Cocina Milton Keynes

I can’t fault the place. Nice owner, nice food, nice drinks. Would be perfect if they would switch to paper straws but I’m nit picking. Had the burrito and sweet potato fries. All very tasty.

Service very slow (no mains 2 hours after getting in there). Cold food when it turned up. Not enough staff, kitchen obviously not run very well. Manager said he would fix and didn’t. Overall really poor.

The tapas plates at this restaurant are mostly deep fried or reheated. The prices are high considering the low quality of the food. The friendly staff is a silver lining in an overall disappointing dining experience. Ver carta

Apart from waiting 20 minutes to even be spoken to after sitting down our food was obviously warmed up as it came quicker than a virgin. The waitress didn’t listen to our requests at all. The final straw was being given the menu for the desserts and 6 items being unavailable on a Saturday evening. I certainly won’t be returning.

The waitress was very friendly. Our table of 7 ordered drinks and food, and within 10 minutes, our main meals arrived. Unfortunately, the food seemed to be pre-cooked and reheated, only warm at best. I mentioned this to the staff, and they apologized, but did not offer any further resolution. I will not be returning as the quality of the food did not match the price we paid.

We just found this place by chance as it allowed dining in and we were very happy we did! The staff were very attentive and the food was lovely. Probably the best Mexican I’ve been to. We had the Tapas (3 dishes each) and there was plenty of food and so tasty. Pina cocktails were very nice too! The kids really enjoyed their ‘make your own wrap’ followed by 2 big scoops of ice cream. Would definitely visit again. Ver carta

As The Escape in Milton Keynes is a popular spot, I expected it to be bustling with activity. However, the restaurant was surprisingly quiet. When we ordered, the starters were reasonably priced and delicious. Unfortunately, the Enchiladas we ordered were bland and messy. I mentioned this to the staff, but all they could offer was a simple apology. I was disappointed with the lack of response and will not be returning. Overall, a very poor experience.

Food is amazing! We have tried 8 starters and 4 mains and everything was great, you can tell that they use fresh products. Only burritos were a bit dry (maybe they should add some kind of sauce in it) but still good. The waiting time is decent as well. Customer service was bad though, lady who took our order for drinks totally forgot about them and after 15 minutes waiting we had to ask another waiter for them. We did not receive knife and forks. Waiter did not even notice that and we had to ask for it twice. It was not busy at all as there were only two more tables filled other than ours so we were quite surprised with the quality of service. Also – they have promotions for drinks 2 for £10...

We went for lunch whilst out in the Xscape centre. We took our little one with us, we ordered the sweet corn fritters, jalapeño poppers and potato in spices. The starters were ok none of them were outstanding. The sweetcorn fritters tasted uncooked and like they had been warmed up. For the mains we had beef burrito and that came with chips and coleslaw. And the veggie chilli with rice and tortilla chips. My husband said the beef didn’t taste right and had to take it all out o eat the wrap, the veggie chilli was fine but it tasted like microwave rice it was stuck together and very stodgy. And the amount of rice to the chilli didn’t go barely had 2 spoonfuls of chilli on there to a while bowlf... Ver carta
