The new restaurant will be mostly a carryout restaurant with a limited menu of chilaquiles, tacos, burritos, nachos and piratas. It has a “build your own” type of feel to it as you can customize your order and also have items ordered in a bowl.
Given the name of the restaurant, I ordered the chilaquiles with pork and an egg on top. I also had (I forget exactly but I think) a cucumber lime agua fresca.
If you’ve never had chilaquiles, it’s a traditional Mexican dish with crispy corn tortillas, often times lightly fried, and simmered in a sauce. The chips sometimes are tossed in the sauce until they soften slightly, then covered with proteins and garnishes.
The chips in my chilaquiles had a harder and crunchier texture than most chilaquiles I’ve had at other restaurants in town so I’m not sure how they were prepared here. I know that Chilaquiles Tacos and More does not have a kitchen so the food is actually prepared as Molino’s Cuisine.
I would have liked my chips to be a bit softer for this dish but everything else in it was fine with the pork and especially the egg on top which made a big difference.
Final thoughts on Chilaquiles Tacos and More:
For $11.99, I felt like I got my money’s worth for the food.
The kicker for me is I wasn’t really moved by the food. It was good but at the same time, it didn’t give me that yearning like I just had to return soon.
Molino’s Cuisine has a ton of fans and I, too, enjoy the food. It’s probably not fair to compare the two restaurants as its two different concepts. But I feel as though, I would have been better off driving the less than two miles to go to Molino’s instead.
