To celebrate Cinco de Mayo, I took my wife to Chimi's Fresh-Mex (the Rock Road location). It had been a few years since our last visit, so we weren't sure what to expect. We arrived about 10 minutes before 5:00 p.m., and the place was already packed--impressive considering the restaurant has a large dining area. Even so, we were seated within a couple of minutes, which was a great start. For how busy it was, the service really stood out. It was quick, attentive, and well-managed throughout our visit. My wife ordered the vegetarian fajitas with a glass of Pinot Grigio, and I went with the chicken fajitas and a Corona. Our food arrived in about 10 minutes, which was surprisingly fast given the crowd. The complimentary chips and salsa were fresh and flavorful, and both fajita dishes were cooked perfectly and tasted great. Everything came out hot and well-prepared. Overall, I was genuinely impressed. On one of the busiest days of the year for a Mexican restaurant, both the food and service were on point. We'll definitely be back sooner rather than later. read more

I haven't been to a Chimis in a very long time so a friend decided to stop in for lunch. Service was pretty steady during lunch and our server was pretty prompt. We ordered frozen margarita which were really good but sweet. We ordered from the lunch menu which is smaller portions than the lunch but just enough food. The shredded chicken in my enchilada was bland but the shredded beef was good in my chimi. Their refried beans are runny which didn't bother me as it was still good. I would return if in in the area. read more

I came here with a group for a group dinner. There were supposed to be 10 of us, 8 showed up. We were able to get a table on a weeknight right away. Pros: - server offered to do individual checks right away knowing we were a group - salsa is amazing - food was good, I got a combo with tamale and flautas and enjoyed it. I also liked that it came with corn cake and sour cream - affordable Cons: - I ordered my combo specifically because it had a corn cake... corn cake was served on top of lettuce, cold. Dissapointing. - Service overall was slow... they were not busy, our waiter was not serving lots of tables, but it took a while to get drinks, salsa refills and to order. Food itself came out like 5 minutes after we ordered it. Overall it was a good experience and I would come back. Food had good flavor and they offer daily specials. read more

The food was horrible with weird congealed cheese on my nachos and it was cold. My friend's chimichanga was straight out of the freezer and you could tell as it had freezer burn on it and it was still frozen I side. I literally don't know how they call themselves a Mexican restaurant. Don't even get me started on my mango margarita, it was horrible. read more

They charge for more than 1 serving of chips and salsa now!! $1.99 for chips and salsa...... from "rising inflation". I just think it's funny that in my 20+ years of life the inflation has never affected this commodity but now that everyone is price gouging us they join the train. It might not be a lot of money or a big deal but it really made me never want to come back. Greedy is what it seams but that's just my opinion. read more

Good food, food is always fresh and hot, great atmosphere always clean and the people are friendly.

Satisfactory chimichangas were served up on a cold day with retried beans, rice, and salad. The real treat, though, was the fresh salsa with the complementary chips. It was a bitterly cold day and unthinking patrons used an exit-only door, each time forcing a blast of Arctic air onto diners who had been seated nearby. Why not a door sign advising diners to use the front entry, which had double doors and an entryway that dampened the chill? read more

I was with a big group of people for a birthday and the service was bad . The first person to order was the last person to get there food . And at the end they charged gratuity which is fine but he added 2 sets of taxes then try to tell me how he was right . I work in the service business I never heard of it but okay . Would never be back . read more

The food was good however the service was terrible. Came here for lunch on a Friday afternoon the restaurant wasn't overly busy yet my server was no where to be found after bringing my food and soda. Literally neither he nor anyone else came to check on whether I needed a refill or anything else. Left after thirty minutes and for the first time in my life I left no tip at all. read more

My son and I visited this location, we were literally in and out because of the speedy service from the staff. I order a combo plate which included a chicken enchilada and burrito with a side of beans. My son ordered a beef enchilada and soft taco with beans. The food was very tasty, it was a little busy and noisy but overall we will definitely return for another visit. read more

This was my second time going to this particular Chimi's with the same result. They (all the servers except maybe one) pretend they don't speak English. For instance, this visit was a Saturday afternoon and college football was on ABC, CBS, & ESPN, but every television was on a satellite station broadcasting a soccer game. I asked my server if he would change the Television in front of where I was sitting to one of the three networks I have mentioned and he went and got a guy & I repeated everything again and this guy went and got a guy, then all over again and this guy said nothing but did bring 3 remotes and (LOL) none of them operated the t.v. in front of me. I laughed and ate and left, NEVER EVER TO RETURN. read more

Food is always amazing keep up the good work.service is fast never waiting for food.people are kind always and at your service.amazing!

