Whilst shopping in the Partick area, we popped into Bibis for lunch about 12.30, no booking made as we were just passing. Restaurant was very quiet with only 2 other customers in at the time. Went for the lunch menu for £15.95 for two courses. I had çhicken quesadillas, my daughter had jalapeño croquettes, both delicious, these were followed by chicken fajitas and enchiladas, fajitas not sizzling on arrival, however still very tasty and plentiful especially for lunch time.. has an alcohol licence, however opted for soft drinks. Food was great and very reasonable for the price. Would definitely be back and enjoy a Corona with my next meal... 👍

A brilliant Mexican restaurant at the end of the high street in Partick. Stunning food, I would highly recommend the Enchiladas and Shrimp Fajitas. Will 100% be back again.

Arrived 10 minutes early and was greeted with, "we're not ready for you, as we had a party in and need to clear up". We asked if we could take a seat in the corner, but were told no, but that we could sit outside or go along the road to Ga Gas's for a drink. It was raining lightly, so outside was not an option. We also didn't want to go across to Ga GA's, having just driven 40 minutes to get to our booking. The woman made us feel so unwelcome, that we decided to leave and go elsewhere for dinner. We won't return because of our reception.

Taken consideration to post this but went yesterday and feel I was over charged on the early bird menu, so asked the server and was told no it’s correct it’s went up 10% to what’s printed at the top of the menu…2 course £16.95. Told them yeah totally get that but 10% still didn’t make the bill correct. After going and checking she quickly returned to say it was the correct price for the early bird and that was the end of it. Wasn’t worth the effort trying to explain it all to the server who wasn’t quite getting it to be honest. Food was nice as always, but over charged £10+. Ordered 2 courses from the early bird £16.95 each, extra poppers £6.95, a side of Guac £1.65 - total £42.50 but charged £53.90 …still doesn’t make 10%. Basically from the receipt we’ve been charged two courses individually off the main menu and told the early bird deal was used. Disappointed by the brush off by staff that were nice enough and gave good service at the meal. Has been a regular eatery with great food so disappointed ☹️ by this.

We’ve been regulars to Bibi’s pretty much since it opened. Always warm, welcoming and the food delicious. Something has most definitely changed though. We gave it 3 visits just incase we were catching it on a bad night. Problems and confusion booking but more importantly the food is not as good. It is not as good quality as we were used to from Bibi’s. Dishes were simplified versions of ones we knew they used to serve, simple things like fajitas still had the uncooked powdery seasoning on them. The kitchen staff squeezing past tables to get out for a smoke wasn’t great and often you could clearly hear the loud chat from the kitchen. Can’t be easy to keep afloat after such hard times and given the great memories of this place I hope it bounces back to the legend it was.

First time visit and what a wonderful experience it was. Staff were friendly and food was delicious. We went for the three courser which came in at £18.45 before drinks, which we thought was great value. Decor is easy going. One minor gripe was when guests arrived after us they were offered a shot (not sure of what), but we hadn't been offered this. Will definitely visit again.

Used to absolutely love this place. Not any more. Food was terrible. Chef looked filthy. I don’t know if it’s new owners or what but everything that was great about this place has sadly gone, from the nice vibes, friendly service, food which felt quite authentically Mexican. Now just replaced with food that’s on a par with Mexican microwave meals you would get from the supermarket. This is the second time we’ve had this experience here. The first time we decided just to write it off as a bad day, since we used to love it so much, but second time was worse than the first. Sad demise.

We've been to Bibis often over the years. Our most recent visit was really disappointing. We arrived a little early, probably 8 mins or so and we're told they weren't ready for us (the restaurant was half full) and directed to wait outside in the cold. The table we sat at had a view right into the kitchen. The chefs spoke loudly the whole time we were there including a discussion about a bleeding wound that required stitches! Not what you want to hear while eating your meal. Our drinks were warm and the margaritas are not what they used to be. The waitress leaned over our table to light candles on a shelf above us while we were eating our main course. It was very awkward. The waitress and chef had a disagreement about who was passing by the tables in the very small space. Again very awkward right beside our table. The food was bland and far from the flavoursome Mexican tastes we'd experienced at Bibis in the past. No guacamole, tortilla chips or salsa with any courses. Every single plate that arrived had a handful of rocket on the plate as the side. The chicken in the chicken quesadillas was hard to find. The fish tacos had no flavour and the smallest piece of fish in each. It was so disappointing. Unfortunately, we won't be back.

