Chronic Tacos

I love finding a legit mom-and-pop spot, and this family-owned Mayan & Yucatecan restaurant did NOT…read moredisappoint. Nothing fancy--and honestly, that's the charm. Just friendly service and seriously good, freshly made food. I ordered a combo to try a few things outside my usual comfort zone: panucho, salbute, and their style of empanada. Everything was delicious, and even my to-go order was plated beautifully. The chicken was juicy and packed with flavor, but that hot sauce? BABY, I was not prepared. Consider yourself warned! Love supporting a local family-owned gem like this. I'll be back in no time!

Long review but I think it's important to say what needs to be said:…read more THE SHORT VERSION; First time visiting this place since reviews were generally good and it's truly something special to see a restaurant specializing in Yucatecan food only. The food was different than your standard Mexican offering and overall very good, good seasoning and portions. Pricing was not out of what would be expected for quality Mexican food. The service, unfortunately, was half baked, which is really sad for me to see as a staunch supporter of local, immigrant owned businesses and being a child of immigrants myself and knowing how much hard work is involved in maintaining a business alive. THE LONGER VERSION; It was apparent that the waitress that served us during our visit could not only benefit from more training in offering (and caring to offer) a better customer service experience / better table side communication but also needs to make the connection about how her actions affect the livelihood of a business that others have undoubtedly worked very hard for. But, I guess this assumes she wants to genuinely work there. To begin with, my party was greeted by a poorly delivered and off putting joke about making sure she served us lots of alcohol; delivered in a way that in Spanish is known as "ser llevado" or overly familiar. Odd to make jokes like that when you just met someone visiting your business for the first time, but we passed it off as just a poor attempt to connect. Fine, we moved on. The music was extremely loud. When we asked if it could be lowered somewhat, she lowered the volume from an 11 to a 2, which then made the ask not only awkward but almost passive aggressive. (I only say this because once we left, we heard the volume quickly go back to 11, as if they were just waiting for us to leave to crank the volume back up again). The waitress did explain the dishes well, letting us know what the unique ones were. However, in the middle of our conversation a guy walked through the door and it was obvious that there's a connection between them because she then got more impatient explaining things to us as said guy moved to sit at a table towards the back of the restaurant. We completed our order, she served us and then kind of disappeared to wait on the other table, we thought. When she did happen to pass by our table again, I politely asked for additional plates and silverware, when she had a chance, to which she replied that I could pick them up myself from near the register area. Her response seemed out place since we were dining in and we were under the impression that she was our waitress, so I asked her again for silverware, not plastic utensils. Again, she told me that I could pick up plastic utensils myself from the register, pointing, "see they're right there" and walked away to the kitchen. We were still processing the exchange, a bit in disbelief, when she then appeared with requested silverware and additional plates but visibly annoyed and in some kind of hurry. It was really hard to focus on enjoying our meal after that. The waitress then made her way to the back table to sit next to, one could now only presume was her boyfriend, and we never saw her again. She never checked on us, asked if we needed anything, etc. Her priority was staying seated and chatting it up with that guy. Who did come to check on us was the owner, who seems to have cooked the meals and walked out of the kitchen to speak with us. He asked if we had enjoyed the food, if it was our first time there, talked about how he sourced his ingredients, shared some of the restaurant's history. Then he walked away to continue working. Unfortunately, we were forced to engage again with the waitress (who remained seated at the back table) and had to ask her across the restaurant where we should pay. Before she answered from her chair (didn't even get up to speak with us and was getting ready to yell back at us from her seat) the owner appeared at the register and told us we could pay with him. Unfortunately, the whole service experience did negatively color our desire to return to this place again. Giving more like 3.5 stars because the food was good but not enough to overlook the unpleasant service.

The gentleman who takes your order and prepares your food is very attentive and is able to remember everything in one go. If he's unsure he will ask. So, your orders are always correct and ready in a timely manner.

Still very casual and simple--not really an IG-worthy kind of place. Service was okay, but nothing particularly memorable. The chips & salsa were a solid 4/5--thin, crispy chips and a slightly smoky salsa with a nice kick. Beans were thick and creamy (4/5), rice was basic/ traditional (3.5/5). The chile relleno was a 2.5/5 for me. I love this dish, but they use panela cheese, which didn't have much flavor and didn't get that melty, gooey texture I prefer. The chicken enchilada with green sauce was definitely the winner--5/5! That sauce was SO flavorful and easily my favorite part of the meal. The pineapple agua fresca was also refreshing. Overall, 3.5/5. Not my favorite atmosphere or chile relleno, but I loved the enchilada and it's always nice finding a local spot to support.

My father-in-law paid without getting the actual itemized receipt showing what we ordered. I went ahead and asked for it. The lady seemed embarrassed and gave it to me. To my surprise, I found out they had already charged a 15% tip. Wich on their menu trying to disclose that they will add 15% for parties of more than 6. I don't have a problem with tipping. Even if they charge a 15% gratuity, that's fine. The problem is that they're rying to get customers to tip twice by not providing the itemized receipt upfront. Be careful and make sure you ask for the detailed receipt before adding any other tip on the card payment receipt. Charging a gratuity is one thing, but not providing the itemized receipt and making it look like another tip should be added is misleading and that's a scam

You walk in and get "hola, joven" before the door shuts behind you. I'd ordered takeout. The woman at the register talked me out of it, which was the correct call and not mine to make.

Obviously yes. All of that happened before the food came out, which is the part worth writing down. Hospitality here isn't a service standard. It's just how the room works. Then the carne asada wet burrito. Chopped beef, great texture, and the serving was plenty. The sauce on top, beautiful red, great flavor, and perfect temperature.

But once I got home and opened it up, I quickly understood why. This thing is massive, seriously like the size of a newborn baby! The burrito is absolutely loaded with all the goodness you'd expect: carne asada, chili relleno, and rice. Definitely a burrito you could easily share. My only real complaint is that they only gave me two small containers of hot sauce, which didn't feel like enough considering the size of the burrito and that it also comes with chips. Other than that, the food was delicious and the portion size is no joke. If you're a fan of big, flavorful burritos, this is definitely a must-try spot!

Rialto, CA location is terrible with online and over the phone orders! The food is good don't get me wrong. I've eaten here a few times and I've ordered online and on the phone and each time "they are sorry" and I have to wait for them to start my food. The last time I called in to make sure my order went through. He found my order, REPEATED it back to me. When I get there to pick it up. The manager says "I'm so sorry. We are currently training a new person and he just let us down". What kind of manager says that? SMH. read more

I recently moved from LA to Rialto and I wanted a good breakfast burrito so my husband said "last time I went to the gas station there was a restaurant that looked good". So we came to Chronic tacos and we got a breakfast burrito and good thing we went halvers on it because it was so big, but really good! Everything tastes fresh and yummy I definitely recommend this place, it's clean and the menu is fun! You gotta try them out. read more
