Was a last minute plan to have dinner at Las Iguanas in Milton Keynes, so it was really crowded and had a 30 minute waiting time. The staff was however very friendly and accommodating and suggested that we sit at the bar area, which also had smaller tables and chairs and we could order drinks and food there too! So we went for it. We started with a couple of pina coladas and then ordered a few starters and sides to share instead of a 3 course meal. The tapas dishes (3 sharing dishes for 14.40) – lamb empanadas, haddock croquettes and the garlicky mushroom quesadila were okay,not great. But the sides (around 3.50 each) – cassava fries and patatas bravas were quite nice. Overall a good experience – nice ambience, friendly staff and decent food instagram.com
The food was excellent, healthier than we expected! There were plenty of gluten free and vegan options available and the wait staff were very friendly.
My husband took me here for my birthday dinner last year. The place looks very welcoming from the birds eye view with a bar and a waiting lounge and well lit for a summer evening. But the drinks were awful. My husband ordered a LIT and he says it is the worst he has ever had. I went for Cosmo and I have certainly had much better ones. Nothing to die for in drinks and that gave me a neg. indication of the place. But when we ordered our food, it was AMAZING! I am a Mexican cuisine fan and this place offers one of the finest dishes when it comes to Authentic Mexican. No complains with the food! But the place is very cluttered. seating arrangements not so appealing…. For the kind of money you pay, you would want a place where you can sit and eat at peace. Loud music and you feel like eat as quickly as you can and LEAVE!
Tasteful Buds Review. Hungry, excited and anxious, I anticipated my experience at Las Iguanas a restaurant built on the traditions of Latin American-Indian, Spanish, Portuguese and African cuisine. As an avid and passionate lover of all things Latin, Las Iguanas could do no wrong. Walking through its florescent doors and into a vibrant room filled with coloured furniture and a salsa club-like ambiance, I was immediately transported. The wait staff were polite yet confident, greeting me with an air of warmth and welcome as if I had arrived to a post-siesta Caribbean Rum Punch party. We were offered a generous booth at the head of the restaurant, alongside a bright and stylised backdrop of Rio de Janeiro and it felt as though I was sitting at my own kitchen table, looking out of an open window onto the beautiful city below. Needless to say, a life-like scene was set for my meal that would follow. The Las Iguanas menu is plentiful, offering a plethora of starters, mains, desserts and Happy Hour specials, a in range of Mexican and Brazilian styles I was spoilt for choice and the only limitation was the depth of my stomach. Staying on top of modern-day menu needs, I also noticed plenty of gluten free and vegetarian options dotted throughout the menu. As a personal favourite and well-known party starter, I chose the Nachos and Chill Con Carne. Im always impressed when so-described chilli dishes deliver what they profess, and Las Iguanas ticked all of my chilli boxes; aromatic, spicy and bitey, perfectly partnered with crispy tortilla chips. Id never heard of or tried Vatapa Gambas before (Brazilian shrimp stew made from coconut milk and nuts), but as an adventurous diner, I thought it fitting to sample something new to me but traditional to the cuisine. I was delighted by the combination of smoky aromas and flavours, matched with plump shrimp in a creamy coconut sauce, all melting together perfectly in a pan. Sprinkles of dried coconut added an extra layer of texture and taste, and were a nice crunchy touch to the dish. To allow myself the full experience, I opted for dessert: Churros with a side of chocolate ganache for dipping. The light, cinnamon encrusted dough worked well with the intensely dark decadence of the ganache, simple yet more-ish and a perfect end to my traditional tasting experience. I could have happily slumped into a hammock for a well-deserved siesta. The variety of dishes and fusion feasts, the warm and inviting atmosphere, and the perfect replication of its originating culture makes for a Las Iguanas recipe for success and one that I am happy to enjoy again soon.
