    For the quality of the meal, I would absolutely recommend this place. Would suggest Bahian jackfruit curry served with rice and coconut flakes, It has a lovely flavour. The jackfruit burrito bowl tasted fine. Portion size is slightly smaller as compared to the price tag.

    Good place to hang out with friends. I like their drinks and cocktails menu. Their strawberry caipirinha is really good as well as their Brazilian Grapefruit Spritz. I liked Malquerida Fresh Red lager, it's a nice lager for summer. If you want to go there for Friday, Saturday night, you need to make reservations a few days before for sure. Their chicken quesadillas, nachos, Brazilian fried chicken and burritos are nice for a chain restaurants.

    Went for the 2hr bottomless brunch. Service was quick and staff was friendly. The cocktails were delicious and there was a large variety to choose from (approx 12, if I recall correctly). Lost 1 star because the burger I had wasn't the best..tasted unseasoned, dry and burnt. However, others in the group had different food and they really enjoyed it so down to personal taste I suppose. Overall, I would definitely return for the cocktails and atmosphere, maybe try a different meal though😅

    Our recent trip to Las iguanas was really good. We did the late night bottomless brunch and really enjoyed it. The service from Emma was absolutely amazing. She was really on top of drinks orders which, for me, is the most important part of a bottomless brunch experience. The menu had a decent amount to chose from, both food and drinks. I would be happy to pay the £35 for that again.

    The food at Iguanas was good, especially the fillet steak, loaded chicken, and chicken burritos. The service was super good, and the drinks, like the Coconut Cooler, were tasty. But, just so you know, it's a bit pricey.

  • 5/5 Alexander K. 5 months ago on Google
    Quick service even with a fuller house. The food was very tasty, the meatballs were nice with a kick to them. The chicken and plantains were cooked well not dry or too crispy. Enjoyed my meal, also learned that cocktails were 2/1 all day there which is nice. Little overdone with the ice but was still pleasant!

    Deducting a star due to the price. All the foods were delicious. The service and staff were really good. However, the food is a bit expensive, and the portion size is not in line with the price. We ordered the caruru and fillet steak skewer, which tasted good, but the price was too high considering the portion and sides provided.

    It was a lovely experience. Had a dinner with my wife for our first wedding anniversary, and guess what? We got a bottle of Prosecco on the house. Food was lovely and timely, we had Chardan and Kayler wait us. They were so kind and warmly, definitely recommend for a couple or group of friends. We had the 3 course Christmas menu and were so full afterwards. Again food was banging, 5 full lonely stars from me

  • 3/5 Sarita B. 8 months ago on Google
    The vegan option were varying and good along with kids option. Cutting 1 point for missing cutlery, napkins on table we were seated , and ice-cream that was ordered. My kid didn’t like the Kids meal as roasted veggies were bland.

  • 2/5 Remi R. 10 months ago on Google
    Visited on a bank holiday was initially quiet but got busy quickly into the evening. Mainly a young crowd. Friendly staff, although lacked knowledge of menu and relied on us to advise on where dishes were listed whilst making our order. Foods were average tasting at best. (Left most of what we ordered). Cleanliness of venue to be desired. Online table order system was not working at the time of our visit but would have been preferable than using sticky, worn menus. Sadly unlikely to visit again based on that experience.

  • 1/5 Vicki C. 11 months ago on Google
    Service is great waiters are lovely. However the food isn’t great. Fajitas were £19 and had barely any chicken n lacking any real flavour- and the enchilada was like watery slop no spice at all and swimming in black mushy beans like a swamp. Wouldn’t go again as massively overpriced for the food your getting! Can make your own at home for less and will taste a lot nicer

  • 5/5 Adam T. 2 years ago on Google
    Lovely place. Great food, half price cocktails. Nice staff. Covid safe.

  • 5/5 Sunileeyo 1 year ago on Google
    The food is great, we had a variation of cocktails which is great as they are 2 for 1 all day. The food was super good, would recommend them. I would have given 5 stars if we were able to be served by staff rather than be told to order online. Especially as they were not busy and only had 2 other customers dining at the time of our arrival.

  • 3/5 George N. 1 year ago on Google
    Seated promptly and drinks ordered and came quickly. Food took an hour to arrive, it is Valentine's day but still too long to wait. I had coconut curry, which was nice but overpriced. Friend had the Cuban sandwich, would not recommend, very dry. Staff were friendly but not very attentive. Very good with allergy requirements.

