🌮 WE’RE HIRING! 🌵
At Chilangos, we believe we’re in the business of people just as much as we’re in the business of great food. We’re looking for someone special to join our team and help create an experience our customers can’t wait to come back to.

✨ Loves connecting with people.
✨ Makes others feel genuinely welcomed and valued.
✨ Is confident serving customers and working the till.
✨ Enjoys creating a fun, friendly atmosphere.
✨ Has a creative eye for social media and capturing everyday moments.
✨ Takes initiative, works well in a team, and is dependable.
✨ Wants to be part of growing a business, not just filling a position.

This role is about so much more than taking orders. You’ll be helping us build relationships with our customers, creating memorable experiences, and making Chilangos feel like a place where everyone belongs.
If you’re passionate about hospitality, love working with people, and want to be part of a close-knit team, we’d love to hear from you!

🔥 WARNING: This is not your average Chimichangas … 🔥
Meet the Loaded Chimichanga – the newest star of our Winter Menu! 🌯❄️
Golden. Crispy. Loaded.
We take a flour tortilla, stuff it with your choice of El Chapo Chicken, Mexican Mince or our Bean & Veg Mix, fry it until perfectly golden, then load it up with fresh guacamole, sour cream, salsa, crunchy slaw and a side of our signature Mexican sauce.
It’s crispy on the outside, packed with flavour on the inside, and exactly what winter ordered. 🤤🔥
🚚 Find us at Steynsrust
🕛 Tuesday – Saturday | 12:00–20:00
No fuss.
Just seriously good Mexican food served from your favourite food truck.
