GREAT FOOD AND SERVICE - so tasty with many food and drink choices one of my favorite restaurants to go to with friends read more

7/23/26 Our waitress -- Theresa did an excellent job. She was so patient and helpful. She was a very nice happy person. This is my 2nd time being here. And not my last. The restaurante has such a friendly, family atmosphere. I saved the best for last. I got the Hatch Chili omelette again. It impressed me with all its savory flavors. It was my husbands first time. He loved the chilaquiles suizo with chicken and an egg over easy. He is very picky about Mexican food. He loved the food. And declared that he would eat there again!! Definitely worth it. Go and try it!! read more

We recently visited Chilaquiles Modern Mexican for Sunday brunch, and while there were some nice touches, the overall experience fell short of what we were hoping for. The positives first: parking was easy since we didn't need to use valet, and we were seated almost immediately. Our server was friendly and welcoming, and the concha on the coffee was a thoughtful touch that we really enjoyed. We were seated on the patio near the entrance, and that's where things started to become less enjoyable. The music was extremely loud and felt much more like a nightclub than a Sunday brunch spot. If that's the atmosphere they're going for, that's perfectly fine--I just wish I had known beforehand. It's definitely not somewhere I'd bring my elderly parents, as carrying on a conversation required talking over the music, which also included some rap songs that didn't really fit the brunch setting. The patio itself could also use some attention. The entrance door constantly stuck open as guests came and went, creating a steady stream of traffic right beside our table. On a warm Arizona morning, the south-facing patio also felt under-cooled, and additional misting or cooling would make a noticeable difference. Service was pleasant but inconsistent. Our server was kind, but coffee refills never came, and we ended up pouring our own. Unfortunately, the regular coffee was probably the weakest part of the meal--it tasted like inexpensive bulk coffee and lacked the quality you'd expect from a restaurant putting so much effort into its menu. Speaking of the menu, it's extensive with lots of tempting choices. Once we ordered, our food arrived incredibly fast--almost surprisingly fast. While quick service is appreciated, it also made me wonder how much of the meal had been sitting ready beforehand because very little of it arrived piping hot. I ordered the Green Chile Plate with over-easy eggs, potatoes, refried beans, and corn tortillas. The eggs were cooked perfectly, but the green chile was disappointing. It leaned sweet rather than savory, had almost no spice or heat, and was only warm. I also expected a more generous serving based on the menu description and price . The breakfast potatoes had good color but were soft, oily, and lacked any crispness, tasting like they had been cooked well ahead of service and held warm. Fresh, crispy potatoes would have been worth an extra 10 to 15-minute wait. The refried beans were average and had developed a skin, suggesting they had also been sitting for a while. The corn tortillas were probably my biggest disappointment--they tasted as though they had been wrapped in foil during prep and held in a warmer rather than freshly heated on the grill. Freshly grilled corn tortillas would have helped the entire plate. My wife ordered the Chilaquiles Suiza. She thought they were good overall, though she felt they were overloaded with red onions, which overpowered some of the other flavors. She ate most of the dish minus a few super soggy chips at the end. Overall, I'd describe our experience as average. There are some interesting ideas here, the menu seems creative, and the staff seems friendly. However, the execution didn't match the concept. I'd happily trade lightning-fast service for food that's cooked fresh, served hot, and given a little more attention to detail. With a few improvements to the atmosphere, coffee, and food quality, this place has the potential to be much better. Btw.. I ultimately ended up eating just the eggs.. read more

If you're writing a review, here's a polished version that keeps your honest feedback while sounding balanced and fair: Chilaquiles Modern Kitchen has a fun and energetic atmosphere and seems to be a very popular spot within the local Latino community, especially for celebrations and gatherings. The concept is creative, the portions are generous, and the valet parking is a nice touch. Our server, Lluvia, was wonderful. She was kind, attentive, and helped us navigate the menu. Nancy also provided excellent service, bringing our silverware and food and making sure we had everything we needed. The staff was truly the highlight of our visit. The restaurant has a great vibe, although the actual location and surroundings did not quite match the impression presented on TikTok. The dining area could also benefit from a bit more attention to cleanliness. As for the food, it was decent but did not quite live up to the concept. I ordered the chicharrón breakfast dish. It was fine, but it was not what many people from Mexico would recognize as traditional chicharrón en salsa. Instead of chicharrón, it was more like pieces of pork in sauce. My husband ordered the machaca, which was okay, and our son had the Laly pancakes. They were cute, fun, and very large, but extremely sweet. The Bloody Mary was also just okay. Overall, the concept, atmosphere, and service are outstanding. The staff made us feel welcome, and the restaurant has a great energy. For us, the food was the weakest part of the experience, but the excellent service and lively environment made for an enjoyable visit. read more

