The BEST Mexican I have found in St Pete!! (And I am Mexican!) nothing like fresh, made to order, classic dishes with a HOME MADE feel to them. Hits the spot every time, soooo delicious & satisfying. I also love the relaxing and cozy ambiance. And the owner is a very kind person who gives great service! This place is a GEM in St Pete, HIGHLY RECOMMEND! And check out the new location in Clearwater! read more

I should have known when there was no prices on the menu board. I spent $23.00 for 6 tacos that were half of the size of a (major fast food company's ) tacos. They tasted alright but the $3.00 apiece price kinda turned my stomach. The staff was friendly and the inside of the place really looked like something you'd see out west (which was really cool). I had high hopes for this place maybe better luck next time. read more

Finally tried chile verde and was not disappointed!!! Very authentic, no frills taco spot. Order at the counter and sit. Grab a drink (so many to choose from!!!) - they have a wall of fridges with alcoholic and non alcoholic options. They bring you your food, and then go back up to the counter to pay! I got shrimp tacos and omg. Best ive had in a while. Super reasonably priced as well. Can't wait to go back!! read more

Annoyingly unsatisfying. Maybe it's because I'm from LA and spoiled by an absurd range of incredible Mexican food--from celeb hotspots to the little hole-in-the-wall joints I actually prefer--but I genuinely expected better. I ordered the chimichanga, normally my go-to comfort dish. What I got instead was a dry, thick, flavorless giant spring roll impersonating a chimichanga. If I hadn't been starving, I would've tapped out after the first bite. Honestly, the best part of the meal was the Coca-Cola and my favorite tamarind candy. Service was friendly, no complaints there, but the food just didn't deliver. Unless I'm super hungover and desperate, I don't think I'll be back. read more

My family and I come here a lot. This has become our favorite spot after soccer games and the kids love it too. The workers and the owner are so sweet! They even opened up the other side which is a grocery store. I've ordered plenty of items on the menu because I love trying new things and the pictures are very tempting. My favorite orders have to be the steak quesadilla, the steak taco salad, and the tostadas. The kids love the steak nachos and burrito and the younger kids love the flautas. Honestly, anything you get here will be good! Also try their agua frescas! read more

Our first time here and ordered for takeout. The food overall was delicious however, the queso was a bit watery and lacked flavor and the taco meat was a little dry. We did get extra sauces so it helped. The prices were decent, not too expensive for everything we got. We will definitely eat here again, but try different menu items. read more

I went here and ordered one bean burrito and two taco tacos with chicken. The bean burrito was swimming and some kind of soup and the taco tacos were cilantro onion and dried out chicken.

great authentic Mexican food! very clean and fast. Highly recommend & Will be back in the future!

Great tacos at a no-frills restaurant and food store. If you want quality Mexican tacos in st Pete, this is the place. I've also found the horchata and agua frescas to be better than most other taquerias I have tried. read more

Skip this place at all cost! The food area is a total mess, it just looks nasty! I had two dry and tasteless tamales for 6.50 and the guy gives me 2 bucks back from a 10. So he can't even do simple math. I don't even think he put the money in the register. The time before which was last year in the summer I had the birria tacos and they weren't edible because they had some hard substance in it that seemed like bone particle which I almost chipped my tooth. From that experience I told myself I'll never go back again, but I said to myself how bad could tamales be? AWFUL!!!! . read more

It's so awesome that we can get fresh pozole, butter chicken (with authentic spices) and chicharron for breakfast!! We forgot to stop by La Teresita after a red eye so we popped in here instead. Very tasty. read more

I've heard about how amazing this restaurant is for years. I finally try it. Did I go to a different restaurant? The menu is listed on a board hung up behind an unused serving table. There is also a serving table with some unidentified things in sauces, but it doesn't appear that we choose from that. The menu is in Spanish and English, but nothing is clear on how it's prepared or what sides and sauces come with it. I settle on my go-to, cheese enchiladas and a pork tamale. After having the tip jar shoved across the counter at me when I paid with a card, I receive a paper plate with a giant gob of slightly melted cheese embedded with corn tortillas and covered with wilted shredded lettuce. I ask for salsa. There is none. There are 2 sauces on the table in squirt bottles. Green and red. The Tamale is not horrible. Just dry. The staff did not seem to speak English--not necessarily a bad thing, but they also didn't want to try to understand my high school Spanish. Very disappointing. read more

Best chorizo in town. I've had their tacos and breakfast burritos and both are delicious. Everytime I am in the area I have to stop in. Carnes asada is also good. It's an order at register and sit and eat type establishment. Workers are very kind. Taco Tuesday $2 tacos. Great deal. read more

