Armando travels to Chihuahua once a year to bring back 500 pounds of the Chile Arbol, ensuring that the flavors and consistency of his food remain true to their origins. This dedication to authenticity is evident in every dish served at Tacos Chiwas.
Guest Daniel Laufer raves about his experience at Tacos Chiwas: "The atmosphere is energetic, the restaurant itself is kind of cool. They have neon signs in the back and the menus are hand painted on the wall," Laufer said. "I always get the barbacoa taco, that’s my favorite."
Guest Sylvia Cook enjoyed the elote corn. "It was fantastic. You could taste the little hint of lime and then you’ve got the mayonnaise, and then they charred the corn."
Guest Mark Lewis ordered the lengua. "Usually if you do it wrong, the tongue is really chewy, but this was exactly made to melt in your mouth," Lewis said.
With several locations around town, Tacos Chiwas is a popular spot for locals and visitors alike. The casual and welcoming atmosphere, combined with the delicious food and friendly service, make it a must-visit destination for anyone looking for a taste of real Mexican cuisine in Phoenix.
