About Chiquito

¡Hola amigos! Being the UK's biggest and most loved Tex-Mex restaurant, we know a thing or two about good food and drink.

For those who fancy a lighter bite we have a brunch menu and a selection of desserts for your sweet tooth. We offer a gluten free menu too so anyone can enjoy dining out with friends. Our drinks will quench the greatest of thirsts - simply pop in try one of our famous margaritas. After all it’s 5pm somewhere, right? See you soon, or as they say in Mexico, ¡hasta luego!

delicious food, very beautiful place.

User

We had a fantastic meal last night (Saturday). Fabulous food, cocktails and wonderful service by a blond, short haired waitress....didn't get her name I'm afraid but she is a definite asset to the restaurant. We will definitely back.

User

Today, I visited this restau with my partner. I have tried vegetarian food - nachos, veggie chilli, salad etc. Food quality was awesome and we njyed the evening. Staff was very friendly and speedy in service.

User

Only been in this place once before a few years ago.

Got to say, the food was fantastic and service faultless.

User

Omg love this restaurant, food is amazing our waiter gave us top notch service. I am definitely coming again.

I have been coming to this restaurant for at least 10 years with (or without) my kids, the food is tasty and good value but what makes our visits is the staff. They are always so friendly and welcoming, especially Josef and Barbara who are just a credit to the restaurant and take such good care of us.

Cudowne Miejsce.Nasza pierwsza wizyta ale nie ostatnia.Spotkaliśmy się z bardzo przyjemna obsługa pani.Katarzyna i drugi Kelner cudownie.Wszystkim gorąco polecamy

Back to chiquito last night after a long time. So reassuring nothing changes, made as welcome as if I'd been in yesterday and the food was great, loving the cranberry and chorizo nachos :)

User

We wanted to try something new, the waitress was fantastic as was the restaurant, the only disappointment was the food, I ordered an enchilada, volcano hot but there was no heat to it a real shame....

User

We ordered the the food including steak. Five minutes later the food was ready and served. It tasted alright, but I had a feeling that the food was already cooked and was just shoved in the microwave before serving. On the plus side the place was clean and well presented. It was my first time to go there but will never rush to go back again.

User

Nice place. Food was nice. Only thing was we waited ages for our drinks

User

We decided to try something different considering there was so many to choose from at the Cambridge leisure park. Got greeted by a lady who sat us to a table, give us ten mins and took our drink and food order. Which was with us within 40 minutes at the most which we was happy about! We ordered chicken and ribs meal and cod fingers and chips. The chicken and ribs tasted of fish and just didn't taste great at all considering it cost me £18, I'm not one to complain although on this occasion I should of done. Anyway we asked for the bill and was told the lady would be with us shortly.... 20 minutes later still waiting!! Asked a gentleman who seemed to be walking around doing bills... he came within 10 minutes with the bill and then waited another 10 minutes for him to get the card reader! So 40 minutes altogether just to pay and leave which made us late for the car park so instead of paying £6 for the car park, we had to pay £13!!! All because they were messing about with our bill... So tempted to just walk out of the restaurant wasn't happy at all. :( won't be returning there again such a shame!

User

Was presented with desert before even had the main meal. Asked for desert and was not given desert but instead someone elses bill! After messing me around 3 times the waiter finally realised he has messed up but i am now one unhappy customer, its a shame as the food was quite good.... When it eventually turned up

User

So we’ve just spent over 2 hours, mostly waiting, but sometimes eating/drinking here. We waited around an hour for our main courses to arrive and then about 40 mins after we ordered our desserts.



I asked for my food to come without sour cream, but it was clear they’d remembered AFTER they’d assembled the chimichanga because there were white specks of sour cream all over the coriander on top, and there was some hidden underneath the guacamole. Luckily I wasn’t allergic and was able to cover it in hot sauce so it tasted okay.



In addition to this, the “banana stuffed with brownie” was basically just a hot banana with some toffee sauce and ice cream because literally ALL of the “brownie” on top fit in the teaspoon they gave me to eat it with.



The only reason it wasn’t a ‘1* hated it’ review is because the food we got did taste good, despite being a little cold. I keep getting suckered in to eating here by money off vouchers and amazing onion rings, but I experience the same service each time. Shame on me.

User

Should be a zero!! Long wait for drinks. Dinner cold. All ate at different times! Was a special occasion told manager (sorry) but told him am not paying!! So we left!! Will never be back and avoid at all costs!!!

User

Awful service, 45 min wait between finishing dinner and getting a drink then another 30 mins between asking for bill and actually getting it. Spent more time waiting than eating or drinking, utter shite