We ordered the torta (wayyyy too much bread, barely any meat), Gordita (deceptively small compared to menu photo) and a quesadilla (the best thing we ordered). Overall, it was average food and average experience. The staff did bring the food out quickly despite a line or orders so that was nice. Plenty of seating inside. If you're looking for great Mexican food, this is unlikely to be your place. But it's okay if you need to stop for a quick bite. read more

Chile Verde - Mexican Near Me - Saint Petersburg, Florida

Service was great the inside very was kind of cafeteria seating slash convenience store. Were there for the food, we went kind of late so I believe that what we did get was food that was cooked earlier in the day and had been sitting out. They just reheated it up on the flat iron grill. I got the pork Verde fajitas and my lady got the barbacoa tacos too fatty for her, mine just had that taste that it had been sitting too long but like I said it was late at night so we will go back earlier in the day next time. I'm not opposed to giving them another chance but if they blow it then well I'll be gosh darn read more

Chile Verde - Park Verde fajitas on the right barbacoa or tacos at the top - Mexican Near Me - Saint Petersburg, Florida

Boldly on the corner of 28th St N and 22 Av N, this bright multicolored building stirs your curiosity before even entering the doors. With a old style dining room surrounded by murals it really sets an authentic Mexican vibe. Service was great as I am bilingual but may have been difficult for those that cannot speak Spanish. Nevertheless, the food came out promptly and with a smile. We ordered 3 items, the Tortas, Gorditas, and Quesadillas. The Gorditas came out astonishingly small (less than the size of my palm) and the flavor of all these items were underwhelming. While a cute atmosphere, the food can best be described as "mid", there was no wow factor present and quite honestly the restaurant didn't seem busy enough to even use that as an excuse. The food itself was quite affordable so if you're looking for a quick and cheap bite this could be a place for you! read more

I love this place SO MUCH! I went an entire year ago and I've been wanting to go back ever since. I live across the bridge so it's not exactly a hop & a skip away. Yesterday I was the area and wanted tacos so I knew there was not other place I wanted to go to other than Chile Verde. Being that it was over a year ago since I let went I couldn't remember the name or address of the place but the taste and smell of the tacos was still very vivid in my mind. So I did some research and to my delight I found the place and the address and it wasn't that far from where I was so of course I stopped by. I ordered 10 tacos for myself and my family. I ordered 4 Carne asada (my fave) three Pastor and three Carnitas. I dug in before even taking a picture that's how excited I was! I initially ordered them to go but I couldn't stand the thought of having to wait even longer to indulge so I unpacked my whole family and we all sat inside and ate. From there time I ordered I felt very welcome and like they were really happy to have me there. I went on a Saturday early afternoon so it wasn't busy at all. There's parking right outside the doors so we were able to early park and walk right in. The owners were there and were super accommodating to me my family which includes three young kids. My girls which normally only like chicken nuggets and fries tore these tacos up! I'm so glad I found this place again and I already can't wait to go back to St Pete to have some more! read more

Some very good and authentic Mexican food. I will now compare everywhere else with this place. Very in assuming place in an old gas station. Order at the counter, help yourself to a drink and wait for the yumminess! I got the burrito panzon with chorizo. Awesome! Great chorizo flavor and fresh veggies. Huge so great value for the price. Careful of the red sauce on the table. It is hot! A very good place with nice people and great food!! We will be back. read more

An old convenience gas station transformed in to a fast food type Mexican restaurant/store. You walk in and order. Food is ready in approximately 10 minutes. I ordered the Carnitas burrito Panzon (my guy had the chicken burrito panzon and said it was best he ever had). The carnitas was luke warm, the rice was cold. Didn't see any beans, no sour cream, but the tiny container of salsa Verde was delish. Know it's made from scratch because I saw two cases of beautiful tomatillos being delivered while sitting outside at one of the dilapidated tables. Huge flow of working folks going in and out so it appears that it is a popular spot for lunch. I've read the rave reviews and wonder what happened the day we stopped in. Staff was friendly My main concern is that the food is not being held at the proper temperature. read more

I can't believe I haven't stopped in here till now! It's no frills, but a clean and comfortable place to get some of the best Mexican food in the St. Pete area. There is a variety of meats to choose for and then you get it into the dish you want - tacos, burritos, enchiladas, chimichangas, etc. You can get food to eat there or to take away. We grabbed food to eat there (enchilada and chimichanga) and then got a 1/2 dozen tamales to go. We'll definitely be back and next time, I'll probably customize mine a bit - e.g. no cilantro or sour cream. read more

