Chilango takes its name from the Spanish term for someone from El Distrito Federal, Mexico City, a nod meant to set the food apart from a typical taco joint. The Little Italy space is built for quick service, with meals turned around fast rather than a long sit-down experience.
Fish tacos, burritos, and Mexican street corn are the dishes regulars mention most. The room has built a reputation for generous portions and reasonable prices, with a welcoming, come-as-you-are feel. Chilango also runs a second location in Lincoln Park.
