“Good service. Lots of tables when I arrived on a Thursday night. Limited choice of beer on tap. Food was generous portion and promptly served. Felt a little too pre-prepared rather than made to order. Small pots looked like they were out of a packet (guacamole etc.). Large portion of chicken. Very tasty. Overall decent but would be better if it felt more hand-made.”

“I've been to a few Mexicans and this is better than many but I'd be lying if I gave it 5 stars across the board as atmosphere was hard to score but it was a Tuesday night. Ribs were awesome, Nachos pretty good also, Fajitas were not as …”

“Visited on Friday, 10th October 2025, for a birthday meal approx. 10 years since our first and only previous visit. Booked online and arrived with a party of 7. Food was great. Service was so-so as it appears quite young/inexperienced wait staff who spent quite a bit of time chatting amongst themselves. Would go again as the atmosphere is good and a fun birthday dessert option.”
