Chiquito

I entered this restaurant expecting to be disappointed and hating it. It’s a chain, it’s in Croydon and it was full of kids.
However, it far surpassed my expectations! We were seated pretty quickly even though it was a busy Saturday night, we had an EXCELLENT waitress who made very good recommendations, really understood what we wanted and provided exactly the right things. I tried chimichangas for the first time, and my goodness they are too good. I daren’t ever eat them again, but wow did I enjoy those ones!
The only downside, the one star that they they lose is for the loos. I only visited them at the end of the meal, which is lucky, for had I gone at the begining, I would not have stayed. They are pretty gross.
So, go — but use the cinema loos next door! :-)

so disappointing. stale nachos with watery salsa, the smallest potato skins i’ve ever seen (5 pounds!!!) and wet tostadas that sat limply on the plate … starter from hell. main course of tacos came with stale taco shells, wet limp lettuce and frozen cheese — nice … luckily we got to wash down with the most chemical tasting virgin strawberry daquiri and lemonade this side of chernobyl. how is this place still open? avoid!
