| - I was hoping Chico Malo was the long awaited answer to authentic Mexican food in Downtown Phoenix, but sadly the wait continues. The food isn't terrible, just mediocre and hilariously over priced. I paid $10 for two small street taco al pastor tacos. They don't come with anything, no rice, no drink, no elote, nothing. The tacos were fine, though the tortillas were a bit dry and the Al Pastor was a bit fatty.
You'd think being in cityscape they'd be catering to lunch time office workers, but they don't seem to be. Getting food for pickup was slow, even though the place was 1/2 empty at 12:30. I asked if they had fountain soda to go, they did not. They have coke in bottles, which is fine, but I assume I'm like most non alcoholics and I don't keep a bottle opener at my desk.
This place is a huge missed opportunity. All told, it's a definite downgrade from the Chloes salad bar that was once housed in this space.
