Chapin - Princeton

Got a chance to finally eat here while on an outing with an acquaintance in town. I passed it many times but never actually ate here. Great local spot that's very popular with people I know in this neighborhood. Alway hopping with locals.

Reasonably priced simple authentic meals. I love this place, been eating here for years. Very cheap compared to the rest of Princeton; though be prepared to take out if squeezing between strangers at a bar against the wall doesn't appeal to you. They/he/she can only make a subset of the things on the menu at any given point in time, but those dishes are getting all their attention and are delicious.

The restaurant was authentic and reasonably priced. The food was good, but nothing over the top. You can get your typical Latin American lunch consisting of meat, rice, beans, and tortillas. Fortunately I had a Spanish speaker with me. Otherwise it would have been difficult to communicate. This is where the local Latinos go. There are a handful of stools and limited counter space so don't go with a large group unless you plan on taking your food to go. Definitely try the homemade horchata.

This place is great. It's a small restaurant, not a lot of room. The food is fantastic for the price, and the tortillas are pretty authentic Guatemalan tortillas. I'm glad this place is in Princeton.

Excellent! Worth a quick walk for lower prices, bigger portions (huge tacos! , better food, the house spicy salsa, and the atol de elote (was my first time trying it, a real treat! .
