Not sure if it's still there but Signor Coconuts was pretty tasty in Newport. I have a feeling it may have closed down though frown

There's a Chiquito down the 'bay. It's opposite the County Hall, within the Red Dragon Centre's car park (where the cinema is).

The only restaurant that I have found that comes close to mexican food is Chillis but that is at the Oracle in Reading. Regarding the reading mexican units, they are nothing like real mexican food.

If you fancy a trip over the bridge I can highly recommend Casa Mexicana in Bristol. Superb.

Chimi Changa in the the St.Davids Centre, I had the chicken and green chilli wrap and fair to say I almost shat my pants, really nice food, but very spicy with all those chillies.
