Absolutely the best Mexican restaurant I've had in Rockford. I ordered the carne asada dinner with an horchata. Delivered, it was still very warm, the meat was so soft and tender and seasoned amazing. The onions and Chile were grilled perfectly. I wish the frijoles had cheese but it was still very good. The salsas had a nice spice to it, and the guacamole was very tasty as well. I can't wait to order again! read more

Decent Mexican food in Rockford. Nothing stands out. Service interaction is lacking.

I ordered the Two Tacos Dinner. One was Carnitas and the other was Barbacoa. Both tasted so good! read more

Chilangos Authentic Mexican Cuisine - Sope de asada ! - Mexican Near Me - Rockford, Illinois

They shorted me on a taco dinner after ordering three and being charged three. I called to tell them they shorted me dinner and they proceeded to lie and tell me it was an order for two dinner. It's odd the dinner cost 11.50 and I was charged 39$ total. Never again will I give this scum business again. read more

I don't understand the negative reviews. The tacos were outstanding, the salsa was very good. My wife ordered the shredded taco salad which was very tasty and perfectly balanced. A good pick for lunch! read more

I went to do a pick up order and the lady was so rude! Than to top it off she gave me the wrong order! Will take my business elsewhere from now on! read more

Food is okay. The service in there has been somewhat slow. Particularly just getting noticed by the waitstaff despite not being busy and having a chime in the door. That being said I do understand that staffing is short these days obviously. That being said I don't have time to waste during my lunch break, so I won't be back soon. read more

The tacos are absolutely phenomenal reminds me of my home and I am very happy I had the pleasure of eating here the service was amazing 10/10 I wish I could come back again maybe someday. read more

Chilangos Authentic Mexican Cuisine - 3 chorizo Tacos (3) Dinner - Mexican Near Me - Rockford, Illinois

The food actually tastes like authentic Mexican food. Imagine that, in Rockford! We ordered carryout and I had the El Pastor Tacos which were phenomenal! The tacos were overrunning with pork, pineapple, and other ingredients and the flavor was incredible. I've had authentic Mexican and Chilango's is the real deal. My better half had chicken fajitas and he was equally pleased with his, in particular the way the chicken was seasoned. We'll definitely order again and plan to make an in-person visit as soon as time permits. read more

I go there on my lunch break,I ordered 3 tacos and a drink. Tacos were mediocre and the price is outrageous for 3 tacos that weren't even up to par compared to a food truck. If you want to throw money away at half ass food, by all means enjoy. Last time visiting that place. Olivo Tacos sell 3/$5 these guys sell 3/$13 price gouging at its finest read more

First time here recommended by a friend I didn't like the food, I order a torta steak without flavor and it didn't came with tomatoes I also order a Gordita de chicharrón didn't like it either . The waiter was nice, read more

I was waiting on an oil change and wanted to find a place nearby to get lunch. Walked over to Chilangos. Nice staff. Clean restaurant. Delicious food. When trying a Mexican joint for the first time I get a veggie burrito. They fresh-grilled veggies (green pepper and onion) for it, which was a nice touch. And the seasoning in the rice was great. Served piping hot. The red salsa is key. read more

We are so happy to have found this place! 5 stars! My husband and I just moved to the south side of town and are in the process of orienting and finding all new "go to" places. Yesterday I drove by and saw Chilangos and told my husband we should try it. So we did. And it was amazing! We ordered a steak burrito and a steak taco dinner. The steak was so delicious. The prices were great. We will absolutely be back and plan to share this hidden gem with everyone we know. read more

Real authentic tacos! Rice was good beans were good but tacos we're GREAT. Service was great also and the place was very clean and inviting. Wasn't super busy and we received our food very quickly. If I had any complaint at all(which is hard to do) I would say maybe thicken the salsa a bit? The flavor was very very good. read more

I've lived 2 minutes from this place and never knew until now, and they've been there for 3 years. Upon my first visit I noticed it's a pretty cozy building but the girl at the counter told me they're expanding(good on them). I got the three Taco dinner, 2 steak and 1 pork with rice and beans. I got home and there were only two tacos in my box, but called and went to pick up my third with no other incentive. The food was pretty average and bland compared to a lot in the area, but their verde sauce was a hit for me. Don't think I'd come back unless I don't want to drive downtown read more

