Rosie was my waitress and if I go back will definitely request her, she’s so efficient and bubbly she just made our day. Even when it was very busy she kept her cool and managed to ask if we were okay and seemed so calm. Please let her know that we appreciated it and she’s an amazing waitress.

Enjoyed the food although my jambalaya only had 1 prawn in, which was a little disappointing. Cocktails great and 2 for one. My daughter's burger (gaucho) was delicious and the fries are perfect.

The quality of the drinks and food has been going down a lot. It is “Happy hour the whole day,” but the amount of ice they add to every drink is huge. The food is not bad, but it was much better before. The service is good when the place is almost empty. Getting someone's attention to ask for your bill can be an impossible mission. It is a great location, and the music is nice.

Las Iguanas in Cambridge is a great spot for a casual break after exploring the city. We stopped by for a quick refreshment, and the atmosphere was just what we needed after a long walk. The restaurant has a vibrant, relaxed ambiance with a colorful and welcoming interior that adds to the overall Latin American theme. Although we only had shandy, the service was prompt and friendly, making us feel right at home. The drinks were refreshing, perfectly mixed, and served quickly. The menu is quite extensive, offering a range of Latin American-inspired dishes that looked tempting, and I’d definitely consider coming back to try them next time. The location is also ideal, especially if you're touring around Cambridge. It's conveniently situated near several city attractions, so it’s an easy stop for a break or a full meal. The atmosphere inside was lively but not overwhelming, making it a great place to relax and recharge. Overall, Las Iguanas in Cambridge is worth a visit, whether you're looking for a drink, a meal, or just a cozy place to rest. The service was efficient, the environment pleasant, and based on our brief visit, it seems like a fun spot to enjoy more of their menu. We'll likely return to explore what else they have to offer!

Super tasty food, and friendly service from all staff. Unfortunately the cleanliness and wait time has stopped this from being a 4 star rating. The bathrooms were absolutely horrendous. Had to walk up multiple flights of stairs, not ideal for older family members. Waited 25 minutes for our drinks, and then over 45 for our mains.

Visited here for cocktails! Sat outside with a good view of the river and for people watching. Our group went for the buy one, get another same one for free. I can highly recommend the 'Day of the Dead' that I opted for. Very tasty and the different cocktails that my friends went for were all good too (but mine looked the best!)

Very well located restaurant with a lovely large terrace looking towards river Cam, we enjoyed our stay there. Food was delicious and everything we ordered was good. It is moderately priced. Place is clean, restaurant is very large. They have amazing food varieties. You order at the bar or via the app. View it’s nice I recommend this place.

The service was alright. The food was very average, nothing remarkable. However, the cocktails were good. The ambience is really nice with a view of the river if you are seated next to it. The wait to get the seat was quite tiring even though they were quite empty, took about 20 minutes to get seated, and we were the only ones in the queue

I visited this place yesterday to meet up with a friend and celebrate Christmas, and we had such a great time! The 2-for-1 cocktails were delicious, and the nachos we shared were the perfect snack. One of the highlights was taking a fun picture in their Photo Booth it added such a nice touch to our evening. The atmosphere of the bar was fantastic, and we both agreed we d definitely come back again!

Well, the place is cool and you can see the river. They have a robot waitress playing shakira, which was very cool! But, the service was very slow. Food and drinks are overpriced. Chicken fajitas were good. Pink lemonade was awful (like water with sugar and a hint of strawberry). We spent around £30 pounds each WITH student discount applied. I cant imagine the amount without the discount.

I cannot comment on the food but the care given to my wife when she came in to the restaurant feeling poorly on Friday 15th November was exemplary. The gentleman member of staff was very kind and treated her so well. Unfortunately, she didnt get his name but I hope this review gets to him. Thank you so much for looking after her.

