"Visited here with my partner in October First impressions were good ones, I’m a big fan of Mexican food and the menus looked as if they had a lot of choice and resonably priced, the restaurant was full with a decent atmosphere, usually a...good sign. Alarm bells started ringing when we ordered our main, calamari and an assortment of chips and dips. The calamari consisted of large, battered rings, clearly frozen (my guess is Iceland) and a mayonnaise. The chips and dips was a whole bag of cheap super market tortillas slopped on a dinner plate accompanied by shop bought hummus, sour cream and gauc. It’s a dark day when you enter a Mexican restaurant and they don’t even make their on guacamole….. even I make my own guacamole! However, we were hungry and ploughed through….. I’d like to point out at this point, I’m months pregnant and when it’s dinner time, I’ll eat anything. For mains we ordered the ginger and chilli tuna steaks which were served ‘turf and surf’ style. This means on its on griddle with a whole jar of what can only be described as uncle bens sauced shoved on top with peppers and onions. The tuna steak was extremely chewy and had a pungent smell. We couldn’t eat it. Praise the lord the the side of McCain’s oven cooked wedges which came with the dish (another whole dinner plates worth), for it was the safest thing to eat. Naturally after deciding enough was enough we asked to speak with the manager who was reluctant to help in anyway, very defensive over his frozen tuna and all in all, a bit dismissive. He did ask if he could get us anything else to eat, I’d rather raid the frozen aisle at my local Tesco thanks, and did offer us a drink on the house, to which we politely refused and asked for the bill. When we received this, the waitress announces proudly ‘here’s the bill, and we’ve given you a discount’ I pick up the paper with baited breath, what is it? Free drinks? Complimentary appetisers?? Nope! They’ve taken a whopping off our bill, which equates to approximately Bravo mariachi grill, bravo, i doth my cap to you in what I can only describe as the worst meal I’ve eaten out in a very long time."

"The burrito I ordered was more like a 3-star experience, but I can't blame Poncho 8 since I opted for the healthier, albeit less exciting, vegetarian choice with brown rice."

"On a difficult Thursday (still one day until the end of the week) myself and a number of colleagues decided to make an impromptu visit to Tortilla. I had been warned about the wavering standards but as a group we decided we would give it one more go (this was probably influenced by the close proximity of the establishment and the fact it was raining). On first glance I was pleasantly surprised that despite the weather the queue was a reasonable length. However, shortly after my arrival my experience went downhill. Little did I know but there was a severe bottle neck at the pay station which meant I had to communicate my order from a considerable distance away. Despite having to shout this was not the end hence me giving a rating of “poor”. I ordered a large burrito to get me through this difficult day and at the first station I boldly shouted my order for a large burrito with tomato rice. Maybe the person on the rice station took my raised voice as an indication of my love for rice. Unfortunately I don’t love rice it just helps to fill the burrito. The rice station employee dumped shovel after shovel of rice onto the burrito only giving me a 50% rice to other ingredient ratio. Next, slightly nervous I moved onto what should be the main ingredient of the burrito the meat. Again, here things went from worse to worse. The ration was excellent however, the chicken has all but lost it’s flavour. What is going on here? Are you not grilling the chicken anymore and boiling it? I shall say no more about the chicken as it was nothing compared to the employee on the spicy sauce station. This employee clearly took no pride in his work as he simply plopped the biggest blob of spicy sauce on the top of the burrito without spreading it. Therefore, when I took my first bite I was met with an explosion of spice bringing me to tears which I assume will return at my designated 4 o’clock 20 minute break. Fortunately the obscene amount of rice managed to calm the fire in my mouth after I took my 2nd third and 4th bite. All in all please sort you stuff out as I have been a loyal customer for a long period of time."
