believe the hype. ignore all the negative reviews. if you are like me, you scroll through these reviews to read, specifically, the bad ones. the negative reviews a quite mind-boggling. thefoodhere is exceptional. the ingredients are fresh. nothing comes out of a can. they do not use lard.
if you love chimi's, let me put it to you like this. i don't ever eat in at restaurants. i just prefer eating at home. so, as usual, i order the chimi to go. i have about 10 miles to drive between cactus flower and my house. if you ever frequent 98 you know the traffic is always bad. it takes me 20 minutes to get home, another 5 to sit and eat. the chimi is still crispy. the interior still melty. outstanding.
if you are visiting, eat here. if you are a local, eat here. don't think about it, just do it. the service is friendly. thefoodcomes out quick. an ideal experience.