Absolutely awful - Tip - If you visit Cambridge do not go here! We had a great day in Cambridge. Did Punting down the River Camb, found a lovely Pub and had a nice meal at Prezzos. We were robbed of £27 for 2 Mojitos in this establishment. The guy did not even know how to make a Mojito. Served in flimsy plastic cups. We compained and we were promtly barred - Thank you. I never intend to revisit anyway. 5 Star Prices - Zero Star Service

I LOVE Las Iguanas. Every time I ve been here (3 now, and to be many more) the exemplary service is paired with delectable dishes. The atmosphere is bubbly and informal, great for a laugh or a catch up, and really picks up in the evenings when the cocktails are in flow. Portion sizes are great, and nothing is spared on the flavourful dishes. Highlight of all? The service. Each and every staff member are brilliant, smiley, helpful, and always there to make your experience. I will be coming back, again and again!! Thanks again Franco, brilliant service and a great charisma.

Empty at lunch time, service pretty poor, just slow, staff not really sure what theyre doing, toilets were terrible, no lock on my cubicle, didnt look like theyd been cleaned since last night as the bin was full at 12.30 and they had only been open a short while. Had no lemonade apparently, yet serve all manner of spirits, so who knows what youll have if you dont like coke.

This is a really nice spot, and was fairly quiet. Arrived around 8pm on a Saturday. Food was delicious. We ordered the Taco Sharing board x2 to share between 6 of us as a finger type food. The beef was fabulous , probably should have ordered 3. Of course you cannot go to Las Iguanas without cocktails or cocktails, and they did not disappoint. We had a fabulous time. The waiter was lovely, funny. Overall, it was a pleasant experience and would definitely recommend whether it be a date night or a night out with the girls. There is an outside bit where smokers can smoke, with tables aswell.

Pros: - nice atmosphere - good location - got seated with 11 people in the bar area (not the restaurant) on a Saturday without booking Cons: - slow service behind bar - there were a lot of staff around the bar/kitchen area but only 1 serving the bar area so it took ages to order - the bar staff didnt know what a mocha was and said they didnt do them. I later realised they did but had to wait again for another staff member to serve me (again, despite lots of staff being behind the bar area). It took ages to make and there was no apology. - one of the nachos that we ordered didnt arrive. I spoke to the barman and he just told me all the food had come out. When I explained again that it had not, he just looked at me blankly and said hmm its confusing. After then speaking to the manager, he checked and did go over to the kitchen and told me they were on the way. They did finally arrive after the rest of the table had eaten but no apology! Not impressed with the service at all. Overall very frustrating and I spent half the time at the bar trying to sort out drink then food!

On a busy Saturday, we pre booked our table. The food and drinks arrived within minutes. We were told there were 2 staff members who called in sick or didn t turn up. And a few had left the restaurant last week. The young staff serving us and the neighbouring section looked overworked but were incredible, stoic and held the fort. We wanted to give them a hug !! The food is exquisite, nightclub-like atmosphere and the location is excellent.

We went for my friends 21st birthday, we had a brunch. The food was amazing although small portions, i had a jackfruit curry only 2 small pieces of jackfruit. The service was not great, every time you got the waiters attention they would ignore you, so hard to get your moneys worth if you get the brunch. The place was empty but only one guy behind the whole bar. Would not recommend id rather go to turtle bay to get my moneys worth for a bottomless brunch.

Ordered a loaded chicken with bacon and special sauce for £17.00 with straight fries and rice.when it arrived I noticed the chicken breast was half a chicken breast so they had a breast and cut it down the middle and gave me half of it put the bacon on top and loaded it with sauce.felt like a starter.never again oh and 14 quid for a pint of cider and two cokes.as I said never again.

Went for bottomless brunch 03/08/24 party of 4. Service was terribly slow, usually bottomless brunch service is super quick with drink refills but we got 3 drinks in the space of an hour an a half. They attempted to make up for this with 4 jugs of cocktails which were based on our previous order of cocktails of which we cancelled as 2 of those tasted like paint stripper. Food is OK, don t expect to be full as they are not carb heavy (unless you order £2-4 sides ie. Chips. (Burger does not come with chips for example) Waited 45 minutes for prosecco glasses after being served a bottle, told they d be with us in 10 mins due to a shortage in glasses (understanable). But then being offered half pint glasses which were disgustingly dirty - see photo. Just constantly had to chase for drinks overall a frustrating experience.

