Chéen-Huaye

Absolute win! From the impeccable service to the tasteful decor to the amazing food, this place is so worth the eternal drive from Kendall. Situated in a strip mall off of Biscayne, this tiny spot offers authentic, fresh, made to order Southern Mexican dishes. Don't come over here expecting burritos and nachos, no señor, this place is the real deal.


We started with the sopa de aguacate and the sopa de tortilla. The aguacate soup was brothy and very light with fresh avocado, tomatoes, and shredded chicken.





The tortilla was creamy tomato based with strips of tortilla, delicious chunks of Mexican cheese, avocado and cream. The tortilla was our favorite.






Next up, the Salbutes which are corn tortillas topped with cochinita pibil (baby pig, so wrong and so sad) with lettuce, pickled onions and cucumbers.


Loved the pork, it was tender and flavorful, and the tortilla was awesome. Crispy but soft inside, loved it.




We shared tacos al pastor which we loved - the pork was sweet and spicy and the pineapple added the perfect sweetness.


This came with a side of refried beans which were ultra creamy and delicious, and some tasty guacamole. Forgot to mention they give you lots of yummy chips and freshly made salsa as soon as you sit, this was a plus.



Lastly and most importantly, we sealed the deal with their banana-cheesecake chimichangas.


Seriously one of the best desserts I've had. Picture the crispest egg roll stuffed with the sweetest, ripest bananas and creamy chunks of cheesecake... But wait, there's more.... with Nutella. Dusted with cinnamon sugar. And a side of dulce de leche ice cream. The bomb.

Out server was super attentive, sweet, and made great recommendations. The food came out super fast and portions were adequate. We will definitely be back.
