Chilangos Brothers Taco Shop

What a fantastic hidden gem 💎 The 1st time my friend Stacy, and I tried their tacos we craved them again the very next day. Yes, absolutely we went back and bought more tacos lol! Go check them out for yourself and see if you don't find yourself craving them too 💯 %

So….. i was so excited to see an Alberto’s being that I’m from california and my super nacho’s looked good and taste decent BUT….. As soon as I started eating after a few bites I see a dried up old french fry. I try to say okay maybe a fry got accidentally shuffled from another order but then I go to take another bite and there’s a crispy piece of bacon along with black smut from the grill. This is unclean and unsanitary. We go back and the my hubby shows the manager and he made excuses that what he found must have been in the bottom of the grease. He told my husband he would not refund. I then went in as the manager got in his car and pulled off and showed them the food again and told them this was nasty and u sanitary so the girl who works there said I will refund you, they tore up my original reciept and reprinted me one upon my request. I will be contacting the health department because this is not okay. I’m diagusted!!!! Never had this problem in Cali

Ordered via Grubhub and was NOT disappointed! I got a birria burrito and it was messy but the flavor was on point!!! Absolutely delicious! My husband got the quesabirria and it was delicious and the presentation was great for being a to go order. The guacamole was also super fresh! So glad to have decided to try this place!

Decided to try out this place after a day at the beach. Had the Gringa which was basically an al pastor quesadilla. Birria was flavorful but portion sizes were a bit small. Very cheesy though.Ambience was great with a lot of good music and decorations.

Don't go here unless you want to test your patience and over pay for just okay food. Their tacos are barely acceptable and I wouldn't go out of my way to come here for any of it. I waited in line over ten minutes just for ice because I didn't want to drink warm water with my meal. I was next in line and the lady at the counter was with one customer. That's it. Not busy on the phone. Not doing anything else. Just with that one customer. I ordered a California burrito with beef fajita that they said comes with fries. Fries never came. Asked the lady where my fries were and she said they were in my burrito. Why the hell are fries in my burrito? I thought it could be because it was very fat, not that I want them in there though. Cut open my burrito to surprisingly find it was made of about 90% lettuce, no fries, and a very thin layer of beans and beef (mostly beans). Was this burrito worth $12.99 with NO fries? Maybe if you're into over priced burritos that might as well be a salad. If so, then this place is for you.

It took 30 mins for 2 tacos and 1 guarache and they had no customers. Plus the tacos were cold. The meat had no flavor. First time and last time. Also barely any meat on the taco also the grill onion is extra.

Was looking for some good tacos and found this place while searching online. I had barbacoa tacos that were some of the best I’ve had. This place is off the beaten trail but certainly worth a short drive. I would certainly return.

Seems like a trendy place. The tacos are good. I wasn't impressed with the menudo or the birria ramen. But the tacos are good. I've been back several times now, and the quality stays the same, which is hard to keep up with all the specific ingredients that they keep on hand. The tacos de cabeza were delicious and unique. I can't think of very many places around that even offer these. Add in the suadero, cecina, and lengua, and I'd be pretty hard pressed to think of any other local shop making these offerings. This place is a gem that you shouldn't overlook, especially if you're really into tacos. I mean real authentic tacos.

This place is a hidden gem! We tried it for the first time today and I can't believe we've been missing out for so long. Everything we ordered was delicious. We had the chorizo cheese dip, guacamole, kids quesadilla with fries, Quesabirras, and the Birria Burrito. Great portions and everything was fresh. The staff was so friendly and all smiles. It was a really great experience all around. It's family friendly. Everything was so tasty! We can't wait to come back and try more menu items. Next on our list is the Birria Ramen!

June 11, 2024 Stopped in to try out this taco place... and i didn't even get tacos!! I had 2 beef tostados and beef alambre [see photos] Beef alambre had fat on the meat...and I don't like chewing on that, but the ground beef tostados were yummy! [some of the meat on the alambre was ham/pork not beef... which is fine but, not what i paid for]

Authentic, casual, and small spot with great food! However, they charge a hidden service fee ~3% if you look at the receipt. Service was overall good, and there's plenty of indoor seating. You order at the register and they will bring out your order to the table. It also smelt heavily of smoke, even though there was a no smoking sign, which made the experience less pleasant. We got the blue demon torta with pastor, egg, ham, and cheese. It was enormous! Half of it really fills you up. Also got a gordita with beef, which was super tasty. The tortillas are thick, warm, and chewy. The lemonade was refreshing and sweet! There's also a water station that is self-serve. Parking is free and plenty right outside, and there's a small donut and convenient store nearby in the same complex

