Homesick for the occasional Tex Mex dish? It was nice to find a place that finally hit the spot. While more Tex Mex than Mexican, Los Cardos is as close to authentic I've come to home. Not quite Freebirds, but still very good. Having given up on finding a decent Mexican joint, I was referred here from another expat Texan... More

Absolutely amazing, made infront of you so you know it's fresh, great flavours and great price. Best mexican ive found in Edinburgh.

Been here several times now both carrying out and sitting in and the food is always lovely. There are only a few cafe type tables but its good to eat the food while its really hot. The place is always buzzing with customers and the staff are friendly. A huge vegetarian quesidilla with sour cream, salsa +guacamole and a bottle... More

Popped in for supper after work after recommendation of a colleague. Can't believe I didn't know this was here. I ordered the Carnitas (pulled pork) quesadilla with salsa verde plus steak burrito for other half. It was huge, quite a lot of rice in the filling (too much for me) but very tasty. The pulled pork is melt in the... More

On a hungover Saturday watching telly, I stumbled over this on Just Eat, looking for something different from the usual decided to risk it - nothing more disappointing than a bad take-away, and immediately loved it! Glad the ordering is over 12 so I got to try the burrito and the quesadilla. I've been recommending this place to all my... More

Delicious, and you could feed a small family from one item. Quality AND quantity is a major thumbs up! The staff are reallllllly nice and were patient with me when I had a bit of a meltdown when faced with all of the customising options! Would agree, however, with those below that say it's a bit of a bummer that... More

I visited a few months back with a friend. Ordered a burrito. The burrito was flat! It wasn't even rolled properly. What's worse is that the rice was cold! why have warm fillings surrounded by cold rice? Anyways, i wasn't too please. It filled me but it wasn't great. Ordered from here using Just Eat. You have to spend £12... More

Returning home to Arizona after living in Edinburgh for a year and a half, people often ask me about the food in Scotland. In particular, over my first Mexican meal after having returned, my dining companions wondered if there was anything in Edinburgh that could compare. The answer is yes: Los Cardos, which is light years ahead of its competitors.... More

Los Cardos is simply my favourite takeaway in Edinburgh (though there's plenty of room to sit in!). You can't go wrong with anything on the menu, and the staff are so friendly that you'll want to return to try everything. Whilst the more familiar chicken burritos are my usual choice (personalised with black beans & the incredible salsa verde), I... More
