Asadero Chikali is a hidden gem in LA known for authentic and flavorful Mexican food. The restaurant offers some of the best tacos in the area, with carne asada tacos on flour tortillas being highly recommended. Customers appreciate the service and enjoy the salsa tray brought to the table, adding extra flavor to their meals. The tortillas are described as spectacular, and the toppings are always fresh, including pico de gallo and various salsas with good heat.
The menu features a variety of options, such as chikali bowl and quesatacos, as well as a selection of guisados like bistec con Papa, chicharron, eggs with chorizo, and carne con chile. These guisados are braised very well, flavorful, and prepared in a style reminiscent of Mexicali cuisine with northern influences. A sampler of guisados allows diners to try multiple dishes, though some find the portion of tortillas a bit limited for the amount of food.
The atmosphere is casual, with friendly staff providing attentive service. While parking can be hectic and tight, the overall experience offers delicious, authentic Mexican food that connects diners to roots and culture. Perfect for tacos, flavorful guisados, and a warm, welcoming environment.
