Second time going to this location and eating at a Chi'Lantro. Even though I could only walk in to order my food to go, all the employees were friendly. I would definitely recommend the tasty food and this location! read more

I frequent this restaurant at least a few times a month and never seen such poor customer service. I stood at the online pickup spot while the cashier helped 3 customers. Not 1, not 2, but 3. When I asked about he said "how am I supposed to know you were standing there" "you never said anything " Really?? he made eye contact with every customer who stood DIRECTLY in front of me. You can clearly see someone standing behind some. If it happened once I wouldn't complain. Three times is excessive. The next time I'm debating mod pizza over chi'lantro I'll choose the former. read more

Here you will see the Kimchi pork fries. After Chilantro was on Shark Tank I had been wanting to go for a while and finally went. The pork was super chewy- I felt a little embarrassed trying to eat it with the people I went to lunch with. It did have a good spice if you are into spiciness. And they put the fries in right when ordered so they are hot and crisp and fresh! It's a little hard to eat bc it's all in that little dish, but I think it's worth trying. I'll get something different next time. read more

Chi'Lantro - Korean Near Me - Austin, Texas

The flavor of the pork marinade was good but the blond taco maker gave me the bottom of the barrel and basically gave me the bottom scraps and grease so my tacos were cold and sloppy. And the service line, i felt took longer than it should. read more

Chi'Lantro - Grease puddle - Korean Near Me - Austin, Texas

I think I've been to every Chi'Lantro in Austin and Houston. I'm a huge fan. I used to stalk their podunk website in Houston to see where they'd be on any given night. I played bar trivia at Little Woodrows just to eat at Chi'Lantro - I love them, LOVE THEM. Buuuut, this location doesn't live up to the Chi'Lantro name. They are just starting out, so I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt, but my lackluster experience is really weighing on me. If you come here and don't enjoy the food, please don't give up on Chi'Lantro completely, I promise there are better spots. I ate the OG Kimchi Fries and not only were the fries cold and pre-cooked, but the employee was being really stingy with the toppings. I'm talking five pieces of kimchi total. The main ingredient was hardly there. There was more Ribeye than kimchi. Idk, but I wasn't impressed. What I will give to this location is the ambiance. It's a beautiful space with a patio and updated decor. It's really beautiful. Overall, I'm giving this place 3 stars so I can come back and try it again when they work out all the kinks. I love Chi'Lantro so I'm holding out hope that it'll get better. read more

Finally. Had. FRIES. No pic. I literally inhaled. INHALED. Omg. OHMYGAWD. I literally just questioned my whole entire life as a native Austinite and avid SXSW go-er. I have countlessly strolled passed the trailers dotting downtown with my nose turned up judging all you hipsters, but here I am...on bended knee praising the KIMCHI FRY GODS! I got mine topped with the spicy chicken...it's like the perfect umami bite and I'm not even exaggerating guys. Like sweet and salty and spicy and hot and cool from the sweet sauce...WHAT IS THE SWEET SAUCE?!!!! I need to know! They have so much more in the location, noodles...and more! You can get your fries topped with avocado and PRIME RIB...guys...PRIME R I B. I'm getting that next time...stay tuned! read more

This is the absolute worst location I've ever been to. I've been here at least 5 times and had my ordered screwed up almost every single time. The staff are extremely rude and no one knows how to roll a damn burrito. We ordered chips and queso and they only filled the queso container up halfway. My boyfriend basically got like 7 pieces of chicken on his burrito. The staff is EXTREMELY rude. Not sure if they hate their jobs or something, but they need to step things up at this location. read more

Ordered the basil peach lemonade (delicious), original kimchi fries with the ribeye beef, and korean fried chicken wings to try. The meal was nicely presented. The cheese on the fries I felt over powered the kimchi, with the kimchi a little lacking. The ribeye pieces were nicely tender. The wings were good, but probably will try the bowls next time around. Atmosphere was relaxing as I sat outside, and the staff was kind. Will be back next time around. read more

Chi'Lantro - Korean Near Me - Austin, Texas

food was good service was mid. i walked in, wasn't greeted, employees look at me briefly and contin their conversation. so I greeted them, to which I was met with mumbles and more silence...ohhkayyy. spent 22 on a bowl with noodles added chick and beef which both costed extra which is crazy. $4 for beef $2 for chicken...anyways. asked me if I needed utensils I said yes, chopsticks please, I looked in my bag and poof a plastic fork set, no big deal, until I reached for chopsticks and was met with a look of confusion. what I couldn't possibly know how to use chopsticks, offered a drink I politely declined, offered a water cup, I politely declined, was asked again if I was sure I didn't want a water cup, I politely declined, grabbed my chopsticks and left. Loved in the area 5 years, have been in twice, likely won't bee back, didn't feel too welcomed, wasn't told to have a nice day, invited back nothing. Did I mention the people who walked in after me got a warm welcome in? Okay I'm done with this review. read more

