READ BEFORE BUYING CARNE ASADA. I have to say I'm super sad about how bad Chilaquil has gotten. Normally, the carne asada street tacos are delicious- but the last time I went, my mom noticed immediately that the meat was not good, had hard chunks and very tough. At first I was skeptical, I nearly vomited across the table when I found pieces of what looked like heart valves or intestines or arteries- I have no idea what meat they are serving, but it is not top sirloin and it is certainly not carne asada.
Update: Brought the piece of cow valve to the employees and they went back with a flashlight to check the rest of the meat. Came back to me and confirmed that ALL OF THE CARNE ASADA MEAT WAS BAD, and that they were calling their own supplier to get a refund for the meat! They supposedly were given mysterious steak that was not top sirloin (which is what they advertise on their sign), but did not notice that they were serving nasty ground up God knows what to naive unknowing customers.
I feel bad that this could lead to bad business for the restaurant, but we MUST hold restaurants to a higher standard when it comes to the ingredients they use. Anyone with eyes could tell that the meat was disgusting, and if you could easily confirm within a few seconds of checking then clearly there was no regard on part of the employees for the poor customers who ended up eating it. If you can't afford meat that does not contain heart valves and arterial tissue, and if you're willing to serve mystery meat to whoever will pay, then maybe you shouldn't be allowed to be a restaurant. It's just not right and I still feel sick to my stomach.
