We were excited to eat here, but left disappointed. The food was good, but definitely isn't worth…read morethe steep price. They refuse to serve tap water and only allow you to purchase water bottles (cheap, generic kind), which is ridiculous. They give you salsa, but you have to pay for chips. The restaurant itself was very noisy from fans/music/staff and it was hard to talk at our table. $70 (before tip) for 2 orders of tacos, 1 non-alcoholic beverage, and chips/guac is absurd. We won't be back.

Rarely do I write a review after just 1 visit, but I'm making an exception for this little gem!…read more I've known of this place for years, but never stopped in before. I was glad that I did finally drop in. Located in a little strip mall on Valley Road, it's an unassuming place from the outside. The inside is small, but comfortable and it felt very "homey". When I walked in, the first thing that hit me was the smell of delicious food wafting through the air. The tastes did not disappoint. We were greeted and sat promptly by a personable young man that brought us water. The owner then brought us our drinks...a margarita for my dining companion and a Mandarin Jarritos for me. My sip of the margarita tasted amazing! Great balance and flavor. We also received a basket of chips and salsa. You could tell that they were made fresh to order. The chips were crispy and hot. The salsa was outstanding...fresh cilantro...balanced combination of flavors with a nice, subtle kick of spiciness at the back end. Not too spicy...just right. I usually have to ask for something hotter...not in this case. The food was amazing! My dining companion ordered the Chile Relleno plate and I got the Molcajete. The prices are outstanding and the amount of food? Huge plates! My Molcajete was sizzling hot and overflowing with chicken, beef, shrimp, nopales and ground beef mixed with veggies. A large plate of refried beans and spanish rice also accompanied this presentation. Fresh, hot, delicious corn tortillas rounded out each of our orders. We were also given a couple of squeeze bottles of sauces...green and red...to add to our meals if we wanted. Freshly made and the bottles were presented in a plastic tub filled with ice to keep them cold. Great addition to the already amazing food! There's also a nice selection of Mexican hot sauces on the table for you to choose from. We both took to-go boxes...so much food! Mine lasted for 2 more meals! I plan to return on a regular basis...this is now one of my favorite local places for great Mexican food. As always, I suggest that you visit to see what YOU think...

In town visiting the kiddos and had a craving for Mexican food. Mexcal was the place of choice…read more It's a quaint little restaurant located in an old tavern building. The employees were extremely friendly and attentive to patron needs. We were seated on the back patio and were immediately asked if we wanted any drinks. We received our adult beverages with chips and guacamole. For what you get, the guac was very tasty with beautiful presentation but pricey at $11. Dinner was yummy and hit the spot for our cravings, It's not authentic flavors but worth a try. The chicken enchilada was plump with meat and the special chorizo steak taco was delightful. A nice place for tacos, tostadas, enchiladas and great camaraderie.

Our other…read moreexperience wasn't great, but we've been back several times since then, and they've completely redeemed themselves. The service has been consistently friendly, and the food has been amazing every time. It's actually becoming one of our go-to spots when we're craving Mexican food. As someone who's used to Southern California Mexican food, I usually find a lot of the Mexican restaurants in Reno to be a bit bland. Chihuahuas is one of the few places I've found that has those bold, authentic flavors and reminds me of home. We're really glad we gave them another chance!

We got right in and I asked to sit at the bar right in front of the tv. The staff were super friendly and the bartenders chatted with us the whole time while also enjoying the fight themselves in between making their drinks. The food was super delicious. We ordered Aguachile (really good but super sour), pineapple jalapeño wings (too sweet and not my fave), ribeye chicharron........be prepared to cough and have the people sitting near you cough non stop lol.

Quality/Quantity - Craving tacos so we wanted to check out this place…read more Both my wife and I got the Tacos de Barbacoa and we both enjoyed this over the other tacos. My wife's regular taco was chicken and mine was chorizo. I enjoyed my chorizo taco also. The tacos came with both a green and red sauce, both of which were good. The red sauce had a slight kick to it. Overall the food and tacos were good. Simple menu. Lunch specials available. Complimentary chips and salsa - The salsa was thin, I prefer a thicker salsa. Not much quantity so we had to ask for more. They gave us a little more. Seemed kind of stingy. Ambiance - Decent size location. Not busy at all on a Friday prime dinner time. This should have been a sign... Table, booth, and bar seating. Limited mall parking in front, but no problem getting a good space. Your outside signage needs some repairs. Service - Just okay. I had to ask for everything; utensils, more chips, etc. The younger female employee was better than the older one. Price - $19; reasonable. Plus a more generous tip then earned... But I did NOT appreciate the hidden charges. 50¢ extra for chorizo. 3.5% credit card fee. If you disclosed it, it would NOT have made a difference, but nowhere on the menu nor did any employee mention these additional charges. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 2018...?

I've been to (almost*) every Mexican restaurant in Reno and this is the one I keep coming back to…read moreand keep recommending. The torta ahogada with the carnitas is a culinary delight! The bread is somehow soaked in a sauce but still crunchy just beneath the sauce, and springy/chewy in the middle. The flavors are rich and amazing. Finally you can add the spicy hot sauce if you want and you will be sweating bullets but happy about it at the same time. I also love the tacos de canasta as a fun and delicious appetizer. The food is always comes out super fast, and I leave super happy. The only gotchas are that only some of the staff speaks English so be ready for that, and that they have live music at night on the weekends, and it tends to get a little loud in the building. *I haven't been to 1 in Reno yet because it's hasn't been open the 3 times I've tried, and I haven't been to all the places in the valleys yet.

Here they serve free chips and salsa and they make homemade tortillas. The ceviche and shrimp cocktails are delicious. The carne asada and carnitas is also delicious.

The service was good even with a full restaurant one time we went.
