    What a nice little taco place. I went here with a friend and when you walk in it instantly feels inviting. It was nice that there was quite a bit of space to spread out and you don't feel like you're sitting on top of anybody. We also loved that there was an open condiment bar that we were able to grab our onions, cilantro, limes, guacamole and salsas but we had to ask the kitchen for a plate to put all the goodies on. We both ordered three tacos, I got two carne asada and one al pastor. You get the choice of corn or flour tortillas and I chose flour. The tacos arrived fairly quickly and all of the meats were super fresh and delicious. The only call out I would say is they are very small for $2.86 each. Next time I would have gotten an additional taco as I was still hungry. Other than that, we we enjoyed our time here and appreciated that we were able to talk without feeling like we needed to give up our table. I'll definitely go back.

    I've been to this restaurant a couple of times and I'm never disappointed. Their food is so delicious! The restaurant is clean with a lot of sitting. Love seeing both flags hanging this last time I went in for lunch. This is my go to Mexican spot when I'm near Tolleson/Avondale. The service was fast and they always have condiments ready for you to help yourself with.

    I stopped by Tacos Calafia, hoping for some delicious tacos. The interior is spacious, and they seem quite busy. They offer the usual grilled meats carne asada, al pastor, pollo , cabeza, and Nopales but very few ways to try those meats. I ordered a carne asada taco $2.99 and a Vampiro $4.72 with a small drink. I have to say I was really disappointed the taco and Vampiro were comically small they must use the smallest tortillas you can buy! The best part of the meal was a very good salsa bar with several salsas, guacamole, grilled onions, and peppers. I spent $11.00 and left hungry so much so I bought a burger on the way home! In my opinion, the food is not worth the prices that they charge for petite tacos and Vampiros.

    On a road trip out of town we needed a little bit of food but just couldn't fathom hitting a fast food place. I looked this up on yelp and decided to give it a try. I'm glad we did. It's very simple. A couple of meats, couple styles and an awesome salsa bar. One thing that was amazing was the Beans that you can add meat to. This is so delicious and reminds me of Home. Like a little mini bean soup with cheese and meat. The prices are really great here and it looks like they have amazing family deals.

    This is a convenient and quick taco spot. I tried the carne asada, el pastor, and cabeza tacos. They are very small, I could have easily had about 4 or 5 since I was so hungry haha. We ordered chips and guac. Guac wasn't what we were expecting, it's the same you get at the salsa bar. They have a good salsa bar and the margaritas were surprisingly delicious. Service was quick and efficient! Definitely worth a try.

    One of my top go-to places when I am in the mood for tacos. One of the things that has always stood out to me was them having a nopal option. They also have a good michelada mix. The line moved pretty quickly for a weekend and there wasn't a lot of people so we were able to get a table right away. They have a great selection of sauces and other toppings. I appreciate them adding a space to grab grilled onions instead of having to ask every time!

    Quesadilla Carne Asada, as u can see you do not see the cheese

    First time here and last. For the price of these tacos it is not worth it. The asada taste like it was a day old and the pastor in the trompo also looked a day old. Only thing I liked was the chicken. Let alone the quesadilla was missing cheese.

    I love coming here for some delicious tacos! They offer a whole condiment area that's up for the grabs! Unlimited guacamole and salsas. They also have specials every day of the week and happy hour and recently have breakfast burritos available!

    Overall so good! We originally drove over to this area to go to a different place but didn't know…read morethey closed and I'm so happy this was the first suggestion for birria!! I got a birria taco and my hubs got an al pastor quesadilla. We also got a side of rice and horchata. Horchata- creamy and delish (which says a lot because I don't usually care for it) Rice- was good to me but the peas could be left out lol Quesadilla- the meat was flavorful and owned every bite. Tortilla was nice and everything was a perfect ratio Birria- OMG! The flavor was perfect and the cheese. It was so hard not to eat it in one bite lol. I foot to add consume but honestly it didn't need it. I loved the flavor and how tender the meat was I've driven past the Litchfield location and always wanted to try so I am happy we made it into this location! Definitely will have to make my way to that one since it's a little closer to home. Also the seating is ample inside and the girls are nice! Kitchen was quick as well. Even when it was dead to watching alone form, they busted out those orders

    I found this spot tucked away in a Fry's plaza honestly surprising since I've been in the area…read moreplenty of times and never noticed it before. I stopped by on a Saturday night to finally check it out. As soon as I walked in, I noticed the trompo right away, which is always a good sign. I stepped up to the counter and was greeted with a warm smile from the young lady up front. After looking over the menu, I ordered two tacos de tripa and two tacos de suadero. She asked if I wanted the tripas extra crispy I said no. I also asked how they prepare the suadero since I didn't see a choricera, but she wasn't sure. When the food came out, the tripas were a letdown. The texture was off, almost like a stale chip, and they were clearly overcooked. I asked if I could swap them for something safer, so I went with asada instead, but that didn't impress either. It didn't taste very fresh. Now here's the reason you should come to Tacos Chilangos: the suadero. Even though it's not cooked the traditional way, it was absolutely delicious. Perfect meat-to-fat ratio, super flavorful, and easily the standout. The guacamole salsa was top tier. I kept going back to that one over the others. All in all definitely stop by to try the suadero as for as the other two I'd would probably give them a second try.
