Ladies and gentlemen my new first place taco award goes to Taqueria Los Chachalacos. While taking our Uber ride we asked our driver where the best taco in the area was and he recommended this place. The power of conversation led us to the destination and oh what a sensation, and we hit the beach afterwards for some relaxation. Best tacos I ever had hands down. Flavor, meat portions you name it they nailed it. read more

SKIP THIS Restaurant. It's a rainy day and it's close to my hotel so I let my daughter pick this place. Should have heed the Yelp review. Open air seating looking at the street. Be careful. Guac and chip is not complimentary. Tacos are below average. Chorizo is dry. So many servers but service is slow.18% tip is written on the bill (not printed) and waiter insisted on that even after I questioned the amount. Just leave me a bad taste. This must be a scam practice of the business owner forcing down the waiters. Hence 1 star review read more

Carrillo was excellent in his service and offered great recommendations. We were amazed by the variety of sauces. The complimentary nachos and guacamole was delicious. Loved the tacos: shrimp, fish and Pastor. Horchata was a good choice to balance the spiciness of the tacos. Grilled banana dessert looked interesting. We were too full to try this time ;) read more

Service was excellent. Food was really tasty. Very reasonable priced and nice atmosphere. The only drawback was that it's very noisy!!! Right on the main drag! And man did it sound and feel like a drag strip!! We were worried about a bus or car swerving and coming right into the tables. Other than that excellent. read more

Food and service was amazing! We have a timeshare here in Cancun and this is our go to spot for tacos

The service was good at first till another lady who wasn't even our server to begin with DEMANDED a tip. I asked for my change back so I could give her a tip and she threatened to call the cops on me. I find that ridiculous as in here in America we have to work for our tips not just expect it. I kept telling her that I always leave a tip on the table as I've been here three times the whole time I've been in Cancun. She kept saying that we use the restroom and that was never the case. I also said if you charged for the restroom then why didn't you have someone standing there asking for a five cent peso like other places. This was ridiculous and I will never be back. Their food tasted like shit for the service and tip tips that they expected us to leave. read more

This restaurant conveniently located near isla mall in hotel zone. Food was different but mediocre. Service started well but became inattentive after food arrived and when requesting the check. The thing that upset me the most is when you sit down they brought chips with some guacamole and sauces. I said there must be a mistake we didn't order yet the waiter said something to the effect that we thought it was included. I watched the same thing happen at multiple tables. When we received the bill we obviously were charged for the chips and salsa which we did not order read more

0 stars. Don't waste your time here. The manager Cesar was extremely rude to my family. I would warn you if you're colored (POC) because he seemed racist. I knew something was off when we patiently waited over 30 minutes even though the restaurant was empty and Cesar didn't acknowledge us. There were 2 other parties who ordered and got their food fast before we can even order drinks and water. When he finally started to take our order, he didn't allow my mom to finish speaking and moved on to the next. He ended up canceling our order and took our menus away when she tried ordering again and refused to serve us. We ended up at another Taqueria down the street called La Chinampa who provided us with quick and great service. I'm really disappointed because the food looks great but not worth the negative treatment. read more

Taqueria Los Chachalacos - Jarritos! & tacos Al pastor! - Tacos Near Me - Cancún, ROO

Best thing we ate in Cancun! Great bang for your buck AND the food was delicious. Must order: queso fundido with chorizo, fish tacos, Al pastor tacos, churros, horchata Queso fundido with chorizo: delicious and cheesy, oily but out of this world. Came with tortillas Fish tacos: perfectly fried and seasoned. Other joints don't salt or season their fish tacos. The chipotle sauce pairs perfectly Al pastor: best taco meat. Comes with pineapple slices Churros: freshly fried, Dulce de leche is delicious Sauces: they have a variety of salsas that range from mild to spicy. Add so much flavor to the tacos Skip: carne asada, banana with Dulce de leche, skip the chocolate for churros and get Dulce de leche Customer service: amazing. Fast, friendly Bathrooms on site Fed 8 people for $80 USD Highly recommend. So good we had to come back a second time before we left! read more

