   Everything about our visit was amazing. From the moment we walked in and received a warm welcome, to the phenomenal drinks (frozen margs and Texas tea), massive portions of delicious fresh food and vibey ambiance. ALL the food was delicious, but special mention to the chicken taquitos and the queso. Big shout out to the staff who were all friendly, attentive and welcoming. Can’t wait to return.

   Probably the only authentic Tex-Mex in West London, if not London. It's a small restaurant that has become very popular. The food is top quality. Make sure to try their queso, the best I had in the UK! Unlike typical UK restaurants, they have generous Texas sized portions. For £6.99 you get a cup full of queso (not a ramekin like elsewhere). You'll wish you went for the bowl of queso at £13.99, nothing worse than running out of cheese sauce! Both come with their home fried tortilla chips. Taco Tuesday is a great time to sample their choice of tacos. Fajitas and burritos are excellent, and the chilli is great. They have a great choice of cocktails. In true Texas fashion, they have an extensive range of tequilas and mezcal. Definitely worth a visit!

   If you want gluten free there's a surprisingly large amount due to corn based wraps etc. The starters were unusual and flavoursome. I chose mead for my drink as it's gf and it was ok, not as sweet as expected. I enjoyed a chicken enchilada with refried beans. The staff were attentive and friendly, giving suggestions. Overall, a good time was had.

   Lovely walk in lunch for 3. Quick efficient friendly service. My friend had the house lemonade which she said was nice. Her medium spiced burrito bowl was not spicy enough for her but the lovely waitress brought the powerful habanero sauce which just hit the spot. My other friend and I had grilled chicken enchiladas which were well made. The refried beans : my friend finished hers but I personally felt it was too bland. Rice was good but I must admit that we all needed the habenero sauce to zhuzh it up. Popular place with outdoor seating. Clean unisex toilets.

   After a lovely day at Kew Gardens, we were craving a good dinner, and with such high reviews, D Grande seemed like the perfect choice. Unfortunately, it turned out to be the worst Mexican/Tex-Mex food I’ve ever had. We started with tortilla chips, which came with a “salsa” that was more like chopped tomatoes, and the chips themselves weren’t even salted. For mains, we ordered chicken tacos and a chicken quesadilla. The tacos were so bad I had to ask for them to be taken off the bill - the chicken was dry and tasteless, the shell was hard and stale, and overall it just felt like boiled chicken wrapped in an old crusty taco. I lost my appetite after one bite. The quesadilla was slightly better but still very average, with toppings that didn’t taste fresh at all. The only redeeming part of the meal was the bottled Corona - which is hard to get wrong. Sadly, an extremely disappointing experience.

   Absolutely fantastic place! The food is delicious, the portions are very well sized. We tried as much as we could and everything was great. Personally, I thought the corn and the taquitos were the best, but again, everything was lovely. Also, the staff are incredibly enthusiastic and friendly, such a pleasure to be around. The restaurant itself is incredibly cosy, you can tell the owners put a lot of love and care into it.

   Idk… people say it’s one of the best (if not just the best) Tex Mex in London and that they come from different neighborhoods to eat here. For me almost all of the food was just bland. Lack of flavors, lack of ingredients, just lack of taste. And it’s also not the cheapest place. Fish tacos had a weird taste to the fish. Enchiladas were nothing but bland sour cream. The rice was dry. For me it wasn’t the best experience. Twice, unfortunately.

   I was excited to try here as I had read it was run by a Texan. Unfortunately my expectations were not meet. The staff & service was very enthusiastic & professional. The flavours of the food however was a bit of a let down. Everything was fresh but the brisket taco’s were not as tender as I expected and lacking some flavour. The beef fajitas was nicely served on a sizzling plate but again was lacking in flavour. I’m not sure if it was the quality of the steak or how it was seasoned. The side of bacon beans were also a bit bland. On a plus note the hot sauce was delicious and helped offset this lack of flavour. The homemade lemonade was nicely tangy. I didn’t try the dessert. Not a fan of businesses adding charity causes automatically to the bill, permission should be sought first.

   These guys are legit! As a Texan who has lived in London over ten years now, this place has been a saving grace. I have been longing for proper margaritas and queso here for years and these guys have come in and saved the day. Their quesos and margaritas are the real deal. They do bottomless brunch (with margaritas!!) and breakfast tacos too. I’m also a huge fan of sour cream chicken enchiladas and not only do they have them, but they’re delicious! The staff are super friendly and the service is great. This place is such a welcome breath of fresh air to the London food scene, especially for those of us longing for a taste of home, and I’m so thankful for it.

   Authentic Tex-Mex! Once I heard this place was run by Texans, being one myself, I had to give it a try and it did not disappoint! The queso was full of flavor and addicting to the point I was scraping the bowl. Brisket tacos were smoky, moist and tender. Beef and cheese taquitos had a nice char to the meat and perfectly crispy without being greasy. Finally the street corn was the perfect balance of char, seasoning and moisture. Wish I lived closer to visit it more frequently but will def make the venture whenever I’m in London!
