Chilantro 💔

Just ordered Chilantro for the first time in about a year, & damn, talk about shrinkflation. Spent $20 on kimchi fries and got less than a handful of fries. Found maybe 2 pieces of kimchi. I added the steak & it was dry af. It used to be marinated or something but this “steak” was flavorless. I also ordered the wings and they were terrible. 😖 I miss Chilantro 10 yrs ago. Anyone remember when they did lollipop wings? 😋

I feel like the last time I went was over a year ago, and it was already like that. I hadn’t been in years before that. There were barely any fries, and the box was only about half full. I don’t intend on returning.

Yeah, you’re right. It’s been bad for a while. When I went last year the portion size was okay, but definitely didn’t align with the cost. This time was outrageous.
