Extremely pleasantly surprised with the quality of food at Dirties. We went in with low expectations due to the exterior and the fact that it was super empty inside (it was 4pm on a Sunday evening and we are use to everywhere still being busy in London, so expected the same from restaurants on the beach just an hour away). It was practically empty apart from another one table being full. We sat outside in the back courtyard and had the place to yourself, it was lovely.
After about 20 minutes of changing my mind about the menu, I opted for the Soft Tacos, specifically the 3 x Fried Buttermilk Chicken with Donkey Mayo, Red/Green chillies and cilantro leaves, and they were exceptional. It filled me perfectly as I wasn't extremely hungry, so I would say order this and a side if you are looking for something a bit bigger as it's pretty light, but definitely worth it!
Would definitely go back if I was looking for a lighter option in Whistable.
Exactly what this town needed! Gorgeous, fresh, bright Mexican food in a beautifully preserved historic building. The wait staff were so kind and attentive, the Mexican beer is awesome and the burritos are HUGE!! Had a wonderful time.
Had a great night Saturday at Dirties starting with friendly welcoming staff & lovely margarita cocktails. The Mexican Street food theme works really well so it’s very atmospheric. We loved the menus sharing platters so each of us enjoyed lots of different choices. Ticks all the boxes - great food, great service & vibrant atmosphere, will definitely be returning soon!
