Im not one to leave reviews but I was so delighted eating at Rafa’s today after seeing it online. I’m from Florida and have found it hard to find authentic good Mexican food in Glasgow but Rafa’s hits the spot. Will definitely be back and will become a staple for us!!
We had the Carney Asada and Chorizo tacos, and our minds were blown away. Extremely tasty and hot sauce compliments the tacos very nicely.
But then we had the king prawn tacos and the nachos. The king prawns missed some acidity, and had a bit too much batter. The cheese on the nachos was the liquid
Lovely little hatch down a hidden alleyway serving incredible tacos and burritos. Great flavours that pack a punch and you can get messy with. A real gem of Glasgow.
Follow your nose down the little alley to find some yummy tacos. Carnitas tacos had that juicy fatty vibe that is so good. Miss the crispy bits common to other versions but very tender. Get an extra napkin! Chorizo were also good but a bit looser than I usually see. But great flavor. Just messy.
Hidden gem in Glasgow's West End.
I had the Barbacoa taco, Fish taco and Carne Asada taco. My partner had a chorizo quesadilla. Food was fantastic. By far the best tacos in Glasgow.
They have a varied selection of Jarritos Mexican sodas very good.
Staff were also very friendly and welcoming. For
Post SWG3 experience:
My girlfriend and I went to SWG3 last weekend to try out Rafa's at the pop up event, however, we were thoroughly unimpressed. We put up a negative review and received a swift reply from a manager at Rafa's. To our surprise we received a voucher to try out Rafa's again, but this
I went to a Rafa’s pop-up at SWG3 and the food was some of the best Mexican I’ve ever tried.
The flavours and quality were just excellent - it’s got me really excited to visit actual Rafa’s!
The birria tacos were the best of the lot - that smoky dipping sauce was something else. Just everything wa
First time trying Rafa’s and to be honest, we are thoroughly unimpressed and disappointed. Despite the raving reviews, we found the food to be cold, dry and completely overpriced. The idea of a pop up kitchen in SWG3 was good in theory, but we felt like this backfired.
Even though we are unsatisfied
Great hidden gem. Best tacos in Glasgow for an affordable price. They also have weekly limited time special dishes which are often delicious experimental combinations which you won't get anywhere else. Been here 3 times in last 2 weeks I've ordered tacos, quesadilla, and burrito. All of them impre
YUM oh my, please please get the surf and turf taco, out of this world. Other stars were fish taco, the pickley cabbage was fab, and the queso (make sure to ask for chorizo added to it). Vibes are so nice I don’t think I’ve ever heard a live banjo player before ❤️
Best tacos in Glasgow! It’s a tiny little place off Finnieston road - the seating is very limited, especially if it’s raining. So be prepared to either wait or just grab it for takeaway. The highlights of the menu are the fish tacos and the chicken burritos.
The best tacos i’ve ever had!
Fish & king prawn tacos are amazing, definitely try those🌮
Also the nachos are loaded with guac, salsa, queso and sour cream and are delicious.
Don’t forget to try their hot sauce, it will make everything even better:)
As a mexican that loves his food I can say that this was authentically mexican and delicious. Probably the best in the UK. The people is really welcoming and now I see why the place is always so crowded. Recommended and I’ll defo be back.
We loved this place and as Americans living in Europe we rarely get to say that about Mexican food. I thought the grilled chicken nachos were the best I have ever had, no kidding, the chicken was just amazing. The tortilla chips were fresh cooked in house, hard enough to find in Europe, but these
If you're on the hunt for an authentic Mexican culinary experience in the heart of Glasgow, look no further than Rafa's Diner. Nestled in the bustling streets, this hidden gem is a haven for taco enthusiasts and lovers of mouthwatering flavors. Prepare yourself for a taste sensation that will transp
Best tacos I've ever tasted. Pulled pork with blue corn tacos. Absolutely stunning flavours. Get a mango soft drink too. Burritos are jam packed with every flavour you expect and more.
Delicious!! 10 out of 10. Rafa's would hold its own in the Mission in San Francisco.
My husband is Mexican-American, while I grew up in Southern and Northern California with a grandmother in Tempe, Arizona. We both agreed this is a totally legit Mexican place -- something that is in short supply
Great Tacos and flavours served in a cool of the beat location