I dont like to go to much into detail like most of these, "professional" critics that have nothing better to do. All i have to say is, they just have to work a bit more on checking on their tables, other than that, I really have nothing bad to say. It might come out a bit expensive, but the food is worth it, Ive gone back several times! Im really big on waiters checking on their tables, thus the 4 stars. read more

I've been meaning to check this spot out for a while, and I'm glad I finally made it. Walking up, the place has a great presence--well-kept, trendy, and full of life. It has that energy, like a spot that's already become part of the neighborhood rhythm. Inside, it's clean, modern, and slightly upscale, but still keeps a warm vibe. From the moment I walked in, the hostess was welcoming and on point--greeted me right away and got me seated quickly. The service overall, though, is what brings it down to a 3-star experience for me. I was seated near the fountain drink station, and multiple servers passed by without checking in or offering a refill. Small things like that go a long way. Now, the food--that's where it shines. I ordered the chorizo and eggs with beans and papas, and everything was excellent. The beans were rich and full of flavor, the chorizo and eggs were done right, and the potatoes were cooked perfectly. I also added a side of bacon, which was really good. They initially brought flour tortillas instead of corn, but they corrected it quickly without any issue. There's something about a good plate like that--it feels rooted. Like the kind of breakfast that reminds me of a mom making it The ambiance was great--busy, lively, and full of people enjoying themselves. I got there around 10:30 in the morning, and the place was already packed. Overall, really good experience with some room for improvement on the service side. I'll definitely be back. read more

Came here based on a hungry hotline recommendation for brunch. This place is Busy! We were seated at a high top table in the bar area, which was not ideal for having conversation, which is probably why others declined the high top table when offered. Not knowing any better we accepted. They had a live DJ playing music, but sadly it was VERY loud. This is where they lost a star from me. It was even difficult to hear the server. The restaurant was lively and service was excellent. The food was excellent! I ordered the Birria ramen, it is a little deceiving in the description of the dish as it says it is served with 3 Birria tacos, when actually it came with three tortillas filled with melted cheese, the Birria was the meat in the ramen. You could not get the tortillas apart to make a taco as the cheese was like glue. That aside, the Birria damn was delightful, spicy broth, ample noodles and meat, and eggs cooked as ordered. The potatoes in the dish had a nice flavor from the broth. Portions here are enough for two to share. The Mole chilaquiles were very good, nice mole sauce, my friend ate them all! The divorced chilaquiles were also amazing with nice meat and vegetables added. Lastly the corn quesadillas with chicken was a tasty meal that was devoured on the spot. Overall, this was a wonderful brunch spot that I would come to again, despite the loud music. read more

This meal was a whole experience, not just dinner. I ordered the molcajete platter and it came out literally bubbling with flavor. The stone bowl was loaded with tender grilled steak, juicy shrimp, smoky chicken, spicy chorizo, roasted jalapeños, cactus, grilled green onions, and a thick layer of molten cheese soaking in rich, savory salsa. Every bite had something different going on smoky, spicy, salty, cheesy all balanced perfectly. The sides of fluffy Mexican rice and creamy beans were the comfort-food finish this giant platter deserved. Now let's talk about the margarita. This spicy margarita was a little bit of a disappointment as it was not spicy and was served warm. The chile-rim gave it just the right kick, the pineapple was fresh and bright, and the jalapeño added a smooth heat that didn't overpower the drink just not the spicy I was hoping for. Presentation was . From the sizzling bowl to the beautifully garnished margarita, everything looked great. Portions were generous enough to share (but I didn't want to). Final verdict: 8/10. Come hungry, leave happy, and definitely don't skip the pineapple jalapeño margarita. read more