If you are like me and have driven past this place time and time again... seriously you need to just go inside already! I did not know what I've been missing out on. There is a large (dimension-wise) menu hung up that lists meats and the different 'vessels' if you will-- tacos, burritos, quesadilla etc. I appreciate options of different proteins and an a la carte style that encouraged me to try different tacos. The restaurant is also very clean with a good amount of tables (booths and chairs) inside. I was impressed by the service because the man taking my order was very pleasant and the staff preparing the food was QUICK. It was just a few minutes before my food came out. I ordered 4 mexican style tacos-- ranked, starting with my favorite: 1. lengua (cow tongue), 2. chorizo (sausage), 3. borrego (lamb), 4. asada (beef). The lengua was really great, but all were tasty. I was glad they came with enough ripe limes too. Sauces were alright. I spent $10.66 tonight. Don't wait to try this place! In my experience, it's super fast, convenient, delicious, and full of options and good restaurant staff. read more

We drive by all the time, and have been so curious. Well we were visiting Home Depot at lunch and left so hungry so we finally stopped in. This place isn't fancy, but it is fabulous. We ordered mexican tacos, a chimichanga and a quesadilla mexican style...loved it all. As a Houstonian with a love for Mexian food, I tend to be picky about GOOD Mexican...this is so good! Everything tasted so fresh. The cilantro was the perfect addition on all of it! The baby approved it too! There's a hot bar too if you want something quick. Since I pass this place on the way home from work, it's going to be hard to note stop in all the time!!! Oh! We ordered the verde sauce, because of course, but my wimpy mouth couldn't handle it. I could tell it was fabulous, but definitely spicy! Guys, one more trip. Please, please order Mexican style!! A great First Taste Friday meal, can't wait for another Friday treat! read more

Ill start this review off by saying I am from San Diego, for those who don't know it is home of the best Mexican food in the world. I have spent a ton of time trying to find a solid Mexican restaurant and have had success here and there. Mostly its a different style here in Florida with the black beans and rice. Chile Verde has done a fantastic job with their Floutas and tacos. All of the food here is made fresh and over all just amazing food. I came here the other day as I usually do and just had to post and rant about this burrito. The carne asada was amazing (very good chicken too) the rice and beans were proportioned perfectly almost has a hint of sweetness. Soo good! The hot sauce and salsa are the best I've had around this area and would highly recommend. Service was fast and very friendly 100% Delicioso!!! read more

Chile Verde - Carne Asada Buritto - Mexican Near Me - Saint Petersburg, Florida

Came here for dinner. DO NOT order queso here, it's not queso. It is identical to the kind you get at a stadium, maybe even worse. It was also cold. My boyfriend and I got the flautas, smaller than hoped for. They tasted mid, had to add lots of salsa for it to have any flavor. Tasted like it had been sitting out a little too long. The horchata lacked flavor as well. Pricing was way too high for what you get, was almost $40 for the bad food, one beer and one horchata. Don't recommend. The only good thing I have to say was the service was great! Friendly workers and they get your food out quickly which is nice. read more

food is good but for a bottle of coke cola they charge 5 dollars per bottle i'll never buy another drink in there so the prices are getting out of control from stores to restaurants. read more

My all time favorite local authentic Mexican taco place!! I'd be lying if I didn't say that in the past I have eaten here every single day for a week straight, YES it's that good and I am not ashamed to say it. STAFF/SERVICE: Many times when I go, the owner ( I believe) is there. He is very nice (even though his English is not the greatest ;) and he always tries to crack a few jokes with me. FOOD: The best authentic Mexican tacos in town, don't even bother with the American tacos! The Mexican is where it's at!! Literally everything here is good, the taco salad, the tostadas, EVERYTHING!!! VENUE: Nothing fancy...This store use to serve as a gas station too until they decided to focus on their food and lose the gas. They still have beers, sodas, and other miscellaneous items that a gas station would have but I only go for the food (surprise surprise). Please I'm not asking you, I'm TELLING YOU to go try it out! Like yesterday!! You'll love it!! read more

Authentic? Maybe, I've only been to Mexico once so I couldn't say. Is the food good? It's actually great! Portions align with people who are looking to 'go to town' and fall into a sleep coma. I generally don't get Mexican food since most of it is the same ingredients presented differently, maybe with slight differences. But every so often you just need that in your life. Get the red hot sauce if you can tolerate fucking-spicy. Yummy food, fast service, great price. Chile Verde will satisfy you on every possible way. read more
