This restaurant is my local and it's great!
It is quite new and I went with a friend a couple of weeks ago. It has an interesting interior of purple and green but do not let this put you off: the staff are really friendly and it has a great atmosphere.
I had fajitas and they were delicious. There was a great varied selection of Mexican food on the menu. I will definitely return and I highly recommend this restaurant to all.

A group of us booked a table at this cute, little, colourful restaurant on Thistle st one Saturday evening. The food was lovely and there was a great choice of mexican dishes. Unfortunately the waitresses didn't smile and looked extremely bored of their duties, and made us aware that they needed our table back for another sitting at least three times during the meal!
So in conclusion a brilliant restaurant but shame about the waiting staff!

I gave it five stars because it reminded me of home. Have been living in Edinburgh for four years and this is the only mexican left that I love. The Yacht Club on Hanover Street was the other but sadly it is closed as the owner has died.

I agree with Jake, the best Mexican was the Tijuana Yacht Club until it sadly closed. Tex Mex is the next best thing! Very small but large portions, very nice for a romantic meal... according to my other half!

I realize this will offend, but have any the reviewers lived or even visited Southern California, Texas or Mexico? I have been horribly disappointed by the lack of understanding of 'Tex Mex' and Mexican cuisine since arriving in Edinburgh 6 years ago (yes, I am a native Southern Californian who has spent a lot of time south of the border). I desperately wanted Tex Mex II to deliver delicious, authentic Tex Mex fair but could barely overcome my disgust at the inclusion of pink peppercorns (PINK PEPPERCORNS?!) in my Suisa Enchiladas. Unfortunately, the pink peppercorns seemed to appear everywhere for no other reason than to appease the chef's silly indulgence. Additionally, in an attempt to eat beyond the peppercorns, I still couldn't find anything representative of the cuisine I grew up eating and truly love - nothing but the heavy, stodgy 'Mexican' cuisine that seems to sadly afflict this wonderful nation. On a positive note, the staff were fantastic and I did like the casual and friendly atmosphere. More than happy to schedule some cooking lessons with the chef.

This is a great wee restaurant in a cute little back street. The decor is not luxurious, but the food makes up for this and the portions are a good size, which is important to me. They have a great selection, including enough dishes for veggies and the staff are always friendly. try it! J.

3 of us stopped in here after some drinks on a Friday night. We stumbled in quite late without ordering with the sole intention to get some food inside us before continuing boozing. It's a great little place and I'm looking forward to going back sometime to enjoy it when I'm sober.
From what I can remember, the food was great (nice and spicy - I had a pork dish - something Colorado) and the staff very friendly.
