We visited this location at lunch time on a Wednesday and we were seated immediately. The…read morerestaurant is bright and beautifully decorated. We ordered the steak burrito bowl and chipotle chicken. We waited quite a while for our food. The food was hot, fresh, and delicious. Unfortunately, the service was terrible. Our server disappeared and we didn't see him for the last half of our meal. My lunch date was on his lunch break and in a time crunch. I had to go to the front counter and find an employee to track down our server so we could get the check and a to-go box. My date was late back to work because of the lag in service. Pretty disappointed with this visit.

Oh my oh my. This food will make your mouth water every time you think about it. This is the best and only Mexican in town. Reborto is the baddest man in the kitchen. He remembers our order now. And yes we go about once a week. This place is worth the money. Plus the atmosphere is wonderful. If you want amazing Mexican food that you can pick and choose what goes on it, then this place is for you. I have made 3 people start eating here now. read more

Love their burritos. Better than Cipotle's and Hot Head Burritos. Also quite happy they are in my neighborhood so I don't need to travel to the eastside or westside of Evansville for my Mexican cravings. Looking forward to my next visit. read more

Chavas is the type of friendly neighborhood burrito shop I grew up with in California. None of the chain burrito shops (qdoba,chipotle, Moes, Hot Head). Stop in for a burrito or one of the many other menu options. read more

For an appetizer…read morewe ordered Guacamole Mexicano, it was thick, not runny, and it was mixed well with diced tomatoes and onions. Not spicy at all. For the entrée, we ordered mixed Fajitas and Fiesta Fajita Mexicana, both came with a side of rice, beans, salad, sour cream, guacamole and tortillas (recommend maiz instead of flour) They are large portions and came sizzling! When having a big meal, you need to have a big drink. My partner ordered a large maragarita, unfortunately, her drink was weak. Also, we were seated at a table that was wobbly which could have spilled our drinks or salsa. I recommend trying Acapulco if you want to have a small latin experience with music, decor, and of course, sizzling fajitas!

I ordered the steak bowl (it's usually a lunch item, but he had everything on hand and happily made it for me). Honestly, some of the best steak I've had recently -- super flavorful, perfectly cooked, and the chimichurri + aioli combo took it completely over the top. Ty tried the Lincoln Ave Patacones and... wow. It's not bread -- it's a smashed plantain -- loaded with grilled chicken. A little messy, but he said it was absolutely delicious.
