Sadly the fast-food options for Mexican were better than this was.

El Chapo, as the name suggests is a Tex-Mex restaurant. Their cocktails (especially the Classic and…read moreFrozen Margaritas) are superb, food is good with lots of vegetarian (can be veganised on request) and gluten-free options. Both the veggie soft and hard shell tacos are delicious, as is the sharing breadboard starter. Though I wasn't a fan of the veggie burrito - thought it lacked flavour. There's a fantastic outside area which is a suntrap on summer afternoons/ early evenings - lovely to relax in. Plus, El Chapo run a range of daily offers, eg Taco Tuesdays during which you can order a Taco dish and get a Frozen Margarita for only £1.00. Have enjoyed dinning here a few times and would recommend.

The tacos were not good at all: just meat and a crispy taco shell. No cheese, no lettuce, no…read moretomato, just meat. A simple glance at an El Paso taco box in Sainsbury's will tell them what goes into a taco. The soft prawn taco was supposed to have salsa on it. Nope, just some creamy sauce, no salsa. The margarita had the salt caked onto one side only. Read a book about how to salt the rim of a glass for a margarita people! Not hard to do. The inside is nice. But the food was not, esp not worth the price. I doubt we'll ever return. Sorry, we wanted to like it.

Another competitor in the Mexican fast food market in Belfast, with more or less the usual range of…read moreformats (burrito, fajita, burrito bowl, taco) and choice of beef, pork, chicken or peppers as filling. Tacos are soft by default, which I think makes good sense in terms of trying to hold them together when eating them. I'm happy enough about the food but after having to wait for weeks turning to months for this place to open, they could have given more consideration to the people-flow aspects of design and layout. If the place is busy, the queue obstructs the flow of people from counter to seating. Then anybody sitting by the window has to cut through the queue to access the waste bins. Surely there are better ways of doing this. The counter could have been operated in the opposite direction with the queue directed anticlockwise around the wall by a balustrade. Then anybody leaving the counter could access all seating areas and bins without crossing the queue or squeezing past it.

Generous portions, really flavourful food and staff were extremely helpful advising about spice/ heat levels. Plenty of tables but with a quick flow of customers so it's relatively easy to get seated. Window-side tables are great for a spot of people watching with views onto the street outside. Would recommend and will return.

Belfast has a new food utopia! Forget Boojum - Mexican burritos are so last year. What if I told…read moreyou that you could eat a curry with your hands? You'd think I was mad, wouldn't you? Well I' not mad because Kurrito has just blown my mind and my taste buds. Sorry if this review seems a little all over the place, I'm still in food delirium. Right, I'm going to try and explain this is a way that everyone will understand - this is A CURRY BURRITO! The format of the place is similar to Boojum actually - you pick your meat and then you pick you additional salads, veg and sauce. I went for chicken of which they had two different types, medium and hot (in terms of spice obviously). The difference (from Boojum) apart from the curry thing I think I mentioned is that there is no queue and the portions are absolutely massive. I pretty much got a whole curry meal in a wrap. The taste was amazing, really flavoursome and authentic - absolutely no hint of processing - this is the real deal. A curry burrito will only set you back £5! This is a huge lunch - I actually ended up asking for some more foil to wrap up my leftovers for later. You can sit in or take away! I love this place and will definitely be back, probably when I'm hungover and in the need of a mega cure!

The Queso as you can see from my attached picture was basically a table spoon full, the chips were caked in salt and stale. My burrito bowl was missing the extra Queso that I requested was put into it. Also I'm upset my bowl was a quarter empty when everyone else who had ordered had there's filled up to the top.

It's nice to find a place that has big windows for looking out at a gorgeous day and also patio seating for those who want to feel the sunshine on their face.

I decided on the tempura-battered cod fish tacos and they were really good, especially the chipotle ranch sauce (or whatever creamy spicy something was on them!).

I know it's target time is evening and well into the night to cater for those rather worse for wear, but the chefs actually do make some very tasty food!!

I would thoroughly recommend as a reasonable quality fast food joint!!

Quite frankly if I hadn't had a few drinks I wouldn't have set foot in this place. The food, decor and ambience was dire.

Horrible place which serves horrible food and I certainly will not return.

The burritos come with a healthy serving of salad and a few nachos! The whole set up is great - seats around 30 people and service is fast enough for you to grab some great food on your lunch break!
