    Birria Queso Taco
    Chris W.

    Amazing food amazing first experience! We will be back. They even had amazing Margaritas!!

    The Birria tacos are very good and a decent amount of meat in them. The rice is good but could do without the peas and carrots. The pineapple drink is not too sweet and very good Plenty of help for fast service and a spacious dining area with lots of tables. I will be back.

    Wow! I think I've found my new favorite Mexican restaurant!!! Tacos Chilango is a casual Mexican restaurant in the Fry's shopping center on Dysart road in Avondale. We met our son and daughter-in-law here for lunch after listening to them rave about it for several weeks. Our son loves birria tacos and he loves these. Our daughter-in law had the carne asada tacos and enjoyed them. They have some dishes I haven't seen before: Machete and Huaraches. My wife and I decided to try the Huaraches. She had chicken and I had carnitas. They were amazing! Huaraches have flat, slightly thicker than normal oblong blue corn tortilla base. The beans, meat, Fresca cheese and cojita cheese are on top. There is mozzarella and lettuce on the side. I went to the salsa bar. They keep everything refrigerated and ask you to keep the lid closed when you're not using it. There was a good selection of salsas and other toppings. I selected cilantro/onion and two different green salsas. After preparing everything, I dug in. The meat had a light smokiness that really set the dish apart. I will be back.

    Full video review: https://youtu.be/YET5WmsDRZA Tucked away in a quiet stretch of Litchfield Park you will discover Tacos Chilango's authentic Mexico City flavors. This place is where quality and hospitality come together for the kind of honest, soul-satisfying food that reminds you why tacos became a global obsession in the first place. The smell of grilled meat hits you before you even reach the door. Their tacos al carbón are charred just right. Folded into warm, handmade tortillas you're in for the real deal. You'll find birria that drips with flavor, machetes that feed the hunger of a long day, and queso shrimp tacos with that perfect crispy edge. It's food made by people who care deeply, and that care is evident in every bite. No pretense. No shortcuts. Just damn good food, served by people who know exactly what they're doing.

    Great service and a welcoming atmosphere. The pork belly and pastor tacos were by far the best ones we had. Both packed with flavor. The pastor with pineapple was a nice balance. The chicken was just average and the asada was fatty. They both lacked seasoning. The chips were nice a crunchy. The pineapple frescas was delicious!!! They have a salsa bar. 3 types of salsa, onions and cilantro, cucumbers, and limes. This was close to a 2 star, but again, the pork belly, pastor, and pineapple frescas were really good.

    OK, OK! I have done reviews on Mexican food in the valley and I will say that this spot is absolutely hands-down the best!! When I tell you that my queso chicken taco was bomb.com-scrumptiouslyishish... OoooooMmmmmmmmGggggggg Goooooood?!?! STOP IT! So so so good. Our food was amazing my husband said he'd drive here for now on to get Mexican food. If you know him... that leaves me speechless . We had a great time and I'm glad we got there when we did because after we got there and got our food and sat down everybody and their grandma showed up. There was a line. I am so happy this place is here and not too far from us. I mean it ain't down the street but I will drive here to eat. OK! The place isn't huge but it's quaint and nice and got some pictures on the wall. Customer service was a plus. They were friendly, courteous, and nice and greeted you when you came in and greeted you when you went out. They have a bar area as well. Check the pictures on what we ordered because I can't even begin to write this all down OK. Just get here when you can and give it a try and come back for more. You know a place is good when their rice and beans are on point OK fresh! They're very tasty like flavorful OK! Marinated for days type flavor! The bar was great for all your toppings. And don't even get me started on the green salsa and the light green salsa. OMG so delicious you could put it on everythang. Thank you for having us Tacos Chilango. Keep up the great work and keep serving up them queso tacos.

    We have now made repeated visits to Tacos Chilango, and it has proved far better than my first experience. I was hesitant to return after a somewhat lackluster birria on my first visit. My second and subsequent visits, however, were a much improved. 1. Try the shrimp queso taco. Just trust me. 2. My husband got a few tacos (regular tacos are "street" sized, queso tacos are larger) and was floored by the asada and al pastor. He spent 2 years eating authentic Mexican cooking, and this is the flavor he's been missing ever since. Highly recommend. 3. The aguas frescas are fantastic--watermelon is my favorite, but the cantaloupe (melón) and hibiscus are also tasty. My daughter loves their horchata. Honorable mention to the quesadillas and huaraches (similar to tostadas with toppings). This is our go-to taco shop, these days. Glad I gave it another chance.