This is such a cute, upscale Mexican restaurant with a big focus on chilaquiles. The green and orange sauces really stand out and everything else we tried was pretty good too. My favorite item was the jalapeño margarita. I don't like my margaritas sweet in any way and this one was perfect with hardly any sweetener at all. The tequila they used (Santoro) was incredibly smooth. My partner had the mango blended margarita and said it was delicious as well. For food, I had the cóctel de camarón. It could've used a few more shrimp y aguacate but overall still deliciosos. The kids had a chilaquiles trio and a burrito, both got two thumbs up. Our guest tried the molcajete de cielo, mar y tierra. She doesn't like nopales but said everything else was delicious. My partner had the chile relleno and really enjoyed it. Service was decent with friendly staff, but they did forget a couple of things. Nothing major, just could be a bit more attentive. My only other suggestion is to maybe turn up the AC a bit since it was a little warm inside. Overall, we left happy and full. I'd definitely come back to try more dishes. I'll be back for the jalapeño margarita. read more

The service is not good. The employees seem bothered when asking for something. The food is always good. I always get the chilaquiles and they never miss.

Well wifey wanted to try this place because she said everytime she drives by it's packed. Saturday morning 940ish it was pretty busy but no wait. Cool vibe in the restaurant and it was packed. Ordered menudo of course and the chilaquiles trio. Also orders the caffe de olla with concha. Caffe de olla brought back some memory of Mexico City. That's where I last tasted the caffe.. Caffe was yummy with nice cinnamon taste. Concha was also yummy nice and fresh. My menudo came and I initially I thought bowl was smaller than some of the other places. But that small bowl was pack with goodies. Broth had nice clean tasting and was not overly oily on top. The chilaquiles was something else.. I don't usually order it but I can say of all the ones I've had this place was the best. Red sauce was my favorite and every single bite of the chips it tasted fresh and crispy. Not one of them over double fried hard chips. Eggs were also cooked perfect. Over all the food was awesome and staffs were very friendly and attentive. Not too many times I come to a restaurant where my head move around looking at what other people are eating. I would definitely come back here again and try other dishes. Only thing bad I have to say is the music is little bit on the loud side (reminded me of being at a club back in the days ). Also the place is little on the small side with lots of people so it was loud and top it off with loud music. So if you can't handle or don't like loud noisy restaurant don't come here on busy day. Other small detail was that initially I told the server I was going to pay with card so I got 3% fee added to my bill that I paid cash for.. Lame.. read more

This was my second time here, my friend wanted to celebrate her birthday here. The food was good but my favorite was the michelada! I was eating and enjoying each bite! Our server was amazing and checked on us often. The service was also pretty fast. This time the music and the vibes definitely matched since we were celebrating. I do not think that it's the best family place. It is more of a brunch with the girls place! read more

Came here for brunch for the first time and had a really great experience. Parking was a bit of a challenge at first, but once we got in, everything else made up for it. The wait was about 30 minutes, which I expected, but it flew by thanks to the DJ and lively atmosphere. We brought my elderly mom, and I really appreciated how kind and accommodating the staff was, they made sure we were both comfortable. Our waiter Joel was great! He was very attentive without being overbearing and super helpful with menu suggestions. The food came out hot, fresh, and full of flavor. The guacamole was a standout, and the margaritas were definitely on point! My mom enjoyed everything (chicken fajitas) from the food to the music and overall vibe which made the experience even better for me. Good vibes, great food, and a welcoming environment. I'll definitely be back with more people! read more