One of my favorite burgers everrr!!! The bulgogi burgers and kimchi bulgogi fries are the way to go.. thank me later

Pretty much I can never go back to Chipotle because this place has ruined me for rice bowls. I love the spicy chicken and kimchi, which makes Chipotle seem bland in comparison. I also love all the colorful vegetables that makes me feel healthy for eating here. Plus, with such a variety of sauces to finish it off, I never get the same meal twice. I liked seeing that there is also a kids meal and beer selection. I usually make my lunches here a working lunch because there's ample table space, then I can get lots of Main Root refills while I chill for a couple hours. All in all, this place is a step up from most fast casual places. read more

Can't get enough of this place. If I could, I'd eat there every day. Love it sow much!

Loved their salad with soy glazed chicken and magic sauce. Everything was fresh and made quickly for us just how we wanted it.

Always gotta have kimchi fries when I come to Austin! It is so good, inexpensive and fully loaded! read more

I would avoid this place at all costs because one of the staff member was so rude! My friend and I went to this joint as a birthday lunch. I asked one of the coworkers who does the cooking if the do birthday surprises or songs....his respond was like soorrrry we don't do that. He didn't even attempt to think of ideas, or try to make my friend feel special for her birthday. Staff members like that lose great customers like me! read more

I really love this place! Build your own rice/noodle (or half and half ) bowl - pick protein and then all the toppings you like . Badaboom!! Delish! Everything fresh and tasty - some of the best tasting wings I've ever had!!! Great place to grab lunch or dinner if you are trying to eat something light and on the healthier side. I will be back a lot ! Thanks to all the polite workers :) read more

This place has good food. I didn't think service was amazing and fairly priced but it was good good. If I did my large order all over I say skip the chipotle themed part of this place. Stick to fries with spicy pork and wings. These two sharables are amazing. Will get these two many more times to come. But will pass on the chipotle line like burrito or rice option. read more

I LOVE this place. It's very vegan friendly & has plenty of options to create what you desire. Also the noodle bowl usually gives me two servings which is good for the price in my opinion! read more

This was our visit to Chi'lantro and the overwhelming amount of options was exciting and the employees were very helpful in making our decisions. We got the original kimchi fries (sans onions) with spicy pork and the noodle bowl with spicy chicken. We loved everything we tried. Definitely recommend the spicy pork, magic sauce, and kimchi in whatever your get. The kimchi is perfect - "fermenty" and spicy without overwhelming the dishes. read more

Chi'Lantro - Korean Near Me - Austin, Texas

Let me start off with this. The past employees that worked here before were awesome! However all the new employees now are careless. I have not been here in 4 months, and today decided to stop by and get "what I thought was some good food." What I ended up witnessing was the absence of FOOD SAFTEY. We ordered the 10 count chicken wings and two bowls. The guy with the dreads handled the raw chicken, then proceeded to handle my bowl order WITHOUT CHANGING HIS GLOVES. I don't need to tell y'all, that's shit is NASTY! He prepared my food and everyone else's food with the same set of gloves he handled raw chicken with. I told the girl with the red hair (as seen in the picture) if she can remake my bowl because of that. She got an attitude and took the bowls and walked away. She didn't even apologize or treat it as a serious issue. After this incident there was no action, or counseling taken. Then the guy with the dreads kept doing the same thing. Cross contaminating everything. I will not come back to this location and WILL spread word to others about this as well. read more

It's an ok restaurant, The benefit it's quite fast food and that's it. But the staff usually inpatient and trying to rush you to finish your order all the time..,Nothing special about them and not much options in the menu unfortunately read more

I keep this place but the menu is limited. Kimch fries are great though!! Online ordering is pretty good but messed mine up

Interesting food! Served in a chipotle kind of style which isn't my favorite. I was greeted when I walked in. The inside is very cute and trendy! I definitely recommend the kimchi fries. read more

Chi'Lantro - Rice bowl with ribeye beef and Caribbean curry sauce on the side. Kimchi fries on the far right. - Korean Near Me - Austin, Texas

You guys changed the way you allow online orders. As a low carb person you changed the options I have for rice bowls and salads. Changed the number of sauces. I order 3-4 tImes a week now I can't read more

Very disappointing compared to the food truck. You can in fact make a better version at home. Take your money somewhere else. I had the kimchi fries read more

This location has such low quality to it, the food seems stale and little care to a simple order that's placed ahead of time.

