    A beautifully decorated, warm and welcoming cantina, excellent service from our server Dylan and very good food to boot. Special mention to the Birrias, Key Lime Pie and Churros. Outstanding tequila & mezcal offerings.

    We had an incredible experience at Chingadas! The atmosphere was electric, and the food was truly sensational. Our service was excellent, and the dishes that stood out included the fish and pork tacos, which were absolutely delicious. The Mexican street corn was a highlight - it's a must-try! The only downside was the Springboks game not going our way, but that didn't detract from our amazing meal. Highly recommend!

    The food was okay. I wasn't blown away but the ambiance made up for that. Would have liked if the margeritas came in jugs that would have been more affordable. The service was good no complaints there. All in all a good experience.

    Beautiful decor, food very average. My beef burrito was pretty tasteless and had something hard in it I kept biting into. Not great value at R165. Mexican food should be fresh in flavour, a little bit spicy and very tasty. It wasn’t any of these things.
