A popular hangout, usually very crowded on the weekends (expect a 20 minute wait on a Friday/Saturday night) and also famous for their Happy Hour, Las Iguanas seems to offer something for everyone.
Their nachos are possibly the best in town- served with just the right amounts of cheese, salsa, guacamole and sour cream. This one is a favorite, and you'll usually see most tables ordering it.
The patatas bravas are my second favorite thing on the menu - they're simply bite-size potatoes with just the right amount of spice - and served with creamy dip.
This time, we tried the taco sharing platter - its creative, you are given the tortillas and all the fillings (there's about 6 choices on the menu to select from) and you can make it however you like. My favorite filling was the mushrooms, although they were very oily. The butternut squash and chickpea filling was strictly okay - it was too tomato-ey and had the consistency of salsa, which was a bit repetitive since we already had the nachos (😄).
For the mains, the enchilada was delicious, served with rice and black beans. The chicken burrito was not as good as expected, and lacking in flavor. Same goes for the veggie chilli.
Although the mains were rather hit and miss, this is still a place high on my list. Do check it out 😄
Still scores highly as one of my favourite restaurants in Reading. Friendly staff, atmosphere is always full of energy. Some nights live music is played with adds the energy even more. Great place to go for cocktails with their happy hour on throughout most of the week. Food is good and would recommend their Lunch deal they do which consists of cheaper meal prices. Definitely worth the money.
Great food and fab cocktails!. This place always seems busy so always has a good atmosphere. The menu is huge and the prices are quite reasonable. There is a good selection of cocktails and these are excellent value for money, especially during Happy Hour
