Feedback
Guests praise Chiquito's friendly staff, hearty Tex‑Mex dishes and mocktails, though some report occasional inconsistency and variable value between visits.
All Chiquito's provide good tex-mex food and this one lives up to the expected standard. The staff are welcoming and friendly. If you've never been before I'd recommend the sharing platters as you can get a nice variety. Also, try the Mock-tails as they are delicious, in particular the mock-jito.
The experience was not exceptional, but the service was good, and the food was decent. It felt a bit overpriced, especially considering there were no special deals or licenses available. The crispy hiumi bites with jalapeño jam were delightful. The steak fajitas and pulled pork tacos were enjoyable, but they didn't leave a lasting impression.
I visited a charming Mexican restaurant that serves a variety of delicious dishes, including tacos, burritos, chimichangas, fish, chicken, and juicy steak. I had a wonderful evening there with a friend. The staff was very attentive and did their best to ensure everything was served promptly. Overall, the food was excellent!
