Chilanga Taqueria comes across as a casual, cozy spot with generous portions and affordable prices, and many reviews praise the tacos, birria, suadero and other fillings as tasty and authentic, with drinks like margaritas that are well received. The menu is varied, including pastor, shrimp, chorizo, potatoes and enchiladas, and several readers call it the best tacos in town. The interior is described as basic but welcoming, and the staff are often friendly and quick, although service can be slow and experiences sometimes vary. The location in the Village attracts crowds for friends, family, dates or solo visits, and a small outdoor terrace is noted. A few reviews warn to check food before leaving due to occasional dryness or blandness, and there is mention of a no takeout policy in one note. Overall, Chilanga Taqueria is viewed as a strong option for authentic Mexican cooking in a casual, affordable setting, with experiences ranging from exceptionally delicious meals to occasional inconsistencies.
Great food, reasonable prices, fast service, friendly staff. Great choice for food if you're visiting the Village & unsure of what to eat. Can't go wrong here.
C'était ma première visite, la troisième pour mon amoureux Alejandro, un Mexicain de Guanajuato. Alejandro m'a expliqué que Chilanga est le nom utilisé pour désigner une femme ou une fille qui vient de la Ville de Mexico... comme nous dirions Montréalaise. Chilango pour un homme. Tout ça pour dire que depuis que nous sommes ensemble, un de nos plaisirs est de s'initier mutuellement à des choses nouvelles: des aliments, des plats, des lieux... & j'ai été COMPLÈTEMENT soufflé par Chilanga, cette taqueria au coeur du Village à Montréal. C'est bon, bon, bon! Nous avons mangé des tacos, des enchilladas & une torta avec un jus de Jamaica. Chaque bouchée était un délice pour les papilles. Un ravissement! Je recommande chaleureusement cette cuisine qu'Alejandro trouve authentiquement mexicaine. Tout était savoureux, bien cuit, frais... Excellent! On y retournera sans doute!
It was Amazing, completely unexpected. I wanted something different & was immediately drawn into the casual atmosphere with tons of eclectic personalities. Made for a fun evening with amazing food that I didn't expect for the area, it was that good, believe me it's worth a check out.
