Chilitos Taberna

Amazing experience, that really reminded us of Mexico! It didn't hurt that the weather was Mexico-appropriate as well. The food was authentic, the service was excellent, and the location itself was very Mexico Street food vibe! We had the street tacos, and every one was delicious and satisfying. The chips and pico was also excellent. Come and enjoy. You won't be disappointed.

We really enjoyed our meal at Chilitos Taberna tonight. We had grilled, and all three choices were a hit! Service was really good, but I felt a bit rushed. We were still chewing when one of the staff came to take our plate away, then it happened a 2nd and 3rd time I wondered if it was just common practice... anyhow I'd still go back and will go back and will be recommending it as a go-to Mexican restaurant for those who ask!

I’m not kidding when I say this is the best and the most authentic Mexican food I’ve had in Calgary. The flavour was different and not bland. The pico de gallo was fresh, along with the corn chips was The waitresses were so polite and kind. Tons of drinks to choose from, even a mocktail menu for the kids. Overall a 10/10 would recommend.

Best taco I’ve had in the states out Canada hands down nothing better!! Look at the size of the chunks of steak in photo! That should be industry standard!!

I don’t like giving negative reviews but this place needs some constructive criticism. My husband and I were really hungry and we chose to go for dinner. The environment was nice because we sat on the patio and it was a nice evening. I had no problem with the plastic colourful chairs because they were comfortable and just suited the environment. The food was edible but desperately lacking in flavour. We ate everything because we were super hungry but it wasn’t tasty. We ordered the Mexican fries to start and they were underwhelming. They seemed to be frozen fries from a bag that were deep fried with some ketchup, sour cream, and a very tiny bit of nacho cheese sauce drizzled over them. They would be so much better if they were fresh with some Mexican seasoning on them. I ordered the beef enchiladas and the red sauce was watery with very little flavour or heat. The beef was tender but It had no taste. It desperately needed some spices or a marinade. The rice tasted good but it was the tiniest little portion. The refried beans were fine. I ordered a virgin lime Margarita and it had a very strange taste to it. Kind of a floral perfume taste. My husband had been there before a few times and liked it but he was also very disappointed. He thinks the menu changed because it’s not how he remembered it. Hopefully my feedback doesn’t offend. I hope it can help make it better. The food just needs a lot more flavour.

Not bad, good location, large terrace tacos are regular regular restaurant go in for a bite

I had an overall decent experience at Chilitos. The service was great — the waitstaff were polite, attentive, and made us feel welcome throughout. However, when it came to the food, I was expecting a bit more. Don’t get me wrong everything tasted good, but just that: good. Nothing really stood out or made me feel like I’d come back craving a specific dish. I think the food could really shine with a little extra twist of flavor or creativity. There’s potential here, but it just fell a bit short of memorable for me.
