ICO in Wakefield

Had a live singer, He was great. The staff are very friendly making sure they catered to allergies & special requests, venue is lovely good size booths & tables

Lovely service. Really nice food. Spotlessly clean place.

Everything about this was perfect for our event. We chose bottomless fiesta which they were more than generous with the amount and variety of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. Food was excellent and adhered to dietaryrequirements. All staff very accommodating and friendly. Highly recommend.

Great little new restraunt in Wakefield! Food was so tasty with generous portions and Margarita's were perfect!

Generous portions, great service and good atmosphere. Would definitely recommend 👌

Great place to go for authentic food Have a night out here and see I'm telling the truth

Qubana not Ico. Food was sub par for this venue. ( Stuff happens,I guess) (Even the Steak on £43 meat platter was over cooked). Sadly. Jambalaya was nice. Waiting staff not as good as normal ( middle of the week blues?) Recommended regardless. Good atmosphere. Authentic decor. Nice setting for quiet meals & rowdy party celebrations ( As long as you're not on neighbouring tables - #obvs!). Never feel rushed or stressed here... Kudos !

Excellent food!! Brilliant service!!

Great place to go, food very good. Beware when they say hot it really is, beware the chicken wings. Really enjoyed the meal, small and cosy. Different and worth a visit. Another great place in Wakefield to try out.

Went for birthday meal, absolutely fantastic food, service spot on.

A very fine location. Like the waiter said ,,this place looks like another country'', but i happy it's here. Congratulation!

Discovered this place today! Was brilliant loved the whole atmosphere of the venue, having to go down in a lift to get to the seating area was a great touch, also passing and speaking to the chef was different The bottomless brunch we had was amazing value for money and the food was delicious! Staff were really friendly and inviting Will definitely be going again!

Overall very good, churros was frozen not authentic but the food overall was good , moneys worth for 35 quid bottomless!

Interesting experience in the basement vault of Qubana. It's a small and intimate space. You enter the restaurant via a small lift, and there are some tight corners, so not accessible for mobility scooters or wheelchair users. Service was lovely and friendly, very helpful. A wide choice of Mexican food, including a good kids menu with choice for those who don't like spicy food. I'm gluten free and there was plenty of choice for me. We'll definitely be going back!

Small restaurant located downstairs in the vault, smarty decorated with a fun atmosphere. Prompt service from friendly staff. Food tasted great but all our portions were too small, which made it a touch expensive.

Really enjoyed bottomless brunch here, strange way to get to the restaurant but is a lovely space once in. The food was great but a bit spicy for some, drinks were tasty but not strong

I am writing to give feedback to our booking on the 15th December at the ICO restaurant. Firstly I would congratulate the restaurant on how easy it is to book a table at the restaurant online. Unfortunately this is where the positive feedback ends. Arriving on Wood Street we entered the "restaurant" by the door underneath the ico sign. However this turned out to be a back entrance and not welcoming at all! Staff by the door just looked at us. We then walked to the front desk and asked about our booking for 7:15pm. We were told to wait while the table was cleared even though it was 7:15 and asked to buy a drink at the bar even though there was a big queue. A couple of minutes later we were directed to a table for three but were informed that we would be next to a big Christmas party that was due. We were given the menus and it was at this point I realised we had been seated in the Qubana restaurant. I then went back to the front desk and was informed that we automatically booked into Qubana as Ico isn't open on a Thursday!!! It appears that the booking system isn't as great as I initially thought. We were offered a bottle of wine as compensation which I refused. I had specially booked the restaurant for my wife's birthday and she wanted Mexican food and wasn't drinking so the bottled wine wouldn't really help. We instead went to the Mexican across the road and had a wonderful meal! I hope that they correct the booking systems so this doesn't happen in future.

The drinks and chips were lovely, everything else seemed to be supermarket bought and bland. I could have made something better at home to be honest. Compared to other Mexican restaurants I’ve been to, ICO was very underwhelming with the hype around it. We paid £60 for a below average meal

Absolutely loved it! The food was amazing, the atmosphere was great, lovely staff. Would highly recommend 🌮🇲🇽😊

First visit last night won't be the last. Lovely hidden gem 💎 Beautiful venue. Staff so friendly, the front of house showed us to our table and made sure we knew we was in the old banks vault made it more of a experience me and my husband really enjoyed. The waiters very efficient and polite. Food nice and reasonably priced. Live music on upstairs and cocktails finished off a lovely meal. Thank you

Top and tail of it we paid £20 a head for 10 people on the sharing platter so they fill your table with food and you all share it. 10 people had to share starters for 8 people, 10 people had to share 8 tacos and there was 2 types of tacos but both had 8,10 people had to share 8 fajitas. Now I’m not been funny but when 10 people are paying £20 a head then it’s simple maths, each person should get 1 of each or your just ripping people off. There’s no excuse in saying we should have asked for more, no we was paying £20 a head for 10 people there should have been enough food for 10 people not 8. Plus drinks on top our bill would have been above £300. We won’t be returning, we really did feel let down and called at McDonald’s on the way home.

The place itself is great, splendidly decked out and very much looking the part. It was really cool going into the basement (which I believe is an old bank vault) and entering into a cosy, but not cramped mini bar and restaurant. The service was excellent and the lady (Britney) who served us was lovely. However, the reason I can't recommend this place, was the food. We love Mexican food, so we ordered loads, so that we could take some home. But really wished we hadn't! We mainly went for a selection of Tacos. All I can say is that I have never eaten such dry and tasteless food before. It honestly felt like we'd been given left overs from the night before. There was nothing Mexican tasting about it at all. No seasoning no spice and worst of all, no moisture! Also, take a look at my photo for what they tried to pass off as 'loaded' Nachos and see if you can spot any toppings at all. It just looked like they had poured a bag of Doritos into a metal tray! We would have complained, but as mentioned, the staff were so nice, that we couldn't bring ourselves to. I'm not sure if were just incredibly unlucky, as other Google reviews are 5 stars. But either way, I simply cannot recommend this place based on our experience and unfortunately, we won't be returning. Such a shame, as it's a great, little venue.

We have been here a couple of times now and have been really impressed by the food, service, and decor. Very enjoyable

First visit but won't be our last - lovely food, great service and reasonable prices. Would recommend the cauliflower tacos and quesadillas 😍

Really great little place, worth a visit for the music alone. Great cocktails and food and good price. The duck was dry in the taco, but that was just a slight niggle. Overall it's a really great venue, already planning my next visit.

Hidden gem. Lovely food. Excellent service and very reasonably priced. I would definitely recommend the tacos for a light meal. The Baja Fish Taco was delicious.

We had a great time here, thanks!

Delicious food, superb service and a great chilled vibe!

Fabulous food, loved the Belly Pork and Chorizo Kimchi. Service was excellent, nothing was too much trouble, brilliant cocktails. Loved it!

A great addition to Wakefield’s burgeoning restaurant scene. BIG Shout Outs to Beth, Jake & C/Karl. Wonderful atmosphere and service. Thank You 😊😊
