Topolabamba (Glasgow) 2023 : Review

Visit & Vibes

It was time again to head back here, as it’s been too long and I needed my Mexican fix.


I half knew that I wanted a Burrito but what else? now that was the big question.

The Food

So the hard question I was having tonight do I have more than a Burrito or be good…..I wasn’t good as you would expect

Chicken Tinga Burrito £7.70
Flour tortilla stuffed with green rice, black beans, pico de gallo, queso fresco cheese & your choice of filling. Available as a naked burrito. (not GF)

Let’s start with the red tones going through my photos, unfortunately, due to the lighting in here most photos are like that sorry….now on to the food.

I remember from my last few visits “Chicken Tinga” I really liked, so that’s why I opted for my Burrito flavour.

I took a big bite and I knew I opted for the right choice! this was lovely and packed with flavour and every bite was packed with great flavour.

I tried it with the dip, and that was nice but to be honest the flavours on their own were good enough.

Even though this was packed! I was full after it but not feeling bloated.

Highly recommended if you like burritos.

Salt & Chilli Pepper Fries £2.95

Along with my burrito, I opted to order some fries to go with it.

On arrival, this was a good size for a wee nibble /side to whatever you are to order.

The fries were perfectly cooked but I didn’t really get much chilli from them, it was more salty but they were still very good fries.

Mexican Chocolate Cup (V) £5.50

Again apologies for the redness in my pics, but again it was where I was seated.

I wondered what this was, and decided to order it.

On arrival, this looked very nice and I took a big spoonful, this looked so good on my spoon I couldn’t wait to taste it.

This was a lovely thick mousse, and the cream just helped it with a little more flavour.

I loved this and could easily had another one.

I did check back on my previous reviews, and I have had this but was a long time ago so I am glad I refound a favorite!

Highly recommended if you have a sweet tooth like me.
