Chilango!

One of my favorite new sit down restaurants is Chilango.



The food is very fresh, organic, and with free-ranged meats you can't go wrong! Everything is handmade and fresh that day.


We started with the duck flautas. They were amazingly delicious and very moist! I was very surprised because usually duck can get very greasy or stringy. The flavors were amazing.  A must have if you try this restaurant.  For the main course, my husband had the Filet Mignon tacos and I had the Carnitas.



The tacos were cooked to perfection and full of flavor. To add as a side (Pictured off to the side in the upper LT hand corner) were the picked peppers. SO GOOD! It was mixed with some chiles, carrots, and garlic. I suggest you get these. They were hot and spicy and perfect with everything we ate.

The carnitas were crispy, soft and fresh. FRESH FRESH FRESH! This being a higher end, sit down restaurant I love the fact that everything isn't super salty. I love my mission burritos, but it is nice to have some food that doesn't just lay in your stomach all day.

I suggest you get the 1/2 lbs of carnitas and share them with friends. It was a lot of meat even for my husband and I to share!

They were accompanied by a side of guacamole, picked onions and a small array of salsas. I loved the smokey flavor of one of them. They were sooo good. Must go back for them!

To add, I had their sangria of the day. It was very smooth. Not bitter at all. I was surprised since most sangrias are very hard to drink for me. I only had a glass, but they also serve the sangria in a pitcher.

To end the meal we had FRESHLY MADE CHURROS! Actually you can get the churros with a mexican hot chocolate dippy thingy. But with all the previous food I didn't have room for that.

So if you are coming to the city and want a good sit down restaurant with prices similar to Chows, try Chilango. We will definitely be going back to try their other specials!

Thanks for reading!
