I’ve been craving a taco salad for a few days and I enjoyed one tonight. Taqueria el Chavo,the hole in the wall near Yummy’s donuts was a Mexican place I had not tried. The fried tortilla bowl was perfect. Ground beef, rice beans, lettuce, sour cream, pico, guacamole was fresh and properly portioned. It was attractive and delicious. I can’t wait to try some other selections. Highly recommend! It was also the best price. There is a picture of the LAST SUPPER on the wall too. I’m FULL.

Small - friendly- authentic- great prices - great food . We had enchiladas supremas and a variety of tacos .It’s low key and casual.Flavorful.

Many times a restaurant that isn’t the prettiest on the outside turns out to have the most amazing and memorable food. It’s a typical hole-in-the-wall story, but Taqueria El Chavo did not suffice to this title.As fun as well-decorated businesses are, I don’t try to judge them based on that. If I did, this place would quickly have lost all interest. It was barren and pretty dirty, and the lighting was pretty dark.We sat down and it took quite awhile to be served. The waitress really acted like she didn’t want to be there nor serve us. All of it was honestly pretty painful.I ordered a special burrito, and I have to say it was actually really good! It was juicy and full of veggies, rice, and protein just the right amount. I must have chosen the perfect plate, because none of the rest of the 9-10 people in my group had a whole lot to say about their dishes. They said it was okay but not too great. So overall it’s definitely a middle of the road experience.

This place is amazing great birria tacos and all around great Mexican food comparable to west coast Mexican foodGreat if I could give a 10 I would

My wife and I stopped in on a slow Sunday afternoon. Taqueria El Chavo was running a special that included Taco Birria with a special sauce which we both ordered. Each of us received a cup of the sauce. I dipped my taco into the cup of sauce and to my surprise discovered what a truly delicious taco tastes like. It was absolutely fantastic! My wife agreed, that these were the most delicious tacos that we have ever eaten. We can't wait to go back!

Great food. But as a mother they need to fix their hours on the Internet it said they were open and I pulled up at 3 PM and they were closed. but on the big black chalkboard it said open at 4:30 PM. Just waste of time if they can just fixer hours or not lie

Delicious authentic Mexican food. The salsa verde was incredible!

My friend’s order was messed up at a previous restaurant (she has a severe tomato allergy) so we came to this small business and the service was outstanding. They made sure there were no tomatoes or cross-contamination, and even made a side of guacamole special for her without tomatoes. So thankful for them!!

You don’t need to die in silence because you are afraid of scammers, take a step today and you will smile later because dr izebere is great and real. his spell has no side effects and your problems will be solved within 24 hours

The worst Mexican food and service. There is a random hand written note on the front desk stating that tacos are now $3.00 upon proceeding to pay, keep in mind the menu clearly says $2.50, but whatever. We were up charged for everything with no prior notice. The food was not fresh or tasty. Not worth it. I would never visit this establishment again.
