Prestonpans, Mexican Restaurant Guide

“It’s good to see innovative and regular changes to the menu”, say fans of these “enjoyable” Mexican street-food operations, which win many nominations for their “cheap ’n’ cheerful formula, including a “fresh and flavourful” menu majoring in tacos, quesadillas and tostadas”. On the downside, for long-term fans, “the food doesn’t seem as fresh as it used to years ago, by which standard it feels mass produced”.

On the way into Leith from the city centre, this funky cantina was launched in 2023 as part of a hot sauce-making company (in a building saved by local campaigning). No survey feedback as yet, but numerous press and online reviewers have the serious hots for the place and its made-to-order, hand-pressed tacos. You can try all the sauces and buy them on your way out. For a hip cheap eat, perhaps brunch, it looks just the ticket.
