Mexico 70 in Sunderland

La comida era deliciosa, aunque un poco más caro para el tamaño de las porciones. El personal era muy amable y ofrecía un gran servicio.

Tacos were well made but they weren't vibrant in flavour and guacamole was bland - as in it just tasted of mashed avocado. Could be my palate as I could see they were decently well made visually, but I found it seriously underwhelming. Hate to say it, as Mexican is my favourite cuisine, but I'll not be going back.

Esta fue mi segunda visita, la primera vez que vine fue antes de que el lugar cerrara y luego re-abriera. La primera vez la comida era absolutamente delicioso y llegó rápidamente. También había una gran variedad de cócteles disponibles. Desafortunadamente en esta segunda visita la calidad de la comida fue bastante decepcionante y el cóctel de granada que comí era más como manzana Robinsons y jugo de blackcurrent (que está bien, pero no es lo que pagué y esperaba de una cucaracha sin alcohol. Tenía muchas ganas de volver a visitar el lugar, pero me temo que no volveré ya que la calidad de la comida no reflejaba el costo y simplemente no era sabroso. Diré que el personal de camareros era absolutamente encantador, eficiente y amable.

Best Mexican food in Britain imho. Would be considered excellent in the USA. I've never been to Mexico to know sadly. Fantastic.

Some of the best tacos I've had in the UK. Particularly recommended the Korean pork tacos, the aubergine tacos, and the crispy squid tacos. Margueritas also great. Nice atmosphere. Come here.

If I could give the food with this place 0 stars, I would. The service was fine and the place was fine (once you get in and sit down after going through what feels like the wrong entrance to an alcove garage/garden). But the food. My god. This is the worst restaurant I've ever been to in my life and I was so surprised as my partner and I were genuinely excited to eat there. We were there less than 30 minutes as I couldn't eat any of the tacos given to me and my partner begrudgingly ate some of his (if he doesn't eat it or like it then you know it's bad). They are "known for" their soft tortilla taco shells....I thought that was a good thing when I ordered but now I'll know them for a weird taste that I don't find edible. The only thing I could eat were the generous bowl of fries - they were fine (you are put off eating them after the awful food but you do anyway.) So, if you're on a diet, craving "Mexican" food. Eat here and you'll be put off food all together (if you can actually eat any) - you're welcome! Good service though - just the food that majorly lets them down.

So glad we have this back in Sunderland! Food is amazing and new, but with some old favourites still on the menu. The soft shell crab taco is beautiful and the Marmite mushrooms are the most umami flavour that hits right. One of the best things are the drinks with the Mezcal Marg being my ultimate favourite, the best place in town for tequila and mezcal by a mile!

Food was delicious 😋. Definitely going back to try the other dishes.

I was the first time we had been there and certainly won’t be the last food was amazing great atmosphere, very good service , we had other great food , belly pork , Teriyaki beef amongst other tasty food delicious

First visit since it reopened. Loved it. Food lovely, as was the service. Will be back soon

The food was disappointing. It took three attempts at cooking tortilla chips properly. The seitan was terrible. The cocktails were overpriced for what they were. It didn't have a very good vibe either. I would not recommend or return.

Food and drinks were lovely staff were brilliant.

Such a cozy atmosphere, on a lovely street, food is tasty and being served as tapas means you can try loads of different things and they are all fantastically presented. Slightly on the expensive side, but a fantastic local business worth supporting 🩷

I thought I’d missed my chance to go here but I’m glad it’s reopened. - Nice margaritas - Grilled peach and mozzarella salad was an absolute treat - I would have preferred a thinner slice/smaller chunk of fish in the ceviche - the tacos felt light on toppings. The meat was cooked well. The miso duck leg was my favourite, but none of the tacos blew me away. All in all, a bit meh, but a good option for the area.