    I went again to try a burrito and a few tacos to bring home after I had a bad experience with them the first time with small portions. When I got home my burrito was mostly filled with beans and rice and very little meat. I had cut the burrito in half and measured the meat and it barely filled a measuring cup 1/3 full. I couldn't believe my eyes. I called the manager who told me everything is measured. I told her I'm going back to Oscar's taco where a burrito is filled with just the meat, for only 50 cents more. My Oscar's taco burrito is Almost 2 cups worth of pork meat. I won't waste my time at tacos chilango ever again.

    The owner of this business is a complete liar and a crook. Do not eat here unless you plan on getting food poisoning. The employees are rude and condescending. THEY SERVE UNCOOKED CHICKEN. Several people have told me about issues they have had with this establishment. NOT GOOD BUSINESS. You lost a someone who could have been a repeat customer. Instead of owning your mistake and doing better. I'm telling everyone I know AND many people who I don't know to NEVER EAT HERE. THEY POISONED A PREGNANT WOMAN. *The chips in the picture are from Sprouts Market and were the only edible part of mine or my family's meals.

    No name on receipt wrong item entered by Alondra

    My son ordered a burrito and a CHICKEN quesadilla. The young lady who answered the phone did not understand or misunderstood the order. She entered burrito and CHEESE quesadilla....She also do not ask for a name for the order so when I got there, she asked me to read off the items, when I kept trying to give her my name she kept saying, what was the order not the name....When I called to inform her of the error there was no accountability taken. She just kept going back and forth with me about she heard quesadilla so she thought it was a cheese quesadilla. The only resolution provided to fix this problem was pay the difference for the chicken and they'll put it on the side!! I asked for a manager she said no manager is there just staff only.... How ridiculous!!! This place used to be my favorite place not anymore. One mistake like this can lose a great customer for good. I will not refer anyone to this dysfunctional language barrier company!

    Campechano Burrito
    Jeremy L.

    I wanted to like this place, but it just didn't work for me. They were pretty busy, which mean it was LOUD (not their fault really), but it kinda chaotic, regardless. Four of us ate, all liked the food well enough, but nobody was blown away. I had the Campechano, which would have been good, but the chorizo was really dominant. Kinda just all tasted like MEAT. I was really bored of it by the end. Bonus points for the salsa bar. Some fun extra things, and I liked that you can add your own onions and cilantro to the tacos (for wimps like me who hate onions).

    Tacos of: Carne asada, Al Pastor, Grilled Chicken, and a Campechano.

Inside dining wasn't very big, but it was an off time, so there was plenty of seating available. They serve chips and salsa as soon as you sit. The chips were fresh and barely salted (which we like). I always ask for some guacamole with mine, I'm not a big salsa eater. Hubby really liked the salsa, but the guac was excellent!! Hubby ordered the 2 Cheese Enchiladas and I got the Large Taco Plate (I chose Carnitas and Al Pastor). They were served alongside rice and beans. The beans were nice and runny with cheese melted over. Hubby really enjoyed his enchiladas...they looked good, too. I asked for no cilantro (not a fan), so they doubled down on the onions, I guess. So many onions, I could barely make out what was in my tacos...LOL! After getting rid of some of them, I dug in. The tortillas were a bit dense, so I ended up taking the meats out of them and mixing it up with the rice/beans. The Carnitas were very tender, as was the Al Pastor.

While we waited, the woman who took our order brought out a basket of chips with refried beans and fresco queso on top with a side of salsa. Woah! What? Epic. But wait! A few minutes later, a precious girl with the most warm inviting, and beautiful smile came out with 2 warm, homemade corn tortillas, with salsa and cheese for us. These were just complimentary extras we didn't expect at all. Soo good. The restaurant is a humble place. Cute, clean, inviting and roomy. There is an inside seating area and an outdoor section. Someone was grilling meat out front. I think, the owner. I ordered a chili relleno combo. It comes with rice, beans, tortillas, and a drink.

I stopped by on a Saturday night to finally check it out. As soon as I walked in, I noticed the trompo right away, which is always a good sign. I stepped up to the counter and was greeted with a warm smile from the young lady up front. After looking over the menu, I ordered two tacos de tripa and two tacos de suadero. She asked if I wanted the tripas extra crispy I said no. I also asked how they prepare the suadero since I didn't see a choricera, but she wasn't sure. When the food came out, the tripas were a letdown. The texture was off, almost like a stale chip, and they were clearly overcooked. I asked if I could swap them for something safer, so I went with asada instead, but that didn't impress either. It didn't taste very fresh. Now here's the reason you should come to Tacos Chilangos: the suadero. Even though it's not cooked the traditional way, it was absolutely delicious. Perfect meat-to-fat ratio, super flavorful, and easily the standout. The guacamole salsa was top tier. I kept going back to that one over the others. All in all definitely stop by to try the suadero as for as the other two I'd would probably give them a second try.
