I’d been craving Barbacoa for a while and found Chilango Express LLC, I was shocked to find barbacoa and menudo in the mid west, so I had a half pound of barbacoa and a bowl of menudo, barbacoa was great and so was the menudo but they could of cut the pork fat a bit smaller and added hominy. Other than that everything was good, will definitely come back if I’m the area.
Mind on my mole, mole on my mind... Don't walk, RUN to Chilango expressss!! I had the Mole Chicken Chili Relleno which is seriously AMAZING! The sauces they they bring to the table packs a punch so proceed with caution! #redsauceisboss
Great food. The family who owns it is always there, they take great pride in their food and are incredibly friendly. There are tons of meat options, and also vegetarian options that I have not seen anywhere else. I've been coming for 10 years now. They are easily my favorite.Food: 5/5
Chilango Express is our favorite restaurant and they recently served food for our wedding. Their food is amazing and they are a great catering service. All of the guests at our wedding really enjoyed the food and could not stop talking about it. The family that owns this business is very humble and put a lot of love into what they do. I highly recommend this restaurant.
This was my first time eating at this restaurant. I ordered a steak burrito dinner. Halfway through eating it I started getting really bad stomach pains. I stopped eating the burrito and not even 3 minutes later, I threw up. I wouldn’t recommend the steak. I’m assuming it wasn’t properly cooked or prepared correctly.
Such great value, consistently reliable and nice service, fab hibiscus tea. This is our neighborhood go-to for fast and yummy takeout.
Uhm, yum, yum yum yummy! I used to go to Chilango Express when it was connected to the gas station on 68th St. I have not been there since they opened their new place. Their new place is obviously a lot bigger and has plenty more seating. The customer service was still great if not better. I immediately asked if they still make their corn tortillas fresh in house and the answer was YES! So that immediately made me happy! They are currently a mask required restaurant with a smaller capacity seating due to covid, which is okay with me. I had the Friday fish fry special but had them grill it uncoated, with Nopales cactus and mushrooms on top. The fish is steamed then placed in a pan and fried. It is a tilapia which I also don't mind. I have to say this tilapia was super super I mean super juicy and beyond tender! I mean it was so soft and flakey that it basically melted in my mouth! Then with the nopales, mushrooms and some lime, I want to be hungry again writing this just so I can go back and get more! Oh then have it all on a homemade tortilla! I can't stop! I need more! Okay okay, my wife had chicken enchiladas with mole sauce and the mole sauce was perfect. I believe it paste based then made fresh at the restaurant. This sauce is probably the best mole I have had in a restaurant in a long time. My wife loved her dish! My son had chicken tacos on homemade tortillas and when he took his first bite his eyes opened so wide and he said, Dad this is so good! Excellent food is all I have to say! Oh and for the veggie eaters they still have plenty of veggies only options like pumpkin flower tacos, corn truffle and more!
Being from California and been to Mexico multiple times this place remind me of home At least 4 the food that I tried the taste and smell brought me back Big portions of food and not over price at all Great staff speedy service I especially like that they offer meats that other Mexican restaurants don't offer Like tongue head and tripas Which is pretty much deep fried chitlins
We have been coming here for a few years now. Lately the food has not been that great, not sure if they have a different cook but the food is not the same. The flavors are not there anymore. If you order tacos you expect to have enough meat in there you get more cilantro and onions than you do meats. Unfortunately I will have to find another place to eat when I visit Milwaukee .
Had the barbacoa enchiladas, wasnt bad but not my favorite. if I go back I will try a different meat selection as I'm a Ground beef person and they dont carry that. Salsa and chips were good tomatillo sauce was also very good
