Overall Rating

Review


I've been back several times now. The food is good. Definitely not the best Mexican I've had, but it works when I don't want to cook. They have a shared fryer so the chips are not safe...and neither is the rice, as it is apparently also put in the fryer. I am alarmed that despite always saying I don't eat things from shared fryers, I've been served the rice several times without being told about the fact that it apparently takes a nice oil and gluten bath before it arrives on the plate. I am fairly certain last time was my last visit. Which is a shame, I really wanted to trust someone.

TL;DR - they have a shared fryer and things you might not expect to be fried are in fact fried. They may or may not bother to tell you, even if you are clear you don't eat from shared fryers. Be careful, ask questions, and avoid the rice and chips.
