Definitely went with high expectations, specially there's not that many Mexican places in winter haven , so let's try this place .... Well ... we order some steak ranchero and steak in green sauce , lady tell us after we order 2 min later that they don't have steak anymore ( really ? Bad inventory ) so then we order the shrimp fajitas and breaded shrimp , the fajitas there were nice , but the breaded shrimp totally disappointed, was brought with pieces of jalapeños breaded , was not that good , place look a little dirty inside and service was not that great ... I hate to shut down the door to places , but this one definitely I'm not coming back to try seconds ... read more

Moved to Winter Haven a couple months ago and have been looking for a place to eat tacos! Found this Mexican restaurant and boy, are we happy! My husband got the molcajete that has everything in it...chorizo, cactus, chicken, shrimp and steak with tortillas and beans and rice on the side. I got the Carne asada tacos with rice and beans on the side. When we first sat down we were promptly brought chips and salsa. Chips were fresh and warm and the salsa as to be expected. When our main dishes came out, our first bites had us dancing in our seats. The flavor of the meats are so good. Everything tender and tasty in their natural juices. I don't know what kind of salsa they gave with the tacos but it was on point. A little on the spicey side but delicious! It was such a good portion of serving we both had boxes for leftover take homes. There were only 2 servers while we were there but they were both very nice and attentive. The restaurant seating feels a little close and crowded and the restaurant itself is a bit outdated but don't let that deter you. The food is spot on and I am confident to say that this may soon become a local favorite of ours. read more

Great authentic Mexican food, awesome service. Special thanks to the manager for assisting with helping my disabled sister get into our vehicle during a rainstorm. This meant the world to us during a difficult period! read more

Service is always great. It never takes long to get your order. The home made hot sauce is fantastic. The chicken fajita cascades are great.

This place has the best Mexican food in the county perhaps the entire US of A! The white cheese dip with chips is the bomb! The staff is attentive and professional! The food is excellent and very flavorful! Don't listen to these other stupid reviews yes the building is not great but guess what I'm not eating the damn building! My Brazilian family loves it as well and it's all they want when we go out! read more

The food is authentic and spot-on, fresh and very tasty, and plenty of it at a very reasonable price--I eat there quite often and it's always spot-on !! read more

Why's this place such a secret? Great food and amazing service, with affordable prices. Nothing fancy, but I found this restaurant to be excellent! I only ate 1/4 of my burrito and my partner had the flutas, which were delicious. I wish the had carnitas, though. We have a new neighborhood restaurant when we have a yen for Mexican food. Way better than that (shall remain nameless) overpriced place on Cypress Gardens Blvd that used to be our favorite. read more

I can't say anything about the food because we opted for drinks after the gym. Ha:) we munched on chips and salsa with queso and took advantage of the 2 for 1 margs that were only $6. We had two different waiters (shift change), and both were really nice. I sucked my first drink down so quickly that the waiter jokingly picked my glass up and even looked at the bottom, to which I sheepishly said, "it's..all gone." Quiet atmosphere, I think it was about 6 when we went. Masks are mandatory until you are seated, just FYI. Definitely a lot of good things on the menu, I'll have to expand my horizons next time! read more

Food was tasteless, service was quick and food was piping hot because the plates were on fire!! I grew up in Chicago and had some of the best Mexican restaurants in walking distance in every direction! Even when we moved to Indiana we had better choices of places to eat than here in Florida. Sorry but don't bother if you're seeking a tasteful meal! read more

Great food and great service! Tacos carne asada are excellent. Chips and salsa are also good. Ask for the white dipping cheese. Excellent.

All I have to say is that 10.00 margarita was everything. I'm not even sure how big that styrofoam cup was. Geez! read more

Chile Verde Mexican Restaurant - Margaritas - Mexican Near Me - Winter Haven, Florida

We had the taco salad, and lunch specials burrito and quesadillas. All delicious! Salsa is yummy and has a kick. Definitely recommend!

I've eaten here before but I guess I just never reviewed Chile Verde. I remembered it being pretty goodIt's located the movie theater in Winter Haven. Honestly, the outside looks horrible but the inside is your typical Mexican cowboy decor. I ordered the lunch #8, with a burrito and taco with beans. My husband ordered the. #7, fried burrito with rice and beans. The food is hot and delicious. We got our food within 5 minutes of ordering but we also walked in the minute they opened. We started with the bean dip, creamy refried beans covered with queso. It adds a depth to the Queso that is sooo good! You have to try it. The lunch specials are $8-$12, and you get plenty of food. Ignore the run down look on the outside because this is a surprising hidden gem on the inside. read more

The servers were so sweet and kind and attentive. The food was really good! We had the fajitas, the platters with mixed meats and the churros for dessert. What I loved is that we were able to share and they options for the tortillas read more

