Really good healthy Mexican food not as good as Guzman Gomez but still quite nice

Good. Conspicuous lack of sides. Appreciated the ironic placement of the 'Order Here ' sign, blocking the view of the menu

The problem with this place is that it indubitably gets compared to GYG. Something about apples and oranges but this is more like comparing a Pink Lady with a Granny Smith. I 've come twice this week, once for lunch and once for tea on a Friday night. Not a good place if in a hurry. Takes a while if there 's a queue (cheers to the Karen in front of us with an order of about 100 items). Possibly understaffed, only ever one server on at a time. Once you 're up you 're up though so be ready to order. On the topic, the 'Order Here ' sign? Worst positioning possible. The best way to describe it is Subway but Mexican. In that regard it 's kinda gyg with a bit more of an 'Eat Fresh ' vibe. Again though; apples and oranges. Music? Some hits but also some songs are very miss. Seats quite low. Is that a bad thing I 'm not sure but definitely very low seats. Child seat also on display. I don 't have kids though (thank goodness) so not an issue for me but good to know they 're catering for everyone. Pros: large degree of customisation available. Cons: large degree of customisation available. Thankfully they offer suggestions. I like this. On the Friday I ran a burrito featuring pork, white rice, beans, sour cream, guac, tomato, onion and corn salsas, cheese, lime juice and chipotle sauce. Can recommend this combo. The mix of salsas was delightfully refreshing. The sauce with a mild heat that was perfect for my sensitive bowels. I had the red chilli sauce on my first time here and while delicious and surprisingly easy on the heat at the time, it had an afterburn that left me dreading the final 'farewell ' of the sauce. Biggest drawback is no sides available. Big let down. The burrito only provides mild satiation. Great for lunch, not so much for dinner. Add some potato chips to the menu and winner for sure. They proudly advertise the number of donated meals. I 'm all for doing your bit for the world but the 1:1 ratio of donated:purchased meals does make me think maybe I 'm paying too much? Definitely run the tomato+onion+corn salsa combo. My goodness. Neon lights are always cool too.

Fact 1: The food is better than GYG. Fact 2: It's great eating food knowing you are making a difference. Fact 3: The food can be eaten by vegans and has gluten free options.

Have always had great service. No issues.
