Chiquito in Suffolk Coastal

George and Sam served us last night, they were brilliant, attentive, professional, friendly and made the whole experience fun. Sadly this restaurant is closing down this weekend to make way for a new development. We wish all the team well.

Wow! I visited Chiquito on Saturday with my family, having been to a few Chiquito restaurants before I thought I knew what to expect, a decent experience with decent food. How wrong I was! Chiquito at Ipswich is on another level and in my families' experience although food was very good itself the service from Janice was a pure masterclass in how to deliver a unique personal service with the perfect balance of being attentive and accommodating whilst not being intrusive. We enjoyed all our food and I particularly enjoyed my chicken burrito! We shall certainly be back!

We had a fantastic lunch here today, Janice went above and beyond to cater for our requirements she made the experience that bit more special...

I went to Chiquito with my family and had a wonderful experience. Our server Janice was so attentive and nothing was too much trouble. The Food was excellent, would definitely go back again even more if Janice is there as she a real asset to Chiquito

Nice food but extremely slow service. Unfortunately because they have their on sections. Other staff don't came over to clear and take orders. So u r left with dirty plates on the table till someone comes over. Sadly it wasn't busy tonight but still slow.

Absolutely gorgeous food as usual... served by Sam who was brilliant. A fab asset to the team, brilliant service , well done Sam. And thankyou !

We visited for my daughter in law’s birthday and we were very lucky to have Sam as our server/waiter again. He made the visit wonderful with his friendly nature and great sense of humour. The whole team made the evening special as the chef had made our shop bought birthday cake look amazing with his decorative touches and the whole team sang Happy Birthday!! Thank you again for a great time.

I came here with my friend for lunch and we had an amazing time. our server ‘Sam’ was an absolute gem, really friendly, attentive and engaging. Fantastic waiter! We had a coupon for the garlic corn bread and added cheese- amazing I had the panko prawn tacos from the summer menu as well as the brownie dessert tacos - these were unbelievable

We had a very good overall dining experience. Everyone enjoyed their food and Sam provided us with an exceptional service :)

Exceptionally poor food quality, the food was very mediocre and nothing like a mexican restaurant that serves freshly cooked dishes. The meal was cold. This was mentioned to the staff who promptly removed the meal and provided another one, this time it was hot hot but no taste and looked like dogs dinner. Presentation was awful and the waitress said it probably had sat on the pass to long hence why it was cold. we noticed all the food was left on the pass for some time before being served. When we asked why it was like this they stated that their kitchen was backed up, yet the restaurant was near empty. The following day I had diarrhoea and my wife felt sick. I would leave zero stars if I could. Please dont waste your money.

Delicious food and suh amazing service from Janice at Ipswich Chiquito, we will definitely come back!

Don’t usually leave reviews - but I had to for the fantastic service we received from Janice!! Amazing, friendly and attentive. Will be going back if we know a Janice is on.

Our food and service was impeccable, our waiter Sam made our meal extra special with his attentive and humorous manner throughout.

Very quick service. Our waiter Sam was friendly, cheerful and attentive. Food was lovely and quick. Restaurants had a nice atmosphere and wasn't to loud.

Delicious tasty food and lovely atmosphere as always. However this visit was made 10 times better by our server Sam, who had a brilliant upbeat attitude during the service. He also ran out after us as we had forgotten a pair of sunglasses at the table. Teal above and beyond service

(5/5) - I had the pleasure of dining at Chiquito’s this evening, and i must say, it was an extraordinary experience that left me so impressed. What truly impressed me was the fantastic and attentive customer service of Janice, which was 5*. They anticipated my...

Dropped in for lunch today , never been before and our server was Janice. Janice was nothing short of absolutely delightful! Nothing was too much trouble, what a lovely lady, ill definitely bring the kids back.

Stopped in without a reservation. We were looked after by Sam who was friendly and helpful with everyone, and a pleasure to talk too. The food was nice, and service speedy, which was great as we were limited on time.