This restaurant has become a favored joke in my family. Where do we want to go when we want decent Mexican food and the worst service in the NoCo? Chimis! Where are we when the entire table is placing bets as to whether we can substitute corncake for something else that day? Chimis! I've got a new one. What restaurant am I calling to order a to go meal where the phone is answered three times, each time I'm told I can order, and the second I begin to order I hear, "Okay!" and then they hang up? Chimis! (This was 4:30 in the afternoon.) You don't have to like us, folks, but you may wish to serve us with a bit of competency, courtesy, and consistency if you want us to help you stay afloat. read more

Delicious food, friendly staff and wonderful service. The margaritas are great. My friends and I came here on a Friday night for dinner, no wait, no lines, very Covid safe/friendly. We stayed until closing, we were so wrapped up in our conversation that we barely noticed the staff, turning off the televisions, putting chairs on the table, lol. Sorry read more

Went here in a Friday at 3 one other couple in the whole restaurant. Oddly they do not have a bar. Well we ordered and ended up with food poisoning. Neither of us felt very well approx 10 min after leaving. And let's just say the rest of the night we were both running for the bathroom. NEVER AGAIN!! They have turned me off for ALL Mexican food and even hearing a Mexican food. read more

As soon as I landed in St. Louis, this was the first place my friend and I came to eat. We both ordered meals and food was excellent. I can't speak to my friend's food, but I ordered vegetable burritos. It was good, but wish there was more green peppers and onions. The chips were really good. If I'm back in St. Louis, I would come here again. read more

You never get a second chance to make a first impression. So I swiped that line from a commercial of long, long ago, but it still holds true! Chimi's Fresh Mex made quite an impression on my mother and I when we utilized her Groupon for an early dinner. Fortunately, dinner starts at 3:00 in the world of Chimi's. :) We had both had a light breakfast and were eager for a filling dinner. The deets: Chips & salsa appeared on the table almost immediately after we sat down. Almost any place that gives me something to munch on while I await my entrée already has a leg up in my book. Food - we both ordered fajitas: I got steak and chicken and mom got steak. Their telltale sizzling, and wonderfully steamy aroma, arrived at the table moments before the plates, accompanied by sautéed onions and peppers. Verdict - PERFECTLY cooked, juicy steak, three flour tortillas, beans and cheese, rice, pico, lettuce, sour cream. Drinks - I got a medium lime margarita on the rocks with salt and mom got a small frozen lime margarita with salt. Verdict - My drink came in nice fishbowl glass and was super cold, but mom and I both agreed that the margarita mix in both of our drinks was a little...off. Like, it had a fake lime-y taste, slightly offensive odor, and strange darkish green hue, versus the brighter yellowish, smooth margaritas we've had elsewhere. It was heavy on the alcohol. I know...that description sounds weird. It's hard to articulate, but let's just say I wouldn't get the same thing to drink again. Service - attentive, friendly and prompt! Decor - awesome. The little racks for salt, pepper, hot sauce, etc. were small wooden crate type doodads mounted on the wall. This afforded us more table space, which I thought was super cool! I've never seen anything like that before. Groupon - totally worth it. I'd certainly visit again without one, if solely for the beautiful marriage of fresh add-ins for my savory steak and chicken fajitas. read more

A group of co-workers used to frequent this location probably on a weekly basis. This last visit our server wrote 1 order incorrectly, he did correct it but most everyone was finishing up before the person received their correct order. This would have been acceptable; however when the server brought the food he apologized but then added a very crude remark (in his native language) about the person . I guess he didn't realize we understood the language! It was crude enough that no one in our group will return because of it. The servicer or lack there of had to be reminder multiple times of 1 person's drink order he even told one of us to "hold on" and then went to another table. Most of us chose not to give tip that day which we are generous tippers. Very disappointing ! read more

I get it is a Sunday, but not having a host/hostess is ridiculous for dinner rush. We waited for 5 minutes t be acknowledged by anyone( the employees kept ignoring us) Then had to ask a server if we could be seated.Then had to ask to be actually served. Our server Sergio was fantastic! The food? Ew.The margarita looked gross, my soup was luke warm, the "burrito" were two enchiladas. I will not be back to this restaurant. Taco Bell next door has better service and food. read more

Have you ever eaten somewhere after hearing good things and then feel like you've been tricked? Let me preface all of this by saying that on both nights I visited, the service was impeccable. Five stars for the customer service. My first visit was one evening after an 11-hour workday with some coworkers. Margaritas & tequila, yes yes! We all had margaritas and they were amazing! A few days later, I noticed a Groupon for this location so I thought, what the heck and I purchased the deal. Here you will find the standard Tex-Mex menu; combination platters, enchiladas, tacos, tortillas, and the Americanized items like chimichangas, nachos and fajitas. On my second visit I had a chicken quesadillas; and while the ingredients were noticeably fresh, there was so much cheese I couldn't taste anything else but the cheese. I don't like really thick slices of chicken so the fact it was thinly sliced was great for me. Unquestionably, this place is better than the ubiquitous Taco Bell and it is also wallet-friendly. Not stand out, not better than some other Tex-Mex chains but not horrible either. read more

