    The food at Red Farm is very tasty, but the portion sizes are small relative to the price of the menu items. Not terrible for sharing between two diners, but would not recommend sharing between more than that unless you're prepared to order multiples.

    The food was great to very good standards. All dishes were well cooked and quickly made and served hot. It is far from sensational because it lacks bold authentic flavours both on the Mexican and Peruvian side of the menus. The menus is small and well thought. Tacos are good but lack extra quick of bold flavour you would find in real Mexican restaurants. The place is nicely designated and clean. Waiters do change shifts without proper handover and forget about clients. We had one single espresso delivered in a small espresso cup with woman lipstick left on it. They seems to forget to wash caps properly and when told the answer was no worries but they managed not to put that espresso cost on the bill. Kudos to them but make sure you scan for hair, lipstick and other remnants of previous guests when you eat. Though it did not spoil our lunch at all. Value for money is good given it is Leister Square in the middle of tourist square where you would not find a hidden gem specialising in Mex and Peruvian dishes. If you ask me would you recommend it, only if you are a tourist dying for food and preferring a restaurant experience and McDonalds of KFC located on the same square. But I would like to thank the chef for good menu and food. For in hotel dining it is good. But waiters should be check cups and plates before serving them if the chef cannot control it.
