The beams inside are genuine, and it has a really cosy atmosphere. I have eaten here on numerous occasions, the food is consistently good, and the staff very friendly. Prices are good too. I really liked their stuffed chilli peppers, which is a starter. They are stuffed with cream cheese, and served with a spicy jam. They are yummy, my mouth is watering just thinking about them. Hmm, think I will have to book a table!!!!

It's not Mexican as anyone who's eaten it in the US would recognise it, but the food was good. We never seemed to get the same waiter twice, but that was also OK - service was brisk and friendly enough.

Imagine how disappointed a Mexican person would be about Tex-Mex, which is great to me. That's how…read moreI felt about Chigito's. Others had warned me about British Tex-Mex, but being the adventurous fellow that I am, I decided to take a chance. Now, I can aptly warn others about British Tex-Mex. Instead of a bowl of tortilla chips while you peruse the menu, they bring out a tiny bowl of seasoned popcorn. That was fine--every restaurant needs its "thing"--but the seasoning tasted kind of like mesquite barbecue seasoning and there were a couple slightly wet pieces that made me wonder if I should continue. When the chips did arrive with my meal, they were (at least they tasted) stale with the same strange seasoning. As for my main, I ordered a burrito. I was filling, though flat, and very not bad. If a bunch of friends were eating here, I wouldn't refuse to join them, but it will be a long time before I take this particular adventure again. (If it doesn't go without saying, I think this review is probably appropriate for all the Chiqito restaurants.)

I'm willing to pay for it so figure it out? Two, the fajitas actually weren't bad. Not US standards for sure but not bad for the UK. But, that's about it for this place. It took about 10 minutes for my server to come around after i was seated and i nearly walked out. They were out of Modelo which is always my second choice to Dos Equis. The appetizer was overpriced, small, and took 30 minutes to arrive. The main course followed the appetizer by about 15 minutes which wouldn't normally be bad but after the 30 min wait for the app. it's absurd. I might give this place another chance but with Nandos right next door I can get decent food quickly and cheap so may not ever stop in again.

Then the Tap Room came along and changed it all. Now the wine bar cum restaurant is always full to the rafters with a combination of mummy's with prams, students skiving from school, students returning from university and grasping at city life in the middle of a town, and lads/ladies on 'big nights out.' Everyone is comfortable here. There's an outside seating area, a range of indoor seating, and a good food selection which ranges from Mexican quesadillas to American burgers. On my last visit I happily tucked away a chorizo & cheese quesadilla which, despite being a bit drippy due to the oil of the sausage, was tasty and filled me up for the afternoon. Service can be a bit lacking due to the somewhat tight-knit community of St Ives but this hits the younger generation more than anyone else. The centre of St Ives both geographically and socially.

They have a separate menu with GF options, which is comforting. We have lived in California for the most of our lives and have always trusted Mexican food for gluten free options as they usually can swap corn for flour, which is why we decided to try it. The decor was warm and inviting, the table next to us had a table of all girls having a birthday party and before we left the table had turned into a table of boys for a birthday. It seems to be a great place for families and kids and celebrations, especially being near a movie theater and indoor mini golf. Our hostess was nice and attentive. The food took a while to come (maybe the birthday parties caused it) but we were lost in conversation, so we hardly noticed. I tried the chimichanga and my bf tried the gluten free fajitas. The rice and fajitas were flavorful. After that visit, we ordered uber eats to our hotel and have tried the burrito and salads as well. The food tastes fresh and tasty, so we recommend!

Ugh. I don't like…read moreChiquito. This was so disappointing in every way! I had my hopes up as I'd heard it was pretty good as far as mexican food in England goes. Wrong! Service: We were seated right away which was nice, but then left us at our tables for about 20 minutes before we someone came over to offer us a drink. After that we waited quite awhile again before they took our order. Appetisers: With our drinks they gave us an order of complimentary nachos. There were six nachos on a plate with a tiny dollop of salsa. There were four of us, so...one nacho and a half each. Maybe I am just too American and used to getting endlesss baskets of nachos at mexican restaurants, but I thought this was a bit of a joke! Mains: I ordered a very simple veggie burrito. According to their menu, this was supposed to be full of mushrooms, peppers, onions and cheese. I think I had one mushroom and the rest was all onion. Great big fat chunks of nasty onion. It was so strong I could still taste onions three days later. Gross. Price: Too much! Not impressed with you, Chiquito. Not impressed at all!
