Chimina Changa - Barnet

We wanted to have a simple Mexican lunch so went to Chimichanga on Monday around 12pm. We were the first and the only customers in the restaurant at that time. The service was really bad as we had to go and look for a waiter ourselves when we wanted to order drinks, and later, when we were ready to order food. I felt like we were interrupting their personal conversation as staff members were not interested about the service at all. We decided to start with grilled chorizo halloumi, nachos with chicken and chicken taquitos. After food was delivered to our table waitress did not ask if we wanted another drink, although our glasses were empty and she just walked away. So after having starters we decided to leave and have main dishes and desserts somewhere else. The food quality was average and drinks took long time to arrive. That was the last time we visited this place, would not recommend, at least not the one that is located in Leisure Park.

Booked a table for a party of 20 plus to celebrate a 18th Birthday. We arrived at the stipulated time however the table was not ready. 15 minutes later we were told our table was ready however there was not sufficient places available. When she came to take our order she read a list of about 6 dishes that were on the menu but we're not available! What made it even worse was that we were all vegetarians 5 of the 6 dishes were vegetarian options! Starters were served but not enough plates to go around, we were basically told there no more plates available from the plates we were given a lot of them were dirty. I was absolutely gob smacked how can a restaurant run out of plates? When we ordered 5 bottles of coke I was told your lucky as this is the only glass we have so not only did they not have plates they didn't have glasses either. The food was of poor quality the service atrocious. The waitress was rude flippant when questioned about the lack of clean plates glasses. We had taken in our own cakes which we left with the staff when we arrived they had just left it out rather than keeping it in the fridge or cool place as the writing on the cake had melted. When we asked for some plates for the cake half the plates had to be returned as they were dirty! We went there to celebrate a special birthday were left totally disappointed. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone

ABIGAIL AND JOSH,made my chimichanga experience.Josh relatively new,but showing will and enthusiasm,Abigail was so polite,professional,knowledgeable that I thought she was manager,unfortunately she weren’t,I questioned the lunch time menu,between josh and Abigail they were able to answer all of my enquiries...EXCELLENT...The rice was like bullets,but mix it up in the sauce that the meat came in all turned out ok..food is,good. Service from Josh and Abigail,excellent!

Never met ruder staff in my life. Extremely slow as well. They fetched the wrong food and they even got upset because we made them notice that. The cocktails were really poor and far from the original recipe. When I said that the margarita was something different they replied that that's the way they do it. More than enough for leaving without waiting who knows how longer to get some food.

Service friendly and fast but my food was not good, very little chicken and did not taste appetising sizzling dishes on next table looked much better left without eating mine
