Chicali Tacos
About This Spot
Stepping into Chicali Tacos feels like a quiet culinary retreat tucked into a corner of Las Vegas where the pace slows just enough for you to soak in the simple joys of good food and genuine hospitality. The small, unassuming space hums with a welcoming energy that mirrors the warmth of its owner and staff, making it clear this is a spot where locals gather not just to eat, but to share a moment, a smile, maybe even a story.
There’s an ease to the atmosphere here—a laid-back vibe wrapped in the comforting aromas of mesquite-grilled carne asada and freshly made tortillas. The menu is refreshingly straightforward, inviting you to explore classic favorites like perfectly charred carne asada tacos or a richly layered al pastor, each bite layered with fresh cabbage, bright guacamole, and salsa that quietly dances between smoky and tangy. Whether you’re savoring the melt of cheese in a quesadilla or rinsing it down with a cold Mexican Coke or a homemade hibiscus agua fresca, each element feels thoughtfully crafted and sincerely presented.
Chicali Tacos carries a friendly neighborhood rhythm, where the owner’s greeting feels like catching up with an old friend rather than a mere customer interaction. This same attentive spirit extends into their catering service, which has become a trusted choice for local gatherings, bringing the same care you find at the restaurant directly to events. It’s in these shared experiences—the effortless conversations, the obvious pride in the food, and the warm welcomes—that Chicali Tacos quietly establishes itself as more than a place to grab a quick bite. It’s a small community anchor where every taco tells a story and every visit feels a little like coming home.

I saw the sign for Chicali Tacos along serene as I was driving to wally world. I’m a sucker for a taco and the reviews were extremely positive. After my business at Wally World I stopped in for lunch. I made the right decision. I ordered two carne asada a one chicken taco quesadilla style (means with cheese). Absolutely destroyed my mind how good they were. Everything was fresh. The salsas were so good. I recommend you try these tacos or let them cater your next event. Gabriel has earned my business. Now give him a chance to earn yours.

Got my haircut next door with my buddy Alan, right around dinner time. Decided to try this spot out! Walker in and was greeted by the owner Gabriel. Nicest dude ever! Tacos is my thing and I’ve been damn near everywhere. I had asada and al pastor, and it did not disappoint! I could tell the carne came off a charcoal grill. Top 5 asada I’ve had in Vegas. Salsas are BOMB! Nothing worse than having bad salsas. Oh and he offers tortillas de arina which are my fav. Definitely recommend!

We used Chicali Tacos for our company Christmas party on 12/22/2023. From beginning to end = 5 stars!! I reached out through email for a quote for 25 and received an immediate reply. The price was extremely reasonable and communication throughout the booking process was so easy! The day of our event our server, Taco Master Erwing arrived on time for set up. He brought me out to verify that everything I had requested was supplied and began serving promptly at 11:00. He checked to make sure if our employees were on a set time for lunch or if it was a party so he was prepared on the pace he needed to serve our food. The food was good and the service was superb!! We selected the chicken & carne asada and added on the corn in a cup & nachos. I would definitely recommend them anytime to anyone and will keep them in mind for any future parties!! Great work and communication all around! Thank you!!!

These guys run a successful catering operation and recently opened their doors at this location to dine-in clients. We came here today and I gotta say this is the best mesquite carne & pollo asada you can get in Las Vegas. Period. Service was friendly (we were served by the owner, Gabriel). For now, the menu is very simple with either flour or corn tortillas and a selection of chorizo con papas, al pastor, pollo asada (mesquite grilled!), and carne asada (mesquite grilled!). You can add cheese (they call it quesadilla style) and it becomes a taco with melted cheese (yum!). The only thing close to this restaurant in terms of flavors, that I've had, is Backyard Taco in Arizona. The mesquite grilled flavor on the chicken and carne is unforgettable. All the salsas are hand crafted and delicious. This is not your fast food chain Roberto's, this is artisanal food. Ridiculously good, can't wait to come back!

We've hired Chicalis for some events at our home and it's always AMAZING! The food is always so good and thr guys working are always so nice. So excited they opened a little bistro. Came by two times already and the food is great as always. My kids love the food too. I pray they continue to grow

Came here with my family and got 3 tacos: the Beef Chorizo, the Picadillo, and the Al Pastor. They looked and tasted incredible and were bigger than I expected. I didn't get them Quesadilla style but would definitely the next time. The sauces brought to the table were definitely house made and added a ton of flavor. I'd definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a well crafted taco.

Had a very nice experience today at lunch. Food was very fresh tasting. While not a lot of food options, lots of meat choices available. Worth a visit!

We hired Chicali Tacos for my mom’s 60th birthday, and they were absolutely amazing! The food was incredible. Super fresh, flavorful, and a huge hit with all of our guests. The owner was super friendly, professional, and made the whole experience fun and stress-free. He showed up on time, was well-prepared, and kept everything running smoothly. We got so many compliments from friends and family! We would 100% hire them again for any event. Highly recommend if you’re in the LV area!
