Join us for a dinner of sharing plates and bold flavours at XOKO Cantina—a relaxed, vibrant dining experience right in the heart of Inverness.

The Menu: A Taste of Real Mexico (and Beyond)

Our dinner menu is a celebration of authentic Mexican street food and homestyle cooking, brought to life by Fernando. The kitchen serves up the true, unpretentious taste of Mexico, built on heritage recipes passed down from his mother and regional favourites shared by friends back home.

Alongside these traditional dishes, you will spot a few exciting international twists—including some vibrant Korean fusion elements—that keep the sharing plates fresh, bold, and dynamic.

Keep It Casual

Forget the stiff reservations, formal dining rules, and waiting lists. We believe the best meals are spontaneous, which is why the Cantina operates a no-booking-required basis.

Whether you are dropping in for a quick bite after work or settling in for an evening of sharing plates with friends, just turn up, find a table, and soak in the bustling, friendly atmosphere.
