Yelp.com Review - by Amanda Z.

5.0 of 5 stars. Seeking meatless fare on Good Friday, we came here for fish tacos...however, I ended up getting the special - spinach enchiladas. AMAZING. If this is the special while you are there, you simply have...

Yelp.com Review - by Jessica Y.

3.0 of 5 stars. Last week went to Chavas for the first time and was able to eat outside as it was a nice day out. The inside of the restaurant was dark so eating outside was definitely much more cheerful. Since I...

Yelp.com Review - by Paul M.

3.0 of 5 stars. Love the Jennas and the fish tacos. The beans are like nothing you've had at a Mexican restaurant, and unfortunately, I don't mean that in a good way. Not sure if the beans raise the overall price...

Yelp.com Review - by Jamie C.

3.0 of 5 stars. I have been to Chava's over a half dozen times. Right there that tells you something. Is it the best Mexican in the STL? A definitive and resounding NO. Okay, yes. Here is the rhyme to my reason....

No Big Deal

Not good. We both had the El Mireko (fried chicken burritos topped with chile con queso and guacamole, served with rice and beans). The burrito filling was dry and bland. Even the beans and rice were bland. I...

Good Mexican by Donna K. at InsiderPages

The fresh fruit margaritas are awesome (mango, strawberry, etc) because they hand blend th fruit in. Try the stuffed pablano peppers, you won't regret it!

Disappointed

Judging from some reviews, my wife and I went with high hopes. We keep looking for flavorful southwest Mexican food in StL. This is not it. The place has a cool atmosphere and that is a plus. But the wood...

Yelp.com Review - by lovesmyanimals l.

5.0 of 5 stars. I went here based on the recommendation of my trainer... I would not classify this place as Mexican, but more like Tex-Mex. Not sure if there is actually good "Mexican food" in Saint Louis. I have...

Yelp.com Review - by calvy m.

4.0 of 5 stars. With Chuy's closed down, I wanted a good Tex Mex style restaurant near by to visit. This place was great. It's similar to Chuy's in my opinion, but certain things make it slightly better. The...

Yelp.com Review - by Kelly B.

4.0 of 5 stars. Don't eat here (unless you're a Casa Gallardo fan), but if you want decent Chile con Queso (hot cheese dip) with chips and killer fresh fruit margaritas, you will be happy. Their fresh-fruit...

Yelp.com Review - by Jennifer H.

3.0 of 5 stars. I absolutely love Mexican food, so going into Chava's I was already thinking, "Of course I'm going to love this place." I was really sad when I didn't. I've been to Mexico on several occasions and...

4.0 of 5 stars. Chava's Mexican Restaurant is a nice change of pace when it comes to Mexican restaurants. What is this change of pace you might ask me? Well if you enjoy a nice meal and friendly quick service with...

5.0 of 5 stars. My favorite Mexican restaurant in St. Louis! Everything is great and the prices are very reasonable. My only complaint is that the bar is right by the non-smoking section so you can get a lot of...

Yelp.com Review - by Katie Z.

3.0 of 5 stars. First time I went, hated it. I don't eat meat, and the only thing I could eat on the menu seemed to be cheese filled anything (i.e. tacos, burritos, enchiladas) with nothing but hunks of partially...

Yelp.com Review - by Johnny B.

3.0 of 5 stars. Eh. Chips and salsa were good, but my deep fried chicken burritos covered in queso were not nearly as delicious as something that is deep fried and smothered in melted cheese should be. I would go...

Great Atmosphere--Lousy Mexican Food

This place had a great atmosphere and looked very promising, but the food left much to be desired. It was far from authentic, and the salsa was quite possibly the worst I've ever had--it was like they ran out...