This restaurant has been a firm favourite of mine for over a decade. I have raved about this place to friends and family, never having anything negative to say about it until now. We had a table booked for last night, on arrival we were notified that they could only accept cash. Our meal had been a Christmas gift so we had vouchers which wasn’t a big deal for us but can see how it might be an issue for some people (nothing on social media to advise cash only). We were seated at our table to our complimentary chips and dip, a nice touch that I have enjoyed on previous occasions with a complementary shot of margarita which I am guessing they no longer offer (cost of living maybe) We waited some 15 minutes before our drinks order being taken, another 5/10mins later our food order was taken at which time we advised no pulled pork and no cheesecake. Another table of two were seated next to us, their food order was taken at the same time and they were served their starters and mains in time with ours despite arriving some 20-30mins after us. The restaurant was busy, it always is but the service has always been great regardless. There was three waiting staff but only one seemed to be waiting the tables, one on drinks and the other I am not sure what they were doing. We struggled to get the staffs attention for another round of drinks, expecting a check back with the starter. Our mains were cleared and we waited for the desert menu, the table next to us were offered but they asked for the bill and left. Next thing my partner was handed the bill, I would have just left saying nothing but when he asked to see desert menu we were rudely advised the table was required back within 1hr 30 as they had back to back bookings. While I appreciate at the time of booking the 1 hr 30 was highlighted however I have never been unable to have three courses at this restaurant within this time frame. Maybe if the service had not been slow my partner and I would have been able to enjoy the three course meal we had planned. I cannot fault the meal, the food has always been great but the service was a major let down. Sad to say I won’t be hurrying back.

Good food and drinks, although slightly spoiled by the older waitress loudly asking another member of staff to count the cash we paid for the bill. Then proceeded to ask in an even louder tone if we'd like our 5p change back, despite the fact the bill already had a service charge added on. What is it you're looking for, a tip on top of tip?

I took my wife for a surprise birthday lunch. We have been before and the restuarant has a good reputation of understanding gluten. When I booked, I mentioned that my wife has coeliac disease. That information didn't seem to have reached the serving staff as we had to ask for the gluten free menu. There wasn't a gluten free menu but the server gave us a list of the items that were (or could be) gluten free Due to previous bad experiences my wife also checks when she orders and when the food arrives that what she is getting is gluten free. She was assured that it was. When I was paying the bill my wife asked the server how they managed to make a gluten free wrap into the shape for the chilli bowl. Oh, it's because it is a wheat wrap was the reply. Not sure what has happened, whether it is ownership or staff. But this is not a establishment that understands what gluten free means. Sadly my wife then suffered the consequences of their ignorance. I did ask for a response from management but they haven't had the courtesy to reply

I went for dinner here having reserved in advance. Between us we had the quesadilla and the cheesy jalapeno croquettes to start and we both went for chicken fajitas for mains. The food was pretty good but not spectacular, and the portions were quite small. This was the worst service I have ever had at a restaurant. I witnessed the front of house accost a gentleman who had sat down at a table, questioning whether he had just walked in and sat down. The gentleman not only had a reservation but he had been directed to that table by another member of staff less than a minute beforehand. We were given the dessert options and left by the front of house to think about the options before making a decision. After waiting at least 15 minutes for her to return to take our order we were presented with the bill, which we hadn't asked for. When we said we were waiting for someone to take our dessert order we were told they needed the table. I'd be surprised if I go back.

So very sad to see the decline in this Restaurant !!! I used to go on a regular basis but since moving out of the city I haven’t been for some time and was very excited to return . I very rarely negatively review but this was just particularly terrible . I had booked online and was informed by email that we had the table until 2030 from the get go it was very apparent that The waitress was clearly not interested and it became apparent that we were expected to eat and leave as soon as possible . The food was not very nice at all and the dessert was served on hot plates , when we asked for coffee we were informed that there was no milk ! Everything was extremely sloppy and was more like a fast food restaurant and the atmosphere was not comfortable at all . The final straw was when a couple arrived and the waitress told them loudly in front of us that this was there table and we would be going in two minutes !! This was at 1955 , we had expected to have the table for another 30 mins . Overall the experience was very unpleasant and I am sorry to say I will not be returning or recommended Bibis to anyone … very sad indeed .

This was one of the most awful places I have eaten at. The main reason was the attitude and sheer rudeness of the older waitress which made us all feel unwelcome and uncomfortable. When asking nicely to clarify certain things in the menu we were spoken to like idiots and there is only so much sarcasm you can take from a person. Also when ordering certain things from the menu it almost felt as if she wanted me to change my mind and made what I wanted sound disgusting. I have never been spoken to in such a rude way constantly by a waitress ever and even when clearing up the tables she was so disrespectful when asking me to hand her the plates. To top it off the food was rubbish too. The cheese croquettes were just mashed potato in breadcrumbs and the fajitas came luke warm and tasteless. Drinks were warm and we had to ask for ice several times to cool them down. We will never be returning to this place, mainly because of the attitude and disrespect shown to paying customers by this older waitress.