Mis amigos y yo estábamos muy contentos de escuchar que este restaurante había reabierto y no podíamos esperar a volver. Desafortunadamente nos fuimos decepcionados - solo puedo esperar que esto sea un problema de dentición, ya que creo que está bajo nueva propiedad. Lo positivo es que las margaritas siguen siendo las mejores que he probado. La comida estaba bien, pero tuvimos que esperar demasiado tiempo para algunos de los platos pequeños para ser sacados. La camarera explicó que los platos se servirían como se preparan, lo cual está bien, pero no entiendo por qué tuvimos una espera tan larga entre conseguir los mismos platos, por ejemplo, pedimos 4 tacos de carne - 3 llegaron juntos, pero el 4 llegó 10 minutos después. Lo mismo con 2 lados de brócoli - de hecho cancelamos 2 platos que tardaron demasiado en llegar. También había un problema con los inodoros que no tenían papel higiénico. Realmente espero que el nuevo propietario logre volver a encarrilar las cosas ya que esto solía ser una joya de un restaurante.

Visited today for a birthday meal for the first time since the reopening. An extensive new menu provided plenty options that were not available before, plenty of which being tasty too. Between the 3 of us we had: the steak, squid, cod, pork, thai rib, fried chicken, and crab tacos, as well as the standard fries which we each got a portion of. Overall, the food was pretty good, one or two of the tacos lacks a little bit of flavour, namely the fried chicken and cod ones, but they were mostly very tasty. The service too was nothing short of exemplary, with each of the workers going above and beyond to help, especially with one of us having dietary restrictions. I recommend, and would visit again.

Lovely food and great service, the guy who served us was super friendly and didn’t rush us! Opposite the theatre so great place to eat pre/post theatre

Cool Mexican tapas place with ok food. I feel like the idea of the place is better than the execution. It’s lovely inside with a good atmosphere, but the food was meh. We got the salsa and tortilla chips for starters, and I got a range of vegetarian tacos whilst my partner got the meat tacos. I didn’t particularly like any of the vegetarian tacos, the seitan was undercooked and the texture was awful. I think using different meat alternatives would make it better. My partner liked the pork tacos, but the rest were just okay. The tempura broccoli was awful really, just broccoli coated in heaps of soggy batter. We really enjoyed the smashed garlic potatoes though, they were spectacular. The salsa and tortilla chips were good too. Overall, the sides were mostly great and the tacos were just ok. The atmosphere and decorations are lovely inside though. Service was pretty good too.

Absolutely devastated to be saying goodbye to one of Sunderland’s best spots! So we had to get a final visit in. Food, drinks and service all as superb as ever. Defo the best tacos and margaritas around! I am really excited to try out all of their new ventures across the city ❤️🤍

Absolutely fantastic Mexican "fusion" (is it fusion? I'm not sure but it was delicious) Great atmosphere and service from the off. Food was absolutely outstanding, plates come out fast and hot. The tacos we tried were the Crispy Squid, Korean Pork Belly and Pork Carnitas with some Cray Fish Dirty Fries on the side. Everything was 10/10. Three each was definitely enough but I could've maybe squeezed one more in if I'd have been greedy. Cocktails are superb and the Hell's Pilsner on draft is a tasty drop. We'll be back very soon. Awesome 😙👌 EDIT: been back several times since this review and it's been fantastic every single time. Every taco tried including the new menu (Oct 22) which I've uploaded as there doesn't seem to be a copy online. EDIT 2: still visiting Mexico 70 but tonight was probably out last visit. Nothing to do with the food or service but it's sadly closing its doors. It's been a real pleasure dining here and will be sorely missed. (I've updated my pics with the latest menu - definitely get the monkfish and the brisket) Thanks for everything Mexico 70

A lovely, quaint spot! Really enjoyed our visit to Mexico70 and will definitely be back. The alcohol menu seems amazing although we didn’t try much. Food is great and the small plates are perfect for a night on the town! Some flavours are questionable; however, the majority of food I did try was lovely. Atmosphere could improve ever so slightly to immerse customers in an authentic mexican experience.

