Mokos Mexican Restaurant in Monmouthshire

Visited the restaurant with friends Menu was lovely and I had a delicious mocktail My husband had the Chimichanga and my friend and I had Mexican Tequila Chicken Lovely setting service was excellent and company was lovely Would return again

I don't normally post reviews, but Mokos deserves 5 stars.

Food slaps, long island ice tea slaps. ✅

A highly recommended option to explore in Monmouth. Tasty,enjoyable meal in a great atmosphere,price a bit high and my portion of salmon small.Thank you so much to the friendly and outstanding staff.

Very tasty. Well worth the visit. 4 people. 4 meals and 8 drinks. £40 per head.

Lovely meal, the Mexican tequila chicken is so tasty! Had a couple of old fashioned cocktails to finish.

Simply great. Attentive staff, top food, affordable prices, great location. A real gem that made our short stay in Monmouth memorable.

Excellent food and service , came here from the Midlands for a day out and pre booked a table and asked them to arrange some balloons for the table . They did this for me , table looked lovely surrounded with all the Mexican props and Birthday Banner . The food was out of this world , served to our tastes and piping hot . Large portions too , excellent value and perfect customer service.

We had such an amazing time last night. Food was so tasty and massive portions so had to bring my spicy chimachanga home . Staff were so lovely and very accomadating. Will definitely be coming back

Popped in for a quick dinner with one other table in at the time. Food was great and initial service fantastic. But once we finished our mains the staff disappeared for around an hour! We were about to just leave as they didn't want to offer desert or even be paid, and get desert at weatherspoons when she appeared briefly. Surfice to say not impressed with service at all!

Great place to go for lunch, lovely and polite staff. Food was great. Definitely will go again. Great decor and music. Can't wait

We had planned to sit in, but after a tiring day of walking, we couldn't face it, so decided to get a takeaway. After wandering down armed with our order, we were met with very friendly staff and an inviting and cosy restaurant. 30 mins later we picked up our orders and took it home to hungry teens. Everything we ordered was delicious, we had chimichanga, burrito, quesidilla, nachos, jalapeño poppers and even a burger and fries for the mild of constitution. All packaged well, generous portions, authentic, good quality and tasty! Couldn't fault it, would go back in a heartbeat, shame we will live 3.5 hours away. If you're in the area you must try it, and eat in, we wish we had!

We stopped in here for a late lunch partly because the whole of Monmouth seemed to be closed at 2pm on a Wednesday. We were so lucky though - this place is an absolute gem! Just one chap doing all the prep, cooking and serving, but he really knows his stuff. I had chimichangas, my partner had tacos, and both were delicious, and not the sloppy American take on Mexican food but much closer to the original Mexican versions. Definitely give this place your custom - we were the only people in there and it deserved to be thronging.

Lovely little Mexican restaurant. Food was extremely good and large portions. The decoration and ambience was very inkeeping with the theme although staff were very friendly and weren't at all authentic. That apart I would recommend as somewhere to go for tasty food and pleasant atmosphere.

Enjoyed an excellent meal on a date night. Superb friendly service and professional courtesy, nice atmosphere and apt back ground music. Will definitely visit again, thank you to all who made our evening so enjoyable.

Middle of the week and the restaurant was busy (good sign), so our group of 6 were accommodated upstairs. Service was lovely and friendly with a good selection of beers. The food was to die for. We had a great selection of starters and mains, with my *venison* burritos being exceptionally good. Every dish was beautifully prepared, with fresh ingredients, and took Mexican food to a previously undreamed of plane.

Visited for the first time tonight and loved it. Our friends have been banging on about this place for years and now I can understand why. Great food, great service and friendly atmosphere. Can't wait to visit again soon!!

