One of those places I've always meant to go but have never got round to it. Apparently it's good but a bit 'Tex Mex'; I imagine authentic Mexican cookin is a bit hard to track down in Bradford...

I think it's very good. I've not been for a year but I've never had a bad experience in there. The enchiladas are excellent.

I've been in with two Americans now at different times and both rated it, though it wasn't as hot as either were used to.

| A further endorsement for Omars here, very good Chicken Masala for me as per usual, and as her first experience of curry, my German friend enjoyed her Vegetable Korma, though it did embarass me to order it!

| Took my folks a few times to Cocina when I first moved here in the early 90's. It was excellent then but seemed to go down hill for me. Haven't been in for years.
It will always go down in family history though. I ordered nachos with dips, the big one where you all dig in. The old man, being a meatn2veg type, was a bit confused, he proceeded to eat the nachos with his knife & fork, dipping them in the dips in a 2 handed chopstick stylee. He then grabbed the whole jalapeno pepper from the middle of the serving plate & ate the lot. He'd never seen one before. Laugh, I nearly paid the bill.

| Omar's is recommended by Asian guys at work, they either go the Curry mile in town [ Rusholme or will travel over the hills to Bratfut and always go to Omar's....they tell me to order your food Apna style if you like it hot!! I did, and boy is it hot...great food though.

Apna style eh?
Off to Omars tomorrow. I'll try and remember that. Can someone warn Yorkshire water to get some extra staff in for Monday morning?

| I really don't see the attraction in ridiculously hot curries, I suppose the restaurants don't mind as it's easy money from (usually) those worse for wear.
Personally I like to be able to taste something, rather than have a burning mouth.
