Taquería Chilango Gr — Restaurant in Grand Rapids

This is hands down the most underrated taqueria in Grand Rapids and the surrounding areas – a true hidden gem for anyone craving authentic Mexican flavors. The menu is refreshingly simple, offering a selection of tacos, tostadas, quesadillas, and chilaquiles, but it’s all you need. The tortillas are handmade, and the meats are full of flavor, tender, and juicy. Tacos come with the traditional toppings of chopped onions and cilantro, and let me tell you, no taco is complete without its perfect companion – salsa! This place takes salsas seriously, offering a range of bold, flavorful options that pack real spice (and there’s something for every spice preference). Unlike the bland, watered-down salsas you often find elsewhere, these are vibrant, complex, and absolutely delicious.

The tacos and quesadillas are outstanding, but don’t miss the chilaquiles – especially with the green salsa. They’re hands down the best I’ve had. They also offer nopales – a cactus commonly used in Mexican cuisine – which makes for a great vegetarian option. It’s clear that a lot of love and passion go into every dish, and you can taste it in every bite. I have a deep appreciation for restaurants that go the extra mile to serve truly authentic food, and this place nails it. On top of the amazing food, the customer service is top-notch. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and more than happy to answer any questions about the menu. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, do yourself a favor and...

I go to their food truck on wealthy but can't wait to visit their storefront. Amazing flavors. Love vegetarian options. First time I ordered, he realized I was picking seafood or veggies and asked me to make sure, so the thoughtfulness of him was on point. My mexican boyfriend loves that their tortillas are fresh. Their pickled veggies on the side are a nice plus. One of my two favorites in GR for sure.

Found their storefront on Bridge and been there a couple times and will continue to. It's crazy, because i went on a Tuesday evening and saw a wait line next door at Condado's Tacos and no one at Chilango. Having been to both, I definitely prefer this place. My bf and I love their pickled veggies, homemade Tortilla and the spicy sauce. Everything is just...

I love that this is a different setting from most food spots in Eastown. It's a food truck but with a "permanent" location of sorts. It's on a little grassy lot with picnic tables. Quick, delicious, easy.

The guy was incredibly friendly and kindly explained a few of the taco options I didn't know. He recommended the cecina con papas (a type of beef with potatoes) and nopales en vinagre (pickled cactus) tacos. These turned out to be terrific recommendations. The pickled cactus was different and delicious and the cecina con papas!!!!!!!! It was insanely delicious. The food, paired with friendliness and casualness of the setting will definitely bring me...
