I was there in a huge group of people for uni trip and got chicken burger for dinner. It was not good. It was really dry and bland. Not enough sauce on it at all I had to dipped my burger in ketchup just to make it more moist. It was basically unseasoned cooked chicken breast on buns with fresh tomato and lettuce. And I had Dulce de Leche Churros for dessert. It was nice, fresh warm and crispy and the sauce tasted really nice. The staffs who were taking care of us were super nice tho.

Lovely food at decent prices. Only marked down on atmosphere as it was extremely quiet on a Tuesday lunchtime. Staff are friendly, efficient and unobtrusive.

I couldn’t recommend Las Iguanas more!! It was fairly busy but got a table straight away after getting turned away from 2 other places. Staff were amazing!! Three girls working none stop and did an amazing job. Drinks came on time, food was amazing! we left feeling full and looked up. Couldn’t recommend more!

Lovely staff greeted me when I walked in with no booking. It was still early but they were gearing up for a busy night and squeezed me in. It was an exciting menu with lots of things I might like to try. I love Mexican so went for vegetarian chimmichanga. Normally I would have gone for the meat but wanted to try something a bit different. Staff were on hand to advise if required and suggested a nice cocktail. The food came quickly, but as I started eating I must say it was a little bland for my taste. I did consider adding salt which I very rarely do. It was perfectly well cooked and once I got a bit of salsa it tickled my taste buds a bit more. Maybe the beans and rice need a bit more flavour? Anyway it was a lovely meal and the server Rima was fantastic. It didn't cost the earth either considering I am not used to eating out in Edinburgh City centre. I would definitely go back so I could try some of the other dishes.

On a hen night - 13 of us. We were sat downstairs.... no atmosphere, very dark. We pre ordered food & still had to wait an hour. 2 meals were cold/buns still frozen! They did replace them & deduct from the bill. Also gave us a free drink. Tables that had been vacated weren't cleared for a while which gave a bad impression too. Have been to other Las Iguanas & was satisfied with service etc but not at this one. If I visit Edinburgh again, this won't be on my list to visit again!! Oh & we had to ask for the service charge to be deducted...... we wasn't going to pay £28 for 'service' we didn't get. The server was fine but the whole experience wasn't good.

We ordered a taco plate with 12 tacos. We actually only got 10 taco shells. After I told the service guy about it, he brought us a few more shells. When we got the bill, I noticed that they maid us pay the missing shells 1,50 pounds. That’s fraud.

Lovely spot to spend time with family and friends. Food is a plain mix of some South American countries, but NOT great. Beef fillet on skewers (most expensive dish) was dry and tasteless. How does one serve rice and fries with it and nothing refreshing on the side? My wife's mixed grill fajitas was nothing but a stir fry of tough meat, prawns and chicken. Decor and ambience is great, but food disappointing. Caperinhas are great though.

Disappointed, silly of us to give Las Iguanas a second chance. Will not be back. Freezing cold, dour staff. We ordered two drinks and they got them both wrong. I ordered a chicken fajita - presentation poor and it was so spicy it was inedible, filling a tasteless mush with hardly any chicken pulled and spread out like a paste, one flour tortilla lying on an unappealing sludge of cold black beans. Friend ordered the burger with halloumi - thinking t was a meat burger and cheese topping. Nope just a slab of halloumi, tomato top with the core in. Overpriced and extremely underwhelming experience. So bad we barely stayed 45mins. Try anywhere else.

Let me start by saying the food was good, the service equally satisfactory. The perks also made the visit good value for money. However, I very much resent when a service charge is automatically added to the bill, and I also know that other restaurants do this. Should it be necessary to withhold a tip it would be embarrassing to ask for this to be removed. Also, if there is a tip sharing system, why should Johnny 'no stars' get the same as those who did the hard work? I think tips should be discretionary and be between you and your server. One other complaint. The Mexican lager wasn't advertised as a 330ml bottle. I assumed it would be a pint (price indicated as much). Please make it obvious when it's a small bottle of lager. I will visit again, but I'd hope that the company will take these points into consideration.