Taqueria Los Chachalacos - Al Pastor - Tacos Near Me - Cancún, ROO

Right off of the hotel zone area, this place seems to be a better spot for local tacos. Of course with tourist pricing I thought the food were just "aight". Its open air facility, which means no a/c. I can only imagine how hot it'll be in the summer. They do this thing where after they take your drink orders, they'll bring the drinks out with a buncha of chips/queso/salsa, only to understand that if you agree to take it, they'll charge you a premium amount for it. Generally this stuff is free (Minus the queso). However props to them for having a huge range of hot sauces they bring out with your tacos. I got their pork torta, which surprisingly wasn't bad at all. Their tacos were decent, but they were enhanced by extra cilantro, onion and hot sauces. Pricing was better than US, but way more expensive for Mexican standards. Definitely being part of the hotel zone, they try to maximize their profits. Which I don't really care for. None of the less, I had a good time and price was reasonable (Not cheap). Props for having high chairs? Yeah I'm at the bottom of the barrel for compliments. read more

Clarification: We went to a different Taqueria Los Chachalacos but it is only 7-10 min drive away from this location. Ambiance: 5/5 Very casual. Loved the atmosphere. Music was not too loud and we got a table at the front. Service: 5/5 Once we were seated, the waitress came by and immediately started to take our order. Food: 6/5 Started off the meal with chips and an assortment of salsas. We got (free?) refills of the chips and salsas when we ran out- don't quote me on the free refill though. BEST TACOS we had on our three day trip. The al pastor taco was just good but I loved the chunk of fresh pineapple. The chorizo taco was spectacular and full of spices and rich flavors, but my hands-down winner was the shrimp taco and the fish taco. It was so tender and well battered. If you have shrimp/shellfish allergies, I'd recommend to be careful ordering the fish tacos as I believe they use the same fryer and frying oil for shrimp tacos. I dream of that shrimp taco still to this day. Also, I insist you have the flan. It is a must try. read more

For was great and fresh. Device was pleasant and fast. And you are on 5th Avenue so noisy and busy but still enjoyable!! Will be back.

Good food lousy lousy service. We ordered a very simple nacho plate to share and a dessert our waiter forgot both and just never showed up periodically. Had to go in and get my own bill and ask for assistance. If they could get service improved they'd be great. Prices and food were good and they had nice amounts of seating indoors and in the mall itself. read more

Price/quality (4/4): I came here on more than 1 occasion and ordered multiple different items, including 2 soups and most if not all of the tacos on the menu. They were all amazing. The drinks were great too. Service (1/1): Service was friendly and effective. Would I come here again: If I go to Cancun again, absolutely. read more

Taqueria Los Chachalacos - Al pastor - Tacos Near Me - Cancún, ROO

Joyce waited on my wife and I. She did a pretty good job and was patient with us. We got several drinks and several dishes. And then a few more. The place has good food. Challenge is garbage from a remodel behind the wall on the lagoon side. Decent food and prices. Be aware that ordering an item is one thing even if three are shown in the photo. read more

Service was slow. Food was good but for the amount you get overpriced. I ordered a pina colada and it was terrible. White foamy water. Very disappointing. And to top it off when the waiter spoke to me and I explained I didn't understand what he was saying - he rolled his eyes at me. read more

Solid place for dinner in the hotel zone. Lots of items to choose from! I ordered 3 pastor tacos and a mango margarita. Service was fast and if you're not full you can definitely order more later. Loved the variety of sauces to choose from. read more

First and foremost, this food sucked. When I asked for the bill, the lady came and handed me it while demanding a tip as I gave her the money. I kept telling her that when she gives me the change, I will give her a tip, but she didn't like that answer. She kept telling me that the tip was not included and that I use the restroom so I needed to give her another tip. She wasn't even my waiter, so I don't understand why she deserves the tip. I told her if that was the case then why didn't she have someone standing in the restroom asking for money like the other places do. She threatened to call the cops on me after I kept demanding her for my change. In the end, I just told her to keep it because I leave tomorrow and clearly she's desperate enough and needs the money more than I do. This is not how we do things in the United States and some places especially this one needs a lesson on hospitality, warmth, and how to treat their clients. I was disgusted on the way that they acted. I will never be back again. This was very upsetting as this is the third time I've been to this restaurant during my trip and I've never had a problem or seen this lady. When I was explaining to her the issue, she just looked at me with stupid eyes and had nothing to say because she knew I made sense. read more

I will start this review off with the Ambiance. The restaurant is not big 15-18 tables and definitely had an intimate vibe. It is open air so don't expect AC. The trompo is cooked hot and fresh in front of you. The service was absolutely amazing. Our waiter was very attentive and always followed up if we needed anything. The food came out hot and fast. I don't think we were waiting more than 5 mins after we ordered. I saved the best for last; the food! I ordered 6 pastor tacos, and 3 steak tacos. My son ordered a chicken torta. My daughter ordered chicken tostadas volcanos. My wife ordered steak nachos. The pastor tacos were definitely the highlight and were incredibly delicious. The tortillas were home made and paired perfectly with the pastor. The steak was good but the pastor was better. To finish off the dinner we ordered churros and a plantain. The churros were crips on the outside and soft in the middle. They came with chocolate dipping sauce and it was great. The plantain was also very good. We Will definitely be back! read more

