    a variety of food items
    Rebecca B.

    The service here is great. They're so nice and willing to help and explain. My kids love this place and I have moved out of state so every time I visit I have to bring plates with me. Just introduced my boyfriend to this restaurant and he's already planning to go back. There's plenty of seating if you wish to stay and you won't find better food!

    Pernil was very disappointing.

    Pernil was very disappointing no flavor at all and didn't even bring limes. Pollo guisado was okay I guess.

    a half eaten plate of food

    2 minutes ago I wanted to support other Dominicans and enjoy my cultural food. But this was completely unacceptable. I ordered through grubhub for delivery at 7:15 pm and my food was delivered by 7:44. I had ordered the combo with rotisserie chicken, rice, beans and sweet plantains. When I look at the food I notice the chicken does not look fresh, very dry and hard looking. They had also already cut up the rotisserie chicken... which did not make sense to me and parts of the chicken was missing. Like it only had one wing and some parts of the chicken breasts. It wasn't a whole chicken. I put some food on a plate and start eating and notice the chicken is very hard, almost stale... when I find a piece of hard plastic in my chicken. That's when I decided to write this review to warn others of the poor hygiene they have. I know my chicken wasn't cooked fresh and was microwaved prior to being delivered and on top of that there are particles in it? That's just wrong. I would leave 0 stars if I could.

    They didn't even try to clean the chicken

    One of my favorite places for a date or to bring friends! I feel like I'm always talking about how…read moremuch I love it here. The menu is small and yet there's always plenty of yummy things to try when I go, even as a picky eater. There are multiple vegetarian and even a vegan option or two. I always have to get the guac when I come here - it's the perfect amount of creaminess without too much onion. Their red salsa is a great slightly chunky - slightly juicy texture and has a bit of a kick. The vegan burrito bowl is my go-to as a vegetarian, and the street corn side as an app is elite! It is a little spicier these days since the recipe was updated from on the cob to off the cob (I much prefer off for ease of eating and sharing!) The Coconut Cartel margarita was creamy and smooth and went down *quick* haha. Others in my party loved the spicy Margarito, although they were out of the main spicy tequila but the servers offered substitute recommendations. I came with a very large work group today, and the servers were so patient and flexible when we asked for modifications from the menu. I even was able to order the queso dip with the chorizo on the side (yummy but very thick cheese dip!), and they were very attentive of my colleague's mushroom allergy and made sure she got dedicated dishes, even when we were all sharing apps. The churro donuts seem to have changed recipe and got mixed reviews - some thought they were dry, another says she Uber Eats just those regularly Sitting outside in the summer on the patio is nice. Tasty, interesting dishes with modern urban twists on Mexican recipes. Truly the only slight downside is that sometimes parking can be tricky in this area, but you can always find free street parking, it may just take you a little bit. Even the funky and creative decor is a selling feature for me. A must-try!

    DELICIOUS! Their happy hour has changed a bit but they are still as good as ever- they even now let…read moreyou mix and match tacos for a platter- yay! Fantastic service and cool bar area- I always recommend this place to friends who are in the area! *Crispy fish tacos are still my favorite item on the menu. Carnitas tacos are my 2nd favorite but I need to try their Al Pastor next time! They also have really good chips and guacamole.

    I found Chilangos by serendipity: we were looking for a Mexican restaurant that was open on Tuesday…read moreand we liked the menu on the website because the food was true Mexican food, not the usual Americanized Mexican. So we took a chance. And we were not at all disappointed! First, we were greeted warmly, in a genuine way, by the owner. They seemed genuinely glad to have us. The older gentleman was friendly and playful towards my son. The food was delicious! I had enchiladas with housemate mole. The mole was fantastic: complex and nuanced. My daughter had enchiladas verde, which was smothered in a poblano salsa that was also complex, with great green heat. My son ordered the arracherra, a peppercorn rubbed steak served with homemade guacamole and a delicious cactus salad. I was tempted by several other dishes, particularly the enchiladas mineras (beef cheeks - yum!). All in all, a warm, welcoming, delicious experience that made me want come back. And I will.

    I used to come here all the time when I lived in Providence. In the three times I've been back over…read morethe last few years, I've had a couple stellar experiences and one subpar experience. But I'm someone that believes anyone can have an off day so overall this place is really great. First and foremost, get the margarita. They are the best I've ever had. Also, get the tacos. Even as an app they're so great. I got the shrimp and a veg recently. I've enjoyed all of the entrees I've ever gotten. Honorable mention is the shrimp Diablo. Super spicy and delightful. The interior is warm, cozy, and a perfect combo of lit enough so you can see but dark enough to set a mood for spilling tea or flirting with your date. Equal parts good for girls night and good for date night. The not so great: I got flautas once and they fell flauta (haha). Also, it's sometimes a one man show so service can be slow especially if you need refills so be sure to order multiple drinks at a time, or better yet a pitcher. Street parking can be a real pain but sometimes you get lucky on a side street. Definitely worth a visit if you've never been!
