"Chilte is located at the Egyptian Motor Hotel, part of the rapidly developing Grand Avenue neighborhood in Phoenix. Originally a pop-up, Chilte’s now has a permanent home at this retro and funky hotel, a perfect match for the restaurant’s ever-evolving, experimental menu. Dishes are Mexican influenced, with flavors inspired by the Southwest. Expect to see items like lamb neck charro beans or yuca fries complete with furikake. Items change constantly, so don’t be afraid to ask about the chef’s special or off menu dishes. The food may be serious but the vibe here isn’t: neon signs, boldly patterned tiles, and eclectic artwork on the whitewashed, brick walls pull it all together at this award-winning restaurant." - Asonta Benetti
