Staff was nice but we weren’t given our entree and had to ask again for our sides we had ordered. Also things labelled gluten free on menu are not safe for celiacs so would not recommend for celiacs.

Food is tasty but service and drinks were very slow. We finished our starter before our drinks arrived (15+ mins) so didn’t bother ordering a second round before our tacos (which were tasty). Tacos can be gluten free and a few other options.

I notice people rarely review good experiences because so many people expect it, but people are quick to complain online if a hair is out of line. So here are some kinds words to the staff that served my partner and I tonight. I came in near close with my partner for a takeaway dinner and the lovely staff were friendly, and efficient in serving us while others were tidying and restocking. Its clean with a nice layout and atmosphere if you decide to dine in. The staff were knowledgeable on what my options were given my gluten-free dietary restrictions, and the portions are large with good value for money. My partner’s burrito was so full she struggled to wrap it up! Great service and really fresh and tasty food. Thank you for looking after us :)

Been coming here for almost 3 years. Love the staff , love the food. Been getting pork nachos and it is always filling and flavorsome I recommend this to everyone. Went to mexacali which was bland and dry. Never going to stray away from here again. Bailey, Will, Hamish and Ty are so welcoming, energetic and provide amazing customer service Being gluten free they are able to adapt to my needs while still providing a great experience!!

This place deserves more than 5 star. Apart from the confusion on how to order this place is seriously THE BEST we ordered 5 different flavoured soft shell tacos, it was hard to pick the best because they are all sooo tasty and FULL flavour, my fav was the mince then pork then chicken. My bottomless pit boyfriend ordered the macho burrito for lunch and I didn't have to cook him dinner, it was massive! This place has a menu and also is set up like a subway, so quick and you get to choose what goes in. Also gluten free friendly