Very knowledgeable staff. Lovely menu with tasty vegan choices and delicious cocktails. Excellent

really good food, relatively small portions, but that means you can try lots of different things; the cocktails were also really really nice and staff was so friendly. the place itself has nice low lighting, the space is quite dark, so it immerses you more into the experience

Having been a long time patron of Mexico 70 I'm sorry to leave a poor review. The Taco menu has dwindled down to 6 options, disregarding the 'vegan' options. The loaded fries have disappeared to be replaced by tatertots?? Which were poor, dry & pretty tasteless. Overall a huge disappointment, I'm sorry to say. Change is not always good

Stunning range of tasty food for everyone including vegan and gluten free so no awkward dietary discussion needed. Great!

Loved this place, been tonight and and was told there is a new menu! Very disappointed in choice of menu and food quality! No where near as good as previous! There was only 6 tacos to choose from and 1 was off menu! No dirty fries either Was our favourite place in town, not any more

I loved this restaurant & have been many many times however if I had known prior to my visit this evening that the menu had changed & what was on it now, I would not have went. Removing firm favourites & replacing them with tasteless new options was very disappointing. Even the sides have changed from chips to children tater tots. The choice of tacos & sides have been reduced so there aren’t many options & the food quality has also gone dow. dramatically. I for one am gutted.

Very cold inside.. The food was OK

Great restaurant with a good atmosphere and really nice food and cocktails

The best tacos! My partner and I adore this restaurant. The menu is regularly refreshed, the food is always tasty and fresh. The cocktails are very good, and the staff are always lovely. Definitely recommend.

Excellent range of meat, fish and vegetarian tacos and drinks including margaritas, cocktails and speciality beers, etc. Utterly delicious and good fun !

Brilliant food, pleasant staff. Refreshingly different. Really good finger food and sooo tasty. Really worth a visit.

We had been looking forward to visiting here but when we came in at 5.55pm the music was so loud you couldn't have a conversation. There were 3 other people in the restaurant and the lady at the side complained about the noise level to us as well. We were shown promptly to a table and that was it. No one came with a menu or asked us if we wanted a drink. After a few minutes we decided that this wasn't for us and started to leave. The customer on the adjoining table said she was going to do the same. As we left the table, one of the waitresses hastily picked up a couple of menus but we were out of the door by that time. I am really disappointed that we had such a dismal experience. With only 3 people in there, 2 of whom had been served with food, I can't think the staff were rushed off their feet.

Everytime when we visit Sunderland we go to Mexico 70 to have incredible and authentic Mexican food. The little tacos are so creative and delicious. The staff is very friendly and the drinks are nice too. So, we will come back again and again. :-)

Very nice. Surprisingly so. Still a tad too "cool" for me, but enjoyable nonetheless. Friendly service, good choice of food, outstanding margarita.

Staff were friendly and welcoming, they walked me through the menu. There is a good selection of soft shell tacos on the menu all with a fusion style twist. I ordered a Baja Cod taco which was really tasty but the stand out was the Vietnamese Beef. The meat was tender and well seasoned and every ingredient played a part in bringing together a well rounded dish that I'm still thinking about 2 weeks later. If I lived closer this would be a frequent visit

Very cool place to eat or have some cocktails. We got three Tacos each and some Fries, which was the perfect amount. The service was very friendly and helpful. Each taco is brought out when it is ready, which helps keep things fresh.

The best restaurant in the city centre. Consistently delicious tacos, the crispy pork belly being a personal favourite. Inventive taco choices and regular margarita specials makes it more than worth coming back again and again. Fantastic options for Vegetarians and Vegans. Cool venue and tunes, always a great evening.

Visited here last Monday. Great food. Great drinks. Our server George was amazing- single handedly taking food and drink orders, bringing food out and doing check backs. Nice atmosphere and amazing margaritas. Will be back / although I can’t help feel the stress of only having 2 people on shift tinted the atmosphere a bit. Mr and other diners commented on how stressed the waiter was. We could not relax knowing someone was stressing to bits trying to do everything. In my opinion more staff needed

This place looks less polished than the other restaurants nearby but don't judge a restaurant by it's covers. Once inside it's atmospheric, the staff are friendly helpful and knowledgeable about the food dishes and drinks. So tapa's ordered for two: squid, duck, king prawn, cod, miso chicken, Vietnamese beef and fries side. This was plenty for us two. Each dish was beautifully presented and well cooked. compliments to the chef. We also had Paloma cocktails which were refreshingly nice. I don't say this lightly but I think these are the best Mex taco's I've ever had. Thanks for a great night. If you're thinking of visiting look at mexico70 RESY website for info and booking.

