“We had our holiday party here and it was absolutely amazing!! Starting with the frozen margaritas, through the chips, salsa, queso and table side fresh guacamole and onto the tacos, quesadillas and burritos the food was delicious and authentic. Of course a great dining experience includes both food and service and just like the food the service was top notch. The staff truly made it a wonderful experience. Before we left we were already planning a return visit!“

“Great comeback! Updated to 5 stars

I wasn’t too pleased with my visit two months ago (which is why I originally left a 2-star review), but I’m back to set the record straight!
I came back last Sunday, and the experience was night and day. The customer service was fantastic from start to finish. I ordered the birria taco meal, and everything was served fresh, hot, and flavorful. The fresh vegetables on the side were absolute perfection, and the pricing was super reasonable for the quality.
Definitely a 10/10 visit this time around—so glad I gave them another shot!“

“We had such a wonderful experience here! The food was absolutely amazing, fresh, authentic, and came out incredibly fast everything was hot and delicious. The restaurant was very clean, including the restrooms, and the entire staff was so friendly and welcoming.

Our server, a blonde woman from Honduras, provided excellent service. I truly wish I remembered her name because she deserves a special shoutout! We’re from Mexico, so we really appreciate authentic Mexican food, and this place did not disappoint. The fresh tortillas were definitely a highlight! 🌮
Highly recommend El Chango Borracho!“

“I only tried the tacos and they were good. After ordering, you have to wait a little while for your food. It's a small place with a window for ordering. There's a communal table outside where you can eat, but it's a bit uncomfortable.“
