Gorgeous decor and food! They take a modern approach to Mexican food, and we loved it! Taco options all come served on a flour tortilla, corn tortilla or lettuce leaf for the healthy ones. Group favourite was definitely the Grilled Corn with cilantro crema, lime and paprika – be prepared to get messy! And the Bonita Nachos with habanero jam was incredible (the empty bowl photo is to prove it!). Very loud so if you are not into that kind of atmosphere forget it. They are open 7 days from 5pm and don’t forget to visit the Bon Bon Tequila Bar next door.
Husband FE (Fussy Eater): FE loved the nachos – some of the food was too spicy for his liking but generally the flavours were great. 7/10
16yr old VFE (Very Fussy Eater): Liked some of the food – loved the nachos but still would prefer “normal” Mex food! 6/10
Me FOF (Finder of Food): I loved it and will be back. Delicious sangria and the corn was my overall favourite. Perfectly cooked and just enough spice. 9/10
Value: Very good – drinks are not cheap but they are yummy. They do have specials on certain days (Taco Tuesdays) so have a look at their fb page for more info.
Service: Good service – not overly friendly but they were very busy.
Verdict: Great for groups – lots of atmosphere and great share food.
