"You guys are amazing. I’ve eaten a lot of Mochachos in my life, but the meal I had in your establishment was the best one I’ve had yet! It started off with a polite and profesional call in to place the order, and was followed up by the same happy and profesional staff. Topped off by the best Mochachos meal I’ve ever had Welldone guys! Keep it up"

"Took my family to this branch on Saturday and the they are not using original Mochachos spice in the burgers. It was honestly not nice. And everyone who ate the burger said the same thing, spice was just tasting weird."

"What can I say about this little gem tucked away at Eldo Square, other than their food is quite spectacular, with service to match. I can highly recommend the chicken quesadilla. I have eaten here multiple times and each time the experience is better than the last. Quality food, friendly service and a great overall experience. Thank you Mochachos, keep being great."

"Update: 01/12/2024 I've eaten at this Mochachos maybe dozen times after my below review, and I am definitely impressed at the improvements in both service and quality of the food. 2 stars bumped to 4 ... I hope I didn't shoot myself in the foot and everything below starts up again ‐—--------------------------------------- Food can be very inconsistent. They tend to wrap everything tight and this causes the food to get soggy, especially the chips. They overspiced the chips and sogginess calls for a total disaster. I dont know why the owners and management won't teach staff about this and only pack the when we go and collect. Edit: Had a sit in meal with my daughter 24/09 and my burger was really good but my daughter who ordered a quarter chicken leg didn't fancy it too much as it was too salty. I really don't think this did Mochachos any favours now as she will always prefer Nandos due to this. The sit in was practically empty so I had good service from staff. The decor and seating areas were nice but very dirty. They need to clean the tables properly!"

"The food was absolutely delicious and the service was great. The store closes at 20:30 and not 21:00 as advertised on Google. The staff were friendly."
