This place is a pro at False advertising. Don't listen to the street signs and look at your bill twice. Even the manager is a joke! Takes forever to get your food and they charge you double if you don't buy a bucket of beer. Be ware!!!!! read more

Chido's - This is the Asshole waiter we had! - Mexican Near Me - Carolina, Puerto Rico

Terrible, terrible service, BUT the food is delicious and I love that restaurant is open. The heat isn't bothersome at all with the breeze and misters. Come for the food and atmosphere, but know that you will literally be here for hours due to the snail-like service. read more

Unremarkable food. Service was so slow. Servers seemed irritated to be working. Not able to serve the entrees for our party of 4 at the same time. Waited at least 10 minutes in between each of us got our food. Then had the nerve to hover when they hand you the credit card device when it asks for a tip. Should have read reviews. We were just walking by and looked like a fun place. read more

service wasn't bad. asked for ranch was either given expired ranch or potentially blue cheese? appetizers weren't bad. food was awful. chicken quesadilla was made with canned chicken 100%, so unflavored and just bland. chicken fajitas were spiced with something incredibly gross, and the mojito was so sour we couldn't finish anymore than a sip. honestly we couldn't finish anything we ordered. would not recommend. guy at the bar kept whistling incredibly loud and was just annoying. the juke box was nice, and atmosphere was pleasant enough read more

This was a regrettable experience. Was excited to try out some fish tacos, but was supremely let down. The breading was not crunchy, the fish itself was mushy inside of the breading, and the only real flavorful part what the sauce that was very lightly drizzled on them. Service was very slow, even though there were only 6 customers in the whole place. It has a good location, so it may be a good stop for drinks. With the service speed though I can't imagine it being a prime stop. The second star is more because my girlfriend somewhat enjoyed her nachos. read more

Beef tacos are the way to go! There was 3 of us in my party, one of which is a local. He highly suggested the soft tacos, I love soft tacos. He ordered 3 beef, I should have followed his lead but I got one of each (beef, chicken, carnitas) and MY GOODNESS, the beef were THE best! Second place was the carnitas, don't even bother with the chicken. It wasn't terrible but it lacked majorly in comparison in flavor. It's actually very wet from the juice and it didn't help, actually hindered the flavor in my opinion. My boyfriend ordered the chicken burrito and same issue. He ended up eating about half of it and then ordering a hard beef taco which he over loved. Drinks were cheap, major plus. One star knocked off for the lack of service. While our waitress was "nice" she was not attentive at all. Seems to be apart of the culture on the island as we've had this same "issue" at other establishments. read more

I've lived around the corner for two years now, food is alright. Nothing special. Unfortunately has a lot of potential given the bar setup being indoor/outdoor, but they only play music when someone wants to put money into the jukebox. Why not play music all night and keep the crowd at the bar? Instead of sitting there sipping a drink like at a funeral. Get it together guys! read more

We were limited on dinning options for the family on New Years Eve. The first place was out of food. So my son looked up chipotle and this showed up. The carnitas, Beef fajitas, nachos, and el Pastor was off the hook. Will make sure when we visit we will come back. read more

I would not give this place a rating that's how terrible the service and food was. It was six of us. We waited one hour for one appetizer, another thirty minutes for one plate (entree) and the another forty five minutes for the rest of our entrees. So much for eating as a family. The penne was half cooked and the lettuce for the Cesar salad was wilted and brown. The manager knew the service was lousy and didn't have the courtesy to come over and speak to us. He left the dirty work to the waiter who was the only one who was apologetic. He charged me for the shrimp on top of that nasty salad. Whoop- de-doo!! Gave Chili a bad name. Would never go back to another Chili as long as I live. As for the manager poor managerial skills. No le daría a este lugar una calificación por lo terrible que fue el servicio y la comida. Éramos seis. Esperamos una hora para un aperitivo, otros treinta minutos para un plato (entrada) y otros cuarenta y cinco minutos para el resto de nuestras entradas. Demasiado para comer en familia. El penne estaba medio cocido y la lechuga para la ensalada César estaba marchita y dorada. El gerente sabía que el servicio era pésimo y no tuvo la cortesía de venir a hablar con nosotros. Dejó el trabajo sucio al mesero que fue el único que se disculpó. Me cobró los camarones encima de esa desagradable ensalada. Whoop-de-doo!! Le dio a Chile un mal nombre. Nunca volvería a otro Chili mientras viva. En cuanto a las habilidades gerenciales deficientes del gerente. read more

