The service was a bit slow; the scallops came out 15 minutes after we had received the rest of the pictured items but everything tasted absolutely amazing. The carne asada was cooked perfectly. Very impressed with the plating as well!
Highly recommend if you want to have a fun brunch because they have a DJ playing upbeat and lively Latin music!

Chico Malo has a fantastic urban-industrial vibe, with a modern Mexican menu that features everything from updated classics to new twists and craft cocktails. Service was top-notch, and the relleno and shrimp de macha were delicious. Fun, stylish spot to unwind after a ballgame or escape the heat for a cool happy hour!

Saw this place on the news and immediately my wife and I decided we needed to try it.
We were not disappointed!
Our server was friendly and attentive. The food was brought out promptly and was amazing.
My wife loves flan and I love churros so instead of splitting dessert like we do when we are full (and we were full) we each ordered dessert and neither one of us regretted that choice.

The best guacamole in Phoenix. It was so tasty and creamy that I was instantly in love. The rest of the dishes we ordered were delicious. Great atmosphere with a diverse crowd of people. Perfect spot

So I walked into this place thinking it was going to be another taco place, but was I wrong I ordered the cauliflower steak, the achiote brick chicken and a Chile relleno. The taste of the food was super delicious ,I felt transported to Guadalajara and reminded me of my kid yrs. Simply fabulous I even ended up asking my waitress where the head chef was from. She said he was from Gdl. Sir I tip my hat to you ????. The only thing uh oh here it comes, the only thing I didn't I didn't agree with was the hibiscus lemonade but I'll see past that here are some pictures of what I ordered thank you for the excellent meal. Additional note the corn tortillas have a nice presentation but it was missing a, je ne sais quoi. The music, great decoration very nice lighting and seating comfortable the food doest take a while for it to be brought well worth the wait.

The French toast and Tomahawk steak were amazing!!. The presentation. The atmosphere. The vibe. They were everything!! Just as good as everything looked it tadted 100 timed better. DEFINITELY get extra cream and berries on the toast to enhance your meal. It was warmer than normal inside since it was 7 of us were were given the option to rat at the lounge area up front since there was no available seating. We chose outside as it was actually cooler there. There is also a bottomless mimosa option!!

Enjoyed a relaxing evening at Chico Malo and had a great time. We enjoyed every facet of the meal from the Burrata Mole through to the Coconut Flan dessert. Every meal felt very intentionally crafted, packed full of flavor combination ls that pair excellently, and offer something new for the senses. Even at it’s busiest, service was good, friendly and outside seating was also comfortable.

Had the pozole and it was very good! The chips and salsa roja was great as well. Servers were very attentive and refilled my water as soon as it was low. Lots of seating and definitely a great place to grab a few drinks.

We enjoyed our experience at Chico Malo. The food was extremely tasty! My husband and I both really enjoyed our main dishes! Kids menu was kind of bare but we made it work…simple and easy cuisine for the kiddos. Our little one and a half year old really loved the jams they were playing throughout the night (as seen, him dancing in the last pic). Lol. There are two reasons I am giving this one less star…first reason: is they did not have any kids high chairs so we had to put our son in a regular chair (it turned out to be okay but we constantly had to tell him to sit down so he wouldn’t fall back); second reason: my husband wanted to do one of the tequila flights but each one he asked about they were out of so he settled on just a tequila on the rocks. Regardless this was a very fun atmosphere…I think if they had the same music they were playing…going to happy hour would be a good time!!
