We went here after finding out that the nearby GBK was closed for maintenance. I know, I know, it's a Mexican chain but we were in the mood for burgers and having trekked over town specifically to get to GBK we ordered some anyway. Yes, we were those people. Sorry.
The black bean and beetroot burger sounded interesting but unfortunately was off the menu, so I joined my companion in ordering a beef burger, with extra Emmental cheese. Unsurprisingly it was cooked well done, which isn't how I like my beef, but it was okay. You can't expect medium in a chain which isn't a burger chain. The brioche bun was lovely and fluffy and the slaw and fries were tasty.
We had ordered sweet potato fries instead of French fries, but our server let us keep the regular fries on the house as it took some time to bring over a couple of portions of the sweet potato fries we had originally asked for. It was a mistake in a fairly quiet restaurant, but it was handled graciously and our waiter was friendly and apologetic.
Bill was around £26 for mains and drinks for two, with a 25% student discount on food. Fairly average, but that's all we needed. Next time we'll try some proper Mexican food and see if it's any better. read more
