A diner from Horizon City, TX Apr 21, 2010
This the worst place I've ever eat. When we moved from Long Beach, CA to El Paso everybody named this place like if it were the greatest thing in El Paso, but believe me it is not. I do not know what type of food is this, because mexican it's not. I couldn't even finish my plate. So please, if you have friends coming out of town do not take him to Chico's, it is not a nice place to remember about El Paso.
A diner from Austin, TX Aug 17, 2009
Chicos Tacos To Go please!!! Since I can remember Chicos Tacos has been an El Paso icon. I love their beautifully rolled tacos covered in their secret sauce. My only wish is that i still lived in El Paso. Every time I visit I make sure to get Chicos Tacos To Go Go GO!!!

A diner from Houston, TX Apr 23, 2009
I am from El Paso and plan to visit soon. Living in Houston I constantly crave for those Chico's with extra cheese. If I only had the recipe. I remember the one on Dyer and Washington Park area. There is no place like home when it comes to Chico's.
A diner from El Paso, TX Jun 17, 2008
This place is delicious. The food is always served hot, it is quick, and the taste, flawless. The green sauce is absolutely incredible and quite impossible to duplicate. You won't find crispy, steaming tacos with yellow melty cheese in a red tomato chile sauce like this anywhere else on earth.
If you want real authentic Mexican flavor for a low price, check this place out. Come hungry; this ain't P.F. Changs.
A diner from Kanab, UT Jul 24, 2007
Chico's Tacos has improved in appearance over the years, but even in the ghetto parts, Chico's just can't be beat for taste. They are addicting! Ask any real El Pasoen and they'll tell you the first place they go when coming back in to town is Chico's Tacos
A diner from San Diego, CA Jul 8, 2007

A diner from Corpus Christi, TX Mar 23, 2007
I grew up in El Paso and I now live in Corpus Christi,TX,for the past 15 yrs. I still visit El Paso and everytime I go straight to Chico's Tacos before I visit family. My family lives a block away from them. lol! The taste is the same was when I was a child and the price oh my god...priceless! I love it!
No star rating A diner from Westwood, CA Nov 30, 2006
My father's regret was always that his best friend turned on him after he gave him the recipe on how to make the salsa that is poured over the tacos. His best friend was the owner of the first Chico's Tacos at Washington Park and once Chico's Tacos started making a profit, the owner turned against my father thinking that my father was going to ask him for money for the recipe. My father gave him the recipe as a gift because of their friendship. My father died with that heartache. And in my opinion, it has always been the salsa that made Chico's Tacos what it is now and has always been. My father's name was Cesar Leyva.
A diner from Colorado Springs, CO Apr 14, 2006

A diner from Houston.tx Aug 12, 2004
I have lived in Houston for the last 14 years, and have gone back to El Paso many times. I grew up there and always ate at Chicos. It was my grandfathers favorite as well as my own. I would like to bring that same experience to my family in Houston. The Tacos are the best and worth getting shipped to you.
