    Tacos
    Railyn W.

    The place has a great vibe...Jam packed on a Friday night...have reservations! Menu was smaller than what I expected in regard to appetizers. The main course options were decent. I ordered the fajitas. They came out sizzling..The presentation was good but it lacked in flavor. I was in a large party and everyone seemed to enjoy their food overall. I would go back.

    I had the chicken fajitas to go. Everything was still hot when I got back to the room. I like the salsa more than the chicken but everything was good. Chips were thin and fresh, and the to go order came out fast. The Spanish rice was flavorful. I tried to eat the beans but they didn't include a fork and the chips were too thin for scooping. Overall nice meal.

    I finally made it to Chi-Chi's and let me just say... happy hour is doing exactly what it needs to do. First of all, if you're not pulling up between 2-5pm, you're missing the whole assignment. The deals are solid, the energy is right, and the menu actually hits. We're talking tacos, queso, and margaritas flowing, everything you want when you're trying to unwind but still feel a little cute about it. Now let's talk about the real MVP: Ashley behind the bar. Babyyyy... attentive, personable, and just the right amount of "I got you" energy. You can tell she knows her stuff and keeps the vibe going without missing a beat. That kind of service? It matters. And the margaritas?? EVERYTHING. Frozen, on the rocks, flavored, doesn't matter. They're strong, smooth, and dangerously easy to keep ordering. Exactly how a margarita should be. Overall, Chi-Chi's understood the assignment with happy hour. Good drinks, solid bites, and service that makes you want to stay a little longer than you planned. Would I come back? Absolutely. Would I sit at the bar again? Without hesitation.

    Chips and salsa
    Stephanie P.

    I've been wanting to try the new Chi-Chi's for so long and I'm glad we did as it was all really good. The chips and salsa are reminiscent of Rojo and very good. They were thin and salty and the salsa had a nice texture. We both had the white sangria. They portion was perfect for only $11 and it was fruity and refreshing for a beautiful night outside. The chimichanga was enjoyed. The short rib filling was good as was the corn cake. The sauce on top was a little heavy/indulgent though. Birria tacos were good as well. Short rinse filling was tender. Rice and beans were good. The consomme for dipping was just ok though, thought it could have been a bit deeper in flavor. We sat outside and the patio space is huge, it's on both sides of the restaurant. Service was really good as well. There is a free underground parking ramp too. I look forward to another visit.

    What a trip down memory lane! I have fond memories of Chi Chi's past. I wish the reincarnation of the restaurant had included the sweet corn cake. That was my favorite item at the old Chi Chi's, so I was disappointed that it wasn't included on the new menu. For the most part, the items we tried were good; we came for happy hour and the happy hour menu was pretty good! - House Margarita 4/5 ($8); was actually pretty tasty for a house marg - Happy hour beer 4/5 ($5) - Chips and salsa 4/5 (FREE!); house made chips and decent salsa - Queso 5/5 ($7) - Nachos with ground beef 2/5 ($8) - Taco 4/5 ($5); house made flour tortilla was tasty The nachos were the only disappointment. The cheese sauce (as opposed to melted cheese) made them WET and unappetizing. Also, the chips are thinner than I'd like, making the addition of toppings or dip a real problem. Our server, Shelby, was pleasant and attentive. The interior space was attractive, and the high ceilings made the acoustics very good. There was free parking in a ramp nearby.

    We had a birthday here, for a friend. They were able to accommodate our larger party size. The margaritas were amazing just as good as I remember them and as good as Rojos were. I did really like their fish tacos, they reminded me a lot of Rojos. The good news is is they still have that great rice, do not sleep on it. Get a double order if you can. For the Friends, who remembered Chi chis, they loved the chimichanga and said it tasted just like the ones they used to have. I would say it's great for folks who remember the old restaurant it definitely hits on that nostalgia, it is not the same as it was when it was Rojo. But if you understand that then you will have an awesome experience.

    I don't know why people rave about this place it's terrible!!! If you want bland food go here. The rice was obviously scooped from premade rice. The nachos were barely edible and looked awful. Service was sub par as well. Good came out but no silverware until we mentioned we needed it.

