Pleasantly surprised by Isla Bonita. The food was excellent, the service was great, and it was a really fun evening. Not one for a romantic first date - the emphasis is on party atmosphere and bright cocktails. The food is surprisingly good - very fresh and huge servings. Everyone had a great night, and we all have some good photos with sombreros!

My experience in this restaurant wasn't that good. First of all the deals they hava for group, like sharing plates, is good but you can only ask for one time. If you ask for another sharing plate they would no because is to much work for thw chefs. The food is not the best and the customer needs to get improved. They look like they doing us a favor. We didn't feel comfortable. I have one advice for the drinks: don't order sangria. it tastes nothing.

Finally tried this neighbourhood spot and was pleasantly surprised. The cocktails were made with care and yummy. I'm not sure how 'authentic' any of it is (from cocktails to decor to menu), but it's fun in a crazy-kitchy kind of way. I found the appetizers a bit 'hit and miss' but the fajitas were fresh and tasty. The place was a little empty on a Thursday evening but (perhaps as a result) the service was great. I will have the steak fajitas again at some point in the near future.

This wasn't my first visit to the restaurant and the last time I came everything went smoothly so I'm guessing they were just having a very bad night and were short staffed. It wouldn't put me off going again but I would hesitate to recommend it until I've seen them operate with a full team. Sadly on the night it took us 25 minutes to get our 1st round of drinks and this meant we were served the starters before the drinks arrived. The food was plentiful and tasty so no complaints there but I'm hoping they can resolve their staff issues. One diner was very rude to the waiter which I really didn't feel he deserved. It wasn't his fault they were down some key team members.

The service was very good , they deliberately turned down the music as requested and the waitress was attentive but not intrusive. The food was average but the portion was big
