This restaurant was a pleasant sirprise! After being on a drivi g trip for a few days now it was a welcome change to NOT eat fast food. I ordered the create your own combo. So every Mexican restaurant that I have ever been to I have to order the chile rellenos and an enchilada. There chile relleno is inmy all time top 3! It was amazing. They covered my enchiladas and relleno with their homemade red chile. There red and green chile is outstanding. Their homemade chips and salsa were also pretty impressive. They don't have a "traditional" sit at bar but you can get beer, wine and margaritas. I had 2 yummy margaritas! I wish I lived here so I could come back and try the rest of the menu. This is a great stop off the I-10
I love Chilitos Restaurant. I like both locations. I was at valleys location today. Ordered a plate of gorditas with salsa and tortilla chips on the side to go.
Gorditas were stuffed with plenty of meat. Absolutely the best each and every single time. The salsa is my hands down favorite so far here in Las Cruces.
I have gone dozens of times. Can't wait to get a nice margarita next time.
The young man that took my order at valley July 8, 2022 in the afternoon was a delight. So friendly and treated us well. Great job. Always will be back for more deliciousness. Keep it up.
First time there I ask if potatoes were cooked in the ground beef for tacos, because of my allergy, they said yes, and looked sad for me. I asked if they could cook some without potatoes for a taco plate, and they said yes with smiles !! Beautiful, delicious tacos with lots of cheese, right amount of lettuce and tomato, had to ask for chopped onion, no problem, no extra charge for special cooked beef or onions. Excellent salsa !! Iced tea w/lemon excellent. Best time I ever had anywhere.
Excellent authentic Mexican food in Las Cruces. Highly recommend the chicken flautas. Some of the best I have had in such a long time.
I happened upon this cozy little place many years ago during a cross country trip, and I have to agree with many others that the salsa is fantastic! I came back through again on another long journey and tried to stop in, but it had just closed, and I was so sad because all I could think about was that salsa. Fortunately, the salsa is available to order online. Another UPDATE - We were able to go back again, September 2021, and the food was even better than I remember, and they have expanded! The place is huge compared to the tiny little joint it was when I first discovered it. So glad they are doing well, especially through the pandemic. Oh, and I bought three jars of salsa to take with me.
Nice restaurant, food was good, service was quick. Very good overall.
Excellent food and exceptional service! Great atmosphere, and we enjoyed a nice meal with our two kiddos. Definitely will go again on our next trip to Las Cruces.
