Chile Verde Cafe - Columbus

We moved a year ago to columbus, we were originally from new mexico and in the sky we found this totally authentic new Mexican food. Wife had a navajo taco and I had to get a taste of everything to confirm that it was authenticity, so I had an enchilada, tamale and chile relleno and both the Chile sauce and salsa were on site waiting they staff was great, restaurant clean and totally good quality! found are place to go!

This is my favorite Mexican restaurant in the city. we've been here for years. all people are pleasant, real and great to interact with. the last time a new court discovered, the stew. great.

Super good! Husband is Celiac and doesn't have any issues. My kids even ate the heck out of their soft tacos. Online ordering is super easy. House margaritas are awesome. My only complaint is everything comes in large single use plastic containers.

I don't leave reviews really ever but this place deserves it and so much more! My family and I were astonished with how exceptional the service and food was, especially because of the situation. We didn't realize what time they closed until we arrived, which was 20 minutes before they were closing. So we decide to just take our order to go upon arrival. The owner himself had greeted us when we walked in and after we said we wanted to take it to go due to how close it was to closing, he vehemently insisted we experience their food for the first time while dining in (he learned it was our first time there). So we agree, and as soon as we were seated, a very friendly waitress (cannot remember her name but she was a bubbly Latina with hair pulled back into a bun and had bangs) came up to us and despite the timing, was extremely hospitable and welcoming. We were even given a complimentary sample of their meats and sauces which we weren't even expecting. My parents loved every bit of it and were reminiscing the entire time about their days back in New Mexico and how similar the food was to what they were used to when they lived in New Mexico. Once we ordered, the food came out very quickly and tasted phenomenal. The owner came by to check on us and talk a little more about the background of the restaurant before we left. Between their hospitality and quality of the food, we unanimously agreed this was beyond the best experience we have ever had at any restaurant ever. Thank you guys for being so kind and for bringing amazing cuisine to Columbus! I am absolutely telling everybody about this place and hope my review helps many others to go have the same amazing experience we had!

We decided to come here today after reading some of the most recent reviews and Chile Verde did not disappoint!! Warm welcome from the owner, who informed our server that it was our first time there. She brought over some really tasty salsa and fresh chips and then brought us a sampler of all of their signature sauces and meats so we could understand their flavours before we chose our meal..... Long story short, excellent service, excellent, fresh food, fantastic vibe, obviously popular (we arrived at 4.45 and by 6pm there was a line out the door! . Do yourself a favor and try this simply wonderful local gem!
