Up there with one of the best bottomless in Newcastle. Super fast service they take your next drink order as they bring you your drink. Food is lovely, just the right amount if you’re out for a drink. Really flavourful and something totally different. Good price for what you’re getting, think we had about 10-15 drinks so it’s well worth the price! Also, didn’t apply to us but I did notice they had brilliant dietary options for everyone (gluten free etc) Amazing service from Ana she couldn’t do enough for us and was super quick, impressively so! Will be returning soon to try their main menu. Massively recommend!

One of the party was allergic to gluten and the server was brilliant at checking that everything ordered was OK, including talking about the frying oil for the chips and the marinade for the beef - Las Iguanas is always excellent around food allergies and this visit was no exception - the server was Katie/Katy and was absolutely lovely.

The food here is amazing. Scanning over the menu, there are clearly marked food items that can be made gluten-free on request. I shared the taco board among two, which came with a variety of small dishes and tacos that are naturally gluten-free. I found the gluten-free and vegetarian options on the taco board limited to two items. Although it's only marked as one on the menu, our server made us aware that the vege chilli was gluten-free but was at risk of contamination and, therefore not marked. Other members of the party had the Brazilian curry with white fish and enchiladas with Chipotle chicken. Both would recommend the dishes. However, it was felt that the enchiladas would have been nicer with more chicken. The atmosphere here was amazing. However, i felt the music was quite loud for a family dinner and would recommend maybe going earlier in the afternoon when it might be quieter.