    Growing up with Chi Chi's, I couldn't wait to get in here. The space is really great. Warm, festive and welcoming. Our server was delightful and please keep those chips and salsa stocked on our table. LOL The menu choices were smaller than I anticipated and my biggest disappointment...no substitutions. If you order enchiladas, they all have to be the same flavor. Our server said they're working on this but it was a bummer. The little corn cake is delicious and the sweet Spanish rice is a yummy option to try. We enjoyed our dinner but likely wouldn't go out of our way to visit again.

    Chicken Fajitas
    Nicole C.

    One of my favs when growing up. Maybe it's being an adult now, maybe it's not being there with my grandparents, whatever it was I felt no nostalgia. Thankfully we thought ahead and made reservations. Crazy how busy it was at 5:30 on a Tuesday! Service was average. She was nice but not super attentive. I had a burro and it was lacking in flavor. Husband had chicken fajitas and the chicken was so overdone and dry-like shoe leather. Chips and salsa were good, pretty much what Rojo served. Love that they kept the Rojo sweet rice on the menu- one of my favs. May go back in time to try again but overall left disappointed.

    I was not in MN when Chi Chi's was around in the 90's, but did live in Texas for several years and was excited to have a new Mexican spot to try in on the west side of the cities. I was unable to make a reservation over 2 weeks in advance, so we opted to try walk in. My group split between 2 tables to get our group in faster. We sat right beside the open concept kitchen were you could see fresh food being plated and taken to the guests. The decor was light and bright, even on a cold morning. We were greeted with fresh warm tortilla chips and salsa and we ordered a queso! I decided on the N/A Margarita, but I really wish the mocktail came in a cocktail glass rather than a pint glass. The fajitas and cheese enchiladas were great - it wasn't my texas texmex but it was a good runner up. Refried beans amazing and I would recommend getting the sweet rice!!

    Fried Ice Cream
    Joe J.

    Happened to be in the Minneapolis area for work when I heard that ChiChi's was back open! Of course, I had to make a quick pit stop to check it out. The ambience and overall vibe were fantastic. It somehow feels modern but still captures that classic ChiChi's charm we all remember. The place was packed for a Sunday night, which was great to see. Service, however, was a little off. Our waitress seemed overwhelmed with too many tables, so things moved a bit slow. I ordered the taco salad and fried ice cream. The taco salad was decent, but not quite what I remembered. I was hoping for that signature ChiChi's dressing, and this one just didn't come close. The fried ice cream, though, was absolutely spot-on. The same crunchy warm coating and perfectly cold center--it was a trip down memory lane. Overall, they've got some work to do, but considering they just reopened a few weeks ago, I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt. If I'm back in town, I'd definitely stop in again to see how things have improved. Right now, it's more about the nostalgia than anything else, but I'm rooting for them.

    I used to dine at Chichi during my college days. Was so happy to hear about them opening up in Westend. This location has free parking ramp and heated underground parking. I met up with my coworker for a belated birthday dinner. Restaurant is easy to find. Reservations are recommended, they are busy. Big restaurant, one side is the bar, otherside is the dining area. I see lots of plants hanging in the ceiling. Free chips and salsa as soon as you sit down. I wasn't too hungry so I decided on the chicken flautas, food is delicious as I remembered.

    Christina K.

    The restaurant is large with lots of plants and high ceilings- good for big groups. Free chips and salsa- I thought the salsa was bland. The guac was amazing and unique. Mango gave it an extra special flavor. My husband enjoyed the beef enchiladas and I really liked that steak taco. I will be back.

We had ordered crispy calamari, steam mussels, lobster pappardelle, and chilean sea bass to share. Crispy calamari - cornmeal & parmesan crusted, buttermilk, harissa, nam pla, spicy mayo. This was crispy and delicious. The nam pla was like the Vietnamese fish sauce and was tasty. Steamed mussels - white wine, garlic butter were delicious. The bread was soft and the seasoning on the bread was really good. Dipped that in the nam pla sauce which made it a yummy combo too. Lobster pappardelle - brown butter, calabrian chili, basil flavors were delightful. Good chunks of lobsters mixed into the pasta. Chilean Sea Bass - ginger coconut sauce, sweet & sour cucumbers, kaiware. This was super delicious. I like the ginger coconut sauce over the sea bass. I wanted more. I'll be back for sure! The birthday dessert with light was fun to watch/experience! I wanted to give a shout out to our server Chris and all staff members giving us superb service! They always checked in to see if everything was ok or if anything else's was needed and thanked us. That's how you do service! AWESOME service Boketto team! Greatly appreciate it!
