    We arrived for a 60th birthday meal.. booked the week before. We were told 2 of the main courses weren’t available (very small menu so that was disappointing). We ordered starters only 2 arrived after 30 mins.. nachos and dips.. so very little cooking involved.. the nachos were very oily, the other starter didn’t arrive at all. We waited another 30 mins for the main courses .. they didn’t arrive either so we left. Very cold inside restaurant and poor service unfortunately.

    We visited last night and were really impressed by the authentic Tex-Mex flavors. The short menu focuses on quality ingredients, and the food was delicious—especially the Longhorn brisket tacos. However, despite it being a Tuesday night in February, the restaurant was making the classic mistake of cutting costs on staff, which really impacted the experience. The small team was completely overwhelmed, trying to handle table service, drinks, cash transactions, and delivery orders all at once. The guy in the kitchen was working flat out, and I’d be amazed if he can keep that pace up. Unfortunately, this meant our food sat waiting before being served, arriving at the table lukewarm. Pricing was a bit off balance—three saucer-sized tacos felt expensive, but the patatas bravas were excellent value. The homemade salsa was great, but they need to serve more chips with it, and some were sadly soft. Overall, the food was good enough to make us consider giving it another go, but unless they sort out the staffing, they risk losing customers. A real shame, because there’s so much potential here!

    One of the tastiest meals I’ve had in a long time. Food is incredible!! First time visiting and everything we had was amazing! It is a bit echoey in the back area but all of the food dock restaurants are the same at the back. I only mention it as I have a problem with my hearing.