After getting suckered into spending $400+ on meals and drinks for a family of four. We stubbled on chachalacas. What a blessing. Very good pastor tacos and service was very attentive. It's not white table cloths and $30 drinks- but was good food at a very fair price. Great service from Carolina!! So attentive and friendly! AND- she spoke much better English than my Spanish. . read more

Our only taco experience in Cancun was not the best. Came here and the waiter Eduardo brought chips/guac/beans upon sitting down. Surprise! He charged us for them on our bill when we didn't even order them. Keep your eye out! The music is not even in tune with Mexican music. The salsa aren't authentic and are served in plastic jars. read more

beware . they charge you for guacamole and literally 7 chips. the receipt said tip not included. but my total was $371 pesos mx. which our waiter decided to tip himself $5 peso mx. which we do not care but do not dictat what i leave and what i do not leave. tacos al pastor sucked and full of fat and flavorless. read more

Great tacos it was really quick service , it's right near hotel zone.. also big dining area

The Taqeria was one of my favorite spots to visit when in Cancun! They have many options on their venue. I loved their tacos especially! It's fresh and I love the toppings they added to it such as the pineapple. Plus their chips and guacamole were delicious and same with the Leche flan! It's a great spot to visit and the service is quick. Plus there's plenty of seating for big groups too! Highly recommend stopping by! read more

Awesome place to grab tacos. They have all kinds of tacos on the menu. The costras are a "keto"option and the tostadas with guac and nopal with cheese are yummy meatless option. We ordered the pastor tacos that come with pieces of pineapple so good! They bring three sauces and the typical onion and cilantro with limes. We ordered a couple of each of the meat tacos and the volacanes. See pics. read more

Absolutely terrible service. My family left a tip and the waiter wouldn't let us leave until we tipped him MORE money because he "needed to pay the rest of the workers." He got multiple parts of our order wrong. We didn't even get our drinks until 20 minutes after sitting down - and we had to ASK twice after ordering our drinks. This place an absolute scam, don't go here. WORST restaurant I've been to in Cancun. read more

Great location and signage but the food falls short. Beans pureed and served cold. Tortillas were nothing special and mediocre. Tortillas fell apart when eating the tacos. Guacamole and chips delicious with a nice presentation. Sauces delicious. Churros better tasing from Pollo Loco. Service was great but bland carne asada chicken tacos, rice and beans. Drinks looked good too but I didn't order one. Prices were fair. read more

Food was amazing!!! Second day in Cancun. The best Baja fish tacos!! Please add all the condiments they bring to your table. I highly recommend the guacamole salsa with an additional salsa of choice. Also I highly recommend the Paloma( Tequila and Fresa) made fresh! You can also add a additional shot with this as they serve you the whole soda and pour the tequila right in front of you read more

Terrible service. Racist employees. How are you going to make customer pay you for exploiting them for your own sick feelings of racial superiority? We came into the shop filled with excitement as we were looking forward to tasting tacos in Mexico for the first time. When we walked in, the place was quiet, no one greeted us so we walked back to where the chef was and said hi. Before I had an opportunity to ask the chef about where to sit, I heard an incredibly massive inhumane and animalistic scream. It was so loud, every diner, every person walking out in the street stopped and looked in pure shock. I turned around and notice it came from the waiter. I could feel the blood drain from my face at this point. Once turned facing him, the first thing he says when he opened his mouth was "do you need a bathroom? Do you need take out? I am beyond in shock. This is the first taqueria that I've ever been to in the entire world that greets customers like this. This place must have golden toilets that help you shoot out golden poop because that's the first thing he asked when customers first walk in. When it was time to pay the bill, the other waiter glared at us like we are beneath him and tampered with the machine and left us no option to leave 0 tips! I should've left as soon as the first waiter inhumanly screamed at us. Originally came to Mexico for therapeutic reasons and now I'm going back to the states with an urgent need to see therapy after this. Please come here if you find joy in paying to experience frequent jumps from your seat from unexpected screaming while eating your over priced mediocre tacos. Ultimate best place to experience customer exploitation, racism and exclusion. Halloween might be the best time to come here. This place will have you jumping out of your seat. read more
