Chiles Mexican Restaurant

The food is delicious and authentic. Some of the best Mexican food you will find anywhere. Just go and try it. It's so good!

Really solid spot with great service. Our waitress was Sara and she was very nice. It was not crowded and the places were clean. Classic Mexican dishes with typical pricing for the area. I recommend it!

Oh was I so excited to find a place that had lengua (cow tongue) tacos! We came here on Mexican independence day- the ambience was chill, not too loud. The staff were very attentive and generous with the chips and salsa. My partner had a breakfast style meal that came with tortillas, rice, beans, and eggs. He said that this place was one of the best Mexican restaurants he's been to in the Tampa area, more authentic than many others he has been to.

It has been difficult finding Mexican food that stands out as better than average. Chiles is definitely a standout. We were greeted & seated & well taken care of. I ordered the 2-enchilada lunch special. My choice was ground beef enchiladas with green sauce. The portion size was plentiful & the enchiladas were tasty & above average. The ground beef had tasty seasoning cooked in it. The green sauce had a small amount of spice to it which was perfect. The rice & beans were fresh & tasty. The only disappointment was the complimentary chips & salsa. The salsa was incredibly bland & dull. Still, Chiles is going to get my repeat business.

I just tried their food as take out, but I really enjoyed it. I went in on a Saturday for lunch, and there were only a few customers in the place.The female server brought me a menu, and since they didn't have birria tacos, I went with the shrimp tacos platter, that came with rice and beans. I also ordered a side of the guacamole with chips.The food came up surprisingly quickly and I was on my way. I loved that when they ring up your order, it gives you a QR code on the receipt, so you can pay that way. So convenient!I really liked my tacos which were packed with shrimp, and the green and red hot sauces that came on the side. I will say thought that without adding the hot sauce, the shrimp didn't seem to have much flavor. The rice and beans were fine. I liked the creaminess of the guacamole, but I thought it was a pretty small serving for the cost.Close by my house and very tasty, I will definitely be back to try other items on the menu.

Hands down one of the best values in town. Top tier quality, massive portions, reasonable prices. This place is a hidden gem

I can't get enough Mexican food and recently while trying to figure out where to get dinner, I realized this place was close by and I had never been despite hearing so much about it. That ended up being one of the best choices of the evening and service was fast and friendly. Chips and salsa are complimentary and out very quickly after being seated. I ended up doing the Ranchero Burrito for my entree. This was by far one of the largest burritos I'd ever seen, and it lasted me a couple of meals as a leftover. It was served with beans and rice and the food was fresh and delicious. Definitely one of my new go to Mexican places in Tampa after this visit.

This is my favorite Mexican food restaurant in Tampa. Everything I've tried is very good. I usely get the Tacos Mexicanos and Burrito Ranchero or Burrito Suizo. This time I tried the Burrito Chile Verde. It was excellent! Like the other burritos it was big with generous portions of meat. It will now be added to my rotation of choices. The people working there are always friendly. Just a great hidden gem.

AWFUL SERVICE!This experience happened two months ago. I initially wrote all of this out in a Google review but never got any feedback. Then last week, I went to a different Mexican restaurant where I wrote on Yelp about an amazing experience I had, and the owner responded, which is why I'm copying and pasting the review here now. My fiancé and I order food from here all the time. Not going anymore! This was the first time I personally go in to pick up an order and it was awful.I went to pick up a to go order of 4 tacos yesterday on a Sunday around 4:45pm. When I arrived I said hi to the person behind the bar, a Spanish speaking woman who asked me for the name, I told her my name for the order and that it was four tacos. She went to the back and while I was standing at the bar there were a few men drinking beer and one of them said hi to me and tried to give me a fist bump, so I just ignored him and felt super uncomfortable. I was also in a hurry because my newborn was in the car with my mom and I didn't want her to get fussy.So while I waited I asked the same server if it was going to take long because I had called about 15 minutes earlier to place the order and they stated it would be ready in 10. She checked and said it will be right out, so I asked if I can go ahead and pay. She took my card and went to the back with it and then came back out and started doing stuff behind the bar without addressing me. All the while I'm standing there next to the drunk man feeling very uncomfortable.I asked her if she had my card since I also didn't like that she just went to the back with it, and she very rudely told me she is not my server and that my server will be out with it soon. I was so confused and told her I didn't have a server, this was a to go order.. and that she was being very rude. This whole interaction with her was in Spanish by the way.She argued with me saying she's not being rude she's just telling me that my server was in the back, which made no sense because she is the only person working there who I had interacted with since I walked in.She walked away and shortly after another older woman came out with the food and my card and looked at me apologetically as I lodged my complaint with her about the other employees behavior.She asked me what happened in English and I told her in Spanish that the other lady was being rude to me and said she wasn't my server. She just seemed apologetic but didn't say much.I am so upset at this situation because we used to enjoy eating here. I would have asked for a manager but again, I had my mom and newborn in the car and it had already taken long enough.Later my fiancé mentioned that the tacos weren't good, specifically the pork one was bad.Very disappointed I had to experience an employee being so rude for no reason. She did not have a name tag but I'm hoping the description and time she was working will let management know who this was.

Huge meal and super tasty! Fast service is a plus, great location close to the stadium
