That was so good. Big portions, and bold but subtle flavours. I had the lamb shank with cinnamon sweet potatoe purée, my wife the chicken fajitas. Both were terrific - nice cocktails too. this is probably my favorite restaurant in Plymouth now.

We were in a hurry to eat before watching a film that we had booked. The weather was terrible but we had a combination of great food and excellent service. Thanks to all the front of house staff and the chef for providing a great experience. We will definitely return...
&we have-another fabulous meal delivered within a great atmosphere

I have been twice with my partner. Both times we have thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The food is delicious with large portions and the staff are very friendly. Callum, Ella and Naomi served us on our most recent visit and were all lovely. We have been recommending this place to all of our friends.

Excellent food, huge portions and some nice cocktails. Let down by the speed of the service, which is unacceptable at times. I'm hoping this is just because of covid related staff issues as apart from that it's a great dining/drinking experience.

Came here for dinner and it was amazing, the food was so tasty with buckets of flavour. The staff were very welcoming and attentive. It's a hidden gem in Plymouth, would definitely recommend

The atmosphere, music, service, and above all food were just incredible. It's classic Latin food recreated as lovingly and accurately as one can with ingredients available in the UK by a clearly dedicated, talented, chef.
Front of house was also fantastic, I couldn't fault him if I tried. Definite must try. Give them a go!

Excellent experience. Came in for the lunch menu and wish I saved room for dessert now.
Must say it was the best Mexican food I’ve ever had in my life. Chicken wings fell off the bone!!
Fantastic service from the bartender/waiter. We throughly enjoyed the service and would definitely come back next time we’re in Plymouth.

This place is new in Plymouth and we stumbled across it whilst trying to find somewhere to go for dinner now that the lockdown had eased. The cocktails, the menu, the atmosphere, the hosting - it was all on point. It's firmly flown uo the list of places for repeat visits.
The service was excellent - timely, no waiting, not pushy, it had humour and conversation.
Will definitely be going back again. And again. And again.
