Mexi-kernow - Cornwall,Isles of Scilly

Had to put pen to paper once more, so to speak. this place never lets you down the flavours are exceptional and the quality of the food is superb! As we all do, we eat with our eyes initially. Opening a box from Mexi K is like opening up a jack in the box as a kid the colours. The smell....... and all for the cost of a fast food kebab! Matt and team never disappoint!

Proper tasty locally sourced food. The fries are crispy, the bbq pulled pork is tender, the dirty nachos are ...... just dirrrty! And the firecracker calamari.... just wow!! Great honest food, in very generous portions, sourced from local butchers and suppliers, created into masterpieces by Matt a lovely friendly guy. Couldn’t recommend this place enough. But beware.... it’s popular so don’t hang about!!

In the interests of full disclosure, I 've been meaning to write this review for ages but have only got around to doing it now because there is a 2* grumpy review further down the page, and I want to give a locals view of the place.What can I tell you about Mexi-Kernow? The food is exceptional, freshly cooked and locally sourced, the portion sizes are MASSIVE (so much so that we sometimes ask for smaller! , the prices are very reasonable, the open kitchen is spotless, and the service is always great.We eat from here all the time, and if we ask the kids 'what do you want for dinner? ' their reply is almost always Mexi-Kernow. I honestly can 't rate the place highly enough. Yes, it sometimes gets busy (it 's very popular , and if you turn up you sometimes have to wait, but they do take phone orders.If I had one complaint it 'd be that they 're not open 24/7!! (Yeah, I know, you have to sleep and things, but pleeeeeeeaaaaaaase! Don 't forget to check out their Facebook page for the daily specials too!

My favourite local food establishment, I treated my sister to this delight who was down from Bristol Town and she swears its better than what she can get in her locals

Issue with cold food,thin cardboard box use! Don't expect hot food for more than 5 min! So if you travel say anywhere outside the small town! Taco in a tortilla? Strange to say the least? A floury mess in bottom of boxes? Not enough chilli on Taco in a tortilla for the cost! Other Taco in a tortilla that they do tiny amount of fish or calamari etc,for 7.50 not Worth it. The filthy fries,the fries were not crispy at all and it resembles chip shop chips in a big mushy mess. Sorry nothing much authentic about the mex!
