Fantastic! Food and staff terrific. Suggested share plates for the group which were amazing. Great location. Had cocktails on the rooftop before dinner. Nothing too much trouble and the food was delicious. We’ll be back :)

Service very poor. Waited 40 minutes for our order to be taken. Food was good but not worth the experience. Could see the waiter and kitchen staff doing shots while we were waiting for our mains. There was also a person in the kitchen, with gloves on, on her phone. Surely that defeats the purpose of wearing gloves.

Fun atmosphere. It’s a nice place for a date night or summer drinks with friends. The staff were attentive. The cocktails were really good and I’d recommend the fish taco.

Food was delicious but service was terrible. Booked a table 4 weeks ago via quandoo and was not given the option of where to sit (i.e outside or inside). It was cold and raining when we arrived, we were seated outside and told it was our fault for not booking a table inside. I understand that it is difficult to reseat a group of 4 people but it was the attitude of the staff towards us that was hard to get past.

Great atmosphere, food was yummy and our waitor was great. Up for some banter and gave good suggestions. Getting our food/drinks was a little slow but I think something happened with their computer systems and our order was missed. Rectified very fast was notified:)

Not enough staff on for the number of tables, food not the greatest assume this is due to number of orders being pumped into the kitchen at one time!

Food was tasty and arrived promptly. Drinks were cold and refreshing. Overall not bad but previous experience has confirmed that the service can do with some improvements

Nice casual atmosphere with friendly staff. Great selection of traditional mexican food and also a more modern selection of food choices. Full bar and outdoor dinning options available.

Ran out of Guacamole. Ran out of wine glasses. Ran out of ice. We had to wipe down our own seats that were wet from the rain. Not the best experience, but something to talk about...

Staff were very stressed and telling everyone about it. Not a great vibe due to this so we left. It’s christmas I understand but still need to keep their emotions to themselves

Great food ,(fish taco and pickled cactus were stand-outs), great service. A little noisy (empty bottles getting chucked into the bin as loudly as possible, clearly for the fun of it), but will go back & tell others.

Worst dinning experience, the rudest staff I've come across. They only had one decent waitress with commonsense and hospitality. Don't waste your time, it seems like they don't want customers in the restaurant anyway. Dine somewhere else.