Excellent food and atmosphere. Party of 12 very well catered for, service was quick and friendly. I had a query about the bill afterwards which was dealt with very pleasantly and efficiently ( turns out it was my mistake). Will be back!

Mexico 70 sells great taco's and great cocktails. Allow about 90 minutes for your visit. Book in advance via RESY, if going before 7.30pm as the theatre opposite fills the tables before then. Taco Tuesday means you can get some choices of taco's at 3 for £10. The ambience is lively, music is upbeat , and there is a mixture of normal tables with chairs and some high stools at table in the bar area. Staff are good at explaining the menu if needed and attentive without being intrusive. Taco's are like small 6 inch wide, home made flat tortilla's, and you are recommended to get 3 per person which is about right if you have skin-on fries , with or without extra toppings, and some tortilla chips and dips too. 3 of us shared a plate of skin-on fries and 2 dishes of tortilla chips with salsa and guacamole, plus 3 taco's each. That was enough for us and cost about £15 per head. If it wasn't Taco Tuesday, you could add £5 a head to that. The majority of the tacos come with sriracha (which I am told enhances the flavour) but can be ordered without it, thankfully, because I am no fan of the stuff. The tortilla chips are definitely so much better, fresher, crisper and with more corn than anything you can buy in a bag and the dips are fresh and delicious. The green salsa comes with pico de gallo ( finely chopped onion chilli pepper and tomato) has a bit of a kick with a definite coriander background, maybe tomatillo too? The guacamole is smooth and tasty with a hint of garlic and you get a lot for the price of the starter, about £6. Hot bottled sauces are provided to enhance the experience and each one is quite different from the other, my favourites were the chipotle (smoky one) and the jalopeno. The taco's came with a decent amount of filling in each, more than last time I think, and the combination of protein, vegetable and sauces are well thought out and combine beautifully. I had the crispy miso chicken, with asian slaw, miso crema and spring onions. Good quality chicken pieces, definitely crispy chicken - maybe panko breadcrumbs on them. I also had the baja cod, which is a chunky piece of good quality battered fish, with pea and mint mole, tartare crema and crispy capers. Classic combinations in a taco. Star of the show for me was vietnamese beef taco with thin rounds of red piquillo pepper, and crispy shallots. I dont know what was vietnamese about it , but it was the tastiest shreds of shin beef ever , which tasted even better with the shallots. The only downside to this venue is that there do not serve desserts or coffee and while I appreciate that this allows them to turn the tables more quickly in this 30 or so seater , busy, excellent place, something else to finish the night off would be most welcome.

Staff very friendly, explained about the menu and specials. Food very nice with new taco flavours. Taste sensation. Only one negative. Music was a bit loud so was hard to have a conversation.

Not for us, really. We prefer our food food all at the same time and hot. Limited menu. Cheap enough though.

The place itself is very basic, the food is ok but £9 for a margarita is taking a lend I think. Been twice now, probably got it out of my system now.

such a lovely place and amazing food - staff went above and beyond , especially George, who made my birthday special.

Serves THE best margarita this side of Tijuana. And the food is excellent too

Very unexpected visit, it coincided with Taco Tuesday, great deals on certain Taco's, can't fault.

Very Tasty food, Great selection of Drinks including margaritas. Food was prompt and delivered as each dish was ready, which allowed us to talk between each taco serving. Would recommended to friends for someone for a bite before drinks or theatre.

Food is always amazing here, we come here quite a lot. Very accommodating for dietary requirements.

Delicious food, delicious cocktails and lovely staff. Couldn’t find fault at all. Will definitely be back for a return visit.

