We finally checked out Chika, we were impressed!! Stop waiting in line at Yardhouse (yardhouse is terrible service) and go Nextdoor to Chika get an amazingly crafted cocktail they have a fantastic selection of tequilas! We picked up chicken taquitos and a few Chika-Rita’s (picture of menu and drink). Taquitos sauces, exterior crunch, and developed chicken flavors were impressive! Had them open the Casa Dragones bottle and tried a half shot – Wow that was a Tasty Tequila with no bite and smooth finish! Looking forward to heading back soon, see you there!

I like the guacamole and green salsa here a lot. The shrimp was quite spicy but tasted good. Chicken sandwich was also not bad but nothing crazy. Fries were good. Sister liked the pork belly tacos but not her rice bowl. Next time I’d probably just get the guac and salsa again and maybe try something new like the rotisserie chicken. The dessert was okay, we got the coconut flan.

Fried chicken and Mexican fusion place just off santana row by valley fair. We got here around noon and it was relatively empty but got packed as we were about to leave. Service was nice and the place is cozy but well decorated.

The best part are the drinks. Their spin on the old fashioned, the mezcal drink with campari, basically almost all of them are interesting and intricately crafted. 20% off during happy hour, along with all the food items except nachos. The food is decent and the service is attentive/fast.

1st timer…the place is really cute, servers & bartenders are nice. Great spot for game watching, casual date or before clubbing. We ordered the Chika plate, fries, wings(they were just ok & cold) & chilpachole. Will probably order the nachos next time I go. Check it out

My boyfriend likes Roosters and I like pineapples and this place was perfect! He got the burrito & I had the Impossible Burger . The burger was really good…would have liked a different side tho I didn’t try the burrito I was to busy was the pineapple drink & burger. The drink was sweet but refreshing…& it creeps

This has just become one of our favorite restaurants in San Jose. Highly recommended. We visited on a busy Sunday at 12pm and were impressed. Good food, great drinks, safe seating during COVID, friendly server (but hostess was average). Recommend the margaritas and the chicken based selections. They offer other meats as well.

The word for this place is flavor. Layers of flavors in their food. Taste like home. Is fresh. Salsas are amazing. The guacamole is really good portion and delicious. The chicken is the star. All you ask here is good. Drinks are good too. Good margaritas !! The chicken sandwich is lovely.
