" What a hidden gem! I stumbled upon Chinantla while driving around and decided to give it a try. I went for the burrito and was blown away by the size and irresistible flavor. You can taste the freshness in every bite, and the ingredients were clearly of high quality. There was a slight delay in service, but the charming environment and incredible food made it all worth it in the end. I'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have been going to Chinantla for the last couple of years, and it never disappoints. Their mole burrito is my go-to dish, and it is always packed with flavor—just delicious! I appreciate the authentic taste of their food which often reminds me of a trip to Mexico. The service can be a bit hit or miss, especially during busy hours. However, the consistently amazing food keeps bringing me back. Overall, if you're looking for an authentic taste of Mexico in a cozy local spot, this is the place for you. " (*Curated Review*)

" As an aficionado of Mexican food, I can assure you that Chinantla serves one of the best chiles rellenos I’ve ever tasted! Rich, hearty, and beautifully presented. The only downside was the service; it was a bit slower than I anticipated. It may be because they were quite busy, which shows how beloved this place is! Overall, I highly recommend it for the food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Having just moved to the area, I was excited to find Chinantla after hearing good things. I ordered the pozole and guacamole, and they did not disappoint. The flavors were spot on, reminding me of my grandmother's cooking from childhood. While the food was excellent, the service felt a bit chaotic during the lunch rush, which is understandable given their popularity. I look forward to numerous repeat visits! " (*Curated Review*)

" Chinantla is a diamond in the rough! Initially, I wasn't sure what to expect from a bodega turned restaurant, but I was blown away by the flavors. I had the enchiladas and they were packed with freshness; the sauce was incredibly flavorful. However, the seating area could use a bit more cleaning, which is something to consider. Even though the service was adequate, it felt a bit disorganized at times. Nonetheless, I’d recommend it for anyone craving authentic Mexican cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" Chinantla never fails to serve up some amazing authentic Mexican food! Their tacos de pastor are the best I've had outside of Mexico. The freshness and flavor are impeccable and you can see the chefs working in an open kitchen which really adds to the colorful experience. My only complaint would be about the cleanliness of the dining area at times, but the food makes up for it easily. Whether you're looking to try or grab something to go, I would highly recommend it! " (*Curated Review*)

" From the moment we walked in, we loved Chinantla. The vibrant mural on the wall caught our eye, and the lively atmosphere reflected the authentic Mexican culture. The carne asada tacos were delectable, and we appreciated the fresh-made tortillas that made the experience that much better. Portions were something to rave about—huge! We enjoyed our meal, but the service was a bit slow. I can see why this place is so popular; it has that local charm and heart. I’d recommend visiting during off-peak times for a more relaxed experience. " (*Curated Review*)
