Reviews
Have had Taco chips from here on two occasions. Love the sauces, meat, cheese ratio & flavour, however, my second experience yesterday proved a tad disappointing. Very few chips in the container. At €8 I'd expect a far better portion of chips. Containers are quite slim though.
Fabulous food and really delicious