Had a lovely meal here with my wife. Very friendly service and lovely food. You get an option of mild, medium and hot. My wife had the tequila chicken and I had the burritos. Both very tasty, Draught San Miguel was very reasonably priced. Worth a visot'

Fantastic local independant, looking forward to going again in a few weeks

Enjoyed this place lovely food lovely team who was treated well service was great.will go back for steak and chips🍽😀

Great atmosphere, good food and great staff

Booked a table for two before a show at the Savoy. Greeted and sat by a very friendly gentleman who couldn't do enough for us. Order the combo platter to share to start.. absolutely amazing. chimichangas to follow one beef mild for me (perfect) one chicken hot for the wife. Also perfect but spicy. Over all fantastic meal very reasonably priced and great staff. Will come again

I really must share what a fantastic place this is ! We went on NYE and it was amazing. As we were driving we had a non alcoholic Mojito each which was gorgeous. The food was superb and cooked to our preferred spiciness. the staff were so lovely and friendly and made us feel really welcome. It takes a lot to impress Me, but boy, this place did just that. Thank-you for a wonderful experience.

Arrived at this restaurant without a booking, we were told we could sit upstairs initially but Peter sorted out a table downstairs. This restaurant delivered an outstanding experience the service was spot on. Food delicious and piping hot, at front of house is Peter a man with a huge personality and sense of humour he made our visit so enjoyable we will be back thank you all.

Once again had a fantastic meal at Moko's within 10 mins of booking a table we were seated and perusing the menu. Veg Chimichanga for my partner and I had Los Burritos. Welcome was spot on very accommodating and friendly. Service was prompt ,food was delicious and freshly prepared. And on top of that we had the opportunity to see Peter's legs. We will be back (in fact we have a table booked for 5/12/23 already looking forward to it).

Absolutely love it here. My gran introduced us to it over 10 years ago and we still keep going back. Reasonably priced, maybe even too low. Large portions and the food is always incredible

Really friendly and food was so good. A very lovely dinner out with the family. Thank you!

Atmosphere was a bit 'cold'. Maybe because of the open front door! Service was nice and friendly.Food was quite tasty quesadillas were very nice, but my burrito was undercooked and gluey and gave me stomach pain in the night .

What a wonderful evening of food. Delicious and so tasty. Service was excellent and our waiter was so much fun. We very much enjoyed our meal and will certainly return soon. Highly recommend

Really lovely meal and great service. Spiced up the fajitas form me and they were cracking. The jugs of cocktails are a must try. Looking forward to eating at Moko's again soon.

The third time I have visited and it was absolutely beautiful as each previous time. My father was also suitably impressed and believes it’s the nicest paella he has ever had. Looking forward to going again very soon. Highly recommend

Great food.Excellent service.Fair price. Recommended

Dropped in without booking and were lucky to get a table. Very helpful and funny staff. We’d call it a British Mexican restaurant but the food was good and would recommend trying if you are visiting Monmouth rather than eating in a chain.

Very friendly, helpful recommendations and lovely food. Good value for money in the heart of Monmouth

Food was good, the service has room to improve and bizzarely they had vanished their tables which were stick and that made it an unpleasant experience. With time that issue will go away. Atmosphere was good on a Saturday night.

Lovely waiter who was very attentive. Food was ‘playing it safe Mexican’, cooked well and tasty but with premium prices for what you get, we were a bit taken aback by that. However, if you like the Mexican you know and love, not a bad place at all.

Staff very helpful (our car had broken down so we were a bit stressed about phone signal, so they gave us a number we could be contacted on). Food was very good and great value. Staff recommendations weee good

The atmosphere in this place was amazing! The staff were friendly and helpful, the food was top notch, me and my partner had a wonderful time! I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a good evening.

I never really leave feedback but feel I need to on this one We went here as was driving through Monmouth checked out the reviews and seemed positive don’t Be fooled food is tasteless full of grease and just rubbish the actual place itself has a real dirty grimy feel left most of the food and left disappointed won’t be going back.

Came here with my family tonight. Mokos did not disappoint!! The food and atmosphere was Amazing and we were happy to see the staff were friendly as well. Over all a great experience that we highly recommend. Thank you.

Amazing food, friendly staff, really enjoyed our experience. Highly recommend

We were staying near Monmouth in our motorhome and met up with friends in Mokos. The menu is very varied and the quality of the food and the service were equally excellent. Highly recommended.

I love all dishes, delicious and spicy as i want. Good service.

My group of 8 golfers had a great evening at Mokos on Wednesday. They provided a good selection of really tasty starters as well as great main courses. The waiter was really helpful. Many thanks.