In Galveston on vacation, looked on Yelp for some quick eats near me hotel. Chilangos popped up and decided to give it a try. Especially when I seen birria on the menu lol. Got there, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. I came in at a slow time so I was able take notice of the decor which was extremely cool. IMPORTANT: They make your order once you place your order so don't expect food to be out in 30 sec. I appreciate the quality and freshness of the Quesabirria and the Asada fries. Quesabirria w/ consume - 6/10 - everything smelled great. Taste was okay though. Meat wasn't very flavorful like usual birria. Consume was missing some flavor as well. Felt like it was missing some salt. Had to finish the tacos with their green sauce which was a 8/10. Asada Fries - 8.5 - This is a winner!! The fries cooked to perfection. Slight crunch and good saltiness. The steak kinda reminded me of sausage but nonetheless was good. The contrast with the hot fries and steak with the cold lettuce, pico and jalapeños topped with a good white queso. I loved every bite! Definitely worth visiting this restaurant especially since Galveston isn't loaded with unique options

Finally stopped in to try Chilangos Brothers. We've always wanted to try their tortas, but we both ended up getting tacos. We got the chorizo queso to start and it was one of the best things, love their chorizo. My husband got the Machette with asado and carnitas - he got through about half, but said it was fantastic. His favorite though was the rojo salsa it came with. I got the quesobirria tacos and they were great, well filled and seasoned. I just wish the consume already had the onions stewing for extra flavor. Fun place and quick service. Busy with lots of families, so hope to see this place do well. We'll be back to try the tortas!

This new place in town is everything! In Galveston we have tons of little places where you get tacos and authentic ones at that. Chilangos just opened up over the summer and trust me. They got it right. I ordered the Bedia tacos and they were cooked to perfection with cheese melted deliciously. Street tacos were the bomb. The Carne Asada was the bomb. Everything we ordered was delicious. It is a very clean environment. Limited seating, but clean and cool. You gotta try this place!

Food was made to order and so good. I will definitely be back because the menu is amazing. Ordered the Machete (18 inches of goodness) with a side of Charro beans and a side of rice. Also had the Turimisu and flan for desert also very good. Don't sleep on this place. Service was fast and friendly and the place was clean. Come here if you want good food.

We just ate at Chilangos. WARNING: if you want fastfood or are in a rush, go to taco bell. If you want really good Street Tacos, Tortas are other food, eat here. It is worth the wait. We order the La Cubana Torte, 5 Asada street tacos and a El Machata Quesadilla. OMG, all of it was amazing!!!!

This place is great! Each time I've been here the food has been top notch! Might be the best Mexican on the island. The quesadilla (or signature machete if you're starving or splitting) is amazing. Tried the steak and marinated pork versions and pork is the winner. The staff are friendly and efficient. The strip mall it's in is nothing special, but don't let it fool you about the quality inside.

Excellent and authentic food. Made fresh and tasty. As soon as I put the salsa and rice the freshness came to tingle my taste buds. The el Diablo burrito is huge!!!! And made to specification. Amazing service. Smiling faces. Clean ambiance. Mild music and very authentic.

Went late about 37 min to close. Ordered the pastor, birria tacos. The recommendation we got from others was spot on! These tacos were simply amazing!! The sauces were spicy and added just the right stuff to make the perfect meal! I even brought the sauce home! Folks this mom & pop should be on your list! It's not much to look at from the outside but don't let that put you off. The folks that run the place are all smiles and the food and atmosphere inside is perfect! Get here or miss out!!

I feel like we have been on a winning streak on the island but DAMN!! Once again I have had this place in my bin for a must try and today we did and once again my husband and I were pleased. They had a sign up saying to go only because the AC was out and to dine at our own risk. We found nothing to complain about as far as the temperature was concerned at 6pm. We each had 2 tacos. I went for 2 pork street tacos and he had 2 birria tacos. Outstanding! We were even given chips and salsa without asking. Customer service was outstanding and tacos were 10 out or 10. I love places like this. We will be back!

Food is great, definitely recommend the Quesobirrias, they were the perfect combo of crispy and juicy and l immediately went to get another order. The vibe of the place includes murals of iconic characters and Mexican culture/history! The staff is very friendly and answer as many questions and recommendations as needed. I was looking for a good taco spot on the island and this definitely is number one on my list.

A hole in the wall but the food is DELICIOUS. The staff is very courteous and professional. This place was so good my friend and I came back the following day to eat again. You can tell everything is made with care and integrity. Highly recommend.

We visited this restaurant after a doctor's appointment. I used Google to find nearby restaurants, and surprisingly, this one was right behind the clinic. The location is convenient with ample parking. The menu offers a unique twist, deviating from the typical Tex-Mex fare. The food was delicious, and the portion sizes were reasonable for the prices. Although the menu above the register might be a bit challenging to decipher, they provide menu cards that you can take to your table for easier reading. Orders and payments are made at the register. The ambiance is on the darker side, featuring painted walls adorned with images of characters from a Mexican TV comedy and wrestling masks. I give it less than 5 stars because they don't provide chips and salsa while you wait, and the strong smell of cigarette smoke inside makes the dining experience uncomfortable. For my next visit, I would consider ordering takeout.

