Visited this little gem on a Tuesday night. I walked in and the place was pretty empty (as we know, COVID has hurt plenty of businesses especially restaurants). I was a little skeptical but we decided to take a seat AND BOY! ARE WE GLAD WE DID!! Eugenia was attentive and answered all our questions with smiles. Gabriel was extremely pleasant and awesome in explaining the specialty dishes not listed on the menu. We ordered the seafood special and we're still talking about it. It was delicious and better than some of the same dishes we've ordered at other "seafood specialty" restaurants. Lastly, Nestor the bartender, was very good at his craft and prepared us tasty drinks. In all, this place has a new set of customers! We will be back undoubtedly!! read more

Chilito's - Excellent food and service!!! The place was very clean! I strongly recommend it! - Mexican Near Me - Newburgh, New York

They come to your table and offer you sides but never tell you the price and when you get the bill you have a big surprise of how much they have added on to your bill. The prices are too high for where it is at and the type of food that it is. They also add the gratuity which I think is a bit ridiculous. I went there with my wife and was overcharged I will not be going back there for some mediocre food. read more

Formally Daddy O's in the Newburgh Mall, now called Chilitos. Just an excellent place for Mexican food. The service is spot on and extremely attentive. The food is delicious, served hot on a hot plate and the ingredients were fresh and well prepared. This is a hidden gem for now in a town overflowing with chain restaurants. Highly recommend for an enjoyable, laid back night out. read more

Probably the best Mexican restaurant in the Northeast, more than worth it to check this place out. Our server, Gabriel, was excellent at service and we had such a great time. read more

This place was just a good find off the highway for a dinner stop. I highly recommend the fajitas. The staff was so nice and the decor was super festive. I would definitely have a party there when we are finally allowed to have them. They also have some tables outside so you can eat there which was nice. Check them out! read more

Can't believe I'd ever give this place a bad review and I thought id be a customer for life. I've eaten in about 6 times, taken out 3. All six times I ate in, food was great. 1st time I got take out it was fine, they forgot the guac but no biggie. 2nd time taking out, got 2 entrees, 1 of which was wrong (I ordered the Pollo Mexicana, got Pollo mole poblano, also didn't make a stink because it was still good). 3rd taking out which was tonight, was atrocious. I called up for delivery which is something they just started offering a couple weeks ago but they said they weren't delivering because of bad weather...there was heavy rain and tstorms about an hour earlier and actually wasn't doing anything but whatever, if they don't want to deliver they don't have to deliver. So my wife decided to go there on her way home and place the order to take home. She waited for 40 mins. The bartender checked over the food. She brought the food home. The entire order was wrong. Ordered Pollo poblano and chalupas with red sauce, got some kind of taquito with mole sauce and chalupas with green sauce. Now we had to say something. Politely called and said we didn't get anything we ordered. She (bartender) said bring it back for a refund. We said well its an inconvenience for us to have to drive back there and wait again, can we have some compensation for our troubles? No offers for any comps. We have to bring the food back for a refund then we can reorder and pay for our new meal. This made me mad because there was no attempt to make things right. I would have said well you can keep the food we gave you free of charge (since they will just throw it out anyway) and at least that would have given us the option of not having to go back out and eating what we have which isn't our first choice but at least it's free. Or they could have said bring it back and we'll comp you one of the dishes you want to reorder. Something. But no, nothing. We drove back with the food. I was very disappointed at this point, and I wanted an explanation. The bartender didn't so much as apologize. Just took us to the register to give back our money. I said to her "I'm very disappointed you didn't try to make things right"....not a word from her. Not even eye contact. I said "does it even bother you that you have unhappy customers?" ...with the most sarcastic tone she finally made half open eye contact with me and said yes it does..as if to sigh with boredom. My wife and I are still shocked at the whole experience. I understand people make mistakes. We all do. It's how you respond and make up for your mistake. We are very sorry to say we will never eat here again and will be telling all our friends the same. After leaving there, we went to Bobby Burrito to get our mex fill and got the best service. Btw, they were also still delivering lol. read more

This place is great! We enjoy ordering take out from here or stopping by for a meal. Always treated nicely. Always good food!!

This place is delicious, gracious and filling. Come in and eat, you won't be disappointed. This was our third time in and I realized I need to tell you Yelpers to come and support this small biz! Bueno. read more

Really great and authentic Mexican food, but also some of the most friendly staff I've encountered. Eating or getting a drink at their bar have been really positive experiences so far. Def recommend Chilitos! read more

Well, I should have known better. It's in a mall. I'm trying to think of the last time I had good food in a mall... Hmmmm, NEVER. This is no exception. Sorry, folks. not authentic, not tasty, nothing to make me smile. I made the mistake of recommending this place to a friend from out of the area. Won't do it again. On the plus side, it didn't make me sick. read more

Great service! Awesome atmosphere! I'd recommend to anyone looking for a mexican fix in the Newburgh area. read more

