Chiquito - Portsmouth - Gunwharf Quay in Portsmouth

Such a lovely lunch, me and my partner really fancied Mexican for lunch today and we had the perfect lunch and a very lovely service from Kieran! Thankyou

An amazing day out with my Greek family enjoying delicious food, amazing cocktails and fantastic service from Rebecca and Agi.

Dinner was fab. Service was amazing. Warm, kind and professional. Becca is so lovely and professional. ;). The rest of the team was auper lovely too. Food was lovely.

We had the best time, great service from Becka, amazing food and drink and the best atmosphere! We will be coming again for sure! Thank you 😁

This is the second time we have lunch at Chiquito. We have learnt from our first experience that it’s best to book a table which we did today. It’s no surprise it’s always busy and customers on the waiting list happily wait for a table. The ambiance is so joyful, nicely decorated. The waiters are so kind and professional. The food really tasty both visits. A big big thank to Liam our super helpful waiter today helped with recommendation and all was good. Liam even checked on us few times and followed our order up without us even asking,made sure we’re happy and served with a big smile! And that’s with the restaurant packed! Liam managed to keep all the tables he served happy. We’re definitely going back.

Great mexican restaurant with a really wide selection of food We had the loaded nachos to start with chicken and chorizo, which was delicious, followed by the shredded beef chimichanga and a texas burger with sweet potato fries. I absolutely loved the food but was absolutely stuffed after 😆 A huge shout out as well to our lovely waitress ( Caroline), who was very friendly and helpful. She made our dining experience a great one 👍🏼

Good food, very filling, good quality for what you pay as well. Brilliant and enthusiastic service with friendly staff and clean environment. Thank you to our server Kieran who ensured us a pleasant evening 🙂

Lovely meal and amazing service from Keiran from start to finish at the gunwharf restaurant very accommodating

Excellent service, excellent food and drinks. The restaurant is very well managed. Hats off to the restaurant manager Agi. Thanks Ata

What a fantastic place! Kieran was an excellent server - he was so friendly and really helped us enjoy our meal on a day when we had just turned up without a reservation. Really lovely food, great speedy service and reasonably priced. Great awareness of allergens and very attentive. Thank you to all the staff but especially Kieran.

We went without booking on my husband birthday (we unexpectedly had to spend the night in Portsmouth). Despite the restaurant being full, Aguistino found us a table and made sure we had a memorable evening. Thank you so much for a fantastic evening!

Ambience great, spotlessly clean, great staff and our meals were EXCELLENT. Best meal out for a very long time

Everytime we go here we are so happy. Always good food, good drinks and happy environment. Tonight we had the best service from Luis. Thank you.

Our server Kieran was awesome. Fantastic food...great service and friendly atmosphere. Also liked the servers StarWars tattoos and advised him against a JarJar upgrade, which I'm sure he'll be thankful for in later life.

This is my first visit since December 2020 and i was very pleased with the service and attention we had from the guy who served us . I think he is Italian and his name is Agostinho. He made our evening very special and all our requests were met . The team seem to have been well schooled by the Italian guy to put the customer first. Even minor things like a table clearer dropping a knife on the floor is met by a quick glance from him to check whether customers have been inconvenienced. 10 of 10 , we will be definitely back !

Always enjoy dinner at Chiquito's. Food is good & staff are great. Conveniently located next to the cinema makes it a great spot for date night or a night out with friends!

Amazing and fair priced as always, Food always on time and never have to wait too long for our cocktails! Big thankyou to our server KIERAN who made our experience that little more special! Will be coming again soon.

Service from all the staff was great, our server Kieran was attentive, friendly and genuine- and did more than ‘just the job’ which was refreshing. This was our first time to a Chiquito and it was a good experience, food was great- build your own...

Great evening , food was great also service amazing, especial mention for churros and fajitas. Kieran was amazing and very helpful with my food intolerances.

Hadn't visited this chain before but were tempted by cocktails and Mexican food. Had two different margaritas ( obviously) which were flavourfull, though not of alcohol! I would be amazed if the glasses had even seen a tequila bottle. Chicken nachos were good but our...

Had my sisters 18th birthday meal here. Overall food was nice and our waitress Callie was lovely and hardworking however the manager on shift was very unprofessional and rude to her on several occasions for things out of her control. At one point he gave...

Great evening, great atmosphere, great food Dan the manager was polite and chatty, brought out food and ordered additional drinks for us The restaurant was busy but, we were served in a timely professional manner Great team at chiquito Portsmouth led by a polite professional...

This is the fourth time we've visited now in the last 3 months with either a group of our friends, or our children, and we are yet to be disappointed. Food is incredibly tasty as always and the portion sizes are big. Tonight we had...

