Bodega Tollx - Edinburgh

We almost ordered drinks while trying our best Spanish and were delighted to be served beer in a chilled glass—a lovely touch that made a difference! Then, we were presented with a list of specials by a waitress who clearly had a passion for food, which was another encouraging sign. We started with a fresh and appetizing green pepper appetizer, which paired wonderfully with our main course. For our main dish, we ordered four tacos: beef, chicken, shrimp, and broccoli from the specials, along with scallion fries. Each taco came with two small servings, so two of us could enjoy a variety of flavors. The beef was tender and perfectly cooked, served in a crispy shell. Each taco featured a layer of fresh salad and guacamole that tasted authentic. The buffalo chicken taco was accompanied by blue cheese, which was a bit adventurous for me, given that my only experience with blue cheese had been with crackers and wine, but I appreciated the flavor nonetheless. The shrimp were enormous; I even joked that they could have been lobster! They were fresh, juicy, and had a sweet flavor that I loved. Finally, we tried the broccoli, which was coated in a delightful tempura batter, accompanied by a cauliflower purée—what a spectacular combination of cool Mexican salsa, tacos, and aromatic curry! The seasoned fries were a fantastic side to complement any dish. By the time we left, I felt as though we had just returned from a whirlwind tour of iconic destinations like Chichen Itza, the Empire State Building, the Louvre, the Great Wall of China, and the Taj Mahal. The prices were reasonable, and overall it was an excellent dining experience!

Amazing dining experience! I was pleasantly surprised! The ceviche was delightful, the tacos were excellent, and the churros were simply fantastic! Definitely worth a visit!