  • 5/5 D'Arcy F. 6 months ago on Google
    Had such a nice time, it was just me and it was a completey new experience, but I was made to feel comfortable and at ease. Couldn’t have gone any better, thank you :) x

  • 4/5 Jill H. 1 year ago on Google
    Lovely place, quite busy. Food presented well, and tasted wonderful. The only thing I would say that if you are going to put hot peppers in a beautiful mild chicken dish, please put them in whole so that can be taken off your plate as my friend had one that was cut up and it was so hot it made her mouth on fire and spoiled the dish for her. Good friendly service, would definitely recommend a visit.

  • 4/5 Rashmi D. 1 year ago on Google
    A very busy place during weekends. Friendly staff, since it's so busy food takes a bit long to arrive. Starters portions are way too small for the price.

  • 2/5 Edward C. 1 year ago on Google
    Music was WAY too loud (nightclub level at 6pm in a family restaurant). Asked to turn it down; they said yes then didn't. 30 minutes before first drink was on table. Staff appear trained to ignore gestures for attention. Table was not cleared at end so had to sit in our own filth for 20 minutes waiting for someone to bring the bill. £15 service charge was automatically added to bill. We asked manager to remove this charge as service was terrible. He said okay and was not interested in knowing why. Food is good. Cocktails are decent. Service and ambience were far below par. An unpleasant dining experience.

  • 4/5 Ali F. 1 year ago on Google
    Decent place inside town. Have to park a bit away and walk. Steak was good, chicken fajita was nice. Prawns were not nice. Overall a bit expensive for the food. Service was good.

  • 4/5 SOLANA 2 years ago on Google
    Tasty food but there could be a bigger selection. The servers were also very friendly and understanding.

    Food is good and love their mocktails. Service is always pretty slow though, so make sure you don't have somewhere to be after otherwise ya gonna be late....

  • 4/5 Neil R. 2 years ago on Google
    Visited on a Saturday evening. Great atmosphere and buzz. Very friendly and reasonably attentive staff. Slight wait on drinks but nothing too bad. Food quality really good. Unfortunately too busy to stand by the bar before sitting at table

  • 4/5 Shachar H. 2 years ago on Google
    Good atmosphere, nice food and drinks. Service can be better

  • 4/5 Belle S. 2 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Amelia W. 2 years ago on Google
    Tapas style lunch was DELICIOUS, 5 dishes from Gambas to Quesadillas to Chicken Wings.. definitely lunch enough for 2!

  • 2/5 Nistor A. 2 years ago on Google
    I've wanted to try some new Mexican dishes, and I was extremely happy for what I've got in relationship with the price. However, my girlfriend choose to have a ham sandwich which was filled with 2 slices of ham, 2 slices of cheese and 1 teaspoon of mustard, with no salad or pickles as advertised, hence the 2 stars. 2 for 1 drinks were good, but not out of the ordinary. Will definitely try only the Mexican food next time.

  • 2/5 Thomas B. 1 year ago on Google
    Came here with my wife & 2 friends. 3 of us were told our main choices were not available, 2 of our starters were not available and also some of our drink requests. When we settled for our 2nd (or 3rd) choices, the food was okay. The server was very apologetic and very polite and did her best. We could tell she was mortified at the lack of availability too. Also, as a Coeliac, the GF fajitas were disappointing, as the 4 wraps that were provided were smaller than the palm of my hand. It felt like I was eating a kids Happy Meal and left still feeling hungry.

  • 4/5 Lewis D. 1 year ago on Google
    Not bad.... average / good food. Severs are understaffed, but are friendly and try their best. Cocktails are really nice. Little overpriced.

  • 4/5 bianca a. 2 years ago on Google
    Had a lovely meal, food was fresh and the two for one cocktails were brilliant. They even changed one that I couldn't drink. Customer service was excellent. Will be visiting again :)

  • 4/5 Anna R. 2 years ago on Google
    Decent menu choice and ambiance. Quite a few halal, veggie and vegan choices too. A little boring non-alcoholic cocktail and beer section, but the 2for1 kind of makes up for it :) A solid go-to choice if you find yourself around the Cathedral lanes.

  • 5/5 Kymberly J. 1 year ago on Google
    Great service, lovely food and two for one cocktails are always a treat!

  • 5/5 Sona m. 1 year ago on Google

  • 4/5 George C. 1 year ago on Google
    Very nice Las Iguanas in Coventry. A bit crowded but the food was very nice and the drinks were excellent.

  • 4/5 Richard S. 1 year ago on Google
    Great range of food and drink available from Latin America in either a set or standard menu. Good selections of drinks available with 2 for 1 on all cocktails and mocktails. Service is often a little slow but staff are friendly and the atmosphere is good. Nearest parking is Salt Lane or Barracks car parks.
