About The Chile Pod

The Chile Pod is a restaurant that offers New Mexican food and has a great atmosphere with cool art on the walls.

The food is a highlight, with the green hatch chile sauce, New Mexican burger, and Chili Rellenos being specifically mentioned as standouts.

The Chile Pod is highly recommended for those who love Mexican food, particularly the Chili Rellenos. Recently, the chile relleno was called the best, and the food was described as fantastic and superb. The restaurant has also been praised for catering events, where the food was delicious and the service was excellent. It is considered a great local spot, with the green chile often thought to be better than red, and the outdoor seating enjoyed by many.

Customers also enjoy the jalapeno poppers, and the restaurant’s atmosphere combines friendly service with artistic decor. Visitors have especially enjoyed the green chile and red chile, with some traveling specifically to try the Xmas chile, which was described as fantastic. The salsa is also highly praised, often so good that customers plan to return for carry-out. Many find the food better than in nearby cities, and the portions are generous. The food is described as outstanding, and the owner’s award-winning chili adds to the restaurant’s reputation. Overall, The Chile Pod offers a delightful experience with flavorful dishes, friendly service, and a welcoming atmosphere.

We read reviews and gave it a try. Not at all what we expected. The fajitas were bland . The veggies weren't cooked right. The rice was in a mold and probably sat for awhile(dry). The Margarita was good but little. $11 for a Margarita in a whiskey glass. Do better
One of the best businesses to grace downtown Farmington! Wonderful food and great service. 10/10 would recommend
Amazing food, the service was phenomenal. It was a great environment for a date night.