Delicious fresh food, brill atmosphere and great service. This is a Mexican Tapas style restaurant where 3 taco Tapas each is recommended. Theres a large variety of Tapas. I had muergez, prawn and the vietnamese beef. Each was generous and full of fresh flavours. We shared nachos with delicious guac and loaded fries which were cooked to perfection. Three tacos for £9.99 on Tuesdays is an excellent deal. The cocktail menu looked great too. I loved the fun but moody atmosphere. My friend and I relaxed for the evening chatting and nibbling. Great for foodies and fans of casual dining. Recommend!

Visited Mexico 70 many times great atmosphere, amazing food and friendly attentive staff .

The rustic decor and friendly service make this a great place to visit before a show at the Empire Theatre. The tequila menu (get the Don Julio Reposado!) and tacos are tasty and help to get the evening (and the party) started.

We were here for dinner on St Patrick's Day and I wish we had gone elsewhere. Apart from being rushed all through our meal, which was quite expensive in relation to portion size, my husband asked to use the disabled toilet as the main toilets...

Staff friendly, food nice but way to expensive for what you got... Taco's were small and you payed top money. Shame...

Amazing indy venue with lovely bites from the small plates served...wide range of options

My sister and I had the best cocktails ever at this place…somewhat unexpected, but the chilli pineapple margaritas on special when we visited were exceptionally crafted and designed. Looking forward to going for food.

The waitresses are absolutely lovely as is the food, we arrived 10 minutes early so stood at the bar, it was quite hot inside

After reading all the great reviews I was really looking forward to our first visit... Unfortunately it wasn't all that!! Don't get me wrong, it wasn't horrible but when I see an average rating of 4.7 I'm expecting great things or at least great food! I'm still a bit confused actually but that may be my age catching up on me... The two young ladies that served us, were pleasant enough, polite even which is not guaranteed in this day and age Unfortunately... We were pretty disappointed at the non alcoholic drink options my wife had an orange cordial and water which is what it is and me a pineapple juice which looked like I had just emptied my bladder and the temperature of it was very similar... Probably the worst pineapple juice I've ever had... even stealing my wife's ice didn't help much.... I would hope they will give some thought to adding a few non alcoholic cocktails to the menu. So my wife had the crispy miso seitan taco which was pleasant enough, it wasn't that crispy, and we felt for the money they were all lacking garnish which adds to the overall freshness and flavour of each bite. She had the Baja cod taco for her 2nd and again it was ok. I had the Korean Pork Belly which was the biggest disappointment for me personally when eating pork belly I want it to be juicy and the fat to melt in my mouth but it was overcooked dry and chewy, maybe the chef knew because it was swamped with sciraca sauce I could not taste any other ingredients even squeezing half a lime on it couldn't help gandhis flip flop.... The 2nd I had and by far the best was the crispy duck not sure I tasted scotch bonnet marmalade but it was fresh, zingy and well cooked and delicious... We shared my 3rd sesame and ginger king prawn, The prawn I would suggest is a brought in generic product, not very tasty and slightly overcooked again seriously lacking a bit of inventinvous and flavour... also shared the crayfish filthy fries which were probably for me the most underwhelming thing we ate, apparently parmesan cheese tastes and melts like mozzarella because thats what we had on our fries no flavour and for £6.50 definitely not worth my money... My confusion is still about, so maybe not my age but the way the food is brought to your table I wouldn't of thought 5 tacos and some fries would be hard to serve at the same time but my wife had her 1st taco served and eaten before we got 2 more then a random amount of time for one and then another and our fries came well after the tacos were eaten..... Just seemed a bit disjointed.... They were not super busy so yeah still confused... Room for some improvements in my opinion.

Great cocktails, great food, quick service. Have been before and will definitely visit again. Very vegan friendly, one of our favourite spots in Sunderland

This very good food for us. I like different and spicy food so happy with this, did not know about Mexico70 until ask for recommendation. Back soon.

Such a gem in Sunderland! Amazing tacos but even better service. Leah served us and she went above and beyond! Such a lovely little spot. Will defo be back!

Great food, very tasty with a mix of flavours. Very friendly staff made you feel welcome.

Really, really good food. Cocktails were excellent and interesting, and the service was spot on. The soft shell taco with pulled beef was unreal! Really good vegan options too. Only thing I'd not order again was the guac -£6 for a few nachos and guac when you can get more chips or another taco for less!

