The enthusiasm shows through in their service, which is energetic, helpful and knowledgable. They have a really varied range of food to buy for immediate consumption for vegetarian and vegan food fans and, a wide range of ingredients to help you make similar lovely things at home. Definitely worth a try even if your food identity doesn't begin with a "V"

However, my last visit has been just that, my LAST, as it's now under new ownership. They may be using the previous recipes but the standard of service has certainly dropped, portions have been noticeably reduced with noticeable price increases. I dared to politely complain and was confronted by a rude woman (I can only assume was the new owner) who informed me that I was obviously getting too much previously. Crumbs is no longer my value for money go to place for lunch with 2 friends and we are finding alternatives.

I highly recommend going for lunch, where there are appetizers under £3, wine and beer for £2 (one glass only), and many mains for £7.50-8.50. For vegetarians, vegan, and gluten free folks - they have a very extensive menu that is very clearly marked. ( I personally recommend the vegetarian enchilada.)

Not a bad place for a date at all! ~ Customer Service: The waitress who served us was excellent. Really friendly, prompt, and since it was Valentine's Day we even got served some complimentary wine for 2. The food came out in no time at all - can't fault that! Overall, absolutely no complaints about the service. Even though it was a really busy night, things still went smoothly. ~ Food: Delicious! We ordered: - 2 Taco Planks (£12 for 2): There was a variety of options you can choose for toppings on the grilled soft tortilla and we opted for the pork and the garlic chili prawns. I especially loved the prawn tacos! The lime aioli sauce they used was absolutely divine. The taco planks were also a lot larger than I thought they would be. Normally, restaurants served tacos in 3s but the taco planks were HUGE! I couldn't even count how many there were! - Sea Bass Achiote (£13.95) DELICIOUS! I absolutely loved this dish and would definitely be ordering it again next time I come back. The sea bass was perfectly cooked and the crab and prawns was perfect in the tomato sauce that was served with it. Normally, I don't order fish at restaurants because fish is really hard to get right and when it's cooked wrong, it's terrible! However, I can safely report that Las Iguanas KNOWS their way around fish. Incredible dish! --- I'm really pleased with my Valentine's Day meal. Going to a new place for a special occasion is always a risk, but we're really pleased with how this one went!

Looks can be deceiving as I almost left after standing out the front of a very average looking building. However felt right at home as soon as I entered the door. I was greeted immediately by the friendly owner and staff and told about the menu and recommendations. After ordering food and drinks arrived quickly and looking around the rest of the restaurant I could tell everyone was being treated like royalty. When the food arrived my mind was blown, I had ordered £7 worth yet was given a huge array of breads, rice, curry, soup and a dessert, all of which was fantastic. I cannot recommend VFS enough, I'm even considering going back to Cardiff this weekend just so I can come back here!

No British-Indian here, this is as authentic as it gets & as flavoursome too! In keeping with that it doesn't serve alcohol, but BYO is fine, and it's vegetarian. As any meat-eater (and veggie) who's eaten here will testify - why can't all veggie food taste like this! Order early if taking-away, they're very sensitive to neighbours' concerns about noise/parking, so they close v promptly!

Falafel Kitchen has become my go to for a quick and filling lunch. I will admit I didn't like…read morefalafel before I started eating here, but its reviews intrigued me. It's a very versatile restaurant, so you can take away your pitta, or take a seat and eat in. If you're not against the clock, it's also worth opting to upgrade to a plate for a proper sit down meal. My personal preference is to take away, the experience is generally seamless, you go to the counter and one of the friendly staff take your order, you take a seat and wait no longer than 10 minutes (maybe 15 during peak times) for your order. Once you've collected your food, make your way to the salad bar and indulge in the selection of sauces and fresh salad, fill your pitta to your heart's content, et voila! Wherever you choose to eat it, sit back and enjoy the flavour sensation. Carnivores, do not fear! Their schnitzel and shawarma options are great too, I personally prefer the schnitzel, and highly recommend a half and half schnitzel/falafel pitta. Out of this world. There are other options such as omelette too, but I've not had the pleasure of trying them yet. Baklava is freshly made, and I cannot encourage you enough, if it is available on the day. The only downfall is that opening times can vary. Sometimes they are open fully through the day, other times they take a break between lunch and dinner, but you are guaranteed to be fed if you arrive before 3pm most days. (Seem to be closed on Sundays & Mondays)

They serve different cakes through the week, which helps you find something different to taste with your drink when you go back there. But the best reason to visit the place is the food: Stuart and Dorothy are working hard to give you a delicious meal for a very reasonnable price. With dishes inspired from traditional french meals and a twist of welsh cooking, this is a very good place to eat lunch. Just be sure to check their Facebook page or their website to know what the day specials are - coq au vin, beef bourguinon, pâté en croute, tartiflette - all homemade! They also offer a special "Sunday lunch" which is halfway between the traditionnal Sunday roast and the french pot-au-feu. There's plenty to eat and it's really good food. The place is quite small but the music (french, of course!) and the decor, are really nice - I was really impressed by the chandeliers! If you go to Cardiff and visit the Albany Road area, this place is definitely worth a try.
