Here at Provecho Aberystwyth we pride ourselves on creating authentically Mexican dishes, combining the traditional Spanish influences and bold flavours.
We are passionate about representing the true authentic flavours of Mexico that have a rich history, cementing itself as one of the most popular cuisines around the world. It’s about time that Aberystwyth had a slice of the cake (or more appropriately, the taco), and so we present to you Provecho, Aberystwyth’s first authentic Mexican restaurant.
In Mexico, cooking is more than just creating a dish, it’s a story of flavours and culture which bring the whole community together. It’s a celebration of history and tradition, which we have took a twist on and made our own. Let our dishes take you on a journey of exciting new flavours and spices where you are guaranteed to enjoy your meal.
Provecho began years ago when our founders had the realisation that Aberystwyth, as great as it is, was missing a key ingredient. Why was there no where you could access genuine, delicious Mexican food? The cuisine is rated one of the best in the world, yet the poor residents of Aberystwyth were missing out. Enter Provecho, a taste of Mexico in the heart of Wales!
The name of our restaurant, Provecho, is significant to us as it is a Mexican phrase meaning ‘enjoy your meal’. Our founders have taken time researching what truly makes a dish Mexican, representing the flavours that can be found in Mexico itself. Our chef has worked hard trialing and testing dishes that we are proud to offer to you. This, along with the best locally sourced quality ingredients, are guarantees that you will enjoy your meal!
Chillis are a vital ingredient in any Mexican dish as they add both the heat and flavour Mexican food is so well known for. At Provecho Aberystwyth, we have ensured that our recipes pack a punch! Don't worry, if spice is not for you we have milder options where even though the spice has been compromised, the same great taste has not!
In Mexican cooking, tomatoes act as a base to sauces thanks to their rich flavour. The freshest tomatoes have been used to create our Provecho salsas and sauces so that they taste like they've come straight out of Mexico. If you don't believe us, come try for yourself!
Mexicans consider corn as a gift from the gods as it is such a versatile ingredient. No Mexican dish would be complete without it! Provecho Aberystwyth use the best corn based tortillas, along with the highest quality fillings, to be as close to traditional Mexican dishes as possible. Consider this our gift to you.
Known for their creamy texture, avocados are the base ingredient for Provecho Aberystwyth's famous guacamole. Not only do they taste delicious, but the nutritional benefits to avocados are endless. Maybe our naughty nachos aren't so naughty after all.
