Taqueria El Chilicuil

We came there around 6 PM when dinner services open and the restaurants in the area (especially down town) get busy. However, the restaurant was a ghost town and the indoor décor was creepy and dark, smelled of stored, raw, frozen, nasty food. When we walked in, we sat down outside since they didn’t even have air conditioning. After 15 minutes, nobody came to our table, even though we were the only ones there. We (me and my friends), came inside to ask why they haven’t come for us, and they said we need to pay first!!!’ Like what?! At that time I guessed they had a problem with people eating and leaving (since the outside area was connected to other seating areas and other restaurants) so we ordered 2 chicken burritos and 3 beef quesadillas, and one nacho. As we we’re walking to our table (after we paid, of course) I noticed a plastic bag on top of the grill with frozen ground beef. When the nachos came, it came in a small plate with sour cream and all other remedies expected such as cheese and guac. The nachos were surprisingly decent, but I mean who could screw up nachos. However, the chips tasted like Doritos and seemed to be microwaved. Next up were the burritos and quesadillas. The quesadillas tasted horrible. Looked like someone opened up a tortilla, had to much beans the nights before, and sharted all over the tortilla and let it sit and crust. After the shit got moldy, he/​she then added a few tomatoes for good measure. The poop grease oozed out at every regretful bite. The even sadder part (I couldn’t believe it could get worse) was that it’s called a QUESAdilla, yet there was no cheese. Seemed like the cook just microwaved everything to be honest. And next up was the detestable burrito. This was beyond awful. First off, they don’t even know how to properly fold a burrito. The outside flaps were open, it looked like a giant used diaper. The second I took a bite, all of the shit came out the back of the burrito. (which foreshadowed the night of food poisoning I was going to have after the meal). I couldn’t finish the burrito, obviously. The chicken was grounded up, who does that? And they put cold, crunchy lettuce and big pieces of cold old tomatoes in a semi hot tortilla with hot condiments inside. Tasted awful. The sauce they put inside taste like 10 year old expired hienz ketchup. Not to mention the horrible stomach pains I got after the meal. And at the end we couldn’t even take the food back because she already took my money, the French person that fails to cook the simplest of Mexican cuisine. And they only take cash, so they obviously have some kind of underground business and do not pay taxes. Not to mention the grotesque tacos, burritos, and quesadillas nailed to the wall as we exited. Overall a terrible experience. Whoever rated it 5 stars were obviously either paid or related to the family, or has no idea what Mexican food is supposed to taste like. Do not come here. Instead, try the many great Italian and French/​Swiss restaurants all around you. Or, if you are on a budget, instead of eating at this restaurant, eat out of trash cans. I can guarantee it would taste fresher, better, and you wouldn’t feel that you got robbed of your dignity. Please, I warn you, do not come here

Nach viel italienischem Essen hatten wir Lust auf etwas scharfes. Und wir wurden hier nicht enttäuscht. Super Burritos hier!

I visited Switzerland in 2006. After a few days of Italian food, I was in need of awesome Mexican food (I’m from San Diego, CA)!! This place was perfect! Food was hearty, spicy and very tasteful to satisfy my Mexican food craving! Tacos, burritos and GREAT guac!

Netter kleiner mexikanischer Imbiss. Auf der Speisekarte stehen Tacos, Burritos, Nachos, Chilli und natürlich mexikanisches Bier. Preise schwanken so zwischen 8 und 15 CHF. Immer gut besucht. Bei schönem Wetter setzt man sich am besten auf die Terrasse
