More about the restaurant: Mesa Verde
Mesa Verde Melbourne CBD celebrate all that is fantastic about Mexican cuisine and culture. Located on the sixth floor – lift access available all night, just check in with the friendly security on the door – of Melbourne’s Curtin House on Swanston Street, Mesa Verde takes its name from a fictional town in the 1971 Sergio Leone movie ‘Duck, You Sucker’. This restaurant and bar has a bit of an obsession with agave and, as a result, you can expect to find endless tequila and mezcal options available. Plus, on the weekend things get even spicier with live dj sets into the wee hours. Open seven days a week, you are never too far from your next taco fix so prepare to indulge!
