"My wife was treated at UCLH for a RARE cancer and whilst she was being treated there, we visited this amazing authentic Mexican restaurant. On Valentines day we revisited the hospital to donate the money raised from the charity I set up in her honour. This was my Valentines gift to my soulmate. I had to re book whilst being in London, so the only place I could go was this amazing restaurant. I can not tell you how special it was for me and my beautiful daughter to sit there enjoy the unbelievable food, the truly loving atmosphere, and remember my time there with my late wife. Daniel the owners son was touched and felt our journey. What a true gentleman. He is a credit to his parents and the restaurant. I will 100% be back when I am next in London. Thank you all for such a special evening."

"Went in November to the Café. Wasn’t particularly busy, I’d guess there to be 50 people spread over about 10 tables? So why on earth we had to wait so long for anything is beyond me. It took 20, yes, 20 minutes to get the bill. A small piece of paper which details what you purchased and how much it costs. 20 minutes. The staff obviously knew their service was poor, they gave the dear lady a free Mojito which is excellent by the way. The guest IPA was Punk IPA. The menu was about 10 pages. Of which 1 page is the food, and no real direction to it what is a starter, a main, a dessert? I appreciate its Tapas but it doesn’t really explain. We had 3 plates, the Squid was beautiful. We had Pork as well as truffle enchiladas. I loved it, the wife didn’t. All in all, I wouldn’t come back unless service was drastically improved."

"went for a family dinner, table for 8 people, shown on our table, drinks order done, explains that there are tapas-style menu and the differences between the street eating, classic and great young. drinks were excellent (usually cocktails, how eating, very fast, all orders were correct (with a mixture of vegetarian and meat eaters in the group must say the younger one.)"

"For our starter, we received three small pots of homemade sauces and some oily tortillas. The tacos were bland. Since we don’t eat meat, we opted for the sweet potato tacos with feta cheese, which were decent thanks to the flavors of the sweet potato and cheese. However, we wanted variety and ordered a different option next time: black bean tacos with cheese. Unfortunately, they were dry and underwhelming. The saving grace was the salty insistent on avocado—though it was just a piece with a fried egg, and still lacked flavor. The deep-fried fish taco was the only one I enjoyed. Sadly, all the taco tortillas were soggy, cold, and fell apart easily, served with awkward, raw-looking garnishes. The staff seemed disorganized, and to top it off, there was a 12.5% service charge added to our bill. I paid it but left feeling dissatisfied. I won’t be returning or recommending this place to anyone."

"The food is delicious, the staff is friendly, and the service is quick. I especially enjoy their cocktails, especially during happy hour ;) My only complaint is the uncomfortable sofas."

"Just WOW, what a find! Our friends took us, they go regularly and we understand why. The food was out of this world. it's a New Mexican, NOT a Mexican restaurant that is run by a husband and wife team who cook everything from scratch. Amazing value for money and a truly authentic meal. We will definitely be going again. One word of advice this place needs booking well in advance Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5"

"It was a wonderful place to eat. The staff were kind, welcoming, attentive, knowledgable and clearly very hard working. The food was great and am really looking forward to coming back in the future. The only tiny tiny negative was that with the Waterloo cheese there wasn’t very much bread. But this really is a very minor detail. A great place to eat."

"in this flowering restaurant after a recommendation of a friend. had booked a table, maybe had to wait 5 minutes when the place was so busy, no problem with it. the waiting staff was pleasant and my milk incompatibility was filled with a smile and a resurrection. we ordered 3 plates according to recommended along with a few margheritas, in any case the caramelized ananas margherita and apple can recommend. one of our party courts did not arrive, but when we pointed out, it was offered to come out directly or take it out of the bill. she was full so we just canceled it. in any case a place for a fun atmosphere to go with friends. will definitely be back."

