    Veggie Nachos were really amazing and loved Churros!! Happy to see so many vegan options available. One of the best Mexican places in Cardiff 💯

    Had a good dinner with delicious cocktails! The pork tacos were very tasty, however I found the meat filling to be a little dry. The fish tacos on the other hand were extremely crispy, while being moist and flaky on the inside! Definitely one of the best fish tacos I’ve had. The guacamole was fresh and helped to cut through the richness of the tacos, although a little more salt wouldn’t hurt. Lastly, the crispy cauliflower pieces were very crisp, however they were rather too tasty for its own good. Nonetheless, the service was excellent!

    Had dinner here and it was lovely. A few vegan options so very accommodating. I had the mushroom enchiladas and mushroom tacos which were tasty, my partner had the burrito which looked delicious (I was jealous). Mojito was good too, and they have plenty of seating

    Excellent Mexican food for a decent price. The menu is great - it has a large range of tacos (with plenty of vegan options that aren’t just black beans!) and interesting dishes such as crab tostadas. I also really like the decor here - it’s vibrant and colourful yet still modern and clean. Also the service was actually great!

    Fantastic food and fantastic service!!! We went for the 'Favourites' sharing menu plus Mexico City nachos and the dips. All of which was really delicious! Our waitress, Sian, was so lovely and really made the whole experience. Can't wait to go back and would really recommend a visit ☺️

    The service at the door was not too good as we where left waiting with no acknowledgement. But boy did Gemma redeem and make up for it. Her passion was amazing and her recommendations were spot on. You definitely need to visit here! 👍🏻

    Great food and service as always! We loved sitting outside with the cool atmosphere as well. Wahaca is a favourite of ours and this location didn't disappoint. :)

    We had a group booking of 45 and the manager had very kindly booked out the whole top floor for us, which was really kind and made the eveni g that little bit extra special. The atmosphere was buzzing, with vibrant colours and a constant flow of Corona's and Cocktails adding to it. The staff were extremely helpful and attentive and manged all of orders extremely wll, especially considering that most people had forgotten what they had ordered. I ordered the pork pibil tacos to start and the chicken and chorizo enchiladas for my main. The pork taco had a nice balance of flavours and a good amount of spice, although I would have liked to have a seen a wedge of lime on the side and some fresh herbs on top to compliment the dish. The enchiladas was a great portion size and was tasted nice, but didn't give me that wow factor. It also was accompanied by a small side salad and rice with kidney beans. I particularly enjoyed the rice, as it reminded me a little of rice 'n' peas. Overall a nice main with a delicious surprising accompaniment. I really enjoyed my experience and the staff made it extra special for our large party of people, a big thank you to all the staff.

    Great mexican food place, was very busy on the weekend but they still found us a table :) Vegan and vegetarian options

    Lovely food, great service & good value for money! Well worth a visit if you like Mexican food

    Booked a table for lunch as my partner and I wanted to try somewhere different for a change.Food was very tasty although expensive for what you got. £7.50 for 2 small festive tacos is overpriced in my eyes. Service was excellent although the 10% service charge is ridiculous. You should be able to alter this to what you see fit without the need to notify the server causing you embarrassment. The atmosphere was very nice and the decor was on point. Overall, as nice as the food was, I came away wondering how our lunch had come to nearly £60 for what we got so I wont be rushing back.

    I really like the Wahaca chain, they have a great selection of food with gluten free, vegetarian and vegan options. The staff is very careful with your food allergies and very friendly. The food will come as and when they are ready, so if you go as a big group bear in mind you won't be served at the same time. All the drinks are mouth watering as well

    Such delicious food, each dish perfectly flavoured, seasoned, and portioned. Would recommend 3 tapas size dishes per person, and also thoroughly recommend the vegetarian dishes even to meat eaters. Drinks were fantastic too; staff were attentive (but not pestering), knowledgeable and pleasant; and allergies were well catered for with allergen menu and trained manager to take allergy orders. Overall, would definitely recommend!

    Overall enjoyable late lunch. Food was tasty (forgot to take photos) and drinks were good. Would have liked a choice of flour tortillas instead of just corn and would have loved a fajita option. Out serverJamli was great.

    Friendly staff and the vegan option was amazing. I would like to see even more vegan options.

    Had a great meal there with my daughters. It was very busy but they managed to fit us in. Food excellent. Will certainly be going again. Mojito rather good

    Totally loved this place! Friendly and welcoming staff. Attentive and patient with explaining about food allergies and the policies around these. Nice suggestions and after I listened to them, I really enjoyed the food. Very chilling atmosphere and cool to be there. Highly recommended! :)

    The food is very tasty and nicely presented, however for Mexican food the prices seem relatively steep. That said will definitely be back

    Hi there, Really sorry to say, I have waited over 2 hours for my order, ordered off Deliveroo, the order was totally disgusting. It had obviously been sat in the boxes for a long time, the food was cold, soggy and underwhelming. I have ordered with you several times in the past and the food has been exemplary however on this occasion it was less than below par. I’m so disappointed after waiting over 2 hours. I’ve attached photos below where you can see to an extent the state of the order. Regards, Billy

    Delicious, enjoyed everything we ordered and service was super friendly considering how busy they were! Would definitely return. Favourite thing from the many options to choose from was the nachos, delicious 😍

    Food was great, really good. However, loo had run out of toilet paper and the whole restaurant could have been cleaner. Floor was dirty around our table. Food was delicious.

    The great flavour of Mexican Food served in a relaxed environment. The vegatarian selection was varied with some amazing flavours, it won't be long until I am back.

    We visited as a party of 4, food was great but the service was a let down. Dishes came put completely at random, so my wife and friend ended up finishing their mains before the other starters had even arrived. Items were missing from my meal but at that point I just preferred to take what I'd been given as sending it back would've taken too long. The icing on the cake was the attitude change of the staff when I asked for the service charge to be removed. Tasty food, but let down by poor staffing who seemed out of their depth that night.
