Xiquita Restaurante y Bar Reviews
Awful and overpriced food from a racist chef that supports criminals.
I had the duck taco and it was delicious and I also had their Mexican chocolate ice cream. it was so good. my husband had a Cornish hen in a mole sauce and it was delicious. we definitely enjoyed The ambiance as well.
Xiquita says it’s as much about the people as the food… and I believe it! The menu, the service and overall ambience of the restaurant work in perfect synchronicity with one another.
The food does not disappoint. The Hoja Santa, a “sacred leaf” stuffed with queso fresco and a side of sautéd mushrooms, was a highlight but all the food was fantastic. On this night we also had Castacan (delicious slow roasted pork belly), Tamal Oaxaqueno and Taco Des Pescado.

Xiquita Restaurante y Bar provides a memorable dining experience with its beautiful stemware, traditional colorful clay mugs, and delicious Platos, Masa, and Postre. The restaurant's vibe is cool, featuring unique wall art and a relaxed atmosphere. The menu offers a variety of flavors, with many items being gluten-free, and pays attention to presentation. The drinks are special, with options like the tomatillo margarita, champurrado old fashion, and tobala mezcalito served in traditional jicaras. Guests often praise the ceviche, homemade tortillas, and chips, which are considered show stoppers. The food is consistently good, with many dishes like tamal de pato, albóndigas, and fish receiving high praise for their authentic flavors and delicious sauces. The restaurant also has a lovely patio area that adds to the overall experience. Despite occasional service issues, the attentive staff try their best, and the food keeps guests coming back for more. Xiquita is a must-visit spot for those who enjoy exceptional ethnic food and expanding their palate.