We came here to celebrate our daughter going off to Uni. Previous experiences of Chiquito’s at other restaurants was impersonal and bland service. However the staff at gunwharf from the waiters, to the fabulous French speaking manager made it a very happy and memorable experience....

Thank you very much to Erica, who made us so welcome and provided exemplary service. She always smiled and made the evening special. Thank you also to Fatima, who worked alongside Erica and brought part of our order. Again, always with a smile. Finally, a...

Returning guest and it was Amazing food and amazing service from kieran as always, always happy to go here

nice family meal for 3, well priced and good food. manager went above and beyond to ensure an enjoyable experience.

Got an email to say that you could have 2 mains for £20 Mon-Fri 7pm onwards So I booked a table for 7.30pm Got there waitress had an attitude when I said about the 2 mains for £20 she she didn’t know any thing about...

Definitely the place to eat at Gunwarf! Good and customer service were amazing even on a Friday night. 😀 the French manager was super friendly.

One chicken salad, one burger from lunch menu plus one coffee. Food was ok. Service was slow. The lunch menu with one course £9+ two courses around £12 and three courses around £14 so seems to be good value.

Lunch deal of upto 3 courses was good value but food just was just average. Service was ok, would possibly return.

We visited Chiquito last night after realising that All Bar one had closed (9pm as it was a Sunday) we are having a few nights away so didn’t realise the time so went to Chiquito as still open. Mains here huge! I ordered chicken fajitas...

Absolutely amazing service! Becca was so helpful she made our evening so special! It’s my husbands birthday dinner and it was so special thanx to our lovely waitress!!! Will definitely come back again!

We often eat at Chiquito in Gunwharfe and have happened to be served by Becca. She has always made our experience much more pleasant by being kind to the kids and helping them feel at home. Becca is attentive and courteous with well-developed social an...

Excellent meal at Chiquitos at Portsmouth quay, the kids menu is great value for money and the Fajitas are the best in the UK. Our waiter Kieron was an absolute star and made it a really memorable evening - thanks!

Our waiter Sam was excellent. The service was great and he went above an beyond. After having recently had some substandard meals out at other restaurants it was finally nice to be able to say both the food and service was worth the money.

our waiter sam was amazing , he made sure our experience was a 10/10, the food was great, came in a perfect time slot. we’re on holiday and my grandad has never had mexican food, but we all enjoyed it! i would recommend to everyone

Had a great experience at the gunwarf quays Chiquito’s. Our waiter Keiran was so amazing and helpful, Such good service! would definitely come back.

Great service tonight from Kieran, he is very attentive and professional always checking to make sure everything was to our liking! Great server and as asset to your restaurant Food as always was fantastic and flavoursome

The food was ok although hot however our waiter Liam was amazing! Top lad, fast, attentive, entertaining and fun! Would have been a 2 star review without him! Make sure to look after him Chiquito because without great people like Liam your restaurant is distinctly...

Great atmosphere, good choice of food. The staff were friendly, food was nice but wasn’t well presented. Found the drink prices obscenely priced it was £8.20 for a large glass of wine and £6.30 for a pint. Totally over priced and unreasonable.

Food and service where both amazing, lovely friendly atmosphere, our waitress was very smiley and attentive (not sure of her name but she was pregnant). Great selection of drinks available. So much food to choose from, cane out quickly and hot.

Food was so delicious on our recent visit! Served by cally and she was just great, definitely recommend this place if you’re in gunwharf shopping or just want a nice evening meal!

Lovely food but the highlight of our evening was Caroline, she was very attentive - always made sure we were happy and had enough to eat and drink. Very smiley and well mannered, super impressed. Would recommend!

We had pre booked as there were 6 of us we all ordered different food from the menu, my husband ordered Steak medium Rare but when it arrived he couldn’t cut into it as it was so tough, but the other meals we ok but...

We normally go to Las iguanas - my partner calls it the works canteen but todays visit caused him to call Cinquitos the “executive dining room” enjoyed the excellent food served by Ruby a real treasure. Would highly recommend a visit. We chose from the...

It was a very cold evening, we had tried another restaurant where the welcome was as cold as the room temperature and we left without ordering ! We entered Chiquito’s and was immediately warmed by the heating and the welcome, apologies to the young man...

Went to Chiquitos, Portsmouth tonight. Firstly they seemed surprised we had reserved a table but managed to find us one. I ordered vegan enchiladas, first order was burnt to a crisp so sent it back, no apology from the staff, replacement order was unbelievably hot,...

Really good. I booked a table online and arrived a little early, but the staff still fitted me in, despite it being busy. Loved the food, it never disappoints. Great service by all the staff, friendly and helpful, even though they were run off their...

After a difficult day of travelling culminating with the hotel restaurant closing early and leaving us hungry, we arrived at Chiquitos just before closing time. The staff went out of their way to prepare a fresh takeaway meal for us and made us feel welcome...

