With the introduction of jackfruit carnitas and vegan cheese, over half of Illegal Jacks food is now vegan-friendly.

Grilled tortilla filled with (vegan) cheese,  served with salsa and sour cream usually – but you can swap out the sour cream for guacamole.

Three crispy shells served with rice, beans, (vegan) cheese, lettuce and salsa, Ask to hold the sour cream.

Large tray of tortilla chips, fresh from the oven, topped with melted (vegan) cheese, salsa and jalapeños.

Filled with delicious beans, salsa, rice, vegan cheese and veggie haggis, this gorgeous creation is bound to leave you crying with happiness!

A Fast Food Review: Illegal Jack's | Edinburgh Foody

Review analysis

Passing St Patrick Square on my way home, I thought I’d duck in and grab a couple of burritos from Illegal Jack’s.

“Yummy yummy in your tummy pre-gig Tex-Mex @ Illegal Jack’s #happy,” reads one.

The ‘original’ burritos (as opposed to the alternative, ‘small’) were HUGE – a seriously weighty wrap that took two hands to hold.

Obviously, I wanted all of the above but I did feel that once you had all the fillings, the flavour of the meat or other main ingredient got a bit lost.

However, overall the flavours were very well balanced and the descriptions of spiciness were accurate; my mild was just enough to assert itself.

With that in mind, we wanted to tell you about the best craft beer restaurants in Edinburgh.

This certainly is one of the best craft beer restaurants in Edinburgh – even if it is the newest.

The Holyrood 9A was a craft beer restaurant in Edinburgh before it was cool.

It is one of the best craft beer restaurants in Edinburgh too!

Now relocated to St Patrick’s Square, Illegal Jack’s promises the best Tex-Mex in Edinburgh washed down with local craft beer.

Restaurant review: Bodega, Elm Row, Edinburgh - The Scotsman

Review analysis
location   food   drinks  

Dinner for two, excluding 14/20 Years ago, I stayed in San Francisco’s Mission district, which has a large Mexican community.

In recent years, a couple of sprightly Mexican take-away/sit-in places have sprung up – Los Cardos and Illegal Jack’s in Edinburgh, and Glasgow’s Pinto Mexican Kitchen.

We also had big love for the sopa de tortilla (a steal at £4) – a rich and stocky broth laden with shredded chicken, tiny tomato cubes, celery and onion, with a thatch of toasted tortilla matchsticks.

A body-temperature black bean dip (£3.50) was earthy, with more dusty tortilla chips on the side and thin shavings of manchego on top.

Despite the wonders of tacos 1, 2 and 3, we did get slightly tired of the ubiquitous jicama coleslaw and oniony pico de gallo (my breath should have been cordoned off with yellow tape) – a combination added to every option.
