Nice place, looks awesome. Staff cared much. As we ordered, they advised us that it could be too much of a portion for the both of us. They were right. Good we listened to their recommendation and ordered one taco less. Pretty good margaritas. The Tacos were also good but too much of a salad and no twist about it. Food is good and the place ist definitely worth a visit. Thumbs up Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person $40–50 Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Clearly a fan favourite for locals and visitors alike, we arrived at 7 on a Sunday and there was already a sizeable wait list. In other words, book if you can! We only had to wait an hour for a table (we went and had a drink nearby) and the staff were great about getting us seated. Food was good but not outstanding Mexican, with generous servings. Jalapeño poppers were delicious. Fajitas came with shredded chicken instead of the usual grilled but also came with a wide array of toppings so everyone was happy. Chorizo tacos were HUGE, order accordingly. Wash it all down with a jug of slightly-too-sweet margaritas and it’s happy days.

Interesting dining experience. Our first crack at authentic Mexican food. We told our waitress that we don’t prefer spicy food, they were patient in expressing which sauces will be spicier so that we can avoid them.

I hardly ever give 5 star reviews but this place is so good. Absolutely loved eating here. Definitely one of the best mexican food in the area. I have always loved mexican food and it did not dissappoint. Personally asked to get my food with no cream but guacamole, which made it even better in my opinion. The cocktails are also very nice and fruity and very tasty. The owner himself is also mexican I believe, and that's why this restaurant really has a nice mexican vibe to it, unlike many mexican restaurants. The staff is really nice and sweet and very helpful! Will be coming back here whenever I can. The only thing that's good to know is that it gets really really busy here, so when you want to go here, make sure to get a reservation, cause as soon as the place opens there are a lot of people already waiting. So get yourself a reservation and there will be no problem! Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $30–40 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes Chicken Quesadilla

Grabbed some takeaway from here, a serve of beef tacos. It was delicious and very generous serve. I’m not surprised that they were so busy on the evening. The decor looked fantastic. Highly recommend eating here or grabbing yourself a takeaway. Service Take out Meal type Dinner Price per person $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes Beef Tacos

Firstly, if you want to eat here, I would recommend that you make a booking, as it does get busy. There’s a good selection and the staff are very good at helping you to choose, with explaining what the different dishes are. Prices are very reasonable and the portion sizes are big, so you may want to decide to share a dish. Most importantly, though, the food tasted fabulous and I would thoroughly recommend visiting here!

Really enjoyed our meal here. The beef enchilada was incredible. The mole chicken was OK but wouldn't order again. The margarita was also well balanced and delicious Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Extremely delicious. But maybe consider lifting the charge on extra tortillas. The fajitas require more than 5 - since it’s a 2 person dish. Everything else was excellent! Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $20–30 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Was recommended to this place. We ordered the beef empanadas and the pulled pork fajitas. The beef empanadas was quite good, the pastry was crispy and the beef inside was nicely flavour and pairs well with the creamy spicy sauce. The salad salsa that was included was actually really unique, a bit sweet and sour that complements the empanada well. The fajita was not bad, a lot of sauce to choose from and I particularly like the red and green salsa sauce. There was only 5 wraps which I felt not enough, given amount of stuffs to put in. However as a whole I felt only the sauce was good and everything felt a bit simple. Overall, the meals here are above average and we want to try the churros next time.

We had tacos and nachos and both were amazing and very generous serves. Margarita's were some of the best we have ever had and very reasonably priced. Staff also went above and beyond to keep our baby entertained and were friendly and attentive. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
