Reviews for Taquería La Chona in Wichita, KS
A little disappointed tonight with my order. I?ve ordered the same thing three times recently and received three very different... things. Photo of two items shows the size of the burrito I?ve gotten 2/3 of the times I?ve ordered - once with rice & beans andonce without and burrito was same size ($3 price difference). Tonight I got the smaller burrito that could barely be called aburrito! More like the size of a soft taco, soggy tortilla. Overall taste was similar but not nearly the value I?ve receivedbefore and I paid the higher price for it. More consistency in what you order and receive would be appreciated! Response toOwner?s Response: I could not respond to the owner?s reply, so hopefully this will do. I understand the difference, but I?veordered both with and without the rice/beans and got the larger burrito both times. The third time I ordered, I got therice/beans expecting the larger burrito I?d received the first time I ordered, but got the small burrito. I thought the $3 pricedifference was for the cost of the rice and beans and didn?t expect the taco-sized burrito. My SO has tried three differentitems off the menu. So far their opinion is the enchiladas are ????, tamales not so much. They have not yet tried the third itembut it smells amazing! Their rice is some of the best I?ve ever tasted! Read more
First time trying. Was pleasantly surprised by interior. Clean modern feal. Had music playing fairly loudly which didn't bother... me as I was alone. Menu is large with various offerings in Spanish with english descriptions. If you are not familiar withMexican food beyond tacos and burritos I would suggest looking at their menu online and researching the dishes first. Will makeordering smoother and lesson yout chance of getting something you don't like. Wait staff was nice and very attentive. Food wasquick, fresh and delicious. Only critique I may have with the food was the chips were room temp and a bit stale like from a bag.One surprise I had was with the bill. I didn't notice but refills aren't complimentary. I had asked to have my iced tea refilledwhen it was about half empty. I was billed $4.58 for 2ea iced teas. I wouldn't expect them to give free refills on drinks likethe frescas but almost $5 for a tea with half a refill seemed a bit much. Rest of the ticket was accurate. Food is a bit priceybut probably on par with current climate. All in all would recommend. Read more
Ordered three entrees and two sides. Got home to discover that one entree was missing. There was no one in the restaurant except... me when my order was being bagged. Tried to call but no one answered. When I returned, the server who took my order ?found? the20 plus minute old quesadilla. A small apology was given, but the whole experience definitely means I won?t be returning.Disappointing as the food is better than most places in the area, but multiple bad service experiences can?t be overlooked.

Feels like I?m in Mexico. Very authentic Mexican restaurant. No margaritas because in real Mexico restaurants it?s an American... drink and not offered. Lots of Mexican beers. Hard and soft street tacos just like on the streets of puerto Vallarta and thegreen chili enchiladas have so much flavor. Salsa mild to gaming hot. Service very fast. Order in stages if you don?t want to berushed. Have a beer and chips then order apps then main. Enjoy. Read more

On par with THE BEST Mexican food I have ever had! I have been to many "Authentic Mexican Restaurants" in Kansas and am... convinced most reviewers don't know what that means after trying highly rated restaurants... that is not true here! Here, thefood is absolutely a dream. This is the only restaurant I will ever go to now in Wichita! Every time I visit this city, I willbe back. Wow! Very affordable, too! Read more