Ordered from here and it was absolutely delicious Mmmm . Had tacos de cabeza and de lengua.... Making sure I get this again before heading back to Arizona

Fun, new taco shop. Great atmosphere, great artwork, friendly service, good food. This place makes me want to start watching Lucha Libre!

Really good food at affordable prices! I will absolutely be back. With that said, some feedback for the owners; - The person at the register needs to be friendly and engaging, not just an order taker. Trying to interact with her was like pulling teeth. She wasn't rude, so not complaining, but that is where the entire experience begins for your customers so make sure you are well represented. - Upgrade the plastic utensils. I don't mind plastic (although prefer corn based compostable) but at least don't buy stuff so cheap they are nearly unusable. - Get that trash area cleaned up. I know you are newly opened and just getting organized, but having clean stuff near the dirty trash does not instill confidence that the kitchen is not the same. I want to stress I think what you are doing with your food is fantastic and I do wish you the most success. But these things can make a difference.

Giving 4 stars because I want to see the business succeed. I went in for the first time and ordered 4 carne asada tacos and a side of charro beans to go... The menu wasn't the most straight forward but I managed. I didn't see an option to buy a taco plate with sides, it was Al a cart. @ $15.75 for 4 tacos and some beans it was a little pricier than a taco truck. There was enough meat on the tacos, but it was extremely over-cooked, the salsa that comes with the tacos were excellent. The beans were good, but I got such a small portion, at nearly $3 I was expecting more. Maybe it would've been different if I ate at the restaurant. Service was good, cashier was friendly. I'll give it another shot, but I was left wanting more.

Great AUTHENTIC tacos Best in the island 100% Get suadero or trompo tacos or burritos. SO GOOD

Came by for a late night meal and was very impressed! Tried the chile rellano meal, carne asada tacos, birria tacos, cheese curd tacos, and the Alambré - everything was delicious! The owner is very friendly and extremely accommodating. The atmosphere felt authentic and was comfortable. Would definitely bring my friends and family here!

Very good authentic tacos! Will be coming here more often for lunch! It's perfect. I didn't wait long either

I was pleasantly surprised. The food was great. The atmosphere was cool. We met the owner and he was polite and helpful. I had Barria tacos and they were phenomenal. I'm really glad I found this place. I'll definitely go back every time I visit Galveston. Parking was good. Easily accessible for the handicapped. Good seating.

Birria lovers assemble! By far the most delicious and authentic birria in Texas! Food was freshly made to order and well worth the short wait. We had the queso birria tacos and they were 10 out of 10. Simply delicious! Will definitely be back before we leave the island to try the Sudadero tacos!

Authentic Mexican food absolutely delicious! Decorated uniquely and the service is amazing. Thank you for the best tacos!

I ordered the quesabirria tacos and my boyfriend got the machete. Generous portions and good flavor. Great balance of juicy birria, and crispy corn tortillas. My only complaint is that the hot sauce is not spicy, but next time I'll ask the cook if maybe he can hook me up with something with a little more kick. The vibe is really cool and fun. Great place to bring the family when they come to visit.

We had gone the Chilangos Brothers upon recommendation of our friends. It surely didn't disappoint. The food was freshly prepared for our order and tasted phenomenal. Service was fast and accurate, and the ambiance was simple and clean. We will return.

Food was amazing, just the location isn't the best. Service was okay as well. Wish rice and beans came with most orders, but other than that would come back

Awesome food, and the service is nice too. It also has a good ambiance to just chill and eat your tacos. Best taco place I have found in Galveston, and I go as often as I can!

Authentic Taco shop with tacos, tortas, burritos and few specialty items. First time here so I asked the owner what was recommended. I went for the Quesabirria and for me this was the best bang for your buck, it was 3 corn quesadillas packed with birria meat and cheese served with broth for dipping for $9.99 These were good and very filling. Also tried tacos ($2.79 ea) to get a good tasting of foods, tried Al Pastor ( a little off as I have had the real deal in Mexico), Suadero shredded pork which was good and Asada which surprised me because it's not really what I ordered since I asked for chicharron. Tacos were decent, again, I know good Tacos. It was a To-go order so I do plan to visit again to dine in and try the Tortas and El Machete. I do agree with one post about keep the area clean as I noticed tables were not clean and the floor had food on it. It was 3 pm, so past lunchtime and plenty of time to tidy up. Hopefully this place makes it as it is the only one with this type of offering. They did charge a little extra for using card, but expected as it is a start-up business.
