They catered our office lunch and the food was out of this world. I have never had such good salsa. The chicken taco was the best.

This has become my go to place when in the Columbus area. It is food like none else. I wish I lived closer. Every time I have been there the food has been excellent, plus the owner or manager has walked out and engaged me and other customers. Well worth checking out.

Fell in love with the original location on Bethel & Sawmill 20+ years ago. First time in town in years to see family and tell them we are expecting. They treated us to a surprise visit to this location, knowing I never shut up about Chile Verde. Seeing familiar faces & the owner still working his tail off during a crazy dinner rush makes me love this place even more, if that's possible, the food is still amazing the drinks are still amazing, the hospitality is beyond expectations, what a great time in the hands of one of my favorite restaurants in columbus, truly thank you for all your hard work and dedication it stands out amongst other places, best Margaritas best food best hospitality & atmosphere. To continue to be on top after all these years is a testament to you and your staff. What a gem, thank you as always, you're stuck with me!

Incredibly kind staff from the host to our waiter, John! It was our first time there and he was patient and personable. Never rushed us. The food was amazing! I created my own bowl and my husband got the fajitas. Not to mention their salsa was kind of chunky which I love. Can’t wait to go back!

You cant go wrong with Chile Verde - always enjoy the delish food here. I think they could add more vegetarian options though.

Food is amazing love going here and would eat rings around myself. But the hours are constantly changing one week its open till 9pm then 7:30pm then 8pm at one point it was 8:30pm too, so when deciding to eat out during the week you never know when its going to be closed so its hard to time getting there.

So, they do not prepare their food locally, it is pre made, delivered and assembled by them. They do make the sauces and simple stuff (rice, beans etc). I feel dupped and very disappointed.This was our go to restaurant, and above discovered due to a food accident (now broken tooth due to a bone fragment in my dish - thank you).
This is a great place - we have been going to the original location for 20+ years. We now live out in the Polaris area and we thoroughly enjoy the food - and the new patio is also a great spot for a meal when the weather cooperates. Give it a try, and if you like some heat, try the Anasazi sauce!

So delicious, I forgot to take photos but I was impressed. Will be adding to my Taco Tuesday rotation. You can tell it’s been recently renovated. The vibe is great! Feels like Arizona, kind of a Native Dessert Vibe with Turquoise accents. It was cold so we sat inside but the patio looks very nice and would be a great place to come in the spring/summer to enjoy.They have pretty good Mezcal Margaritas. I ordered the crab boules which had a sweet jalapeño cocktail sauce. I shared the Albuquerque Platter with my boyfriend, which was plenty. We even left with some leftovers that might not make it through the night. The platter had some of the best chorizo I’ve had in a while, with chicken and shrimp smothered in queso with pico. The rice was also really good.

This restaurant is one of the best in Columbus. The food is absolutely amazing, the service is always on point and the price of what you get when you order is excellent. Not to mention the food always tastes great. The owner is also hands on and makes sure everything is right and that service runs smoothly. Love this place, definitely check it out if you're in the area!P.S. - the seasonal margaritas are great!Parking: Lots of spaces, especially around dinner time as the other businesses around the restaurant close, which leaves more parking.Wheelchair accessibility: Ground floor and tables optionally accessible for those in wheelchairs.