Good food amazing service Highly recommend it also the crew over there always in good vibes

The manager came to my rescue today not only did he hook me up but my card was lost and took care of my food for me today and was really cool about Ontop of that the food will bomb I'll be back for sure with my card lol read more

I love Chilantros! I l adore Korean food and Mexican food independently, but the Korean-Mexican mashup is just too good! I've tried almost everything here through UberEats and by going to this storefront in person since they've been open about a couple weeks ago. Tacos: 11/10. I love the bulgogi beef. Noodle Bowl: 10/10. TWO WORDS: Those-Noodles. Rice Bowl: 9/10. Would have been 11/10, but the kimchi sauce was too hot for my taste buds. I would definitely get this again, but without the kimchi sauce. Staff: 11/10. Super friendly and willing to answer all your questions. Great vibe, Squeeky clean, and really Austiny...if that's even a word. read more

I love their kimchi fries so I was really excited about this new location opening. But I feel they really skimp on the meat here on the salads and rice/noodle bowels. It's very obvious compared to the other places nearby - verts, pho please, chipotle, that give a generous portion for similar price. My husband always pays extra for double portions, which he says actually makes it "normal" portions. The kimchi fries are huge though, and can fill you up on their own. But who wants to only eat fries for a meal? I wish they offer a half serving, that way I can get it as a side instead. Otherwise the place is always clean and the workers have been really nice. So this place has potential with a few tweaks. read more

Upbeat atmosphere no matter what time of the day you eat here. Modern design inside. Flavorful cuisine that makes your tongue and tummy dance! One of my fav restaurants in Austin! read more

Delicious food and the staff at this location was particularly great. They were efficient, had great suggestions, and had an excellent disposition. Hats off to this team. read more

I love love love this restaurant, and especially this location. The food is BOMB, I love their vegan choices. But even better, the staff at this location is always sooo nice! I come here at least once a week religiously read more

The kid's bowl could easily feed an adult. Its portion is definitely worth the price, and the food is delicious. It's phenomenal, and everything in the bowl compliments each other perfectly. The chips and queso are delicious! The chips are crisp and the queso is warm and not too overpowering--a great combination. There's a bit of spice in the queso, so it's definitely worth trying out! The servers are so nice and patient, and the ambiance is casual and friendly. The decorations serve to make you feel comfortable while staying chic and modern. All in all, I'd definitely come here again (moreso than Chipotle, if I'm being honest). read more

Chi'Lantro - Strawberry limeade, a kid's rice bowl, and chips and queso~ - Korean Near Me - Austin, Texas

Good food but the service is pretty slow. I ordered my noodle bowl and by the time i had paid and sat down to eat it was almost cold. I know it's new and they will probably figure it out soon but I just want to give some hopefully helpful thoughts. Instead of 3 people handling the food and 1 cashier, have 2 people doing food and 2 at the cash register as that seemed to be the biggest back up. This way the three people on the food orders arent getting caught up with whose doing what as it seemed like they were. For to go orders, have the first person write the order on the box. That way the last person can box it up and bag it so the lone cash register doesn't have to. Still yummy though so if you have time to spare, check it out! Or avoid peek hours. read more

Excellent. Wish they had these in VA. 100 times better then Chipotle. Everything was good and fresh. We love kimchi and Korean food.

I work down the street and this is a very popular option when I gotta escape for lunch. They do not accept cash so take a card with you. Parking is somewhat available on the street but there is a little parking garage right behind it so don't fret, and it's free. They serve Maine Root which is banging and are super helpful if you have questions. Also, if you want more of something, speak up. You want more cheese? Get you some more cheese. Same with sauce. You do you and don't let them hide your light under a bushel. Absolute fave is you can get a fried egg on anything!!!! Yay!!! read more

We recently moved away from the '41, and one of the biggest things I miss is the Southshore District Chi'Lantro. The food is consistently delicious and fresh, the people who work there are super friendly every single time, and their ambiance makes it feel like you're having a kind of upscale sit-down meal even though it's technically "fast casual". The flavors they combine are pretty striking and original, and there's honestly nothing better than just popping off the hike and bike trail and up to Chi'Lantro for a tasty meal. It's surprisingly hard to find food that is fresh and not overpriced, especially in that area. They give you enough food that, unless you have an enormous appetite, you will have some leftovers to snack on later. I particularly enjoy the (GF) noodle bowl, and the abundance of fresh veggies / kimchi / other options that you can get with it. Their marinated tofu is awesome, but they also have some pretty decadent meaty things for the carnivores among you. I would recommend the carrot ginger dressing. Southshore (i.e. "the one on East Riverside") is hands down the best location. Thanks, Chi'Lantro, for making food even my mom likes! read more

Took a friend there to celebrate. Always delicious! The Mueller store was exceptionally friendly as well!
