    ** RICE BOWL**
    Sharon L.

    So glad I stopped by this place! I got the bowl and everything tasted so fresh, flavorful, and delicious! I would definitely come back if in the area. The workers were great and the inside of the restaurant is very spacious and clean. I recommend and can't wait to be back.

    So glad I came across this place! I am visiting from Los Angeles and I will say that this place is delicious! Quick tip, if you like your tortilla a little crispy as for it to be extra heated. It comes out very soft, yet still delicious! To each their own :) Overall meat was seasoned very well and they are very generous with their portions!

    When I laugh at bad Tex Mex, I go bajajajajaja. The food here is more 3 star and it's definitely not Mexican but more American style like an unhealthy Chipotle perhaps if you will. Like Baja Fresh in Cali but slightly more fresh (LOL). The reason I upgrade it from 3 to 4 stars is because there are a couple of tasty things on the menu and I've been here a few times now and it's packed with fun people and college people (mutually exclusive, jk), and it's open till 2 in the morning - I can't really ask for more than that - and I'm talking even on unfashionable weekdays.

    Came to Providence for the first time and my friend had to take me here! I can say that it did not disappoint. The chicken quesadillas tasted great, however the pico de gallo was on another level!! We also got the chips and salsa and they were also delightful!

    Came here while in town for work. My little cousin goes to URI and suggested we try this place out. It was Taco Tuesday, so I figured why not?! We arrived on Tuesday evening, so the place was packed with college students - no biggie. I look about 19 and fit right in....right. So it's your typical taco spot, you order closest to the door and work your way down until you get to the cashier. They have tacos, burritos, fajitas, whatever you want! They have soooo many toppings. For a rinky dink taqueria, they sure get packed and the customer service is great too! Thank you Novely for showing us such kindness while we were in town! Great service goes a long way. She was super helpful with everything and really made us feel at home since it was my first time there. I got a chicken and shrimp taco. I must've added at least 6-7 toppings on my tacos. They were so large I could barely hold them together to take a bite. So sorry for the people who had negative experiences here. The bad reviews seem to be more based on service than food, which is crazy because I had such a positive experience all around. If you've never been here, don't let the bad reviews deter you. I had a great time and left super stuffed. Oh and I got a side of fries and they were the good, big fries, golden and fresh out of the fryer - just how I like them. The verdict? Soooooo goood, take me back!

    Vegetable tacos in a hard shell are so good and they aren't stingy with their toppings! The shrimp quesadilla is also tasty and again they are generous with toppings! The chips are good, the only thing negative I can say is that their cheese sauce isn't very flavorful!

    One of my favorite places for a date or to bring friends! I feel like I'm always talking about how…read moremuch I love it here. The menu is small and yet there's always plenty of yummy things to try when I go, even as a picky eater. There are multiple vegetarian and even a vegan option or two. I always have to get the guac when I come here - it's the perfect amount of creaminess without too much onion. Their red salsa is a great slightly chunky - slightly juicy texture and has a bit of a kick. The vegan burrito bowl is my go-to as a vegetarian, and the street corn side as an app is elite! It is a little spicier these days since the recipe was updated from on the cob to off the cob (I much prefer off for ease of eating and sharing!) The Coconut Cartel margarita was creamy and smooth and went down *quick* haha. Others in my party loved the spicy Margarito, although they were out of the main spicy tequila but the servers offered substitute recommendations. I came with a very large work group today, and the servers were so patient and flexible when we asked for modifications from the menu. I even was able to order the queso dip with the chorizo on the side (yummy but very thick cheese dip!), and they were very attentive of my colleague's mushroom allergy and made sure she got dedicated dishes, even when we were all sharing apps. The churro donuts seem to have changed recipe and got mixed reviews - some thought they were dry, another says she Uber Eats just those regularly Sitting outside in the summer on the patio is nice. Tasty, interesting dishes with modern urban twists on Mexican recipes. Truly the only slight downside is that sometimes parking can be tricky in this area, but you can always find free street parking, it may just take you a little bit. Even the funky and creative decor is a selling feature for me. A must-try!

    DELICIOUS! Their happy hour has changed a bit but they are still as good as ever- they even now let…read moreyou mix and match tacos for a platter- yay! Fantastic service and cool bar area- I always recommend this place to friends who are in the area! *Crispy fish tacos are still my favorite item on the menu. Carnitas tacos are my 2nd favorite but I need to try their Al Pastor next time! They also have really good chips and guacamole.

    I found Chilangos by serendipity: we were looking for a Mexican restaurant that was open on Tuesday…read moreand we liked the menu on the website because the food was true Mexican food, not the usual Americanized Mexican. So we took a chance. And we were not at all disappointed! First, we were greeted warmly, in a genuine way, by the owner. They seemed genuinely glad to have us. The older gentleman was friendly and playful towards my son. The food was delicious! I had enchiladas with housemate mole. The mole was fantastic: complex and nuanced. My daughter had enchiladas verde, which was smothered in a poblano salsa that was also complex, with great green heat. My son ordered the arracherra, a peppercorn rubbed steak served with homemade guacamole and a delicious cactus salad. I was tempted by several other dishes, particularly the enchiladas mineras (beef cheeks - yum!). All in all, a warm, welcoming, delicious experience that made me want come back. And I will.

    I used to come here all the time when I lived in Providence. In the three times I've been back over…read morethe last few years, I've had a couple stellar experiences and one subpar experience. But I'm someone that believes anyone can have an off day so overall this place is really great. First and foremost, get the margarita. They are the best I've ever had. Also, get the tacos. Even as an app they're so great. I got the shrimp and a veg recently. I've enjoyed all of the entrees I've ever gotten. Honorable mention is the shrimp Diablo. Super spicy and delightful. The interior is warm, cozy, and a perfect combo of lit enough so you can see but dark enough to set a mood for spilling tea or flirting with your date. Equal parts good for girls night and good for date night. The not so great: I got flautas once and they fell flauta (haha). Also, it's sometimes a one man show so service can be slow especially if you need refills so be sure to order multiple drinks at a time, or better yet a pitcher. Street parking can be a real pain but sometimes you get lucky on a side street. Definitely worth a visit if you've never been!