I have had this place on my list for a few years now and finally had a reason to make a two hour drive there when my bestie was in Phoenix area for the holidays. I take my chilaquiles very seriously. In fact, I am a self proclaimed expert/aficionado from years and years ago after first trying my sister-in-laws chilaquiles and deciding it was in my top 5 favorite foods of all time. Over the years, I have tried hundreds of chilaquiles versions - my SIL's being the bar that had to be met. This lovely restaurant was quite busy for a Friday late morning, everyone I encountered here was super warm and friendly. We were sat at a high top in the bar and our server was very attentive. We ordered a couple of guava mimosas and both went for the chilaquiles trio. I am not a big fan of meat with my chilaquiles but I did the birria and she went with the default of carne asada. Drinks were good, a smidge heavy on the guava juice. The food came out pretty quickly and portions were hearty (we could have split). They mixed up our meats (she did the default over medium, I can't do anything but scrambled) but it was fine we just ate off each others plates since we had planned on sharing the protein anyway. She had never had chilaquiles before, and enjoyed her meal. Me, well I have had plenty to compare these to and give them 3.5/5 (red was a 4). The flavor was good, but the green was very dry - almost as if chips were tossed on a plate and sauce sparingly poured on them. Juarez sauce was flavorful, but same thing, super crispy tortilla strips... so if you like that, you will definitely like these. Red was nice balance of soft/but precooked prior to sauce being added. My fave is red, particularly if made with hatch red chiles. Ambiance, service and food make this a solid 4 star joint and I would definitely come back if I was in the area again or near their other two locations. read more

This place is a hidden gem for sure. Now it is loud, music bumping, a little birthday party accompanied by a shot; that's the vibe. If you go in expecting that you will have a great time. Our service was great, they were PACKED when we went and it took about 30 minutes to get seated, but when we were our waiter was attentive, very kind, and had several recommendations. The food itself was excellent, I tried a little of everything. The titular chilaquiles were phenomenal, the pancakes were very fluffy, and overall the entire meal was great. Conchas run out fast so be sure to get one, ours came out warm and it was fantastic. Overall I had a very good time. Table size can be on the smaller side depending on where you get sat so just keep that in mind. Overall very pleased and we will probably venture out again. read more

Went on a Saturday after 2pm, happy hour had just begun so I got a michelada, that was good, really good actually. Sooooo many great choices on the menu I spent a while trying to decide on a good dish to choose. Narrowed it down to two choices and asked the bartender which was better and he said the menudo so I ordered it. Honestly the menudo was good but I felt like it was missing a spice factor. The menudo was very tame when it came to the spicy aspect but the flavor aspect was great. I asked for chile flakes and lime then I dressed it up and it was so good! The bread they provided to accompany my menudo was soft and perfect for dipping read more

Great food and drinks! Lots of options for every taste bud. The drinks were great as well. The limonada was so refreshing too. The chile replenished was delicious. The beans were definitely from the can and the rice was just ok. My mom had the Milanese and said it was so good. I would return again and try something new for sure. The building is deceiving from the outside. I walked in to a very modern decor and didn't expect it. Service was ok. It wasn't busy but our server was a little slow and did forget our waters but not the end of the world. read more

We absolutely love this place. We Love the food, the service and atmosphere. We actually have gotten better service here than at the Signal Butte location, but the fact that we are now forced to Valet our car on Sundays I guess we either have go to Signal Butte or just not come at all. It's great that you have Valet, but I don't like people in or driving my cars unless they are my mechanic's. It's a trust this issue. If things change we definitely will stay with the this location. read more

This place had a cool vibe when you walk in. Lots of neon and artwork. Our server was very friendly and attentive. The table was nice and clean. However the food was slightly overpriced for what you get. I am fine paying more for food but the flavor also has to be there. It may have just been what I ordered but I will probably go back at some point to try something else on the menu. read more

We started with the iced coffee. One mocha and one caramel. I didn't have high expectations because it says iced coffee and not iced latte, so when the mocha came out and tasted just like a slightly bitter chocolate milk, that was fine. Unfortunately, the caramel one was undrinkable. It was so sweet, I couldn't get past the first sip, it was like drinking straight sugar. For our meals we got the croque madam and the breakfast sopes. Both were plentiful in food, and quite tasty. The issue I had were with the side of potatoes. They were wet, and you could see the oil pooling at the bottom. All I could taste was the oil. Overall I think the entrees are where they shine and are worth going for. read more

The service was exceptional, and the food was well seasoned and tasty. The music and close tables do make it loud, so if you enjoy a quieter atmosphere I would go on off hours.
