    This was a great Mexican buffet! Breakfast- brunch-tacos yumm! All the food was very good and fresh, a little pricey but includes fresh to your order made tacos and other foods, and a drink! The most impressive thing I saw was the robot delivery of your freshly made items- I was mesmerized! It would stop and make difficult turns and come back around if it didn't find your table! The only draw back for me was that no one that served us spoke English, thank goodness my friend did or I would've left. Otherwise- 5 stars

    Taco buffet

    I came here on a Friday with my grandparents when my brother came in town. It was my first time ever coming but my grandpa likes this spot so we decided to come bring them. First when we walked in the restaurant it was a little smoky but smelled delicious. Our server Ashley sat us at our table and was super helpful and attentive every time we needed service. They have a menu for you to order food if you don't want the taco buffet but we ended up trying out the taco buffet. Great choice because it was pretty tasty. You can also get made to order tripita tacos or gorditas or anything on the made to order bar. The salsa bar is also great because they have soooo many salsas to choose from. Honestly the only reason I had to take off one star is because the dessert bar was not good. You'll have to order your dessert as extra from the menu. I ordered a flan and it tasted nothing like flan and had a super weird texture. I think I'll be coming back for the breakfast buffet or taco buffet again. Hope you enjoy my food pics:)

    Chicken breast and wings
    Michael B.

    Lazy Friday with my wife. Decided that some delivery was in order. Nothing like lunch in bed. Haha. Typical Mexican menu which i'm not always a fan of, but they had wings. I always order wings if they are in the menu. My wife ordered some chicken rolled tacos (can't remember name), and they were very good. My chicken breast was large and luckily, not dried out. There was a huge chili of some type and it was very tasty. It also came with a baked potato which I normally do not eat. But it too was good (especially with the green sauce). The wings were of average size and the sauce was typical wing sauce, but we liked them. The portions were large so now we have leftovers for later. The food was delivered in a timely manner and the order was accurate. Will try them again.

    Chih'ua has been a pretty constant place for me to go eat at every time I'm by the area, I always go for the taco buffet and feast on their variety of taco options for you to self serve. Food is always really good and this last time was no exception, their enchiladas suizas, gringas con pastor and many more options are all great and don't make it any easier on me to decide on what I'll order. The only thing this past visit was that the waiter was in some sort of mood and the service wasn't great, could be better and maybe he was just having a bad day. Anyway I would definitely eat here again no doubt, price is fair, food is excellent and the service may vary but on average everything about this place is really good. Highly recommended.

    Robot server.

    Food and service was excellent. Price reasonable. I liked the robot server. Very cute. Lots of choices of food. Not your typical TexMex.

It was very heavy and very cheesy. There was something super heavy about that I cant describe. The staff was super nice and got us our food and drinks and refilled our salsa n chips often. My friend had the mole item and felt it was way too sweet/cocoa on it. Overall I would've wanted to try the other machaca items and other things.

I had just flown in from the airport, and my brother arranged it as a special family gathering. Everything started normally: we were seated, ordered our food, received our drinks, and enjoyed the complimentary chips and salsa. Then my sister (who is LGBTQ+) stepped away to use the restroom. When she returned and sat down, a manager approached our table and loudly told her--in front of other diners--that "MEN cannot use the female restroom." My sister was mortified and humiliated by the public confrontation. The manager's tone and assumption were shocking and clearly discriminatory. We immediately got up and left without eating. This wasn't about enforcing any legitimate policy; it was rude, insensitive, and targeted. My adult sister is perfectly capable of reading the restroom signs herself--no one needed to police or shame her in such a way. The incident felt rooted in homophobia and transphobia from management. We will never return to this place, and we will actively discourage others--especially LGBTQ+ individuals and allies--from patronizing it. What should have been a joyful family milestone was ruined by bigotry. Avoid this establishment if you value respect and inclusivity.

Unfortunately, that loyalty came to an end after a recent experience that was both disappointing and unacceptable. My family and I chose this restaurant to celebrate a birthday. Every guest paid separately, and there were no issues during the evening itself. However, as the event concluded, multiple attendees, including family members and in-laws, overheard servers making derogatory comments about our party. Among the remarks were that we were "ungrateful," "cheap," and "broke," along with other inappropriate comments that no customer should ever have to hear. I brought the matter to the attention of ownership, hoping for a meaningful resolution. While I was told the employees had been reprimanded, the proposed remedy was a $25 gift card. After nearly 18 years of patronage, the response felt dismissive and only added insult to injury. What disappoints me most is not simply the behavior of the staff, but the lack of accountability and concern shown afterward. This was a place I once considered a reliable and welcoming destination for family gatherings and celebrations. Sadly, that trust has been lost. As a result, I will no longer be returning or recommending this establishment to friends, family, or colleagues. Respect for customers should be a fundamental part of any hospitality business, and in this case, that standard was not met.

I bumped it up to four stars for the super friendly service and the excellent aguas frescas. We got there late, about an hour before closing and they were literally trying to get rid of the aguas for free. I guess they have to dump it if they don't use it all. It was close to our hotel so we gave it a try. Portion sizes are good. The taco platter comes with six tacos! I had the flautas Chinampa which came with four beef flautas, beans, rice, and salad. I forgot, the taco platter even came with a baked potato. Prices were excellent. We had gone to McDonald's in the morning and spent more. They also cave us frijoles charros for free. Not sure if this was standard or if they were also trying to get rid of it. I would return for the service and the convenience, but if you're looking for life changing Mexican cuisine, it's not here. What you get is a good amount of decent food at a good price served by great people.

Had multiple thousand Google reviews and they were all close to five stars. So I knew I had to check it out. It was super close to my hotel, so I popped in the car and found it without trouble. Trouble. Again, there is pretty limited parking so it's kind of hit and miss whether you'll find a spot or not. Fortunately, I did. When you walk up to the place, the building itself is pretty nondescript. They have a nice selection of outside seating, and your window to order is outside. Very nice lady at the counter gave me helpful suggestions and so I ordered three tacos and an amazing lime and cucumber fresca. Went in and sat down inside and was pleasantly surprised by the interior. It definitely had more of an upscale bar vibe to it than a Taco shop. The waiter that brought out my tacos told me that it turns into more of a nightclub after hours. I may have to go check that out. The tacos themselves were absolutely off the chain! The tortillas were blue corn and everything on it tasted so fresh and so wonderful. The carnitas was fantastic, the brisket Taco was to die for and the blackened shrimp Taco was one of the best I've ever had. Had. The flavors were so balanced and on point, it was one of the most satisfying taco experiences I have had!! I will probably hit this place up a couple more times before I leave El Paso. If you are in El Paso, you probably already know about this place. But I'm telling you what you cannot go wrong for tacos and that lime/ cucumber fresca! Bottom line? It's about 10 hours drive from Las Vegas to El Paso. And this Taco shop will give me a great reason to do a road trip anytime. Do yourself a favor and go check this place out!
