Las Iguanas - Liverpool United Kingdom

If you're in Liverpool One and looking for a restaurant to dine in, I would suggest avoiding Las Iguanas. While the service was excellent, unfortunately, the food was a huge disappointment. The BBQ jerk chicken, which is advertised as spicy, had no taste at all. Instead of the advertised heat, it was overwhelmingly sweet, which was not to my liking. It was quite disappointing! It's frustrating when a restaurant puts a dish on its menu but doesn't cook it properly. The BBQ jerk chicken lacked flavor, and the sweetness was overpowering. In my opinion, Las Iguanas should not be offering a dish that they cannot prepare correctly. Although the service was great, the food quality was a significant letdown. It's a shame, as the restaurant has a great ambiance and atmosphere. But when it comes to the food, it doesn't deliver on its promise. Overall, if you're looking for good food, I wouldn't recommend Las Iguanas in Liverpool One. The BBQ jerk chicken lacked flavor and was too sweet for my taste, and it's disappointing that a restaurant would offer a dish that they can't prepare well. It's better to look elsewhere for a satisfying meal.

Great cocktails and staff. Food isn't amazing. They need more space for people who are just going to the bar. Would recommend going here for a casual meal and some drinks.

This is my favourite Tapas restaurant in Liverpool. This place has everything from fantastic value to great service and a fine selection of cocktails and drinks. They have an extensive range of Latin American Tapas dishes as well as a selection of main courses for those with a bigger appetite They offer five Tapas dishes for £20 at selected times and this is usually enough for two if you get a garlic bread or some nachos on the side. The food always comes quickly, is well presented and tastes great. I would recommend the salmon, prawn and orange salad, the meatballs, the mussels, the lamp parcels and the nachos. All of which are mouth-watering. They have a great post dinner liqueur coffee menu as well as a range of sugar cane rums aged across various years, these slip down a treat! I've eaten here five times now and have been satisfied every time!

Starting in a quiet Bristol street, Las Iguanas has taken off and now there are 22 restaurants in the UK. Specialising in freshly cooked latino food, this is one restaurant that stands out from the mediocre Mediterranean style. OMG the menu is ridiculous there is just too much to choose from! I went for tapas as I thought it would be quite small and manageable, but I was deceived, and then left with the choice of whether to leave it and deal with dessert or not. In the end, I had to finish as much as I could without exploding and then wait a while for the digestive juices to kick in. And then look at the desserts. Tapas is 3 dishes for £12.60, which is practically the alternative to a main meal, although there is a great early bird menu which is cheap as chips. For dessert I had the mango and passionfruit cheesecake, which I managed to cram into my already groaning belly. I just had to remind myself to do up my pants before I stood up, although I would have suffered the embarrassment because the food was so delicious! The service is good too the staff are pleasant and friendly and you can just go in and sit at the bar if you want, which is sometimes fun as all the glass fronted restaurants on this side of Liverpool One give you a great opportunity to people watch. The drinks menu is quite impressive too, and they even cater for kids, so whether you're a wino with an appetite or a 6 year old pest, you'll be looked after. All I need now is someone to accompany me so I can start working my way through that menu.....

If you like to feast on Latin American cuisine, Las Iguanas offers a generous menu from lunch time onwards. On my first visit to this glitzy looking restaurant, I was attracted to their lunch deal as sign posted outside which was apparently £6.90 for a starter, main and drink but when I got my bill, it ended up £8.90 with the extra £2 going towards my drink and starter; it was quite misleading and not obvious. However, I do applaud the food which was of great quality. The starter consisting of a spicy chicken filled enchilada was minimal but the main course of spiced 1/2 pound burger, salad and fries was enough to fill my stomach so I did not have room for desserts (maybe next time when I shall prepare to build up more hunger)! I was pleased with the service and timing when I received my dishes; the food was served hot and tasted fresh. Las Iguanas is a little expensive. If you're looking for a bit of South American treat though, Las Iguanas is a decent choice.