Went there on a Saturday and was quite disappointed with the classic margarita they served me. Firstly, they served it in the wrong glass, secondly they forgot to add any ice, thirdly they didnt add any salt to the glass, and finally most important of all they put half measures in two separate glasses. The offer was two for one, but I well know that I only got one cocktail. When I asked the staff they said they ran out of the cocktail glasses, ran out of salt and forgot the ice. Most pathetic.

The menu has now changed and not much variety, plus the portions are small for the price. Las Iguanas has severely gone downhill and actually was one of my favourite restaurants but now its poor and worst is that the service charge is optional but it actually mandatory as they immediately charge you compulsory service charge. I believe the restaurant does not understand the meaning of optional

Our waitress for the night was absolutely amazing. It was her only 2nd or 3rd day but we just didn t feel like it at all. Very professional and friendly. Also, present manager at the time was very helpful as well. Amazing team!

The food was really nice and I always love the presentation of Iguanas! The service was good, very fast to order and receive the food. Drinks were amazing as well. My only complaint is about the music inside that it was too loud so we couldn t talk. Not a problem if it is sunset and party time, but it was at 1pm. Kid-friendliness: They made sure to accommodate our baby and had changing room.

Nice interior and background big selection of drinks but this is somewhere I would not recommend The toilets are extremely dirty and out of the 4 cubicles they were 3 cubicles that were either to deity for use or the doors were broken. Also the glasses and plates are dirty. An example of this is in the photos attached.

Got automatically charged a 10% optional service fee that was listed as part of the total. Not sure if it was added because I am American. Overall okay place. Was out of the first two mains we asked for. The 2-for-one on all cocktails is nice if you re with someone who wants the same drink. Mixed drink price is about 50% higher than other places but you get 2 nice cocktails, so it may be a good value for you.

About what youd expect of Mexican food in the UK, although it was still decent enough. Cocktails were yummy too. The location is definitely the best part, I loved sitting at the table by the water! I can only imagine how wonderful it is to sit there on a nice day. That alone made me almost want to go back!

AVOID!! Bathrooms are disgraceful, not well looked after at all!!. Waited a very long time for our food to arrive and it was a total disappointment, it tasted like primary school food and nothing tasted fresh, like microwaved food, definitely not worth your money, so avoid.

If youre looking for a place with great Latin music, delicious drinks and beautiful views next to the river in Cambridge this place is the perfect spot. Their cocktail selection, including mojitos, margaritas and martinis, is impressive and perfectly prepared. We visited on a Saturday during a Latin event with a Latinoamerican DJ playing amazing Latin music; bachata, merengue, salsa, and reggaeton, that kept us dancing all night long. The atmosphere was very welcoming, making it ideal for an unforgettable night. Definitely worth a visit!

£35 for bottomless brunch and there was no alcohol in the cocktails. I had 4 cocktails and they were all the same (so not a mistake). What an absolute rip off. Not been for ages because they did this last time. Would have complained but it was a friends birthday and didnt want to ruin it. The 6 of us who were drinking them said exactly the same. Never going back. Shame because our waiter was really good and friendly.

This isnt like the Las Iguanas I know and love. Previous franchises Ive been too in other cities are of a much nicer quality. The Cambridge one was so loud, you had no chance to hear each other while chatting. The decor is also very outdated and is quite dark and dingy. Even though we ordered from the app it took 20 minutes for our 4 drinks to arrive at the table. My friends ordered the Mojito and they said it had so much ice they couldnt taste any alcohol in it. When my cocktail arrived they apologised as they ran out of the proper glasses so the cocktail was in a small glass, no ice - the taste also wasnt great - for £13 a drink its an easy pass for this place. Im sure there are much better places to get a drink in town!

Never visiting again. Was there celebrating my birthday with a friend and we were not happy at all! I ordered the Loaded chicken and the chicken was really tough and chewy, the Mexican rice was flavourless and cold as ice. We also ordered the caruran curry and it was below average- my friend couldn t even finish her meal We had 2 cocktails as well both of which barely tasted like they had any alcohol! It took ages to get a cheque because there was such few staff.. We only visited to try something different and looking at the reviews, the place seemed great but for a birthday meal like that and worth £53, we were extremely disappointed!

June 21, 2024

Food was very average, chicken dry and tastes. We got cocktails and such a disappointment again, paid 13.80 for a juice with no alcohol taste. Service was okay tho