So, I'm giving this place a 2 stars based SOLELY on the super nice waitress and her accommodating manager tonight. My bf and I read the reviews before coming in and we were seriously excited. We wanted good Mexican food and the reviews we read raved about the food being sooo good. We seriously wanted to like the food but it was terrible. We ordered the guacamole, which was runny, had a bitter taste and was overall tasteless. I don't even know how you can screw up guacamole, but it turns out- you can! It was seriously the worst guacamole I've ever had. We ate the chips and left the guacamole. It was seriously so bad that I couldn't bring myself to actually pay for it. I nicely explained to the waitress that I just couldn't pay for it. The waitress spoke to the manager and they took it off the bill, which I gratefully appreciated and ended up tipping the waitress more generously (almost 32%) because I frankly would rather pay the waitress for her time than to pay for that guacamole! We also ordered the beef hard shell taco and the tacos al pastor (3 tacos). Honestly, the tacos were not great and the pork was tough and in slices, which made me question whether it was actually beef. There was too much onion and they literally put fresh pineapple pieces on it. All the other times I've had this, the meat is flavorful, juicy and the pineapple was cooked with the meat. The ground beef taco was not great either. I don't even know how to explain it. Too salty and oily, yet lacking flavor, aside from salty? By this point, the entire meal was pretty much terrible, but I didn't have the heart to tell the poor waitress how terrible it was. And there we were the entire time, looking over at Pizza City and realizing we clearly picked the wrong place to eat at. I'm thinking maybe the food "might" taste better if we were drinkers and had taken advantage of the $13 for 5 Coronas (great deal by the way!)? I guess we will never know. I'm hoping it was just a bad night for Chido's but I really don't want to find out by coming back. read more

The food is so good. Order from the House Specialties Page Of the menu. I had the Cameron's Tequila Sooo good!!! Served on half of the largest avocado I've seen, the prawns were large and delicious. The sauce was creamy with a bit of cheese but not heavy. DH had enchiladas mole and theu were exquisite. Served w ground beef, the mole was the star. More chocolaty than ever found on the mainland but still savory. The accompaniments were excellent Our neighbor had a huge steak but we were Trying to keep our total under $40. We did great. With beers we were still under $30 before tax and tip. read more

Service was the worst I've had in all of my 2 weeks in Puerto Rico, eating out all day everyday. Food itself was ok, if you hadn't had to wait forever for it while dealing with a waitress with an attitude. This is a group review as well, I asked the nicer people how many stars to put. read more

Nice 24/7 bar spot with good bar food. The wings was big and tasty and the avocado dip was good also. I guess somewhere to go and drink if u have nothing else or need food after club hours read more

I think this place has the best bang for your buck regarding drinks...mostly Modelo and Corona bucket specials but they have craft beers and a chilled fireball machine. Corner spot on the Isla Verde strip with huge open windows playing Spanish music so it's like being outside. Service was good. read more

We stopped in after our friend recommended the restaurant and boy were we impressed! The service was awesome, fish tacos are the way to go!!! Not sure what sauce they put, but I wanted to put that sauce on everything! The margaritas are decent and pretty relaxed feel to it. We came back after the beach just for drinks because the service was fantastic and reasonably priced. read more

Their burritos were amazing!! They offered vegan burritos! The waiting staff was very attentive and polite. The location is perfect and the service was overall great. 10/10 going back! The burritos were mouth watering and the music was nice, and mist to cool off was a great bonus! read more

Everything here was great! Including the service! The pork nachos were delicious! Everyone was very friendly and helpful.

Open 24/7, $5.00 valet parking. This place is on the corner. Has no air ac, no windows. Great for people watching. Friday had 2 for $10 frozen margaritas. The beer was barely below room temperature. Chips and guacamole was ok, not much flavor, not fresh - little on the runny side, almost like prepackaged/processed food. read more

We sat down and no one served us. We got up and found a server and asked if we could get someone to help us. She just brushed us off and told us where the menus were. We had to get our own menus and order our own drinks from the bar. Finally a server came to help us. The food came out cold and dry. Although the chicken fajitas were good, the chicken burrito was dry and cold and they fish tacos were average. Service was horrible! read more

Delicious fare and good service! Definitely try the sangria on the rocks. But probably don't feed the pigeons and grackles read more

My boy Nicky agrees.....the great beef tacos and beer buckets still rule, but beware of tacos de pollo.

I've been to Chido's a number of times over the past couple years, and it has been a great overall experience with every visit! I usually order the super nachos with a group, which is massive and delicious, and the tacos on the menu are great too. The drinks are pretty inexpensive compared to some other places around. The service has been pretty slow at times, with us sometimes having to go and get the waiter to bring our check, but I'll keep coming back for the nachos and the drinks! read more

Chido's - Chicken Super Nachos - Mexican Near Me - Carolina, Puerto Rico

Came here with my sister thinking we were going to have a great time doing that we walked past it other nights and the music/atmosphere seemed nice. When we go there, we weren't even greeted. We sat ourselves down and waited about 20 to be asked what we wanted ect: customer service was not the best. Now the food went along with the customer service. Felt like the meet in my wrap was not cooked all the way. And to top it all of the server placed the plate on the table very carelessly. First and last time, no shade but shade. read more

The BEST margaritas in San Juan. Half gallon pitcher on rocks for $25. Haven't tried the food, yet.

