    Nice decor Super noisy, could not hear yourself think, needed to shout to have a conversation between us. The rest of the patrons mostly a young crowd seemed very happy with this. Difficult to get the attention of the waiter to place the order & and to get attention during the meal. Maybe they had too many people to serve. Saying that all the staff were super friendly and very pleasant. Margaritas! Ordered the classic best-description is flabby.. Food , A brave commitment to blandness, with only a light cameo from coriander. I don’t think it even gets into the.Tex Mex category . There were a few roast veg variations , not tried, but no beans, a staple of Mexican food, we did order a side of black beans which were about half a cup in quantity, another tasteless offering floating in a brown sludge, also asked for chilli which was eventually planted on the table again about half a cup of diced pickled jalapeños. I apologised to my friends as I had chosen the restaurant.
