    Oh delicious Bibi's! How did it take me so long to visit you? Now I know what I've been missing out…read moreon all this time. As other reviews have said, this place is small and you will need a booking most nights of the week. I phoned a few days in advance and could only get a table for 8pm on a Wednesday - they try to do their dinner service in two seatings, so it's either pre theatre if you're in early, or a la carte at the 8pm seating. When we arrived our table wasn't ready and so we were told to sit at another one, but then those guests arrived and so we moved to stand up again. The space is really small and so it's a little pokey/awkward - especially as the group who were at our table were asked to finish up and one of the guests seemed really miffed about this. Anyway, we were seated and given some menus, tortillas and margaritas while looking over the menu. I ordered the empanadilla with beef, chorizo & cheese to start, followed by the taco station. I had definitely scoffed too many tortillas but the empanadilla was delicious - served with a lovely sour cream sauce and actually quite big for a starter. The tacos were a mix of crispy corn and soft shell tacos and you can choose whatever fillings you want from about 8 options. I had refried bean, salmon and chicken which were all lovely. The chicken had some apple mixed through it which was odd but a nice twist. Our bill was about £24 each including tip and soft drinks and service was super friendly and helpful, even though they were clearly rushed off their feet. I can't wait to go back!

    Ok, so perhaps I may have been a little harsh the first time around. Having been spoiled most of my…read morelife with some of the best authentic Mexican food around, I have extremely high standards. After another strenuous workout session with our trainer in Kelvingrove Park, we were ravenous. We quickly popped home to change, and headed out. Lumberjack suggested Bibi's, which is down the road from our flat... I was hesitant, but I figured I would give it another go. Random aside... funnily enough, over dinner the other night with a fellow American, we were just discussing how British interpretation of Mexican food is sooooo beyond off. These attempts are noted, but never satisfy the bill. She was telling me about her adventures of seeking Mexican in London... while I explained I've given up, and have been fulfilling my Mexican food needs at home with my very own tortilla press. *sigh* Anyway, so I approached Bibi's with the mentality "this is not Mexican food... this is not Mexican food". Upon arriving, we were sat at our table by the very friendly hostess and served complementary margarita shots. Half of the 10/11 tables were occupied, which included a birthday party. The service was great and friendly. We were served chips and salsa, which I was pretty pleased with. Followed by a chicken quesadilla start... also pretty tasty. Then we both had beef burritos... now these burritos were OK, but it was like they used Hormel canned chili (google if you're not familiar) with chunks of CARROTS for the burrito filling. I always tell my friends back in Mexico about the things they serve here in the UK, and we all get a real kick out of it because it's so not Mexican (especially the chunks of carrots in burritos). I only ate about half of it and I was done. So if you take the approach that this is not real Mexican food, then you'll be pleased with the freshness and satisfied. I've bumped up the rating by one star because of that said approach.

    So I'm a bit of a burrito fan and there's a lot of new burrito happenings in Glasgow - are burritos…read morethe new burgers? Maybe pizza has already taken that crown. Anyway, I don't know much about Tortilla apart from that it's a chain and just opened at Silverburn, and seeing as I needed to go to Paperchase anyway, decided to go here for lunch. Tortilla is where Aunty Anne's used to be (Aunty Anne's has just moved to a central spot in Silverburn so don't fret if you're a pretzel love), near Tesco/Cineworld and isn't the biggest place - there's a seating area but it's definitely smaller than the rest of the places in the food court/cinema area. The set up is a bit like Pinto/Barburrito/Chipotle - order at the counter and they make your burrito fresh to order, then you take your food and get a seat. I went for my standard order - a naked burrito with pork, sour cream, cheese and mild salsa. They have an choice of rice - coriander or tomato, as well as a few more salsa options than I'm used to but overall the experience is pretty standard. Meat options include chicken, beef, pork or veggies. I also liked that you have the choice between a medium and large burrito. I'm sure the people in front of me were charged extra for sour cream and cheese, but I don't think I was so I'm not quite sure about that - maybe it was just my lucky day (the menu does say that sour cream/cheese are extras). I also got a can of Fanta and it came to about £6 all up which isn't bad for a lunch in Silverburn. I took a seat and dived into my naked burrito. And you know what, it was damn good. A nice amount of pork and other toppings and the rice was really nice (I had coriander rice). A good sized meal, nicely filling without being too crazy and tasty. I added some of the hot sauce which is on the tables too for a bit of an extra kick. All up, I was impressed. They also do quesadillas (chicken only) and nachos but only after 3pm. WHY?! What if I want that for lunch?! So weird. Other things to note: they do veggie options (not sure about vegan) and cater for gluten free/coeliac, and the chicken is halal. They have a whole lot of literature about the "provenance" of the food which is a bit OTT to me, and while they are a chain they apparently aren't part of a bigger group so try to pitch themselves as a little guy. The seating is a little awkward as you're right near the walkway and I found there was quite a lot of people standing right over my shoulder to read the menu - so don't sit on the outer seating bit if that might bother you (it sure as hell bothered me). Would I go again? Yes - I don't love the food options in Silverburn I have to say, and I do love a burrito so this is probably going to be quite high on my eating options list when I'm at Silverburn.