Visited last night with my wife. Absolutely amazing food. Service was outstanding nothing was a problem thunk this will become a monthly visit thanks alot lee

Overpriced simple food. Didn't enjoy the burritos at all. Took an age for our order to be taken.

Amazing food, great portions, great service. Amazing food, great portions, great service. Amazing food, great portions, great service.

Beautiful food, excellent staff and great atmosphere. Portions are generous too and fairly priced. Will definitely be visiting again.

Me and my family go here regularly, always delicious food and great service. The host is always welcoming and entertaining. Best cocktails in Monmouth

Food is excellent and consistent. Great staff and good range of drinks

Excellent food and good service. Only negative was that the portions were massive which I think caused too much good food going to waste

Awesome margaritas, delicious hot sauce, super staff. Will definitely visit again!

Went to Mokos for a family meal. Not the first time and certainly won't be the last. Food is always superb and can't fault the service one bit. Look forward to going again soon.

Quiet Wednesday evening but a lovely little restaurant with great food and wide menu.

This was a great find. At the top of the high street, a family run restaurant. Very friendly and despite being busy they found us a table. The food was excellent. The BBQ chicken fajitas were wonderful. The service was friendly and helpful. Strong recommendation...

Good food and wonderful people making it happen

really nice food big menu choice had the nicest cocktails and really friendly staff

Very nice food and friendly service. Well recommended

Though my family enjoyed the food. I ordered an £18.95 paella. I don't eat any meat and treated myself for the first time in 3 years by ordering a seafood paella. The dish stated shrimp, mussels and squid. The paella I got had no seafood...

Though my family enjoyed the food. I ordered an £18.95 paella. I don't eat any meat and treated myself for the first time in 3 years by ordering a seafood paella. The dish stated shrimp, mussels and squid. The paella I got had no seafood in it, it instead had chicken and pork in it. Not at all what I ordered and certainly not worth £18.95. Unfortunately I couldn't eat any of it as I don't eat chicken or pork, hence why I ordered a seafood paella. I left feeling hungry with a packed lunch for my kids of savory rice and chicken strips! If a restaurant doesn't have seafood then tell the customer instead of trying to throw together alternatives that in no way resemble what is described on the menu. Serves me right for ordering seafood after 3 years of abstinence from any animals. This is the last time I order seafood. Check with the restaurant before òrdering, that what the menu describes is what you are getting or like me go home hungry and highly disappointed.

19 of us from dingestow bowling club had a lunch there today food very good and service first class

Really enjoyed this authentic restaurant. Good value as well.

Delicious food, big portions and good prices. Love the vegetation options. Definitely worth a visit.

Absolutely fantastic food, very accommodating with our 6 year old, We can’t wait to visit to again soon

Amazing food and quick service, generous portions and catered for 18 month old (again a very generous portion). Top notch cocktails. Would highly recommend!

Just enjoyed our best ever burrito, take away whilst staying in Monmouth. You really must try this! Tasted amazing & excellently presented.

4 of us enjoyed a lovely meal here. Reasonable prices and good service

Great range of food on menu, perfectly cooked, good wines, good service

The food at this restaurant is absolutely fantastic and well worth going out of your way to try it! The only criticism is that the service is slow but the food more than makes up for it.. I cannot wait to visit again very soon..

Had a great meal here great service friendly staff 👍

Slow to take our order but it was busy and definitely worth the wait. The food was absolutely fantastic, so flavourful and big portions. The staff were friendly and the restaurant is ideally situated a few doors down from the theatre. Highly recommend this place,...

My partner and I were in Monmouth for a couple of days and were looking for somewhere for dinner when Mokos caught our eye. So glad we picked here! Upon arrival we were greeted by a friendly, polite young man who couldn’t do enough for...

Very very good food amazing service hard working high quality team thanks

Popped in here whilst working away again. Had a really good pint of cold San Miguel and excellent chicken fajitas. The staff where very polite as well. Definitely worth a visit if in Monmouth. It was quiet due to it being a cold wet evening but this place deserves to be busier, ill be going back next time I'm in the area.

Well we popped in on a spur of the moment recon. Well what a feast fantastic food and fantastic service. The heat that you want us up to you and believe me they did not let us down. Well worth Five stars.

