Chilacates Chestnut Hill #4

Used to really like this place. Most recent experience has me never going back. Food has gone from exceptional to horrible over the years as the prices have climbed. Recently bought some nachos and a Birria taco plate. Photos speak for themselves. Nacho’s are flavorless and bland, the only redeeming quality is the meat. The taco plate is like a make your own taco plate but the ingredients are all dry and terrible like a boring rice bowl. $40 for this

The service is good . They have plenty of parking . I ordered the steak quesadilla with a Mexican Soda. The cost was about $20.00 . The quesadilla came with guacamole, sour cream , and pico de gallo included in the price . The food portions were good . They were generous with the guacamole as well . The bathrooms were clean and the establishment was clean . They have amble seating inside and outside . I chose to eat outside on this beautiful evening my dinner , which I mentioned above . They have free mints in the front counter. 🙏🏼

I'm sorry to write a mediocre review, but our experience was sub-par in comparison with other taquerias. Convenient location near a mall with a free parking lot. Beautiful interior decor, clean restrooms. The first issue is that there were no prices on the menu, which makes it unfair for customers. Prices are pretty high, $16 for 3 biria tacos, which were very greasy and salty. The chicken burrito was good and fairly priced, under $11. Seating was not so comfortable, either the table is too high or the chairs are too low. They don't provide real utensils, only disposable, and no plates for sharing. Also no cups and free water, as seen at Tango Mango for example. Lastly, the cashier lady was not so friendly or service oriented. She was too busy around lunch time, taking care of walk-in customers and also phone orders. Somehow other places manage to do it better and make customers feel welcomed and appreciated.

Really tasty tortas and enchiladas. The seating is a little tight and is really on suitable for 3 moderate sized groups. So don't have high expectations of being able to dine in.

My go to take-out place. Chilacates is an easy dinner or lunch spot with great food and kind workers. The restaurant is decorated beautifully and eating in is always a treat. The bowl of mints at the ordering counter is the nicest touch!

Another great find from searching Google maps. Great atmosphere with tasty food. I had the fish Burrito with black beans, rice, mixed vegetables and cheese. My wife had vegetable enchiladas with black beans and rice. Plus, a from Mexico glass bottle Coca Cola. Staff seemed nice. Very nice restroom. If you are in the area, I can suggest trying out Chilacates.

The tortas and the burritos from Chilacates are our favorite! We also ask for the salsa verde and roja which pair deliciously. We always make an effort to stop by when we are in the area. For a sweet treat we also like their tres leches cake.

Good lunch. however a little time consuming. the food took 10 minutes to assemble. the environment is cool. receptionist service was good the food was cold but the mexican type taste i like. for the amount of food served I thought the price was high.
