The tacos here are so good! I am from California (San Diego has the BEST Mexican food in the states hands down). I have been having a hard time finding good, REAL Mexican food in MD & PA. I was on my lunch break close by and decided to give this place a try because I had heard about their food. I am SO GLAD that I stopped by. I got the carne asada, al pastor, and carnitas tacos. They actually messed up my al pastor and gave me ground beef instead. But the carnitas and the carne asada were so good that I was able to look past that little mistake. The meat had such great flavors and the tortillas actually tasted like home instead of store bought. The salsa was not bad, but it needed a little more salt. You can't beat the prices here either. 100% recommend. Overall, I enjoyed my experience here and will definitely be stopping by again whenever I'm in PA. read more

Don Checko's Mexican Restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Chambersburg, Pennsylvania

Poor service! When they get an order wrong they do not fix it nor want to give you your money back.

THEY HAVE DELICIOUS TORTAS! If you don't know what to get, get the Carne Asada Torta! It leaves you craving for more! The tacos were delicious as well. The green Chile sauce is perfectly spicy! When I think of this place, the word "authentic" comes to mind. I need to go back for the cheeseburger, but their Carne Asada Torta is LEGIT! So I had Veroni's Cafe which has more traditional Mexican dishes. I'm not 100% sure the owners here are Mexican, but the food is delicious. If I had to choose I'd for sure get the tortas and tacos from Don Checko's! 5 Stars to me means you leave me craving for more. So when I think of this place, my mouth begins salivating and I have to control myself to not rush over and get something from their menu. El Gallo Garcia - You're up next! read more

When I walked into dons shop all I saw were Hispanics . I got intense looks the entire time as me and my friend Bairy were getting our daily food stop. The food was ok I guess but they kept calling me a gringo and my friend a negro which doesn't sound right but I don't speak espanol so I don't know what that's about. The service was ok I guess but still don't know what gringo means, The overall atmosphere/ambience of the room was pretty good i was listening to a bunch of Hispanic songs and I got a sombrero! But yeah overall I might go back but only if I really want tacos. read more

I worked in Chambersburg and had lunch several times a week at Checko's. Without question the best chicken tacos; I compare theirs to any taco I've eaten since. Fantastic food at a great price. read more

Don Checko's Mexican Restaurant - Asada tacos - Mexican Near Me - Chambersburg, Pennsylvania

Very good Mexican. There's not much to the place inside. A few booths, a soda cooler, a soda fountain (that's broken) and a big screen television tuned to one of the Spanish-language channels. The simple black and white menu promises a list of Mexican dishes from the usual tacos and burritos to chiles rellenos and chuletas de puerco en salsa. I opted for the Barbacoa de res (beef roast) in red sauce. As the drink options were so limited, I decided to take it to go, as I have a couple of beers left over in the hotel room. I managed not to pull over and eat it in the car because it smelled absolutely wonderful. And when I finally unwrapped it, it also looked great. A good portion of rich beef with onions and avocado and sliced tomato in one container, yellow rice and pinto beans in the other container, plus four warm corn tortillas wrapped in foil. It was excellent. Again, the place doesn't look fancy. That's okay. The food is why you're here. read more

I ended up stopping here during the food truck festival because the lines were so long and I was starving. Sooo glad that I did! I got the carne asada tacos and they were delicious! Awesome prices too. I can't wait to come back! read more

O MY GOD this was freakin AWESOME. Never before have I not been able to eat two tacos and 2 sopapillos. Trust me. There was a lot of food. The Chorizo is really flavorful and not as greasy as most places. The sopapillos were out of this world and if they don't make their own corn tortillas you could have fooled me. The churiqueso was downright heavenly. Skip the chips or tortillas and just eat it like a soup. You're not going to find a better lunch or dinner spot for Mexican. Especially for the price. read more

Made to order, delicious, high price-quality The right place to on Sunday for lunch when you don't have much money read more

It's a pretty rough place from the outside. Not the type of place I would visit if I saw it first. However, I ordered via phone and went to pick it up. The food was TERRIFIC! The service was great and I would definitely go again for the food. We got a variety of their tacos and every single one was great. Don't judge by the outside or dining area. Personally, I would probably only order to go because the inside is pretty rough. read more

Tacos are delicious every time. The marinade is always spot on, al pastor and asada are our favorites. Loads of toppings, the tacos are always packed to the brim. Inexpensive, we eat here multiple times a week. The corn shells are on point and totally different than other taco places we've been to. The staff is very friendly and the inside of the restaurant, although small, is just what you'd expect! We absolutely love it here! read more

Prices are great, food is fabulous and I am so glad I had my birthday meal here. Even the corn tortillas are excellent! read more

Amazing food! Don't judge the place by the outside appearance. They were out of some things, but we got quesadillas and they were fantastic!

Great little place, Hubby and I went on a Friday evening, they had ran out of mostly every thing. But had carne asada, we loved loved the tacos... The flavor has to be there and the tortilla has to be authentic to win my vote....they delivered the best taco I've had here in PA....im born and raised in San Diego, CA and I know tacos plus I'm mexican please trust ne when I say the best so far.... read more

My mom lives nearby and we love coming here. I've lived in Mechanicsburg and now Florida. Hands down, the best street tacos ever! I love the variety of meats. You can tell everything is made fresh, I love the green salsa. My husband loves to drink their horchata and you get a huge glass of it. If you're looking for authentic Mexican food, look no further! read more

Burritos are crazy good. Tacos are good but the burritos are better. My only problem is that they use styrofoam to-go containers. Just wrap by burrito is foil and throw it in a bag, that's all I need. By the way, here's the full menu. read more

Love love love their tacos. Great food for the price and takes me back to Guatemala every time. Always nice people as well!

We stopped here on our way back to Pittsburgh-wow! Authentic, delicious, reasonably priced Mexican. You will not regret coming here

Food is average. Meats are ALWAYS low quality. Sometimes dried out reheated. The beans don't have any flavor and always cooked too high. They do serve large portions for a very fair price. The staff is very nice and the place is always clean. read more

Had lunch here once and the food was very good. Very authentic and at a good price. Had a difficult time ordering because the waitress did not speak English and I do not speak Spanish. Will definitely be going back because the food was so good and would recommend even with the language barrier. read more
