Iguanas which is a new place in west one off west street,

nice atmosphere, not bad prices, would definitely recommend it.

I agree with Donny. Viva Latino is by far the best one in the city. Don't go to the ones on West Street cos the chimichangas are more like cornish pasties than anything resembling Mexican fare.

I hear 'Tequila' is nice but apparently the music is way too loud!

I was at Tequila on Thursday last week. Had some fantastic tapas (group of 11 of us paid £10 per head, and it just kept on coming, much better value than picking individual dishes) and a couple of 2-for-1 cocktails. The service was excellent and really friendly, and the atmosphere was good too.

Not somewhere I'd personally choose to go on a Friday or Saturday night (being on West St it'll be wedged) but for a laid-back midweek night it was excellent. Two thumbs up!

(trying out the new Turkish restaurant on London Road tonight, I'll let y'all know what it's like).