Great customer service staff were lovely Food really good highly recommend the sea-bass Will 💯 be back Great atmosphere x

Table booked for 8pm, not seated till 8.35pm, and it really wasn't busy. Then took an hour for the food to arrive. Just a really poor experience that totally spoiled an evening out for 16 hungry boys. No excuses at all, you should really have...

Attended Chiquita gunwharf quay prior to going to IOW and can honestly say it was the worst experience I’ve had. Every single thing we wanted we had to hail a waiter/waitress (one of 6 stood doing nothing) - drinks, food order, plate clearing x 2,...

Last minute decision to stop for lunch at Chiquitos today and we are so pleased we did. We were seated quickly, service (gutted I didn’t get her name) and the food was amazing. We ordered 2 courses off the set lunch menu. Such great value...

We had a great visit, the food was perfect and the service was exceptional. We are looking forward to coming back for another visit

A lovely lunchtime meal. After spending almost £500 on shoes in Loake we decided a spot of lunch was required. We havent been for a couple of meals here but it didnt , and it never has disappointed. Beautiful starters, wonderful mains ,good beers. Really...

Nachos sharer was small and not as good as can be made at home completely nothing like the food served in Mexico. Main course tortillas was expected to eat off a tissue. Ordered plates and the staff seemed to bulk at the thought I wanted...

We visited here as a group of 6, including a small child. We had pre booked a table for 17.30 which fit in well with our day out and the dinner time and tiredness of the little one. Despite pre booking we had to wait...

For a Saturday night the atmosphere was great and I don't mind slow service but when the waiter doesn't come over for over an hour, just to apologize for the lack of food ( starters and main course) then you feel bad. No problem serving...

Food was not brilliant,the chilli was a small spoon full on a mountain of rice but the ladies toilets were dreadful,they should not have been open when the loos were in such a poor state.considering the bill was £81 ,i wish we had not bothered.

We used to love coming here when visiting the area because the Chiquito in our home town has long gone. Anyway, we haven't been to this Portsmouth one for a couple of years now and we could really notice a difference from our last visit....

Erika. Lovely woman and she was very attentive which was lovely. We had great food here and drinks were so refreshing. We didn't have to wait at all to get the drinks or food. The place was nice and clean. Definitely wont be long till...

Restaurant was not busy - quit e a few empty tables. Our server forgot our table and we had to wait 30 mins until we were even offered to order our drinks. Food took another 45 mins to come out and when it did, they...

HARVEY!! Love love love. What an amazing guy, brilliant, so funny. A wicked credit to your place. In other news, I’m still up for adopting him.

I visited today with my mum and we were taken care of by the lovely Kieran, he was very sweet and attentive. He continuously checked on us and made sure we were happy. He genuinely cares that you have the best experience at this restaurant...

Yummy food, lovely service and nice setting. Thanks to Kieran, our waiter, who checked we were okay and made our stay comfortable. We had: Crispy halloumi sticks Loaded fries Sweet Potato fries Chicken burrito Pork chimchanga Passionfruit and Chocolate tart

We opted for this restaurant last Saturday and so glad we did. We wanted to sit outside which they managed to arrange for us, but having had a visit to the toilets sort of wished we sat inside and the decor and vibe was lovely....

Liam , Diana, Dima Lovely experience, great food with Fantastic customer service skills coming from Liam, Diana & Dima. Attention to details from Liam was impressive. The only negative was from a lady tattoo and glasses which I didn't get the name of, relatively aggressive...

Lovely staff and lovely food. We had a great time, only let down was the toilets. In the ladies one was out of order, one didn’t lock and the other was plunged into complete darkness. In need of a refurb

The food was great but our waitress Cally was amazing. She was so friendly and attentive, she made the whole experience better for us and we would defo come back again :)

God food and cally was lovely waitress, she was very personable and fun to chat with. The chimichanga was perfect and quite filling.

I'm sorry, but I think the service has been rather poor. We ordered three beers but we got four. The waitress admitted the mistake, meant, the 4th beer is free. But as we ordered the bill they wanted to clear four beers. The waiter -...

Good meal out whilst shopping with family. Catered for everyone nicely as we had vegan and gluten free requirements. Really nice waiter who took the time to get the order right as it was a bit complicated. Would recommend. My chicken and chorizo topped salad...

We walked in, nobody at the greeting station. The barman nodded, but service staff just walked past and seemed to ignore us. Eventually we were seated, right under a loud speaker in a practically empty restaurant, so we moved tables! The place looks ok, but...

Rob answered all our questions and gave us a very warm and friendly service. Food was delicious, Burger, Five Bean Chimichanga washed down with a San Miguel, job done and yummy. Cheers guys.