    A wee review update and still a very strong 5 stars from me!…read more Cubatas is definitely one of my favourite restaurants in Glasgow, I've now had countless meals here and enjoyed exceptional food and friendly, attentive service each time. We often take our little boy with us and they are so lovely to him, I order him a couple of dishes as soon as we arrive and these are brought out not long after we have him settled in his highchair and our drinks have arrived. It's brilliant as food keeps him occupied and we can relax and enjoy our food too. I force myself to order some dishes I haven't tried before - it's so easy to stick with the ones I have tried and I LOVE - and each time I discover another mouth watering dish. One of my new favourites is the pork cheek, melt in the mouth, jam packed full of flavour and so moreish. Added to some regular favourites such as the spicy prawns, paella, patatas bravas and their delicious salad dishes and you get a wonderfully varied meal. My top tip is to order a basket of bread for the table, the sauces and oils that accompany the dishes are divine and I love mopping them up with a chunk of soft fluffy bread. It's great going to Cubatas in a big group, with people who are happy sharing. My ideal would be to go and order one of everything off the menu, heaven :) These guys also do gift vouchers, I know as I bought my mum and dad some for Christmas. We've taken them for dinner here a few times and they love it!

    Well what do you do after working out? Stuff your face uncontrollably until it hurts to breathe! I…read morelove this feeling, I am full equals happiness. Let's start with Bread which couldn't be any fresher. Roasted almonds and nachos. The nachos were different served up with BBQ rather than salsa, this might actually be a new thing for me. The great thing about tapas is that you can order everything and everyone just shares. Pataas Bravas, marrocon kebabs, fired cheese, chorizo in pastry..... Yes pastry! Prawns in garlic, fajitas, A pork dish, chicken with a batter and colorful sauce, meatballs and a massive paella, I'm sure there has been a few dishes I've missed. Feeling full yet? A tapas of deserts oh my goodness. A baileys cheese cake, check! Creme brûlée....check something that tastes of butterscotch. Tiramisu ooofffft! Some other spongy thing and a walnut cake. Man I've just re lived this experience....so good! Staff friendly and great food make this my perfect match!!

We saw staring at us from a far the Gumbo sign, so we looked at each other and we said, ok. Rawk! It wasn't too busy, we were greeted by a friendly staff member and we said we were here for your food. We got a seat at a booth and he brought us over the menu. I felt there was so much to choose from, to be honest I was a bit overwhelmed. You know when you're at a restaurant and there's a few things you don't like so that helps in elimination for your final decision. Well, this had nearly everything I like on it. Oh bums! We had a few questions, one being. Kind sir, what are these Hush Puppies you sell? Well, there are made from corn bread and are filled with sweetcorn and jalapeños. My man said oh yes to them and a plate of their finest chicken gumbo please. I settled for a rack of ribs, man they were huge. They were so big they were bigger than my hands. I had a cheeky wee side of onion rings, which I'm glad I ordered. I felt the ribs were a bit undercooked for me as they were still pink in the middle. They tastied lovely but I found them hard to eat. I had to ask for a steak knife because I couldn't bite the meat off the bones. I need that meat just to slide off my bones. Oo er! Overall it was a lovely experience. The staff were really nice and the decor has certainly improved from the Common Rooms days. I would definitely go back and try something else from their menu. I fancy a Po' Boy sub next time. The pulled pork one is certainly pulling me in. Noms!
