Who in their right mind would ever give this place more than 1 or 2 stars? I’ve lived in AZ for 30+ years and have experienced all types of Mexican food, but this was hands down the worst. I needed a quick bite for dinner and happened to be driving by when I saw Papa Chevo’s. The chicken taquitos where flavorless, cold in the middle, and slobbered with runny guacamole. The shredded beef tacos smelled like piss and tasted even worse. The chips were stale and the salsa was bad. The only thing worth eating was the rice. My wife and I both ended up sick to our stomachs, but lucky for her I was the only one who actually vomited. Because of this, I will be filing a complaint with the county Environmental Health division. But seriously, what is wrong with some of the people reviewing this place claiming«Papa chevos is my favorite Mexican»? Are you kidding me? Are these reviews real? I know this is fast food, but it’s the bottom of the bottom tier in my opinion. Please, go try some real Mexican food instead of this deep fried garbage.

I’ve been eating here for over 5 – 6 years now. I would compare this place to like filibertos or amados in terms of menu offering only difference is these guys do it much better in terms of quality of the food. Fresh tortilla the meats are seasoned perfectly and the HOT sauce is actually HOT not like the other places I mention where you can tell those sauces are watered down and taste like nothing. Only reason why I gave it a 4 star is the size of the burrito is about half the size of the other place I mention. So if your looking to get full off of one burrito this isn’t the place but if your looking for great quality taste and freshness then come here! Just order an extra burrito totally worth it! If I was given the ultimatum to pick one of the other fast food Mexican I would definitely choose Papa Chevos aka Los Favoritos!

Not good. I don’t get the hype of this place. Small and dry burritos. Try Señor Taco or Elmers all within a short distance and much much better

Papa chevos is my favorite fast Mexican food place in az. Way better than filibertos and any other similar place I’ve tried. So fast and inexpensive and filling. Love this place

Otherwise known as Los Favoritos! They are still owned by the same people and the menu hasn’t changed. We go here pretty often because they have yummy food at a good price. My personal favorite are the tacos with green sauce. The cashier is always friendly and happy to help. The interior is clean with traditional Mexican decorations. It is located in the Albertson’s parking lot. I would definitely recommend this place if you’re looking for quick, cheap Mexican food!

Steak tacos had plenty of(what appeared to be cheap quality) meat, but absolutely NO flavor at all. I shouldn’t have to dump a bunch of sauce on my food to make it edible! Same thing for the rice. $ 8.50 for 2 tacos and a small container of rice was overpriced. No thanks, I will not be back. Only reason I’m giving 2 stars is the gal working the counter was nice and helpful.

The very nice lady that is always working is the reason I come back to this place. We always come in super late but she always has a smile on her face from when we walk in that door to when we walk out. Plus the food helps

My boyfriend absolutely loves this place. He gets a breakfast burrito all the time so I figured I’d try it out for«Taco Tuesday». I got two chicken tacos with a side of rice and beans. It was just EH for me. Maybe my expectations were too high but I didn’t think it was all that.

This is basically a Los Fav’s which means you can get those amazing breakfast burritos! Tastes exactly the same — great service!

Quick, easy, and extremely friendly staff. The portion size for the price is great. I would recommend to many for a fast casual or take out restaurant.

While the people are very friendly, I believe the quality just keeps going down. I had a truly awful chicken taco here last week. And this week, I tried the nachos-well, that was a mistake. I can’t believe they don’t even bother melting the cheese for the nachos– they just dump shredded cheese on top. This place is off my list.

Papa Chevo’s Taco Shop is my go to Mexican food joint anytime I’m in this area of Chandler. If you haven’t been here before you should try their burritos! The bacon breakfast burrito and the enchilada style bean and cheese burrito are my personal favorites.

This place is bomb! I love their bean and rice burrito(I get rice and sour cream put in mine). Their chili relleno is so good! the beef tacos! I look forward to trying their breakfast burrito soon! The girl that takes your order is always smiling and very welcoming! Good spot for sure!

Please do not listen to @angela C. If you think the food or menu or anything has changed, you may not be very advanced mentally. This place is the spot if you want a good burrito!

I usually come here on Fridays. They have a good Veggie Burrito. Rice and Guacamole are just right. I want to try their breakfast burritos one day. Will let my Unilocal family know how it is when I try it. Prices are good for the portions. Under $ 5 for the Veggie Burrito.

When Los Favoritos changed to Papa Chevo’s they said the menu would remain the same. However, I have noticed the quality and quantity of food decrease over the past few months, but today was the most drastic. The breakfast burritos are more tortilla than filling and they increased the prices. So, you are paying more for less burrito. Sigh. This used to be my favorite breakfast burrito place. The search for a new place begins now…

Same staff and food as when it was Los Favs. This place is ok when your craving a quick fix or after a night drinking. My biggest complaint is the food seems to always have to much salt. Lately I’ll only order a sausage breakfast burrito as the bacon burrito is like eating salt rocks. Staff is always super friendly and the place is clean. Although if you come during cleaning I suggest take out as the bleach smell can be overwhelming.

Pretty much the same as when it was Los Favs. The night I went in though they had been cleaning, and the whole place smelled like bleach. Really not very appetizing. The beef taco was just how I like it, and the bean burrito was good as well. I was getting take out, so I’m glad I didn’t have to stay and smell the crazy amount of bleach in the air!

Papa Chevo’s was a quick stop from an outing night for me. Though I was still coherent so no excuses on my part. Place was dead, but being the night was still young I’m sure this place can get overwhelmed. I ordered the beef Sopes with rice and beans. Overall, nothing to special in my Mexican food repertoire. I thought it was pretty simplistic and what I would expect; Fried corn tortilla, topped with refried beans, lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream, and cheddar cheese. In the end, I thought it was nothing out of the box, but something I can ingest if I was really hungry. — Enjoy!

This business has not closed. A few months ago the name changed to Papa Chevo’s, but everything else is exactly the same. I tried to update it with Unilocal HQ a month or so ago, and they said No mas. Then I uploaded some pics so hopefully it will get corrected. It is not closed as Kirk R. mentioned in his review update. I got some tasty enchiladas there this afternoon.