Let start by saying that the salsa is watery. You know from the start if the salsa isn't good you are in trouble. The stuffed Chili was water logged ( previously frozen) the meat in the burrito was salty. The only saving grace was the Rice and beans. I was truly disappointed and would never come back much less recommend this place. read more

The restaurant appears to be an old Wendy's or some fast food restaurant. The building is in need of repairs, and the interior definitely could use a makeover. There was one single man working the front, I assume he's the owner but did not ask. He brought us a small bowl of salsa and a small basket of chips before taking our order. We ordered queso dip appetizer and 2 lunch specials. He brought the queso dip without chips (our small basket served with the salsa was empty). We asked for more chips and he brought another small basket. We ended up asking for more chips to finish our queso, only to find an extra charge of $3.00 on our bill for extra chips. I can maybe understand if we didn't order a dip appetizer and simply plowed through free chips and salsa, but c'mon! We did question the bill the the server/owner(?) who refused to change it. Food was fairly good, typical Tex-Mex. read more

The food was really good. I had heard about this place on Facebook and had to try it. I really enjoyed it. I had the fajita which was so much I had to bring it home. The steak in the fajita was very tender. The chips were warm and fresh and the salsa was delicious. Most of us brought food home. The portions were more than enough. read more

Authentic Mexican food, not the most updated digs but the food is is good and the service is prompt.

I went for my birthday and I wasn't disappointed. Our server was amazing and very friendly. Will definitely return..

Wow! What happened to this place? Came on a Sat. Afternoon and it was empty. Welcome was a guy sitting at the bar reading and without a word put up two fingers and pointed to the dining room, same guy came to table, still no greeting and seemed bothered he was taken from his reading.... Quality of food has gone down too.... Sorry but probably last time I will come here. read more

Fresh salsa & guacamole here. Delicious. The guacamole is pricey unless you order a dish that comes with it. Great menu items I've had: chimichangas, hard tacos & enchiladas. Excellent service & never a wait to be seated. Restaurant is clean but needs work. read more

Went here based on Yelp reviews, pulled into the parking lot about 5:30 pm No one else was in the place, that gave us second thoughts but what the heck. They said sit anyplace, some of the booth seats were torn but we found a place to sit. The waiter came right away ordered drinks, great wine pour and I got a big beer in a ice mug .my wife ordered chicken fajita and I ordered Carne asada tacos, everything was very good, the service was great and the price was right. Glad we went and will go back. read more

I would give them 5 stars if they only let you get the two for one margaritas in the large size also. They're food is delicious. My daughter and I love eating here and often meet friends here. Employees are very nice also! read more

I have eaten here three times with friends. It's quite good and the lunch portions are very nicely sized. I have had, and enjoyed, chicken enchiladas and beef tacos, both were quite good. I ordered a chile relleno, it was okay, but I've had better. It's a good place for lunch, good prices. It's a go to when I'm in Winter Haven; I don't know if it's better than other Mexican restaurants, but we enjoy it well enough. read more

Yummy. Great service. A different type of Mexican then the usual. The hot sauce is actually hot. The chicken quesadilla was stuffed with a lot of chicken and delicious. Beans and rice were also delicious and the prices were very reasonable for such large portions. read more

It's authentic for sure but they really need to clean the place up inside and out. It takes away from the dining experience.

If I could give a no star review I would, they were exceptionally rude when we walked in, the woman who brought us chips and salsa seemed annoyed when asked for queso with our chips and we had to ask her multiple times to bring it, I also asked for hot sauce and she brought a salsa instead of Cholula or Tabasco sauce (I asked for those not just hot sauce since she barely spoke English) when she brought us our drinks 2 minutes after sitting down she wanted to take our orders and since we had barely looked at the menu we asked if we could have a minute or two to look at the menu and she seemed annoyed that we didn't know what we wanted, she then took almost 10 minutes to come back and we were the only ones in the restaurant. When we didn't leave a tip because the service was so bad they took it upon themselves to write a tip in and when we confronted them they said "If you don't tip, we won't serve you again" even though they write their own tip if you write "0" on the check and write the total as it was with no tip. I wouldn't be mad, but $60 for two people to eat and to get crap service is just absurd and then to have them add an extra $5 for a tip she didn't even deserve! read more

The food here was great. The shredded chicken is flavorful, the queso is good, large portions too. This is way better than Azteca or El Ollivo. The reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because I got it to go so I can't review for the service or atmosphere. read more

Authentic Mexican at its best. My husband have been enjoying this restaurant for the past six months and regret having to leave it to return north. The burritos supremo's are the best. My husband enjoys the burritos deluxe. The margarita's are the best. Can't wait to return in the fall! read more
