Had a taste for a good margarita with some guacamole and chips so decided to give Taqueria Chuyita…read morea try based on the good reviews. We were greeted warmly and seated quickly upon entering. Parking can get tricky on the typical busy eat out days due to location in a small retail strip. The restaurant seems small but with a decent amount of seating. Complimentary chips and salsa were provided; salsa has a bit of a kick to it but in a good way. Ordered a small guacamole and let me tell you it was the best guac I've had in years, so fresh and flavorful. I got a small order to go. Ordered the Enchiladas Rancheras, Quesabirria tacos, and one Asada(steak) taco for entrees. Enchiladas lack flavor seasoning and the meat was dry. Birria was decent, a more authentic Mexican flare but could use a bit more seasoning. Asada taco was a no go for me. Not sure what type of steak is used but it was cubed and overcooked. Didn't really taste like steak to me. Ordered a strawberry and house frozen margarita. Both were icee (not smooth)and watered down. No flavor and definitely no alcohol in sight.

They also bring queso out to your table not just salsa and it was very good. There's a lot of seating on the inside to fit any size crowd.

Chips, salsa and queso were tasty. Some of my food was burnt and cooked too hot and too fast.

We've been back several times and I'm happy to say each visit has been wonderful. My wife loves fajitas and I'm a sucker for anything with queso.

Stopped in discovered they opened about a month ago. Ordered a sampler of empanadas: chicken, beef, and ham/cheese for under $10 to go. Everything was prepared as I waited in their little dining room that has a few tables and some high tops along two counters facing outside. Quaint. Charming. A little cramped. I loved it. The menu is a mixture of traditional American breakfast and lunch plus Mexican dishes like tostados, salchipapas, asada, choripan, and empanadas to name a few. I can see where they might build a quick takeout business. My empanadas were delicious. Looking to give a new business a try without breaking the bank.

I bought 2 Trompo tacos and 2 chicharron tacos. Both needed SALT to get the taste of the meat to pop. They did however include the sides for regular tacos as well as the pineapple and grilled onions that usually garnish the trompo tacos. There was enough pineapple and grilled onions for ALL of my tacos. TIP: The red salsa is SPICY compared to the green salsa. The tacos are wrapped in double tortillas and they use the SMALL tortillas for tacos. The service was great. It was fast and friendly. The place was a little dead to be in such a great location within a huge shopping center, so parking is not a problem.
