Crema's Take

Despite some operational inconsistencies, Chikis captures hearts with genuine hospitality and authentic Mexican-inspired food, from perfectly seasoned tripe tacos to fresh house-made chips with multiple salsas. The owners' personal warmth and willingness to accommodate guests shine through in reviews, whether you're catching them at their food truck location or their brick-and-mortar spot, making it a charming neighborhood gem worth seeking out.

I ordered $30 worth of food for pickup, I went to the restaurant and it was closed, No one was inside at all, and all the lights were shut off Plus the phone number listed for them is disconnected. Now I have to wait at least 5 business days to get a refund through Grubhub. You should not be allowed to order for pickup when the restaurant isn't even open. Absolutely horrible. 11/12/25: decided to give them another try. I ordered a torta and 3 tacos for pickup thriving the door dash app that said it opens at 5p even though Google says 4p. I ordered after 5p and when I walked there, AGAIN it was closed, with a closed sign and the lights off. How are people posting good reviews when I drive by this place almost every day and it's never open

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We stopped in for drinks and tacos and had such a great experience! The tripe taco was seasoned perfectly—full of flavor and cooked just right. The drinks were amazing, refreshing, and paired so well with the food. The atmosphere was welcoming, and the service made us feel right at home. We’ll definitely be coming back soon!

Bumped into this cute little food truck at the Walmart in Niles. I got steak tacos and a Jarritos. The food was delicious, authentic and the owner was very accommodating and kind. Be on the lookout for their next stop so you can enjoy a great meal!

Newly opened. Great hospitality, owners greeted us when we came in. Clean with pretty light fixtures. Fresh chips and (3)sauces. Ordered Chiles Rellenos con Queso (poblano pepper stuffed with cheese) and Tostada. So worth the wait, everything tastes like it was made with love. Quiet at the table. Lol Reasonably priced. Be back Thanks

Great Pizza! I have been ordering delivery from Chickis for several months now. I love their pizza - and they have so many other items on the menu (Rib Tips, Chicken Wings, Pasta). In my opinion, one of the best places in Rogers Park! P.S. The owner looks like Ron Jeremy ;-)
