    Chilaquiles Box
    JakeBryan B.

    The atmosphere feels very secluded, although, it was probably due to a visit during the holidays and everyone was out of town. Pretty basic eatery location and not much of a selection for alternative food options. For the price of the food, I think you're mainly paying for the aesthetic. Overall, a fair experience.

    Wow!! I am so pleased with my choice to visit Chilabox. A quick walk from my hotel in El Paso, Chilabox is a great concept where Mexican Chilaquiles come in a box customized to your liking for an exciting, delicious and fun experience. The space is adorable! Great outdoor seating area with swings (!!) and plenty of tables and benches for customers. I visited for breakfast and was greeted by the friendly and helpful staff who explained the concept to me. You choose from several sauce options and then choose your toppings. I chose rojo and verde sauce, light onions, sour cream, chicken, cheese and black sesame seeds. Everything comes carefully layered in a "to go" box similar to what you'd get at a Chinese restaurant. You can eat straight from the box, or open it up on the specially designed sides onto a plate so you can get the full experience. My Chilabox was delicious! It was done in about 5 minutes. The slightly spicy red sauce and tangy green sauce were so flavorful, the tortilla chips were a great mix of crispy and saturated in the sauce. I couldn't stop eating! I'm glad I went with light onions because they were strong. I wish there was an option to add a fried egg on top, but otherwise it was perfect!

    Been wanting to try this spot for a while and I'm glad I finally did! Cool downtown location available for pickup, along with a very small dining space indoors and quaint little patio available too. The chipotle Chilabox was money! I opted to add chicken & pass on the cilantro. Every bite was delicious! Paired perfectly with the Mexican Coke in the old school glass bottle. Pickup with great (quick & convenient)! Service was great! Food was great (looking forward to trying the other 4 salutes they offer)! Downtown El Paso, let's support this spot and help make it successful!

    It's a quaint little spot tucked inside The Mix Shops on San Antonio St. next to the Union Plaza in downtown El Paso. Good: They serve up chilaquiles inside a takeout box, but don't be fooled by the size, one box is enough to fill you up. They offer 3 different sauces, verde (green), rojo (red) or chipotle. My wife and I ordered the green and chipotle. Both were very good as each box was filled to the top with tostada chips, chicken*, cheese, onions, sour cream, cilantro, and black sesame seeds. Priced around $9.00 a box. You can add avocado for an additional charge. Service was friendly and attentive. Bad: If you don't want to walk around with onion mouth all day, order it without. Also, not sure if they put chicken in our boxes. *Our boxes didn't look like they had chicken in them. When I asked, the gentleman, he said they come with finely shredded chicken but I couldn't tell if that was true or not. My only suggestions for this place would be to make the chicken more distinguishable, because I couldn't tell. Also, if you can add a fried egg on top, that would put this place up a notch.

    All the fixings!!!

    Never had this before December 13, 2023 but very impressed! Despite not having chicken for protein (because a larger number of Soldiers decided try this place out during Iron Summit 2023), the team recovered well and went above and beyond in providing an awesome dining experience!

    I would love to give this five stars because the chilaquiles are pretty amazing. I order the habanero with everything on it and they were spot on... the amount that fits inside the little box is very filling. The location is nice with the swings and small patio tables outside. Here's the downfall to my experience, we placed our order inside and were told it would be ready in 12 min, went inside to get the order after about 15 min and were told another 5 min, wrong it took about 40 min for my order to come out. Some people may not have 40 minutes to wait so why not be upfront and let customers know what the wait time is.

    My mom found this place through fb and we were craving chilaquiles so we came to check it out. Chilaquiles are crunchy and full of salsa, our toppings included cheese, sour cream, avocado, sesame seeds and chicken! They come in boxes that open up on the side, super convenient as you continue eating. It's a nice little place and the chilaquiles were super yummy so we're bound to come back in the future (:

    Chipotle flavor! Also had the gualda verde! Both are bomb!

I could say so much for you to believe me, and it honestly starts with the speedy (and kind) service, flavorful profiles and the pricing! My first visit I just simply couldn't believe it. Each visit, I try something new and I must say that I'm hooked on the Jamaica Margarita (with the tajin rim), and the pork shoulder taco, as well as the chicken taco! The Baja shrimp taco is also in my top 3! The staff is kind, energetic and will remember you; not just from personal experience but from my observations as well.

One of the servers, Jonah, threw away my "half-eaten" food without asking if I was finished. I didn't realize that was his decision to make, and when I brought it up, he rolled his eyes and responded with a horrible attitude. On a positive note, Sara behind the bar was fantastic, and Alexis was incredibly kind. They both provided the level of service I've come to expect from Taconeta. I hope management addresses this, because one negative interaction shouldn't overshadow the great staff and food that usually keep me coming back.

Located off one of the main streets; in a shopping complex sits Orange Cow Burgers which originally started out as a Food Truck. Now, there's approximately three locations in the surrounding areas. Menu is pretty straight forward and simple. Orders are as follows: a single, double, triple and protein cow. It's fresh ingredients, all-beef patties that are cooked to medium. The best part is they have a secret speciality sauce called moolicious! We got two single patties along with two orders of fries and a pup patty (single plain patty) for the dogs. All to go. Prices are extremely reasonable in today's market. Taste was as if you made it right at your own La Casa. Only complaint was not having "enough" of that sauce to really have it stand out beyond home cooked. That said, you can also get their "loaded fries" which includes this specific sauce as well. We opted for "extra crispy" plain fries and they were really good. Service was fair enough as far as the wait ( 2 parties a head of us) and friendly staff. Great little spot if you happen through El Paso Texas or if you're local, hit them up for your own burger experience & request extra mooliscious spread of course!

The hotel I was…read morestaying in had several places around but I opted for the rib Hut because it was the closest to my hotel. It was only a mile away from the hotel up a hill, so I made my way there. The A-frame building has very limited parking, but I was lucky to find a spot right out front. I would imagine on a Friday or Saturday night it gets kind of crazy, so you're going to want to get here early. I walked in and was told to sit wherever I would like, so I grabbed a table so I could take a look around and see what I was getting myself into. The place had a nice charm to it, it felt more like an old Tavern than a rib joint. Lots of bent seating and plenty of tables all around the facility. Waiter came up. Got my drink order and brought it back within moments. I had also asked for a water, but that never arrived. I decided to go for the rib Hut combo which was one beef rib, two spare ribs and three baby back ribs. They came out to the table pretty quick. I also ordered fries and onion rings, since you can't really have barbecue without fries and onion rings. Dish of barbecue sauce..... Vinegar-based, which is perfect for the area. The beef rib was definitely the star of the show. Had a great char on it, super moist, and very flavorful. Flavorful. Addition of the barbecue sauce definitely helps, and that was gone in moments. Honestly, the baby backs were not that good. They were pretty overcooked and had very little meat on them. The spare rib was pretty tasty, had plenty of meat and was incredibly flavorful. Was this the best barbecue I have ever had? No. But it was darn good, and I cleaned my plate. I definitely think they could step up their service a little bit, my waiter only came by to check on me once, I had run out of ice in my iced tea early on and he never came by to replace it. After I was done, I was sitting and waiting for my bill for probably an easy 10 minutes or so. The place wasn't super busy, but I'm a pretty forgiving person. Bottom line? If this place stepped up on their service it would be a five all the way around. I would just sell the kitchen to take a little more care with the ribs as they definitely were overcooked.
