheese burritos and French fries. I love their tortillas and bean, rice, and cheese burritos. Carnitas are good as well as the chips salsa. I've never had anything from Chachos that I didn't like. read more

It's too early to say, I've only eaten here about 4-5 times, but from what I've experienced they serve top tier Mexican fast food. Burrito tortillas are fresh/hand-made, beans taste good, salsa is fresh and has a good bite, and the variety in choices is descent. I don't like the mom/pop approach to running a business - for instance they may choose to close early on a given day, so hours of operation may not be reliable - but I wouldn't let that influence my decision to eat here. I also don't like how long it can take to get an order placed and filled, so it's best to call in your order in advance. Still, authentic "home made" Mexican fast food uninfluenced by the tourist trade, and that's always a get along this stretch of the Central Coast. read more

These folks are so welcoming and the food is epic. Don't know what else to say. We're not from around here but I swear we'd be here weekly if we were! read more

Very good al pastor quesadilla. Added guac which was also very good. enough for 2 smaller appetites. Green salsa is spicy and good. Taco salad also very good with shredded beef-homemade shell excellant. Will definitely go again. Don't let outside deter you- very small. Next time I will order and wait as called in and quesadilla cold but my fault on timing- still tasted good. read more

VEGETARIAN & VEGAN PSA: Food is not for you, tortilla and beans are made with lard (but rice is okay if you just want to eat rice). For non veg folks, food is absolutely worth the stop. read more

I don't order a wide variety from Chacho's due to personal dietary restrictions but I'll vouch for the street style tacos that come on two delicious soft tortillas with cilantro, onion, and salsa. Their beans are my personal favorite in town. The guac is creamy and tastes great on anything. Try the burgers here at least once. They make the classic, smaller patty style with shredded lettuce, mayo, ketchup, mustard, pickles, tomato, and slice of raw onion. It's a messy, yummy burger. I order a double meat to make it a meal for me. The space inside is tiny. T-i-n-y, tiny! Two tables. Outside: two tables. It's fun to sit inside and eat while you see the locals stopping by. You can learn a lot about the friendly community here just by sitting in the dining area and listening to the folks that stop into a community fixture. The mural on the outside is beautiful! read more

This is a beautiful spot. The food is delicious, and service is great. One of the best.

got the Friday chile relleno special. the price went up recently judging from past reviews, this was ~850. im happy to support a local biz, but wasn't thrilled with portion size... there was barely any chicken in my taco.... but perhaps im a glutton xD everything tasted good tho! sidenote: i wish they used less plastic/more eco friendly/compostable products. everything was bundled up and one time use, which made me a lil sad inside. read more

Chacho's Mexican Takeout - friday chile relleno special - Mexican Near Me - Oceano, California

I've been dying to try this place after a friend posted a picture of a burrito made with a homemade tortilla. Homemade tortillas? I'm there! That brings memories walking home from junior high to my friends house and her abuela having fresh tortillas to roll up with butter and cinnamon. So we took the twenty minute drive. It smelled heavenly and there were a good eight people socially distanced waiting. We both ordered the carnitas burrito. I'm a bit of a carnitas snob and think I make the best (who am I?) but this was amazing with nice crispy pieces. The burrito had even amounts of meat, rice, and beans. Nothing over powered. The pico de gallo wasn't chunky which I quite prefer. And it had a really nice kick to it. The homemade tortilla was a bit thick but it didn't take away from it. We also ordered guacamole, chips and salsa. Chips were freshly fried. Guac was just mashed avocado which I don't mind. Salsa was a bit mild but salsa is a personal preference. I hear they have a spicy one. Would go back in a heart beat. They are very inexpensive. A meal under $10 and during covid that's huge! read more

I used to eat here quite a bit until "IT" happened. I always ordered the same thing, the carne asada burrito. I thought it was the best burrito I ever had. So, I phoned in my order and got there before they had a chance to make it. For a little hole in the wall, they had good food and were always busy. As I was waiting in line to pay, I happened to see the cook. He was standing there picking his nose!!! That was it for me. I walked out and never looked back. That was quite a few years ago. Hopefully they have a new cook cause they had great food. read more

My food was delicious, homemade tortillas, fast and friendly service. I can see why there is always a line.

Best Mexican food around the grandmas in here treat you like you're part of the family and did I mention home made tortillas... careful ladies or your bound to get wife'd up. Aye caramba read more

So delicious! Homemade tortillas. Love the fresh chips that are made to order. This hole in the wall is so good it has a line out the door most day where you will happily wait 20 mins for a bean borrito. Friendly staff! Family run and owned. read more

My family gets chachos every week basically and they have the best tamales for Christmas!!

