Excellent little restaurant serving up the finest delights of Mexican dining. I had the beef burrito which was fantastic, nicely seasoned and spiced, with hint of hotness. Churros for dessert, with some excellent little dipping pots. Service was good and very friendly. Would highly recommend.

We have been back to Pieno Lleno so many times now as it is the best Mexican restaurant around! The food is cooked fresh every time so you can request changes to the ingredients and tastes out of this world. The service is outstanding too, the staff are very friendly and nothing is too much trouble.

Had our Christmas Party here for 14 people. The Staff worked very hard looking after everyone. They were quick bringing the food out from the starter to the desert. Nothing was too much trouble for them. The atmosphere was good but could probably been better with some party music to get in the party mood. Overall a really good night.
