We started with the nachos, which were essentially a thin layer of lightly topped heated chips for ten pounds. There wasn't enough guacamole, salsa, or sour cream to share. The chimichanga was tasty but not very spicy, and it didn't leave a lasting impression. Overall, we have no desire to return anytime soon.

Off a reservation request went, and within a very short space of time, Clare responded. After arriving, and my wife not having a clue where we were going, we entered the premises, and oddly enough, were greeted by Clare, who confirmed our booking. It is at this point, that we knew I had picked the right place, as Clare wished my wife a happy birthday. The place was small, intimate, and very busy with a lovely atmosphere. Staff were very accommodating, and nothing was too much trouble. Service was extremely efficient, and the food was to die for, and was very well presented. Drinks were lovely, even the special Gin mix that Clare made for my wife. This is what you go out for. After the meal, my wife went to the ladies room, and Clare came to see me and told me she had a surprise for my wife, for which I knew nothing about. When my wife came back, she was adorned with a sombrero with a sparkler in, and given a shot to drink, Spontaneously, the restaurant broke into a chorus of Happy Birthday which made the night. If you are wanting somewhere to eat in Durham, then this place is an absolute must, but just don 't tell everyone. We will certainly return for another helping.