I just had a taco salad with chicken and a small guacamole. It was most excellent, and though I normally enjoy refried beans, I appreciated they didn't put any at the bottom. The tortilla bowl was particularly delicious. Get the extra guac and the mild red sauce. I felt fulfilled without being too full. Perfect. read more

Enchiladas verdes are delicious Horchata is delicious Torta de carne asada 0 out of 5 stars Chicken quesadilla 0 out of 5 stars The place is very small. Quaint. Salsa 0 out of 5 stars but if you ask for a hotter salsa they will bring it to you. The chips are good as well. read more

Taco Tuesday did not disappoint! Tongue taco, an authentic protein choice, was very good. But must say the chicken taco was my favorite. It was a pulled chic and the marinade had great flavor. Great lunch spot! read more

Ordered mixed fajitas, chicken quesadilla, cheese enchiladas and beef chimichanga. Chimichanga and enchiladas were very flavorful and delicious. Quesadilla was just average, no flavor stood out just bland. Fajitas were decent but a bit over cooked. Thought we ordered flour tortillas but received corn, I'm a fan hubby is not. Paid extra for a side of beans and rice for the quesadilla however we did not receive them. Chips and red salsa were amazing, but could have used a little more heat on the salsa. Staff was polite but hostess was not very sure about ingredients in items on the menu when asked. Originally tried to order the chili rellenos but they were out. Will definitely be back for the chimichanga, enchiladas and chips and salsa and hope to try the chili rellenos but will make sure I check my to go order before leaving to ensure everything is in the bag that we paid for. read more

Fantastic authentic Mexican food. Also a nice speedy delivery as well. I definitely recommend this restaurant

Everything was great! I bought $50 worth of food and everything was made fresh. It's a 20 min drive from my home and the food was still hot when I got back home. Portions are awesome. Friendly staff. This is the place to go for authenticity! You can smell it as soon as you walk in lol. Everything tastes good. read more

Such a disappointment. Barely warm unseasoned food. Cheese dip? It was the consistency of water, never seen cheese dip like that before. Dehydrated onions! I couldn't believe it, and they were old and nasty tasting. I tasted for hours and hours later. Service was good. Ticket came with no prices next to items, only the total. I didn't want to make a scene and question why the bill was so high since they didn't put prices next to each item......but we had already decided we'd never come back there, so I paid bill and left. I would never ever go back there. read more

Very disappointed! I don't even know where to begin...overpriced and under-seasoned. Had tacos with rice and beans everything was bland...even the hot sauce was just hot with no flavor. I will be going back to my regular haunt for taco Tuesday. read more

Hard to find a decent Mexican restaurant this side of town, but this place was a hidden gem for sure. Very small, quaint. They even delivery! Although both time I've orders for delivery there was a lot of mistakes. Delivery to wrong address, missing food, food wrong, etc. So we decided third time's a charm and we went inside instead. A worker had their child there running around playing, but he was quiet and behaved so it didn't bother me one bit. Not my type of salsa but the rest of the food was absolutely delicious! Perfect horchata, pombazo chilango is amazing, tacos too! Everything was hot and fresh. Bring a little cash, can't tip if you use card. Not more than maybe 8-10 tables. Very clean and fresh feeling. Definitely will return. read more

Have eaten there a couple of times,and food was good as well as the service. The Burrito was huge, almost couldn't finish it. Only ding I give them is thier sauces for chips are so so. read more

Fresh and delicious. Friendly staff. Clean, casual setting. Love supporting this locally-owned family restaurant.

Ordered the Flautas. They were delicious as well as the chicken burrito my wife ordered. Clean and the service was prompt. We plan to come back and try more of the menu! read more

Basic flavored food not any better than other places I bought different meals to see if it was worth going there for a certain meal guess not will only stop in if I am in the area and hungry otherwise won't go out of my way read more

Very friendly. But unfortunately nothing to write home about. Was looking for a Mexican place close to Cherry Valley. Like I said they were very friendly I just wish the food was a little better. read more

Great food. Made fast. And just the right price. Clean inside and friendly staff. We are always look for a good small business so we enjoyed this place. We will definitely be coming back in the future. We tried the chicken tacos, bbq tacos, and steak quesidillas. All excellent. read more
