    What an Idaho Gem! Authentic Mexican food, in a quiet and quaint atmosphere. Highly recommend the bacon wrapped shrimp.

    My husband saw this location on Yelp with good reviews, so he wanted to give it a try. It is…read morelocated on Main Street in an older strip mall. It looks like a small place from the store front, but upon entering, it is quite deep from the front to the back of the seating area. They had one TV on the wall midway into the seating that was playing classic music videos which was fun. We chose our seat close to the TV so we could watch and guess who was coming up next. We were greeted quickly and brought menus, chips and salsa, and 2 water glasses and a pitcher of water. Our friendly waitress came to the table and took our food and drink order. The menu was pretty simple and gave options for senior over 55 years old as well. We chose our orders from the combination options. I ordered a Chili Relleno with a Chicken Burrito that came with rice and beans. My husband ordered the Chili Verde Burrito with a Chicken Enchilada, rice and beans. The portions were not too large or too small for my appetite, but some may think they were on the small side. My Relleno was on the small side, and I wished it had more cheese filling. The chicken burrito was the winner on my plate, and came with a flour tortilla filled with moist shredded chicken breast meat, and smothered in enchilada sauce. I'm not a huge enchilada sauce fan, but this worked well with the burrito. My husband said the Chili Verde was the winner on his plate and was very flavorful. His chicken enchilada was basically the same as my chicken burrito but had corn tortillas instead of flour and the same shredded chicken breast meat. We will likely return again when we are in the area.

    4.6 stars just driving through town and noticed this El Chilito Mexican Restaurant- the minute I…read moreopened the door I was greeted. It was great. Customer Service sat me down right away and put my order in brought out some nice chips and salsa to get started I ordered the Carne Asada plate with corn and tortillas with a lime soda and man. It was really good and they had this really really good homemade chili salsa. It was fire. if you ever in town driving by or whatever occasion might be stopping in and give them a try two thumbs up.