Revisit our 2nd, took the 4 kids with us this time. I have to repeat that the food is delicious. Service is with a smile and they can't do enough for you. I've had beef Burritos and I've has the Beef Chimichangas either way u can't go wrong.

We would definitely recommend this restaurant, as food is cooked really well & presented really well! It does seem to get very busy, so would recommend booking as it always seemed quite full! Excellent Cocktails too!

Visited while on holiday. It is very rarely we revisit a restaurant in the course of one week, but we were so impressed by our meal taken on the Wednesday we made a special point of booking a table for the Friday. Well worth it....

Best company, Best service, Best food. Highly recommended. I have been to mokos many times over the years the quality of the food and service is always on point!

Visited for lunch and had the place to ourselves which was fine. Started with buffalo wings and spicy mushrooms and prawns which were delicious. Followed by Los Burritos and chicken and chorizo fajitas. All really good and feshly cooked. Couldn't fault a thing and the...

Wonderful food and drinks and friendly, prompt and attentive staff. Beautiful restaurant with a lovely vibe!!

A great informal good fun restaurant with excellent Mexican food.

I did fancy a Chain resteraunt such as Las Iguanas, so we ventured to Mokko Monmouth and we were not disappointed. Firstly on a Thursday Friday Saturday you need to book, it was packed. There's air-conditioning. The food was fantastic I Had Burritos , my...

Really pleased we came here on our weekend in Monmouth. Lovely fresh food, great service and atmosphere. Also really child friendly, adapting a dish from the adult menu as well as a good selection on the child menu.

Delicious menu, can select heat and meat/vegetarian options for most. The cocktails and tequila options were also great! The hard-working staff were really friendly, we'll definitely be back

This was our first visit and we were very impressed with the choice of food available. Our waitress was friendly and efficient, and the food, which was delicious, didn't take long to be served.

This is a nice mexican restaurant with a friendly atmosphere and good service.The food is freshly cooked and delicious, I haven't had mexican food this good for years. The portion sizes are just right.Its a shame I'm only here on holiday, otherwise I would eat...

Very courteous service, extremely tasty food! Gladly again, it was so worth it!! :)

Lovely food. Best burger I've had in years

Well worth a visit to mokos if you like Mexican food. We were passing through Monmouth on a long journey and decided to stop to find somewhere to eat. On a hot day we were glad Mokos had air conditioning! The cocktails were incredibly tasty and they were not shy with the alcohol. My friend and I both ordered the burrito with a side of fries and were amazed by how good the portion size was. I had pulled more in mine and my friend had beef mince. Both had so much flavour. The 2 waitresses were very friendly and the owner was a lovely chap, came to check the meal was OK and even brought out some special hot sauce his kitchen staff had made up. 100% worth a visit

Really tasty food, friendly service and a gentle cosy atmosphere; this was a lucky find. Especially as there seemed to be few other restaurants open that evening in Monmouth.

Lovely food. Did a takeaway and still the food was hot.

So nice to be back here again. Food was lovely.

excellent food. every times come to Monmouth we go to eat at mokos and we are always try eat different meal ....we never disappointed at all..lovely food and great service

A really disappointing experience. Friends had eaten here a few week previous & loved it so much they took us along for evening meal. I half wonder if there was a replacement chef in the kitchen, who is new to cooking Mexican, as the food was not good to say the least. Nachos had very little topping & were tasteless. Friends chimichanga was burnt, some parts were visibly black & hence inedible, he only had 2 mouthfuls. Can't believe the chef let it out of the kitchen in that state. My chimichanga with beans, had few beans but lots of runny 'juice' making the tortilla really doughy, hardly palatable and bland! Able to eat less than half of it. We complained to the waitress but we were brought the bill containg charge for food we couldn't eat! Expecting us to pay the entire bill. We didn't.

Lovely cosy restaurant with cracking food and nice cocktails (ask for the special cocktail 😉). Seafood paella and venison fajita were proper job. Friendly staff made the evening even better. Will definitely go back when passing through Wales. Thank you lovelies x

Excellent service and excellent staff. We really enjoyed our meal, thank you so much

Excellent service and great food definitely will be going back

Great place to go. Warm welcome and good food. Mo is the best.

Once again fantastic all round. Good food and great welcome and service from Peter. A1 we will be back.
