Long live Iguana! This is possibly the first Mexican restaurant to have popped up here in the city center, and it's been good all these years. My go-to's: tacos al pastor & fried ice cream.
Carlos PardoJuly 21, 2018Very good place in town, fresh and deep mexican flavors, perfectly balanced frozen margaritas and friendly staff. I highly recommend. Pricing is in the medium-high range. Ambiance is quiet in summer.
KaylaApril 1, 2014Best of Pest!!!! Excellent homemade tortillas. I am so happy I found this place it is the best Mexican food I've had in Europe and our waitress was great! I will definitely return! Like next week! :D
MartaJanuary 8, 2018Good Mexican food for Central European standards. Waiters are attentive and a bit older then the usual 20sth you see in most Bp places (yay!). Very good drinks. Cozy and homey place. Pet-friendly!- One of the best mexican restaurants in Budapest. Fajitas and chimichanga I just can recomend. Good atmosphare.
- P̸̮я¡ň¢εƧ̷̜̌̋ş NouraMay 15, 2017Loved the jalapeño popper and Burrito.. One of the best Maxican Restaurant in Budapest
Ask for Diána - she took terrific care of us. Skip the margarita and go right for their house beer with salt & lime. Rated on Untappd! Appetizer for two is super, jalapeño soup as well.
- Lizette PerezOctober 12, 2017Pepino picante cocktail, tacos al pastor & corn chowder soup... I am one happy camper. Oh and the tacos already include guacamole the way real tacos should!!
The best Mexican restaurant in Budapest. The beer with salt and lime is really tasty! I love the combo plates (plate with one enchilada, taco and a burrito).
stefanie stakenburgFebruary 18, 2015A very cute place, the food was delicious and the waitresses very friendly, make sure to try the chocolate brownie with ice cream for dessert, it was incredebly tasty
Marcos Garcia FuentesAugust 28, 2021I decided to have the two most cited things in 4square: Margarita & fajitas. I can confirm you can’t go wrong with them. Both delicious.
Zsanett SandorFebruary 3, 2016Great atmosphere,great food,great service. Jalapeno poppers are hotter than expected still amazing with that sauce. Iguana brownie is a must! The burrito with mashed beans is awesome!!!
Enrico De MaioJanuary 26, 2016Nice Mexican food one of the best in Budapest. If you ever never tried Mexican before this is the right place. Try Combo plates to have a bit of everything
Marco MarquezMarch 13The food here is delicious, is the only Mexican food here in Budapest that really got the Mexican flavor. I’m Mexican so I approved this place.
Eleonora MartaFebruary 9, 2016I really like this place. Food is really good, nice service and I just looove their jars of Strawberry Margarita! It is nice to sit outside in the summer time.- József VeszaOctober 14, 2014Broad selection of foods (vegetarian and less spicy options are also available). The quality of both the meals and the service was great, would definitely recommend the place.
Marie ValassisSeptember 16, 2019Waiters very nice, atmosphere 10/10 would recommend, cocktail game strong!!! In short, your pickle will be tickled!!!! Kisses, the 5 amigas 2/2
Jackie FMarch 30, 2018Upbeat environment, great portion sizes, cheap drinks and free tap water! Try the chicken fajitas, they were delicious! Highly recommend 😊
The homemade tortilla chips is awesome! Tasty food and very cool tequila cocktails 🌯🌮
Serhat AkbıyıkMay 1, 2017Perfect service and taste, smiley faces.. have to visit if you come to budapest..
Erzsebet SzilagyiFebruary 1, 2020Kid friendly! They helped with a high chair and brought extra plates so we could share (my daughter was too small to get a meal on her own). We made a mess but the staff was very nice about it.
Váci utca BlogAugust 29, 2011A házi tortilla chipszük páratlan. Kötelező előétel/sörkorcsolya a chipotle salsával. A házi sörük is kiváló! Homemade tortilla chips w/ chipotle salsa 2nd to none!¡Ándale! ¡Ándale! ¡Arriba!
- Marie ValassisSeptember 16, 2019Hello dear cool people, never have I ever experienced such an amazing explosion of flavours. Tears were flowing (tears of joy ofcourse). 1/2
Elina StrokinaJune 26, 2017Portions are enormous, take it into account when ordering or you will end up not finishing really delicious food!
Ilana ZholobovskyJuly 29, 2015All the dishes were great. Big portions, food and drinks. Good location. Not cheap but fair prices for Budapest.- Lizette PerezOctober 27, 2017I had the pastor tacos & they came with handmade tortillas... that's how good this place is.
Dávid PélyiNovember 8, 2017Love the Mexican dishes some of them a little bit overpriced. There is a great choice of tequila. Table reserving is necessary.- Rudi JakobsAugust 10, 2020Absolutely fantastic, everything. Food, Cocktails, Service. Make sure to reserve a table.
- Irass SAugust 20, 2017Good. Everything was good if U know what good means ;) place, service, mexican food - all good!
Chris Claud DayJune 30, 2019Starters wondeful. Sweetcorn chowder epic and nachos hefty portion. Rest was below average. Uninspired tacos and burrito, refried beans delicious. Ranked as best Mexican, but could be much better.
Suna YavasJuly 26, 2017Have a guatamale nacho. The staff is very kindly. Nice location bloody/Virgin Mary both very good.- If you're in the mood for something awesome, order the fajitas! It comes on a sizzling-hot metal plate with assorted goodies!
- Note that they serve Gusto Palinka! Do try one after dinner (or before!). Wish they also had the barak/apricot too.
Zoltán KeresőSeptember 10, 2014Finest Mexican eat-out in the city. Perfect place to start off the evening. They serve Budweiser too.
KrinyaAugust 17, 2011The best tex-mex cuisine in town. Little bit expensive, but worth it! Jalapeno poppers and the whoop-ass chilli are recommended. :-)- Filip CernakJuly 10, 2016It's not the best American/Mexican restaurant in the world, but it's pretty good. You won't be disappointed.
- R FarmerSeptember 20, 2018Jalapeño poppers, Cadillac Margaritas, steak Fajitas. Best atmosphere in town.
Gábor M.November 11, 2016The food is tasty. Big minus for the laud modern music (not even authentic).
Petr SkovajsaFebruary 27, 2012Service is very professional and friendly. The food was fine and the cocktails were excellent. Nice place to spend an evening if u not sure what to do.
Sebastian AndersenJuly 1, 2013Go here. I was here 8 years ago and it was good. Now its even better. Well worth a visit.
The oldest texmex restaurant in Budapest, try the zucchini-chicken quesadillas
Their margarita is the best in town! We drink the two mixed, half lime half strawberry
- Sakis KotisisAugust 18, 2019Fajitas were passable, but the person who's prepared the meal has only seen how it from a video. Was given a knife and fork to eat fajitas ffs! Only 3 fajitas included (!), rest were charged extra!!
Best Mexian restaurant! Huge portions, incredibly tasty food!
Tiina RajasaloAugust 8, 2014House made tortilla chips and tequila cocktails are great, service could be a bit friendlier.
Good Jalapeño poppers. Decent for a Mexican fix especially considering that you are in central/eastern Europe.

"The most amazing building in Budapest. The visit is short but worth it for the low price. Buy the ticket in advance, they sell out. You won't miss much if you take the tour in another language."
