Feedback
Nestled in the heart of Edinburgh, this vibrant eatery offers a unique twist on traditional Mexican cuisine, featuring a dedicated vegan and gluten-free menu. Diners rave about the fresh guacamole, flavorful tacos, and innovative dishes like cactus and courgette filling. While the attentive service and lively atmosphere enhance the experience, some patrons have reported concerns with cross-contamination, particularly regarding allergies. The cocktails, particularly the spicy margaritas, have been met with enthusiastic praise. Overall, this restaurant provides a casual dining experience, perfect for both vegan enthusiasts and those seeking adventurous flavors. Just be cautious of spice levels!.
The food was amazing and there were plenty of great choices on the menu. The waiter was very attentive to my gluten-free dietary needs.
I have been a fan of Wahaca for many years! I have visited this location numerous times and it never fails to impress. The staff is highly knowledgeable and even have a manager take allergen orders at the table. All dishes are clearly marked with flags indicating whether they are gluten-free or allergen-friendly. While the kitchen is not entirely gluten-free and there is a possibility of contamination, I have dined here for years with no issues. They offer gluten-free tortilla chips as an alternative to the regular ones, which are fried in a shared fryer. The food is absolutely amazing!
I've been here before and everything was great. They advised they can't 100% prevent cross contamination but would do everything they can. Went along tonight and the manager was quite insistent about the cross contamination and she advised the kitchen don't use a separate grill for gf or she couldn't guarantee they'd wipe down prep areas before handing gf food.
Absolutely fantastic restaurant, 10/10 experience from start to finish! All staff are attentive and efficient, and service was super quick, big shout out to Jasmine. Food was spot on, everything was perfect, couldn't ask for a better meal! Definitely reccomend leaving room for dessert if you like tiramisu, it is spectacular!

We ate lunch around 12-1, no queue for a table but it started to fill up whilst we were there. The food was incredible like always, I would highly recommend the chicken quesadillas and sweet potato and feta dish. We had Jasmine as our server and she was very friendly and attentive. Would highly recommend, for either lunch or dinner as I've had both in Wahaca before.