It's like the Applebee's of Mexican food. Nothing unique or very good and slightly over priced. The service is a little lacking too. Would be a three star rating, however this is the only place I've eaten at that upset my stomach. I'm a pretty daring foodie so I've tried the places that you would think could make you ill and been fine. One meal here and well you get the idea. read more

Not really worth the amount of money for what you get. The chips and guacamole were dreadful; they were old processed and runny. The meat was chewy and not cooked to how it was asked plus it was too oily. Not really Mexican food at all. They had good alcohol drinks though. The service was also, blah. There were customers complaining left and right. Definitely not coming back. Sincerely - a Mexican-American tourist. read more

We are on vacation from Ohio and have come here two nights in a row now. The fish tacos, crunchy shell tacos with chicken, fajitas, etc. are very good. Everything we've had has been good. I don't even like Corona and I had one here last night and it was good. The bartenders aren't very friendly nor truthful, but the waiter we had the first night was so good we requested him the second night. They play good music and high quality TV's. read more

Would recommend for your stay in Puerto Rico. Drinks are cheap and they had a sangria gasoline which is 12 dollars for a crazy amount of alcohol. The super nachos are super delicious and the wait times are non existent as we got seated immediately by friendly smiles. Would recommend to anyone read more

Walked by this place coming from Isla Verde and decided to stop by. Our service was slow but our waitress was very accommodative and communicative. They seemed to have a good drink selection. I ordered 2 decently-sized burritos for only $5 each, however both seemed to be made with very low quality. I ate the chicken burrito, but couldn't bring myself to take more than a couple of bites out of the beef due to the saltiness and dryness. My girlfriend ordered a few fish tacos, and they were very cheap and tasty so no problem there. For dessert, we had the Oreo Churro which was pretty good. All in all I would say this is more of a bar than a restaurant, but the atmosphere is very social and makes for a nice spot to hang out after a long day at the sun. Just don't expect a 5-Star meal. read more

Horrible service. I have been living in isla verde over a year and every sinlge time I go to this place it takes 10 minutes or more just to get acknowledged as a customer then 20 minutes just to get a first drink, if ever and it doesnt even matter if they have 2 customers or 10. Last night we went to play pool we requested the bucket special for corona and received medallia. When we pointed out we wanted corona the waitress took the bucket and literally never returned, went to the bar 30 minutes later to ask for the beers, she looked at me like i wasnt even standing there and then went to go stand by the entrance door with 2 other employees and they collectively just stood there for 5 full minutes doing nothing. 2 other people were also trying to order and the barback couldnt help get the bartender or waitress to come take orders either. The nachos are good, if you are willing to go thru the bullshit and wait an hour. we never did get anything to drink in a whole hour. They only got our business at the pool table cause the other 2 spots with pool tables in the area are closed. But never again, will just go to calle Loiza and play pool there and get some drinks and food next time. As for the food- Hijoles right down the road is MUCH better quality, menu and waaay better service. Lupis food is comparable and their service is way better too, plus they play ufc fights and football games on their tvs. read more

I've came here twice; once for drinks and then food. They are overpriced...very overpriced. Both times I went they didn't have the menu for their tequila bar. Neither time was it open either. I had the tacos and they were tiny, bland and watery. This place markets to the tourists. Service was so so but I did notice that most people were waiting an extra long time just to be given water. I would not recommend this place for anything. read more

This is by far the worst place in Puerto Rico to eat or come by to get anything. The customer service was way off and the waiters where so rude and disrespectful. If I could take this place off the map I would!. The food was disgusting and so not worth the price. I order the Mariscos tacos and I can honestly say I would rather starve the whole night than to ever have a bite of this food. I told the waiter the food was terrible and that I didn't want to eat it. He rudely said "so you don't want it?! " took the plate away and said nothing else. He left me with my cup of water in the table and nothing else.. at end of my peers meal we asked for the bill & he ignored us , we asked again & he came by very rudely to set the bill down. No manager, server himself or anyone apologized for any of the incidents. Yet, once the bill got to our table he still charged us for the meal I never ate... way to represent not only the restaurant but also Puerto Rico.. AVOID THIS PLACE read more

I had a positive experience , ordered pork nachos and chicken taco salad both were incredible. I also had the 2 for $10 frozen margarita which was great! I enjoyed this place would definitely go back read more

Worst service ever.... from bartender saying im being hostile because im asking for hotsauce ... no silverware to have ur food, from some kid giving me one plate and i ask for two .... his answer; it doest matter ill bring another.... this staff needs intense training on service and hospitality!
