We hebben hier op oudjaarsavond gegeten. Het is een restaurant met verschillende soorten. Wij hadden gekozen voor soort tapas gerechten. Mijn vriendin is vegetarisch en voor haar waren er meer dan voldoende keuzes. Het eten was echt super lekker en de prijs/kwaliteit is goed.

I wasn't impressed with wahaca at all. I felt like the portion size to price ratio wasn't great. The tacos themselves had a texture as if the whole thing had been cooked in the microwave. Garnish was overpowering to the point where you couldn't taste the meat. I left hungry and unsatisfied. As a footnote, I will say that all the people I was with seemed to enjoy their meal. Maybe it's just not to my taste, but I definitely won't be back.

Wonderful spot for a bite near St. Andrews square! I got coffee and a burrito. My wife got tacos and hot chocolate. The food and drinks were fantastic! Even the chips had an excellent mix of sauces that really popped. The coffee and my wife's hot chocolate really surprised. Both were fantastic. Would visit again!

Relaxed, friendly atmosphere, tasteful themed decor, lighting and background music - we sat upstairs. Great staff - helpful, attentive, and knowledgable. Divine Picante Margaritas and wonderful dishes packed with exquisite flavours - traditional guacamole with tortilla chips, Frijoles Chorizo, Plantain Tacos, Ancho Mushroom Tacos and Beet Tartare Tostadas. Perfect for two - our taste buds were singing. Rounded the meal off with excellent coffee.

You can’t go wrong with Wahaca and on a cold Sunday night in Edinburgh this was just the right spot to visit. We had not booked a table in advance but the team were very accommodating and food was quick to roll out. It’s a nice venue and a great atmosphere and they did have a few new dishes as part of their Xmas menu. Always worth a visit!

I recently came with my partner for some dinner whilst in the city. I had head many great things about this restaurant from friends and thought I might give it a go. We took our chances and came without a booking however much to my delight we are able to secure a table. We were seated by our server an Australian girl however her name escapes me. She was lovely explained the menu well ensured we had plenty of knowledge round our likes and dislikes. She was very polite and friendly so thank you to her. We opted for a couple of burritos one beef one chicken both were gorgeous. Our food was very quick out which is always a bonus. I felt the bill was very reasonable we left a tip on top of our bill also for the staff as we had a fantastic time. We definitely are planning our return visit the next time we come to Edinburgh

It was my first time dining at Wahaca and it went really well. Good, strong margaritas, our server Nico (I hope I remember his name correctly, young lad with tattoos and dark hair) was such a delight and the restaurant environment is warm and welcoming. Food was really fresh and well seasoned! Loved the use micro coriander. The highlighs for me were beef gringa tacos and nachos - vegetarian and chorizo. They packed a punch of flavour! Will definitely be back.

The front of house server was abrupt and impolite, I think he was also the manager as he took my order (due to the fact I have an allergy). He barely said a word, and when he did it was dry. All other staff were so lovely and attentive - I like that they added on be service charge and that it all goes to the workers. Food was decent; but just not warm enough for me. Probably will return for a quick lunch if I am passing! Picture is the chicken rainbow bowl (GF menu)

I love this place. Specifically the Californian burrito, it might be the nicest thing I’ve ever eaten. Wow. No joke. You have to get the Californian burrito. The chips just make all the difference adding a lovely texture to burritos, which I often find too soft and mushy. The Californian burritos chips add the most satisfying texture and flavour to the burrito, so much so that I’m genuinely addicted to eating them. I’ve never even written a google review before but the I love the California burrito so much I had to. It’s so good it makes me want to write romantic poems about it. The only thing that annoys me is that it’s never on the discounts. The customer service is also great. I can’t recommend the Californian burrito anymore highly, and the time I will be spending away from Edinburgh over Christmas will make me miss my California burrito dearly 😢
