Sandwiches are delicious. They accept credit cards, which is nice for a small place. Everything tastes good, and fairly fresh. Parking is problematic.
This place would get 5 stars instead of 4, but it is located in Redwood City's ghetto and I am scared to park my car there at night. I only go to La Casita Chilanga during the day, because at night the area is way too dangerous. There is a lot of gang activity, drugs, prostitution, etc. If you go when the sun is up, it's fine, but at night I wouldn't risk it.
La comida excelente, el ambiente excepcional, las fotos inolvidables.....y el servicio impresionante, esto es LA CASITA CHILANGA.
PS: mis favoritas, las quesadillas de Huitlacoche.
unusual tasty mexican joint: the Mexico city style tortas (mexican toasted sandwiches) really shine. They also have a dish called alambres which is pretty much cut up carne asada with melted cheese served with tortillas (easily serves two) - simple yet quite good!
