Good food but the service was absolutely shocking, front of house staff were laying down while people were waiting at the door and waiting to be served. Had to walk over to them and ask for our bill we had waited half an hour for, just to be told another member of staff will bring a card machine and he went back to laying down.

Really lovely experience being here. I have intolerances that are not standard ones and all of the staff looked after me really well. The service did get slower as the evening went on, but Ciaran was just fabulous. Thank you.

Absolutely shocking service and useless management! **waitress not at fault** Waited over an hour to be told that our food was not even ordered and it was only being made now and will take another 20 minutes! Management didn’t even come to speak to us.

Portions for starter was small £8 for one soft taco is a little insane. Main was nice but we were served on a rusty pan that was flaking off into our food?!! (Check pics)

Great atmosphere, so glad we booked (but why wouldn't you on a Saturday night?!). Relatively quick service, though drinks took a while. Food was good, but I did think my main lacked a bit of flavour tbh. However, it's still my fave cuisine and I will be back!

Chiquito has been a firm favourite of ours for many years but our local in ones closed down so it was great to find this one in Leicester was still open The menu is good, the food well prepared and presented and very tasty. Will be back next time we are in the area .

The place was empty at 2pm on a Saturday and therefore lacked ambience and made you wonder what was wrong with it 😬 Food was good though, table bit sticky and we got short measures on glasses of Prosecco but they gave us 1 free glass to share as compensation which was a bit weird but better than nothing.

Really slow table service. Left waiting for initial contact (and drinks) left waiting for the order to be taken. Left waiting for the table to be cleared and desert order so we didn't bother.. left waiting for the bill. Arrived at 6 left at 8.30 with an under 2 year old to keep happy. Very poorly managed branch. The food was ok. Overall, it was a poor experience.

The food was mediocre, the service very bad despite the reasonably small amount of customers. We waited 20 minutes for someone to take our drinks order, then another 20 for food, half an hour for our drinks, an hour for food and 30 for someone to give the bill, but we still had to wait an entirely too long time for the machine to pay. I am thoroughly disappointed with how the place turned out.

After sitting down we were greeted by Grace who was extremely attentive and polite, she gave us the perfect amount of time to order our drinks and food. I’ve visited a number of restaurants throughout my time and been served by hundreds, without a shadow of doubt Grace provided the greatest level of service I have ever seen. She was wonderful and I strongly believe the business will only continue to benefit with her working here! If I could give more than 5* I would. I hope Grace will benefit as well from this review with a lovely bottle of Sauvignon as she thoroughly deserves it! Thank you once again, Grace.

On entry we stood waiting at doorway for too long before someone came to seat us. Our table was near entrance so everytime anyone entered or exited we felt the cold. Took a long time fo waitress to take drinks order and a long time for drinks and food to arrive. I only saw 2 waitresses and it was quite busy for a Monday night. Uncleared tables surrounded us. The food took a long time to come out. It was cooked well but just tasted bland. There was only ketchup on the tables so I asked for sauce to make it tastier. A tiny pot of hot sauce was brought to table. It was just very hot then. I felt the waitresses were friemdly and hard working but the restaurant lacked atmosphere. Nobody had sombrerros offered. They were in a pile unused. I could barely hear music. Mexican music wpuld have been atmospheric. The place had lost its charm. Food cooked properly but the chef must just do what the company says. I can make better mexican with an old el paso kit. Wont rush back. Shame as was looking forward to it. Like everywhere these days, short staffed! & Cuts in quality!

Dropped in for an early tea at 5pm on a Monday. Service was great - order taken very effectively and made to feel very welcome. Drinks and starter arrived quickly and were excellent. Main course took a little longer but worth the wait. Good food, nice service, reasonable price, excellent portion size - what's not to like.

Visited after about a year as we got a 40% off food voucher. Our server was very efficient and helpful, however it took forever for our food to come out. All we had was nachos to start which took 20 mins to come out and then another 20 mins for a fajita and steak. The food was really rubbish. Nachos hardly had any cheese, fajita was tiny bit of chicken on a huge pile of onion and the steak was absolutely tiny. Bill came without 40% off but was rectified quickly. We won’t be returning and it’s clear to see what they are doing 40% off food as it’s just not worth the money.

The restaurant doors open. Therefore, we believed the restaurant was open. When we entered, we were rudely informed that the restaurant was not open. The food is good value for money, we had gone for lunchtime. We were offered the lunch time deal, and on the menu, they had churros. When we were informed that they did not have this in stock and that we were not able to substitute the item.

Had Fajitas and a veg Chimichanga. The front of house manager, forgot the wraps and side sauces for the fajitas. Another waitress, named Grace who looked as though she was having a bit of a busy shift sorted out our meal and couldn't apologize enough. This kind of worker needs praising as she stopped what could have been a complaint. Give her a bonus.

A very very generous 2 stars. Had to wait 40 mins for starters another hour for mains. I overheard they had some chef issues and it was shown in the food. Definitely not up to the usual par or standard this chain should be running on. Massively disappointing as we came as a birthday but discount was given and staff were as accommodating as they could be with a lack of chefs.

We tried Chiquitos today for the 1st time, and we're so glad that we did. We had nachos and tortilla starters and beef burger and chicken burger for our mains. Everything was served steaming hot and was delicious. The chips were crispy, as were the onion rings and the portions were very generous. Andrea was so lovely and helped with our selection as we weren't sure what to order. We will definitely be returning.

Hey, it's Chiquito's. Food is fine, hits the spot, crowd pleaser. We were planning on eating in the city centre but with the EDL protests, decided to go elsewhere. A special mention to staff though. All exemplary, friendly and balanced of attentiveness and reality. It wasn't schmaltzy.

My first visit to this branch. There's plenty of parking available, with a few disabled parking spaces. Wheelchair and buggy friendly entrance. We didn't have a table booked but were able to seat us straight away. The menu has a good variety of options available. Some very nice cocktails are on the drinks list, which are worth trying. The staff are great and offer advice on food and drink if you ask them for their opinion, which is good when you aren't sure what to try. All the staff were very friendly. There's plenty of space between the tables in most areas, making it go for groups of people. The one thing thing that let the place down, in my opinion, was how dark it was inside. It might be considered cosy in cold, dark winter days. However, it doesn't affect the quality of food, drink, or service.

Not worth the price. It was way overpriced for the taste and quality of food. Got a burrito and chips and salsa. Chips were stale and burrito was flavorless. Only good thing was the salsa which they give you the smallest amount of.

A great place to eat & very convenient. The food was tasty & came out quickly. The drinks/cocktails were well made & we're quite fussy with our drinks. We dined on 11/05/24 at 16:30, which was slightly quieter. The service from the blue top waiter was very good. He had a good energy about him, & went the extra mile. He connected well, even when we was playing poker, whilst waiting for the food. Also a waitress, dressed in full black, was very professional too. Unfortunately, I forgot to leave a tip, or get their names. They made the experience very good & would have received one. They also offer NHS, forces discount at 20%, which is great that they support these services. I would reccomend coming here.
