The fact there are so many people being turned away when they come in from the street looking for a table is an indication in itself how good this restaurant really is. Myself and my wife enjoyed our second foray into Mexican food after a rather subdued experience at another Edinburgh based Mexican food establishment. Very very nice meal and highly recommended place to visit for a relaxed and enjoyable meal.

As it’s name suggest this a Texan/Mexican restaurant.
If you like your Margaritas you can get 'em here!
Really good food, I would come here again and again and I recommend it.

Fresh homemade food a cut above the rest. I loved the popcorn they give you as you sit down. Never eaten Carnitas before but I will be back if only for that . Frozen margaritas were tart and refreshing and get you a lot tipsier than you think. all in all a great experience and a bill to let you survive the credit crunch/recession/depression.

Despite not being a huge fan of tex mex food I was really impressed when I visited this Thistle St restaurant. The menu is varied, serving up unusual twists on classic tex mex dishes. I can recommend the steak enchiladas as well as the chilli - both were fresh, filling and tasty. The decor is bright and modern (lots of lime green and pink) and I found the staff to be relaxed and friendly. They also serve great cocktails and have a wide selection of wines and beers. Another great little restaurant on Thistle St - fast becoming my favourite street in Edinburgh for eating and drinking.

Simply an excellent texmex. All the food tastes homecooked and is served with attention to how it looks as well as taste. The slowcooked pork was an absolute revelation. Good portion size and everything was a joy to eat. Also they have partitions between a row of small tables, which gives you a feeling of cosy privacy in what is quite a small restaurant. Decently prived and well cooked, and I agree the flamey flamey tequila thing is exciting to watch!

Hi I travel between London and Edinburgh a lot. Tried many Mexicans in both towns have my favorites in London but had failed miserably in Edinburgh. Till i stumbled on Tex Mex tiny intimate restaurant tucked away behind George St. Brightly colored in primary tones. Sat down with a work colleague and a blond waitress gave us some free spicy popcorn to eat whilst we looked at the menu and ordered drinks. We had a pitcher of frozen Margarita....sharp clean and very tasty. I ordered Nachos Grande it was huge so I had to share. Both of us went for their flaming fajitas. Arrived with a huge Woosh of flame as they poured tequila over the top. The waitresses must be flame proof. Great theater and the best #Fajita i have eaten either side of the "pond". Had a great time been back three times so far and would also recommend their burgers.
