Burritos & Blues in Cork

24/03/2025: As a Guatemalan I’ve always loved the set up of the restaurant, the atmosphere and the friendly staff. The restaurant really has that Latin feel to it. 2 mains and a shared dessert were ordered, not long after the main was served there was a rush of people arriving so service a little slower for drinks but definitely forgivable. The 2 mains, FAJITAS de VERDURAS and the GRILLED SKIRT STEAK TAMPIQUEÑA (picture attached) were delicious and highly recommended. The Pineapple Cup to share for dessert was unfortunately a bit disappointing. Instead of watermelon there was cucumber, confirmed by vision, texture and smell. I’m pretty sure, instead of patron, there was chilli powder as there was, visually, a red powder which gathered more towards the bottom of the cup along that spicy sensation on the tongue which got more intense the more that was consumed as, like I said, the powder gathered more towards the bottom of the cup. There is as no alcoholic taste or vapour after taste of alcohol. The mango, pineapple and strawberries were delicious though but if customers are not going to get exactly what they ordered they should at the very least be notified along with the option of selecting another dessert or else the dish should be taken off the menu for the days service and an attempted cover up not attempted. Another dessert would have been ordered with absolutely no issue. I still highly recommend and will be returning but with senses on high alert for any more attempted cover ups.

23/03/2025: We booked a dome as we were a party of 8 and it was absolutely fantastic as we were all able to be involved in the one conversation as it can be hard when there as so many people. Cocktails were amazing he only thing we didn’t get as they were not on menu on the night was the ribs
