My wife and I were staying about 10 minutes away, and we wanted to get some great Mexican food without breaking the bank at lunchtime. Chilacates advertises as Mexican street food, and we were delighted at the authenticity of our meals! My wife had a taco bowl with chicken, and I had the taco plate with steak. Both were just flavor explosions in our mouths. This restaurant is highly recommended for great Mexican food at a great price!

The prices are low and the food quality is SO high! I was blown away by the flavor in the chicken!
There is limited parking out front. Very friendly staff.
Lots of seating inside and out.
My meal was so filling I didn’t finish and it was only $12!

The tacos were and I loved the tamale. I liked that the al pastor taco had warm chucks of pineapple. The shredded radish on top gave the tacos a refreshing taste. Would definitely go back.

So I was looking for a place to eat for lunch when I came across chilacates. At first I thought it was a New Mexican restaurant but when I arrived I realized it’s the previous Mexican place that was there but with a rebrand. The counter lady was clearly overwhelmed which lead to a line of people waiting to place their orders. I got the chicken burrito with the flan. The burrito was full but poorly wrapped. The tortilla was very chewy as well. The flan was very hard, not firm but hard. The add insult to injury I had to go to the fridge and grab my own flan just for the counter could place it in the bag. I guess I work part time here too
Honestly I would not recommend it for the price.

Elevated casual taqueria experience with solid food.
Chilacates expanded aggressively throughout the city last year, and this West End location was one of them. Although I haven’t visited their original Amory Street location, this new outpost impressed with its comfortable seatings and a clean, modern interior. I came a couple times before TD garden events and always had a solid meal.
Although Chilacates is more known for their burritos among the locals, I got to try some of their other offerings on the menu. The Taco Plate and Carne Asada Quesadilla, in particular, were some of my favorites. The Birria in the burrito bowl was also soft and tender, but the beans were slightly undercooked, giving them a harder texture than preferred.
From their dessert and drinks, both the churros and the horchata were great. Horchata had a slightly stronger cinnamon flavor compared to what you might find at other taquerias around the city, but it was still refreshing.
With its rapid expansion, Chilacates now rivals chains like Chipotle in number in Boston. If you’re looking for a more authentic Mexican experience, Chilacates is a compelling alternative with its more diversified menu. It may not be the best Mexican food in the city, but it’s good enough to fulfill Mexican food cravings.

This place is so inconsistent which shows they don’t really care about the quality.
It can be good one day but there have been multiple times I’ve ordered and the meats are super dry and overcooked. They would rather get rid of what they have even if it’s old and flavorless then make something fresh for you.
The tamales are steamed again with so much water and moisture that enter killing all flavor. I’m guessing they just leave them there until someone orders and they do this to get the tamales soft again….Terrible quality and it just shows they don’t care.
I love Mexican food and there was a time I thought this place was good but not anymore. You never know what you’re going to get when you come here. It’s either solid or terrible depending on what they’re trying to get rid of….

The restaurant is really nice , the atmosphere really gets you into the Spanish vibe, the service was great , and the food was cooked infront of you.
As for the food I got a lengua torta, and let me tell you it’s one of the bests one I’ve had. The bread was soft but crispy, the meat was seasoned well and with a lot of cheese added in. The spicy sauce was delicious it reminded me of a Spanish candy but better. The fresh cilantro sauce really cleans your pallet for the heaviness of the food

Came here recently and ordered a burrito bowl with chicken, rice, cheese. Overall, the food wasn’t bad, but there were a few things worth pointing out.
First, the sour cream was very watery. It still tasted like sour cream, but the texture was off. The biggest issue, however, was the chicken. My girlfriend took a bite and nearly choked on a bone, which I initially didn’t believe until I found a couple bones in mine too. Definitely something to be aware of not ideal for a burrito bowl.
The rice was actually really good, but the horchata was a major disappointment. I’ve had horchata my whole life, and this tasted nothing like it. It had a strong, spicy cinnamon flavor almost like Hot Tamales candy rather than the smooth, sweet cinnamon taste you’d expect. It was $4.50 and I couldn’t finish it after two sips. Even my girlfriend said it tasted spicy, which isn’t what horchata should be at all.
Not a terrible experience, but definitely some things that need improvement especially the bones in the chicken and the horchata recipe.

I accidentally ordered something to this restaurant. Called immediately asking for a refund because I made a mistake and ordered from the wrong location. The lady who answered told me to do it on the website, which was their own website, which said to call the restaurant with refund issues. I called again, relaying this info to the same lady. She said I’ll get my boss to handle it, I say “okay, thank you” and then she hangs up on me. Looks like I won’t be getting my money back. $14 gone, but at least I could feed one of the employees there.

Late post. I love Mexican food but I can never find a place that serves hard shell tacos, and to my surprise, they had hard shell tacos!!! I ordered 2 chicken and a beef taco to go. That was a mistake, I should’ve ordered more. Unfortunately, I don’t live in Boston to frequent this place but when I’m in the area, I’ll definitely come back. My tacos were delicious.