THE WORST RESTAURANT in Newburgh, once we entered their was no one to greet us we had to wait to be seated and it wasn't even packed. As we were seated we were given tortilla chips the best part of the whole visit btw. Next we ordered drinks, I got jugo de jamaica , i'm telling u right now it was more ice than juice. It didn't taste right they gave us the bottom of the machine definitely.Then they gave us quesadillas, In WHAT WORLD is a quesadilla just a tortilla, it was disgusting. Then we ordered food , prices are CRAZY, I got Bistec Montezuma, horrible ,the steak was tasteless dry, the rice dry, pretty sure the chef has no taste buds or has never tried his own food. I didn't even finish the dish. THEN CAME THE BILL, OUTRAGEOUS. We were like the food might come at 100-110 dollars but NOPE, turns out they already have tip included in the bill 24$?!!!! are u serious the service wasn't even good we felt rushed. The drinks came at 6 dollars each it's four of us, the cup was more ice than juice. I also forgot to mention that one would think when u get chips u get served with a side of salsa and GUACAMOLE but instead they wanna serve u a pinch of guacamole and price it AT 11$!!!!! we didn't even know u had to pay for that. On top of that we have to pay TO pay with card. Should've ordered Pizza. Oh we also ordered water, it looked like they grabbed the cup and stuck it in a puddle from outside. THE WATER looked BRownish. read more

The best Mexican Food I have ever had!! Fresh. Fresh. Fresh. The service was excellent! People were very exceptionally pleasant and nice! Don't eat Mexican food anywhere else!! Just had the best dessert ever! Fabulous!! read more

Asked for a martini and was given one about a 1/4 of the glass full and was charged for a premium. The bartender didn't even know how to make one and had to get the owner to make it. He told me that a full martini glass would mean he would have to charge me a "triple". $30 for a real martini at this dive? Are you kidding me? read more

Chilito's - Mexican Near Me - Newburgh, New York

Just found this restaurant tonight on Yelp (thank you!). It's right near my neighborhood and we had no idea it existed even though they've been open for a few months. The decor is festive, service was helpful and attentive, and food was outstanding! They started us with complimentary chips and salsa, followed by a mini cheesy quesadilla type of thing. I ordered the enchiladas suiza while my husband had the bistec Montezuma, both of which were piping hot, authentic and super fresh. The frozen margaritas we ordered were fabulous, too! We didn't have room for dessert but the waiter brought out complimentary fried banana flautas which were a perfect ending to a great meal. What a gem of a place for Newburgh! We can't wait to go back. They have live mariachi on Fridays and karaoke on Wednesdays. read more

The food was only OK. Had to add a lot of Mexican spice. Prices are was too high and I feel this place will go out of business soon.

This is one of my favorite Mexican restaurants. The staff is super friendly and the food is so good. I'm glad Newburgh finally got a nice sit down Mexican restaurant. We have been there a couple times since they've opened and were impressed each time. read more

Food was great and the service was awesome wonderful place for lunch or dinner. Enchiladas were amazing and fresh. Cannot express enough how great our experience was the brothers that own this place are amazing individuals and they are very gracious. I found my new spot. read more

Chilito's was excellent. Super friendly staff and great food. To me, it's the best Mexican food in the area.

Read reviews on Yelp and decided to give Chillitos a try. Glad we did. Guac and all sides were made fresh from scratch when we ordered. We had five people in our group and ordered several irems on the menu. Everyone commented their main course was cooked and seasoned very well. Service was excellent as they attended to our every need. I do recommend Chillitos for a fun, authentic and delicious place to eat for mexican food. read more

I loved this place! Great atmosphere and good food. The service was prompt and friendly. Couldn't find anything to complain about. Bathrooms were clean as well. I will be going back. read more

Good Mexican food with excellent friendly service. We enjoy the Bistec Montezuma which is flank steak stuffed with Mexican cheese. They are flexible with substituting sides so don't be afraid to ask. The complimentary quesadilla and dessert were amazing. Had to say no to the complimentary shot of liquor. Will return read more

So happy I decided to try chilito's . The server's are very friendly and attentive. The food was amazing. This is by far the best Mexican food in Newburgh. Try them you won't be disappointed. read more

Chilito's - The was amazing!! - Mexican Near Me - Newburgh, New York

Love this place , the owners are so nice, I wish they opened a place in Staten Island . I called here last minute for a reservation for my daughters graduation dinner. They were very accommodating and friendly and said no problem. I had booked for a party of 15, even though half our party never showed up. We were very hungry and ordered appetizers of shrimp cocktail and guacamole. Tasted delicious. I ordered a shrimp dish sautéed in garlic and butter., my husband got the shrimp fajitas . Both were delicious. The sauce from the shrimp cocktail was so yummy, had big chunks of avocado in it..we also ordered pina coladas . They were very tasty too. The owner was so nice , gave us chips and salsa on the house and deserts to. I doubt I will be back because I don't live local. But, I encourage anyone who lives in Newburgh to definitely try this place out. Decorated so pretty, food was all delicious , and very nice owners. It is located in the Newburgh mall too. Thankyou again for giving us a great place to celebrate. We all loved it read more