My wife and I stopped here on our way to Monterrey Ca, few days ago and I gotta say, the asada Burrito is a hit. Homemade flour tortillas are delicious and a must. Meat , beans and rice on point. We'll be stopping here again for sure. Once they fix the entire 1 highway we'll be making another trip. Outside seating and take out during COVID. Everybody working here is wearing a mask which is also good. read more

Food is Excellent . Great Service. shop. Great Atmosphere. Great people... Captain Scotts Surf Shop

Incredible food. Tasty and fresh. It's a "hole in the wall " so don't expect to find much seating. It can also get busy at times, but well worth the wait. Highly recommend the burritos. read more

Chachooooooooo's The place I love. Bad day or good day, this is my go-to spot on the central coast. Service is great. Generally 3 gals running the show, that I believe are all family. One gentlemen in the back that can assist with orders but mainly cooks. Everyone of them is friendly and does their job well. I get the Carne Asada tacos or their burritos. Both have handmade tortillas, and they are incredible. read more

Just ordered the barbacoa tacos. Meat was nice and tender. The barbacoa usually has more of red spicy sauce, these were more on the plain side. Salsa was fresh and tasted home made. Nice big nice with double tortillas. read more

We dropped in for a quick bite on our way out of Pismo. When we arrived at the location, looking at the surroundings and how small it was, we honestly had second thoughts of going elsewhere but then instincts said otherwise and I thought to myself: for a small place like this to earn 4.5 star rating, it is definitely worth a try. Boy! I was right. Its a very small place with literally two tables inside and a couple outside. The lady at the counter was very pleasant, she guided us to order the right things (we are vegetarians) and she customized our entire order and our liking. She also suggested us to try their sauces and informed us about the spice levels of each. We ended up having two custom made veggie burritos, tostadas and nachos with cheese. All of them were freshly made, hot and delicious. The sauces gave us the opportunities to adjust the spice levels to our liking. Would definitely go back to this place if I were to visit Pismo Beach again. The portions were not necessarily the largest that I have seen, but were sufficient for us. read more

With the large number of people waiting outside, how could we go wrong? This place is known for their handmade tortillas. We ordered the Barbacoa and Al Pastor. The Barbacoa was very juicy and tender but did no have much flavor. The Al Pastor was slightly drier but had great flavor. Last order is at 5:45PM, so be sure to call or get here before then. read more

Horrible customer service The woman who took my order was absolutely rude I understand she was probably stressed out and under pressure but customer service is everything I have loved this restaurant since I was in high school and the fact that I received such horrible customer service after coming back to the central coast for the first time in five years....... I'm not impressed! read more

Enjoyed this place for years... it's tradition to order for work gatherings. We all enjoy. Best bean & cheese burritos around!

VEGAN EATERS HERE. Chacho's Mexican Takeout is one of my favorite kind of restaurants, a true FAMILY spot, owned and operated by a real family who, are dedicated to serving nothing but the best they can and at Chacho's for the past 36 years!!! That's pretty awesome! You can smell the sea from the entry of this spotless little spot which, btw, isn't just a takeout though there is a constant stream of people coming in to grab bags and rush out. But, they do have a few tables inside and outside if you like. What got us when we were Yelp'ing for some authentic Mexican food in the area last week, was the chatter about the tortillas, "THE BEST TORTILLAS EVER!!!!" seemed to be the deal, both corn and flour, almost ugly with their handmadedness and beyond delicious. We bought a bunch to take home and didn't waste a single one! The menu is a tad limited for us, plant based eaters but, Danielle Pimentel, daughter of the Pimentel family/owners made it easy and just made food for us. BIG, stuffed veggie burritos, loaded with grilled veggies, tomatoes, lettuce, avocado, beans and rice, one we got "Chimmie Style" or, deep fried, the other "Grilled", both draped with home made red and green chili sauce. We also asked about the fries which we had also heard were good, an eye roll suggested we needed to get some and they lived up to the look! Fresh cut, fresh made, abundant and HOT! Adding a large bottle of "authentic" Coke, lunch with tip was $18.00! Tortillas extra. We will be back and take friends!! YUMMMMMMMM Thanks, Danielle read more

Chacho's Mexican Takeout - Delicious Chile rojo wet burrito Thursday special - Mexican Near Me - Oceano, California

This place is hit-or-miss. I absolutely love their carne asada burritos. However one time I decided to experiment & try their Thursday special, a wet burrito - can't remember what kind of meat was, it but it came with rice and beans - and it wasn't good at all; the food was borderline slop. The service is prompt and friendly. However, I should advise anyone if you are not a patient person, or if you're in a hurry, avoid this place. If you walk up to the window without having called in your order, you're looking at about a 20-minute wait on a good day, up to 30-40 minutes if it's around lunch time. Case in point - last Thursday I was at a junkyard around Callender Rd and Hwy 1. I knew I wanted to stop here on my way home so I figured if I called my order in, it would be ready in the 15 minutes or so it would take me to drive there. I tried to call repeatedly for 10 mins, then started driving & kept trying for another 5 mins. Absolutely could not get through. I walked up to the window & there was only one person ahead of me, but about 5 people had called in orders - not sure how they were able to get through, because I wasn't able to & the phone was ringing constantly (and pretty much not being answered due to how busy they were). I ended up waiting close to 45 minutes for my food. I will definitely be back here in the future for their carne asada burrito, but never again will I come without having called in my order first, & I will take my sweet time driving down there. read more

We live in the neighborhood and recently decided to try this little Mexican joint. We ordered the daily special, a taco and Chile relleno with rice and beans on the side for $6.50. It was a great deal, not a ton of food, but enough if you're not interested in stuffing yourself with take-out. We went a second time and tried their burritos, which were delicious! They make homemade fresh flour tortillas, which are absolutely amazing and worth the trip alone. We are looking forward to trying the rest of the menu and supporting our local restaurant owners. read more