The first time deciding to try this place. We did go here on a very busy night, I tried to order a frozen margarita then our server told me the machine was broken so I was very disappointed with that. I ordered 3 enchiladas and said 1 cheese but I got 1 filled with chicken instead, I asked our server if I could get the cheese enchilada like I ordered, she said fine. But it never came out. I asked a couple more times and it never came out and I waited a very long time. I guess its good to point out, that our original orders came out very quick, the food quality is pretty average, nothing to rave about. But the service here is not great at all. I don't know if I would come back again. I could not even get my water refilled when I asked. There are better cheap Mexican type joints around town. If I can't get good service or my order right, why even bother to come here? read more

We used to order from here all the time and the last few times they have either forgotten an item Or just got our order wrong. I even left a positive review 3 years ago! The food can be good, but the portion sizes/quality are inconsistent. They always forget our chips and salsa and will make you pay for it if you try to get delivery. When we called to report our items missing, they hung up on us!!! With so many great restaurants in our area, don't waste your time here! The service is terrible, the staff is not friendly. I understand that people make mistakes but they didn't even care. read more

Welp the service started out ok but went downhill really fast. I had just gotten off of work so I was a bit hungry and even more thirsty. Getting a refill was close to impossible and when I finally got one it tasted like the lemonade had run out.. Now for the food welp let's just say it's a one and done for us. I have a sort of sensitive tummy and before we left I felt like it was all going to come back up... Didn't take pics cause nothing captured my attention.... read more

We've been to the St. Charles Chimis several times. However, there was a groupon for this location so we got that. The groupon DID extend its date because of covid, so that was nice. I'll be honest, it was my fault for not reading the "fine print" and i found out the groupon was dine-in only. My folks are in their 70's and we're not comfortable with dine in. I was told I couldn't use my groupon for my carry out. I thought about asking for a table and just sitting there taking up a table and then asking for a bunch of doggie bags, but that would be rude. Also, the salchicha (sausage) dip was TERRIBLE. Sadly, we only ordered it because there was money left over on the groupon. So I paid full price for everything, including an item I really didn't want. Only gets 2 stars because the food was otherwise good. read more

The food is great with lots of options! Illustrations on the the menus for a good selection. I like the fajitas nachos at the Mexican places and Chimis has that but the fajitas nachos are in a taco salad style with the lettuce, tomato, Guam on the side. Huge area to eat and enjoy read more

Went for lunch Thurs at 12pm & restaurant was pretty packed with several large groups. We had to wait to be seated as cashier was busy taking to go order but once seated we were served big basket of warm thin chips & spicy salsa but not too hot just a kick! Waiter was patient while we perused menu, l ordered Lunch Menu Chicken Fajitas & came w fresh salsa, guacamole salad, beans & rice. Friend ordered Beef Enchildas & came with sides. We were both ecstatic w generous portions & my fajitas came out sizzling red n green peppers, onions, chicken moist seasoned yummy! Made 3 fajitas & had plenty left to take home & make nachos. Friend could only eat 2 beef enchiladas & half of sides so she packed up leftovers for hubby. We both loved our food, attentive server, & left full w leftovers at fair price! read more

Good food! I'm from the south so I was craving some TexMex, this isn't quite that but it did the trick! Really good!

So good! Fast service and great food! Authentic decor and very inexpensive. I would definitely go back!

Three locations later and I am still not a fan of Chimi's. I have never had their margaritas but I am doubtful having them will change my mind about this place. I don't remember what I had the first time I have ever set foot inside a Chimi's but I do remember the food being very average tasting. The second time, I had some chicken enchiladas and I still was unimpressed. This time, we noticed that this location is open while looking for a lunch place close to work so we decided to give it another go. I ordered pollo fundido: grilled chicken with sauteed peppers and onions with cheese sauce all over served with guacomole, pico de gallo, rice and some flour tortillas. First of all, the dish contained the minimum amount of grilled chicken on the plate covered with light cheese sauce, lots of sauteed onions, red and green bell peppers, a small side of rice and an excessive amount of flavorless beans. The guacamole was showing some slight discoloration on top which made it look quite unappetizing (I did not touch mine) and the pico de gallo also looked a little sad with wilted looking tomato chunks. The service was fine. Food arrived to the table quickly and the drinks were refilled fast. No main issues with the service. The restroom stalls could use some toilet paper refill. I went into a stall and there was not a single roll of toilet paper. I tried the next one and still nothing. I got lucky enough to find the 3rd one with a meager amount of toilet paper. I laughed a little while in there remembering an episode of Seinfeld with Elaine and the woman currently dating Jerry in the episode who did not want to share even a square of toilet paper. Anyway, I surely hope that wasn't the norm for this location. The restroom was visibly clean, at least. read more
