    The food was amazing but the service was so slow with both food and drinks. It was a busy Saturday though. I would return as the food was absolutely gorgeous and the staff were very friendly. Just took a long time for food and drinks to be brought down after ordering

    I've eaten here several times and have noticed the service when you're seated downstairs is poor compared to when you're upstairs. It took 30 minutes to even put in an order for drinks, I had to pop upstairs to have someone come to our table. Food took almost an hour after ordering to come out too (no starters, just mains). I understand it's a busy time of year of course but the waiting time was excessive. My friend asked for salt for his food when it did arrive and he was told "there's already salt on your chips". The food was good but the service issues put a dampener on the experience.

    Drinks and food were good but service was not good, side orders missing and wrong orders brought down. Had to ask for cutlery and had drinks delivered down to the table that we did not order. Decor needs an overhaul as the seats have huge holes in the covers exposing the sponge inside. Not worth the money you pay.

    Great convenient location, the ambience is nice and the cocktails looked good, the servers were all very pleasant and trying their best. The food was average and felt like had been left for a long time under a heat lamp . There was a mistake with our order and also with the table next to us. The server had written everything down correctly so there was a communication mishap with the kitchen. Nothing major and the issues were resolved - felt like maybe just a bad night. Overall we enjoyed the meal.

    Food was so good. Margs were even better! Small place but if you’re craving Mexican in Dublin after pints, this is the place to go.

    I’m not sure this is a real Mexican restaurant. I had very managed expectations, especially after the reviews, but I asked for the queso that was on the menu and received a tub of weird sour cream. I could keep going, but I’ll leave it there. Very convenient location and pretty lighting.