Delicious food (mostly tacos), wonderful service, decent prices. Great vegan options for the vegans out there. Simple as that really!

Had a table for 2 booked for half 7 on a Saturday night to celebrate our anniversary. I tried to call to say we were running a little late but there's no phone number online anywhere. After arriving only 8 minutes late and being shown to the table, there was no urgency from the staff to take our food order, until at 7:55, a waiter came over to apologize for an error in the booking system, that someone else had booked our table for 8:45, but to say that we should still have time for food. This made the whole meal feel rushed and stressful. We ordered and the food came pretty quickly, but mid way through eating the same waiter came back at about 8:25 to say we needed to move to finish eating at the counter (55 mins in). This was completely unnecessary as we would clearly be finished in 20 mins, and there's no way we should be expected to move under an hour after arriving, mid-mouthful, for other hypothetical customers not in the building. And then after we did finish the staff showed no urgency to clear the table or offer the bill, so why come over and hassle us?! As it turned out, we were done at 8:45 anyway, at which point there were 6 free tables and no customers ever arrived ... Upon raising this issue, no members of staff showed any sincerity or offered their apologies. Instead they tried to say we hadn't read the booking properly. The booking certainly doesn't say we had to move after 55 mins, and if you look at Resy, it actually says tables after 7:30 on Saturdays get two hours!! All in all service was a real shame because the food is great, but next time we'll go somewhere we aren't stressed and hassled by the staff.

We ate here for a pre theatre lunch, it was fab! We got 3 tacos each (as recommended) and shared fries and tempura broccoli. Really tasty food!

The menu was limited but service was quick and food delicious

Something a bit different which was well worth the visit. Staff were great, maybe even a bit too attentive, and the food was delicious. Tacos were reasonably priced, with £4-£5 for one. They recommend 3 per person as they’re a little on the small side,...

Had heard this place was worth a trip from friends, not usually something I would go for but I am so pleased I gave it a try. Can't wait for my next Mexico 70.

For a place called Mexico 70 all they sell is tacos. No burritos, quesadillas, chalupas or chimichangas. Don't get me wrong the food was a good quality and taste, but the menu is very limited and quite pricey too at £4.50 a taco which they recommend 3 per person (gone in about 3 or 4 bites) I think if they expanded the menu I'd go back, but now I've had the tacos there's nothing else I feel personally to take me back.

Food was average. Server very disrespectful and rude to my friend (the only guy), and made us all uncomfortable. Ended the night on a bad note.

If i could give 0 stars i would, we were served by George who came off as very arrogant (cocky). As for the food part tapas were 5-6£ each which served one bite only, this isn't the problem, my main thing is that the food did not taste good at all, on the verge of being disgusting. Then towards the end when we asked for the bill, Mr, George the waiter was extremely disrespectful. A discount was given to the two girls who were with me and when I asked for it myself his response was "I dont know you why would I give you a discount" now this is extremely unprofessional to say and also very sexist, being a guy between my two girl friends. I also payed triple the amount that my friends did despite ordering similar things. Terrible experience made us all feel very uncomfortable. I would not recommend it to anyone at all. The only reason I would go back is to speak to the manager to file a formal complaint.

Would highly recommend, came for a Mexican left with a mouthful eclectic flavours from around the globe. Impeccable service and great music. A must visit for sure, if I only I could give it 6 stars.

Having been intrigued by the Mexican tacos and following their social media, a post online of the soft shell crab taco had me hot footing along for a tea time treat. We ordered loaded nachos to share and three tacos each from the extensive menu, the staff were very friendly and helpful making suggestions and checking for any food allergies or veggie/vegan leanings. I must say the nachos were delicious, freshly cooked and really really loaded. Five meat tacos and the aforementioned soft shelled crab came along when they were ready as everything is cooked to order, small plates, well presented and a bargain. Delicious. I'll have to return, the wings looked fantastic on the next table and the veggie options will delight the small child. I can't recommend this place enough.

Pre-theatre meal. Street food Tacos and drinks. Not traditional Mexican but the food is delicious nonetheless.

