"Looks better than it is. Ambient is very summary, great art work on the walls, multi-coloured chairs. Soft lighting, light spanish/ mecxican music in the background. Also an open kitchen towards the back, so you can see them cook. Ordered a variety of dishes including: Nachos for 2, smoked chicken enchiladas, Jalapeño poppers, Chicken fajitas, Wild mushroom Quasedias and a vegetarian Chimichanga. Food ordered was either too salty, bland or just average. Basic touches you expect from a Mexican restaurant, let them down. For example, when ordering a sizzling fajita dish, firstly it didnt sizzle, secondly all the side dips were not there salsa, guacamole etc as were put into one bowl, minus the guacamole as you have to buy that separate for 7.95! Extortionate! The side rice ordered with the Chiminchanga, was either stale or cooked really early in the day and so had a weird texture. The Mushroom Quasedia, Nachos were really salty. One thing I was really disappointed about was the salsa they provided with all the dishes was Chipotle base sauce. This was quite strong, very smoky notes that is not for everyone. Should have given a choice if that was wanted. The cocktails were nice, no complaints there. The toilets were ok, with the women's one not clean. The staff were ok, majority were fine but one particular person was guessing, the manager was as miserable as they come. It took forever for them to come when required. So overall, an average experience. Not what I was expecting."
