We went on Sunday for lunch. The food was lovely, unfortunately the staff were not great. It started well, we had made a reservation and after we sat down the waitress took our order promptly. The food came out and then we didn't really see the waitress for ages again, no checking if we were ok. The plates were all finished with, our drinks were empty and we still waited ages and the waitress didn't appear. My sister went to the bar to order more drinks and ask for a dessert menu.

Found by chance and wasn’t disappointed, we didn’t book but only had to wait a few minutes for a table . Lovely warm and friendly welcome . Lovely inviting looking place .

I've been here several times and always enjoyed the food, especially the homemade nachos (proper fried tortillas rather than Doritos-style chips)! The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because on my must recent visit I was disappointed to see that cheese sauce is now used on the nachos, rather than melted cheese. Please change it back! Other than that, the food, drinks and service were great.

More information

Regulars often order two or three small plates to build a meal — the burritos are a crowd favourite and the vegan elote is frequently requested. The horchata-style mocktail is notably sweet by default; staff are happy to adjust it to your taste if you ask. Weekends fill up early and the bar rotates Latin-American beers, so early arrival or a reservation can help secure your preferred seating (couches and bar stools are popular).