5 stars is not high enough. Mexico 70 is God's gift to Mexican food. It is so good, it should be illegal. Just visit here, it is class. I promise.

Trendy restaurant with great cocktails. One person in our group had a allergy and she was well looked after. Highly recommended.

Great service - food very good in the main. The service was very friendly and professional. The food itself was excellent in parts but average in others. The taco fillings were delicious as were the filthy fries. The tacos were quite stodgy though and unappealing. The standard fries were just that. The nachos that came with the refried Beans were inedible. On the whole was a good meal but not exceptional as we anticipated.

As always amazing food. Incredible staff, great atmosphere. This is by far my favourite place to go In Sunderland. Absolutely 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

I visited for the first time today. The lady who served us was fabulous and answered my questions, no problem. The food arrived quickly and it was delicious. Can't wait to come back again.

I’ve been meaning to review this place for months but never got round to it. Well to put it bluntly it’s just fe#king amazing!! I try and go every month and it’s yet to disappoint in the slightest! The food is just amazing, I love...

Small plates based menu so you can choose from a selection of great soft tacos including vegan options. There are a range of great sides as well including cauliflower wings which are delicious. And all this complemented with a superb Margherita. Top spot

Amazing quality food and even better cocktails. I sampled 3 different tacos each one was flavoursome. I cannot wait to go back and try others .

First visit here before a show at The Empire recommended by my daughter. Very friendly imformative staff, explaining everything about the food. The recommended 3 tacos and a side which i thought wouldnt be enough so we opted for crayfish fries to. Every meal was absolutely delicious and the service was so quick. I shouldnt have worried about not having enough to eat because we struggled with the fries. We wete absolutely stuffed with the tastiest 3 dishes we've had in a long time. It was delicious.

My friend suggested meeting for a catch up at this restaurant. I was excited to try the food as I’m a big fan of Mexican dishes. I was however disappointed on seeing the limited menu (if you’re not a fan of tacos there aren’t many...

We were looking forward to trying the food here but we were very disappointed. Very limited no burritos Fajitas or any of our fav Mexican food. What we got was soft tacos that left after taste with variety of toppings never heard of in Mexican...

Well nice large portion of chips

Holy cow. What a place. Loved it. Went in on a bit of a whim, they were fully booked by the looks of things but staff were incredibly helpful and friendly and sat me by the window. Food was super fresh and very well made. 3 vegan tacos and some tortilla chips with refried beans (well recommended!) was just right. Clearly a place that is passionate about its food, drinks and most importantly it’s customers. Amazing.

We had lots of good feedback from friends so decided to check it out. We were not disappointed, excellent food and service. A win-win for Sunderland, if only there were more restaurants of the same calibre. As another reviewer suggested, more tacos are probably required...

Went here the other day for food and it was amazing. This is my third time having food here and I just simply had to to try the new menu items. Everything I ate was amazing especially the new prawn taco which was packed full...

Lovely food and friendly staff. The cocktails are unreal.

Third time visiting yesterday, basically tried the full menu by this point. Can't recommend this place enough. Food, drinks, service and atmosphere have been faultless every time. Impressive 3:2 meat:vegan taco ratio, without skimping on vegan options for sides and extras. In my experience, it's rare that a restaurant that has so many meat options that they execute vegan dishes to an equally high standard (my partner is vegan). The tacos themselves are well and truly the main event with each encompassing bold flavours, with every element balanced - no flavour or component being lost in the mix. The menu is definitely Mexican fusion, with alot of Asian inspiration, but we're here for it. We're always impressed, and will continue visiting from Durham when we can - it's worth the journey!

So delicious, and such a welcoming atmosphere, great vegan/vegetarian options too. Drink menu superb, staff all lovely…just one of the best restaurants in the north east.

Food was great, margaritas amazing (especially the Diablo Margarita), and the atmosphere was really good too. Looking forward to going back.

Best Mexican food I ever had, Must try.

Worth going into Sunderland for the margaritas. Also good tacos.

Nice food and staff, Just felt a little bit rushed.