"I thought that the exacution was good The crab bone marrow was decent- could have used some salsa verde and Avocado mousse. I do enjoy a fresh Masa..... This would have made the tacos stand out a bit ... Lot of Labor That went into the prep, place and cooking would have shined a bit more.... You were recommended by a serious player at Broken Spanish Oui Chef Right On Brother"

"My wife and I have been regular goers to Maegden since it was the wee caravan next to the Giants Causeway. We travel down from Belfast at least once a month for a grilled cheese and bonfire hot chocolate! Now it is in Bushmill 's it 's even better providing seating and selling local produce from across the Island. The girls who run it are absolute Angel 's and so, so friendly and talkative. Impossible to describe to folk just how good a toastie can be, but trust me, it 's well worth the hours travel and paying a few quid. Their bonfire hot chocolate isn 't overly sweet nor does it have that artificial taste you would get from the likes of Costa/Starbucks. The marshmallow fluff they use on top is made by themselves and torched perfectly. It 's 09.40am and my belly is now rumbling for a Maegden!!!! Side note: their candied jalepenos are to die for! An absolute 10/10 I recommend it to everyone!"

"I dined there with my wife and baby, and the staff were incredibly friendly. The food was amazing! The vegetarian option, chickpea tacos, was out of this world. For dinner, we spent around £20-30 per person. I would rate the food a perfect 5, the service a perfect 5, and the atmosphere a perfect 5 as well. I highly recommend the churros and the chicken tinga."

"I went into Manchester with my Daughter to eat yesterday without pre booking anywhere and we found ourselves struggling to get into the place we wanted to eat in due to long waiting times for tables. So we ventured into the murky backstreets of the Northern Quarter around Thomas Street with its overpriced bars. I've always been aware of hidden out of the way places to eat and drink and suggested we tske a stroll down Back Turner St. Which is dark and dirty but it does not reflect on the little places that are there. EL TAQUERO with its pavement level neon signs and a cook in his apron taking a break from his routine drew my attention. A small street level Authentic Mexican restaurant with welcoming staff. I said I know its not what we'd had in mind (we like Japanese Vietnamese food) but at 8pm on a Friday evening we knew that was not going to happen and we were hungry. I asked the waiter on the steps if they had a table for two he took us inside and there were about 10 tables and only 2 empty tables for two. We made our minds up to be adventurous and it was a fantastic gamble. Not being a fan of Natchos or those other crispy messy tacos etc. We were given a table by a Mexican waitress who was incredibly helpful and guided me through a menu of things I'd never even heard of. To get into the wonderful laid back atmosphere I ordered drinks to set the mood, my daughter just had water she was driving, while I ordered a bottled beer called Day of the Dead I.P.A. 6.8% it was excellent but I also had a shot of 1800 Reserva Reposado Tequila not fiery smooth warming. Food: we ordered 2 Camrejo Concha Suave Grandes these are soft crab tortillas served with pieces of cactus cooked with the crab and thinly sliced red raw cabbage and a other greens with shredded carrot. I was amazed that this whole soft crab was so delicious which the waitress explained they were put on the menu as a special for one week and regulars begged for them to be on the main menu ! we also ordered Camerones Baja two fat battered prawns on small flat tortillas with a sprinkling of raw vegetables served with 3 small dips of different tomatoes flavours one being made from red, green black tomatoes, stunning stuff ! Also ordered Chrizo Con Nopales on tiny flat breads which were mixed with cheese and very filling. We voided Guacamole Crema off the bill so we could end with hot churros with melted dark chocolate and coconut ice cream. I think £43 and a £5 tip for a fantastic waitress who gave us her undivided attention was a steal, for what we were introduced to, from a very extensive menu which was heavenly. Will I return....you bet xx"

"We had a confirmed reservation for six people on Saturday, December 8th, but upon arrival, we found the restaurant closed for the evening. It was incredibly frustrating, especially since we had made our booking in advance. I don't understand why restaurants can't ensure they are operating when they confirm reservations. Thank you, Cindy Lopez"