First time I’m been here in years and I have to say I don’t know why I don’t go more often. All the staff where very good and all took really good care of us. Sam was brilliant and stood out the most though. The...

This spot is great for some good fun food. I had the Fajita salad bowl, where you can eat the bowl too… great flavours and a great place for my cousin. Sam was a great host and we will defiantly be coming back, he noticed...

Great food as always. Our waiter was called Sam. Sam’s service was second to none. He interacted with us and was very friendly and polite, with nothing too much bother. Hope Sam gets some recognition.

Had a beautiful meal with desserts and cocktails, everything was delicious and the service was fantastic. Sam is new to the team and did an amazing job with our orders, nothing was too much trouble for him and he made our visit very enjoyable. Thank...

Came here for a birthday meal. Been served by Sam. He overheard us talking about today is my birthday and at the end we were surprised with stuff coming out with brownie cake with candle singing Happy birthday 🎂. Such a nice gesture! By the...

Great evening, first time we’ve been and will return. Food was really good and the waitress was lovely and helpful. Nice to try somewhere different and be impressed!

We had a great server, he made us feel really welcome. The food was good. Hubby enjoyed his treat. Would definitely come back.

I'm not surprised to see Granit's name mentioned in reviews here - this guy is a brilliant example of how to make people feel valued in a restaurant. His attention, enthusiasm and personal touch are a rare thing nowadays and we really enjoyed our visit....

Last night was the first time me and my partner had visited the Ipswich Chiquito's and we would definitely return. Really nice atmosphere and food. Big shout out to our waitress Janice too - Absolutely brilliant and made the experience even better. A lovely, friendly...

15/10/22 The food at Chiquitos was amazing. But the service I received from my waiter, Granit, was out of this world. He went above and beyond for me and my family and made our experience there one we will always remember. Always had a smile...

The service couldn’t be faulted. Ordered a couple of Fajitas halloumi and chicken, both were presented with almost raw onions. Yes, we should of sent them back to the kitchen, but we were so hungry we just eat what was edible. The desert was tasty,...

Me and my partner come to Chiquitos regularly and ALWAYS get good food but most importantly we always look forward to seeing Janice and her smile and cheeriness. Exactly what you want from a restaurant is to remember your service. Even brought out a brownie...

We were served by Granit who was so friendly and helpful. Lovely food and service, can’t wait to come back

Simple Mexican menu which offered decent portions at a reasonable price. The service was excellent with Janice in particular going out of her way to look after us... kids even left with a hat each :)

Came for our anniversary meal. Had Janice as our waitress and we have never had a nicer waiter. Amazing service from her. So bubbly and kept checking in on us. Every restaurant deserves a waitress like her!

The meal was extremely enjoyable for our party of five and even though we asked for various alterations to the dishes, our server Janice was patient and friendly. She was attentive throughout but not intrusive and paid particular attention to my elderly parents making sure...

One of the best options in this area. Mexican food is quite good and the environment is comfortable, but nevertheless our experience was not 100% satisfying, due to a chicken fajita with poor quantity of meat. Price is correct and staff is quite kind and...

Well the food was amazing like normal. But the service from the waitress was terrible. Ive been to the restaurant numerous times but its never been this bad. Even my son noticed how she was and he is twelve years old. If was for my...

amazing food and nothing bad to say! Ella who served us was so lovely and friendly and had a great time. The hats were fun too!!

Waitress, Janice, was excellent at helping my sceptical non-spice eater husband choose something tasty to suit his palette. Really friendly helpful staff with a great side of delicious food and yummy drinks make for a great Friday date night.

This was my first visit, and will definitely come again. This was the choice of my grandsons- their favourite place - our waitress Janice, was attentive but not intrusive, such a nice lady, nothing was too much trouble

We arrived fairly late at the restaurant (about 8:30pm) with no booking and a group of 9. The staff were so accommodating and polite even though it a a large group for such a late dinner. We ordered two cocktails each and different meals and...