Really bland tasteless food. Didn’t taste like Mexican at all. Starter quesadillas pale undercooked tortillas with melted cheese and jalapeños, no salsa no guacamole, but weirdly had rocket. cheese and jalapeño croquettes, tasted weird and sweet. Fish tacos bland and tasteless. Quesadillas bland plain rice, no spice in enchiladas at all, tasted like canteen food or a ready meal. Worst Mexican I have been to, could have made better food myself. Also the chef constantly going outside the window to smoke and walking back and forward through the restaurant is very off putting. They really need to up their game if they want to compete with the many delicious restaurants in Partick. Wouldn’t go back.

Not enjoyable -Booked a table for 6.15pm for a birthday celebration for our daughter. Received email confirmation for that time stating we would be required to give up the table at 8.15pm. This we understood as we had booked an early sitting. Arrived at 6pm ahead of our daughter but table was ready and we were seated. Daughter arrived promptly at 6.15pm. Didn't order starters as we were looking forward to a main course and dessert. Service was slow but we didn't mind as we were catching up with our student daughter.At 7.20pm, just as we were finishing our mains, the woman managing the tables approached our table asking "When did it say you had the table til as I will need it back?" Unusual style of management I thought, and showed her the email confirming til 8.15pm as our allocated time. She managed the situation badly from that point onwards and instead of saying relax and enjoy the rest of your meal, she showed us her "system" which required the table back at 7.45pm.If service was efficient, we would have been able to enjoy desserts and be finished by then anyway. Daughter did choose a dessert and we were indeed finished by 7.45pm. However, the meal was spoiled by mismanagement of the situation. We won't be back because of this. We left and moved down the road to another restaurant where husband and I enjoyed desserts and we all had coffees in a much more relaxed and welcoming atmosphere.

Atmosphere shocking. Staff shocking. Food Shocking. Can’t really say anymore. This placed used to be very very good I’ll never be back. We were sat next to the kitchen and heard the words “let’s pummel this f@&king sh!t out I want away early”. Lovely

Posting this review and star due to a very unhappy dinner at bibis. I had a table of 17 booked for the 4th of March. i made sure to give plenty of time for the reservation and its was made on the 17th of February. I was made aware that there would be a table of 12 and a table of 5 which I can understand as its a small resteraunt. unfortunately on the 4th I was made aware 2 couples couldn't make it and called and made the resteraunt aware with plenty of time that it would now be a table of 13. I was fully expecting a full table for the 13 as they said there would be a large table anyway. Entered on the 4th and found that there was no large table and in fact hadn't even bothered to attempt to make sure we would all sit together. we were spilt between 2 tables back to back, we made staff aware that this is not what we were expecting and were unhappy about it. Staff gave us an apology blamed there "new booking system" and done literally nothing else to rectify the situation. Was extremly dissatisfied with this as it was for a couples birthday. The only saving grace is the food was extremely good but if your looking for a large booking I'd advise some where else.

Great little restaurant, first time there. Spicy Tomato Soup and Beef Chilli Burrito were very tasty. A hearty lunch. Definitely one to visit again.

This cute restaurant used to be the best Mexican in town. Now it's not full on a Saturday night... Not surprised. Frozen Margaritas have minimal flavour or alcohol, and the jug is tiny. Rip off. Food has completely changed: the amount of fish/meat etc you...

We visited Bibi’s Cantina on a Saturday night and left really disappointed. The starters were really average, we had the chicken quesadilla and the stuffed jalapeños. Nothing you wouldn’t be able to make at home. The mains were significantly large and fairly terrible. We had...

Paid £10 for the “super fries”. There wasn’t any guacamole so not sure how they’re charging a tenner for this. Tried to phone and complain but couldn’t find a number online.

Ordered takeaway from the Glasgow Hope Street branch last night. Not as we expected. Incomplete order, didn't receive churros and the nachos we ordered were tiny, no toppings and hadn't even had the cheese melted, nothing like the photos. The burritos were cold and missing half the filling. £30 wasted :(

Had a great time at Mezcal. We ordered both pulled pork loaded fries and chicken tingle burritos - both were delicious. Star of the meal was the frozen margaritas. Very tasty and will be sure to return.
