   Very friendly and helpful staff, dog friendly, nice seating area with wood burner. Portion size was more like a starter. Also seemed over priced as I paid less than £10 for three tacos in London last week so I was surprised to be paying £12 for three tacos at home especially as it was the size of a starter

   What a shame. I really was hoping to try this place, as I have passed it many times during the day. Checking out FB told me that the opening hours were changed on a Sunday and that they close at 7pm - fair enough, I can work with that. Shortly before 6pm I walked through the door, passing a seating area full of customers enjoying themselves with food and drink. At the takeaway counter I was told, "Sorry, we're closed". Perplexed, I looked at the three men behind the counter. "we are closing early - no customers". It's hard not to take that one personally. Needless to say I won't be back. If you want more customers, then maybe consider serving them when they arrive.

   I’ve not had better tacos outside of Mexico and San Diego. These are proper - no Tex Mex nonsense. Delicious. And everything on the menu is gluten-free. I don’t understand the complaints about the size. For tacos, these are pretty big. They’re not starter size. I had beef tacos and half a portion of the nachos and that did me - and I’m a bit of a pig. Sure, they’re not cheap, but they are value for money because you’re getting quality. Lovely bunch of people too. The one downside is it’s only open four days a week.

   We were here on the opening night and they were very busy . The chefs kept their cool and worked through the orders getting all the food out correctly. We waited about 30 minutes and it was worth the wait . We had tacos, nachos and the fries between us and they were all delicious. Just spicy enough without being overpowering. Good price as well .The staff were all very friendly even though they were really under pressure. Really looking forward to going back another day when it’s a bit quieter . Well done !

   Phenomenal takeaway. Not usually one for squid, but we're right by the sea, so I thought "why not" and went for the squid and prawn chilli box. Excellent portion, enough for two really, and fresh ingredients. Couldn't fault it. Other menu items available for those not into seafood. Staff were helpful and happy. They even dropped my order out to the car. Picnic tables outside if you choose to hang about and plenty of parking spaces available. First class.

   Good. More expensive than a regular takeaway but quality of fish, the slaw, the sauces and the care taken in cooking all excellent. It's restaurant quality food from a takeaway. I had half squid and half prawns. I wish I had chosen skinny fries though, big chips were a bit bland.

   Quality food. I got the buttermilk chicken "kebab". The chicken was super crispy and flavourful, got a big portion that lasted me to lunch the next day, and was very reasonably priced. I also tried the salt & chili squid that a friend got and it was also really good. The squid was nice and creamy and not rubbery. My only complaint was that mine was just a touch too salty.

   Really great take-away. I got the Prawn Salt and Chilli box and chips. A step above most takeaways, lovely flavours and non-greasy chips. Decent prices, especially for what you get. I can see why there was a queue before they even opened.

   Really tasty food. Theres a bit of a wait but its worth it. Everything's really fresh. I've been here twice now. Their menu has something for everyone including vegetarian options. Chips are lovely and the batter is crispy and light. Prices are very reasonable and portions are big. Will definitely be back again