Fresh authentic Mexican food. BIG portions and excellent service. I will go back . Ordered the Broiled Steak and it was done to perfection . For dessert: the banana enchilada with honey and whip cream YUMMY read more

It's expensive for a Mexican Restaurant already! I ordered take out for 4 people, but the bill was 8 dollar's more then his own website says. When I asked why the owner stammered around saying the menu just changed a day or two ago. Rather then honor the price he choose to loose a customer. I'm sick of feeling taken advantage of and saying nothing. I have been in twice. The first time the bill was 125 because I did not realize how ridiculous priced there mix drinks are. Tonight I spent 64. THERE WILL NOT BE A 3RD TIME. read more

Twice we have visited and each time is outstanding. Great beer selection and outstanding service. Food is delicious and great atmosphere.

Great little spot in Newburgh. Nice atmosphere, friendly staff and the food was awesome. Tried the Molecajete and was not disappointed. A little pricey and they included the gratuity in the total bill (not something I'm used to seeing) but overall it was a good experience. I look forward to coming back soon. read more

Ridiculously expensive I'm all for good Mexican food, but this restaurant's pricing and policies make that far from you need to be concerned about. Their prices are highly marked up for Dinner. Knowing that usually drinks are ordered with meals, they've lost no time in marking those up as well where I almost fell out of my chair when I received the bill. Close to $200 later for tacos, enchiladas and chimichangas, I noticed there was a 22% tip added to the bill where I questioned the waiter and he told me it was because those tips are automatically added to bills over $100. Then he argued it wasn't 22% so I took out my calculator and showed him I can do basic math. Seeing it on my calculator screen, he continued to deny it being 22% and then said well it's because we were a large party. We were 6 of which 2 were small kids. Then he left and came back and said his cash register "system" automatically only allows that tip and he can't change it but can add on to it if I'd like. He was just trying to get wise with me at this point. I found their pricing and way of doing business unethical and more than anyone needs to put with for tacos that were just Ok. No reason to pay NY Steakhouse prices for tacos and burritos. Plenty of other choices nearby that doesn't break the bank. read more

Absolutely terrible, and terrible service. I got take out and the food was cold and soggy. And when I came back to tell them, they blamed me. Sorry just because I was 5 min late doesn't mean my food should be ice cold. read more

Love this place. We have been here several times and the staff is friendly. They start you off with complimentary cheese quesadilla and chips. The food is good and comes out fast. We have tried different stuff from the menu and have enjoyed them all. Great Mexican place. read more

My fiancé wanted to try this place out. Being 9 months pregnant I'm very picky with Mexican food but this place did NOT disappoint. I craved tamales with mole sauce and had asked the waiter what kind of tamales they had. It wasn't with mole BUT he said they can put mole sauce over the tamale if I would like and that was a thoughtful thing to suggest especially with my craving. I got the tamal, enchilada, taco combo and when the food came out it looked amazing. Everything tasted great and at the end we got this banana dessert which tasted so good I wanted a 2nd. Highly recommend this place. It's clean and the staff is so nice. read more

Just came in on a whim for lunch and dont regret it at all. We only had the tacos and the tostados, but they were both really good. Service and atmosphere was great. We will be coming back to check out happy hour! read more

Great place to have a nice and quiet meal with your favorite person in the world. They are always going away free food even if you don't order much. The business model baffles me but who am I to let them know. Very nice servers. read more

There is nothing good about this place. Drinks were terrible, sent one back and they charged us anyway. Waiter asked if wanted quacomole for the table so we said sure however he never mentioned we would charged $10 for it. Food was not great either and the music was awful and way too loud! Don't waste your money. read more

Good solid Mexican fare at very reasonable prices, many dishes above par for this type of venue. The staff is unbelievably friendly and attentive. Definitely come here before hitting any of the other chain restaurants in the Newburgh area. Great Experience! (One note- As of this writing the outside sign still reads Daddy O's -the previous establishment, but it's Chilito's once you enter the mall) read more

Went to Chilito's in the Newburgh mall today thinking it was still Daddy-o's. To our pleasant surprise (no signage yet indicating the change of business) it was fantastic. Authentic Mexican ambiance, fresh delicious food-all 3 meals-, amazing red sangria, happy attentive service, and great prices. Will definitely be back. read more

This place had amazing food, great aesthetics and charm, too. They even gave us desert on the house! 5/5 stars, hands-down.

Wasn't expecting much of anything great when I decided to eat here. Every other restaurant that's been at that location, or within the Newburgh Mall in general, has not been good. However, this time I was very pleasantly surprised! The people were very friendly and welcoming, everyone gets a warm tortilla with cheese as well as chips and salsa as an Appetizer. The meals were delicious! The pitchers of sangria were worth it. Then, you get a free small dessert, which is just as good as everything else. I've been back several times since my first visit. I definitely recommend giving it a try! I hope it makes it longer than those previous attempts. Rooting for them! read more
