" Tried La Casita Chilanga after seeing it all over social media. The tortas did not disappoint! They were enormous and delicious, but I found the waiting time a bit long during peak hours. It was busy, which I guess is a sign of quality! Return customers filled the place, and that speaks volumes. Definitely coming back for those huge portions! " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic tortas! My friend took me here on a recommendation, and I can see why people rave about it. The tortas are massive, filled with tons of ingredients and the flavors are spot on. It's easy to overlook the small size of the restaurant when you're devouring one of those sandwiches! The only downside was the long line on a Saturday afternoon but I've learned it's worth the wait! " (*Curated Review*)

" Really delicious tortas – I got the Cubana and it was monstrous! Tasted fresh, really good quality ingredients. The service could be better, as I waited longer than expected, but the food makes up for it. Perfect for take-out since the seating is limited. I didn’t mind because it gave me the chance to eat while enjoying a sunny day at the park nearby! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't believe the size of the torta for the price! The flavors are authentic and they have a nice selection. I had the torta al pastor and it was fantastic. Friendly staff made the experience enjoyable, despite some wait time due to the crowd. Overall, if you’re in the area, don’t miss out on this place! " (*Curated Review*)

" This joint does an amazing job of capturing the essence of tasty Mexican tortas. I had the Torta Cubana and it was impressive in both flavor and size. Staff was friendly enough even though it was super busy. Just be ready for a bit of a wait and to maybe take your food to go. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for something filling and authentic in the area. Can't wait to come back and try more from the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" La Casita Chilanga might be small, but they certainly pack a punch with their tortas! The Torta de Asada I had was full of rich flavors and generous portions. I highly recommend stopping by for a quick bite, although expect to take your food to go quite often. Staff is generally friendly but can be a bit overwhelmed during lunch hours. Overall, great food to satisfy your cravings! " (*Curated Review*)

" Hands down the best tortas I've ever had! La Casita Chilanga has an incredible selection, and each sandwich bursts with flavor. I ordered the Al Pastor torta and it was packed with delicious ingredients. The only downside was the cramped quarters, but that adds to its charm. I’d keep coming back for the food alone—truly authentic and fulfilling! " (*Curated Review*)
