    Steak Quesadilla

    I love Chenchos, the food is great, staff is friendly and quick, sticks to their hours and comfy little place to grab a bite

    Shady, shady, shady practices at this establishment. I should have learned my lesson the first time with their overpriced yet small items, but I decided to try them again. I was in a hurry to get in and out with my order and so it wasn't until I got home and had a chance to look at my receipt was when I realized I was charged $15 more than what is quoted on their online menu! Even GrubHub has the same prices as their online menu! I realized I should have read some of the other Yelp reviews where others explicitly mention this routine practice of theirs. So shady! I called the establishment and mentioned what happened. I was told the owner increases their prices, but they haven't had a chance to update the menu online. I requested to speak with the manager, but there was none available. (According to other yelpers management says they can change the menu as they please.) By the way, the front staff is very kind and efficient. The servers are very sweet. Menu online states chilled rellano burritos at $6.50 each. I ordered two and they charged me $18! $5 difference there. Steak taco dinner was supposed to be $9.50, I was charged $9.99. $0.49 difference there. Veggie tostadas state they are $3.50 each, yet I was charged $11.98 for two! $4.98 increase there. Avocado torta was supposed to be $4.99, was charged $7.99. $2.99 there. They couldn't even uphold the Mexican Nacho price at $8.25. They charged me $8.50! The food was definitely not worth the prices. At all. They barely put any steak in my daughter's tacos, the nachos were over fried, and the burritos were small and lacking. The torta and tostadas were decent, but not worth it at their menu prices. I have yet to find a good, authentic Mexican place in these south suburbs. Looks like I'll have to continue heading to Cicero, Berwyn, or Brookfield to get my fix. I will never, ever go back to Chenchos.

    get a burrito tonight we lost our Papa John's LOL this is Chicago no big loss LOL

    our local chenchos burritos been here over almost 10 years now I believe..I haven't been in here probably in about a year I had some lousy service at the time and it's okay we got Mexican restaurants around the whole area but I really had a taste for an old-fashioned steak burrito or as I like to call it the log Style.. I've had burritos around North America and Canada through the years but there's something about what I grew up with after underage drinking and partying going to burritoville and having the classic El famos burrito near summit Illinois or down around Southside of Chicago Classic places. chenchos is a small storefront style facility they don't use up a whole lot of storefront they have for the most part bilingual staff sometimes you have to explain a few things even after all this time they're not full-blown perfect English. you can die then and have anything non-alcoholic but the plates and platters aren't too bad although I just like the old school burritos here. they take all credit card the reason any place in this little strip mall does not have alcohol or even allowed a BYOB permit is because of the preschool that sits directly next door to it it's a Homer Glen thing they do not want any alcohol served at close to a preschool which is a good thing for the most part I suppose.. parking can be really tight because right next door although Papa John's is gone oh well there is to Golden Sun Chinese restaurant there's a cleaners and a couple more things over here in this little strip. I had my usual steak burrito with a little bit of beans added cheese sour cream perfect I don't like lettuce and tomato on a burrito I like them on tacos and tostadas but this is the way I grew up with steak burritos back in the day some 30-plus years ago what I discovered them along with a bunch of other party friends when we were youths LOL... the burrito was fantastic like it always is they give you lots of steak and I shall post a couple of pictures there of what a classic Chicago style burrito is the main thing is to white Chihuahua cheese a lot of places use cheddar cheese or American no no no that's not authentic... shame on thee wow I do not like the other varieties around my area to I do enjoy the burritos here I will probably come back again I probably get it to go so I can have a cold one is home but none the less it looks like they're still doing really good keep up the good work. some of the reviews of do reflect sometimes I get really busy and things tend to get slow sometimes you call it a phone order in the ETA isn't quite right, 20 minutes and get their 20 minutes later you wait an extra 10 minutes but it is what it is.

    MISSING ALERT! A grateful gesture will be awarded to anyone who can find the flavor in this burrito!

    I love Mexican food and I'm pretty easy to please in terms of taste, but this place was awful. The streak burrito was $6.50, a fair price, and a good size. The taste was extremely bland. The most flavor I got from this burrito was the tortilla. The most interesting texture was the steak feeling like rubber. The restaurant is pretty clean. They were good at cleaning up right after a customer leaves. The problem was the lemon smell of pinesol over powering the smell of my streak burrito. Service wasn't the best since she wasn't helpful or polite. In her defense, she worked the register, took care of 3 groups, cleaned the tables, and would go to the back to possibly do more work. So it could of been a bad day, but they definitely understaff. I was a part of a group of four and we were all displeased. We were charged 2.50 for little hot sauce, the bottle of coke was 2.50, we were charged 15% gratuity, and they were unable to split our check. Overall, it can get pricey, food taste is nonexistant, service needs improvement, portion size for a burrito was good, and it's lemony-clean :)

    Expensive, tacos are tiny, steak is chewy. You may want to go elsewhere. I won't be going back.

Once seated, our waiter took our drink orders and they made good cocktails. Then, we ordered an appetizer and dinner at the same time for ease. Then...we waited...and waited...and waited. Finally, we asked about our appetizer and they said it would be coming out soon. People who were seated after us got served but our food hadn't come. And we waited. The food was delicious when we got it, but it took a really long time. I ordered the most expensive item on the menu and I'd give it a 10 out of 10 for flavors- Torro carne asada! The queso fundido and the tacos were also delicious! When they brought the bill, it was clear they knew the experience overall wasn't great because they put two cards for $10 off two meals but didn't say anything about the experience. I would have appreciated a gesture during the time we were there - an appetizer, a drink, another thing to try, just to say, sorry about the wait and we value you and your experience, but that didn't happen. We were so excited to have a new place, but I don't think we'll go back.

I sadly didn't take a picture since my bf ate them so fast! I did order the Birria ramen which was warm and comforting. I found the broth to be flavorful and the noodles not too mushy or crunchy. The meat portions were generous too. 5/5 Service: Service was okay! It seemed like there was one bartender and one server that night. There were times where I wanted another drink but the bartender wasn't around since she was restocking. I believe having a bar back would have helped with overall service. When she was serving us, she was very nice though. 4/5 Ambiance: the restaurant was still decorated from the Christmas time but it was cute! They have a very instagram-pic ready environment!

When we arrived, the deal wasn't listed on the menu, and our server told us they actually stopped offering it about two months ago. She was kind enough to give us a small $2 discount for the inconvenience, but the miscommunication was still frustrating. When our food came out, we realized there were no utensils on the table. We had to flag someone down just to be able to start eating. Unfortunately, once we did eat, everything was cold and pretty bland. For the price and the hype, it was really disappointing. The restaurant itself is small, crowded, and very loud, which made it hard to enjoy the meal. Overall, I wouldn't recommend it, especially with so many other brunch spots in the area that offer better food and better service.
