Tortilla, which sells California-style Mexican food, is opening its doors in White Lion Street tomorrow at the former Greggs site

General manager Kevin Burton said: "When people come through our doors they can expect to be greeted by our lovely staff at the counter. 

"They will first have to choose whether they would like a burrito, naked burrito or tacos and then they'll move along the deck and pick their protein and toppings."

Chicken, pork, beef, veggie chilli and grilled vegetables are on offer as fillings, with smashed guacamole, chipotle cheese sauce, caramelised chorizo or double protein being optional add-ons. 

A range of authentic soft drinks, beers, ciders and margaritas fill a fridge beside the counter and during happy hour alcoholic drinks are £2.50 when bought with a meal.

Mr Burton added: "We're different from other restaurants because it is all fresh - we have deliveries five or six days a week so you won't find any freezers out the back and you won't see any friers, either. 

"We've got loads of great art scattered around to create a really nice atmosphere too. 

"We are just so excited to be opening in Norwich - we're in a great spot here so we're hoping to attract people wandering around the market during the day and heading to the cinema in the evenings." 

Tortilla will also be available on Deliveroo, Just Eat and Uber Eats.
