A pleasant night with my partner and friends. Yummy food and drinks, not a fine dining definitely. It’s a cantina... however need a bit more attention to details especially cleaning attention.

We were the only ones in the restaurant so it was great, however, I think there was only one person in the kitchen because it was lunch time, so the food was a little slow and we were a massive group. I absolutely love this place though, will definitely come back in smaller groups.

Beautiful food that took us back to our trip to Mexico many years ago. Service friendly and efficient and fun atmosphere. Only suggestion is that smaller portion options be added to the menu to accomodate children and people who can’t handle the very generous portions offered. We ate what we could but there was quite a bit of waste.

Value for money was excellent and the food was great, however we went with a larger group and it was very hard to hear the talk around the table as the general noise level was high. They also had one of the waiters singing (he was very good with a lovely voice) but the downside was that it was not just 1 or 2 songs but 3 or 4 and no-one could talk while he was singing, as that would be rude. Because of this, we had to wait until he finished to give our food & drink order, which was about 1/2 hr to 45 mins after arriving. Overall it is a great place, with great food, value for money and all the wait staff were lovely.....and Mexican! which is what you want in a Mexican restaurant.

I love Mexican food. The cheese nacho dip was excellent. The service could be improved. They never bothered to clear any plates. Hard to eat with no room on the table. People had time to do it, they looked at the table and still just chose to ignore that need. Enjoyed the entertainment.

I went there for my birthday with eight friends. After ordering our food they double checked if they got everything right and they had made four mistakes. And still, they handed a plate with dairy products to my vegan friend and charged us for an extra plate of nachos. I liked the restaurant and they were nice to us, but overall the service that night was terrible. To end on a positive note though, I did get a free shot of tequila because it was my birthday.

Staff were very friendly and service was efficient; too efficient - mains came out soon after the entree and we had to send them back. Atmosphere was great with live entertainment.

Good food, great people. Service a little slow otherwise really enjoyable. They do good Micheladas too but I didn't see them on the menu. Just ask, but don't be afraid to ask for ice if you need it! Good authentic Mexican.

Food was okay at best - definitely not worth the price. If you live close then it is worth the heading there otherwise give this one a miss

Food was good, but they left our plates dirty for the rest of our meal and that is plates on a table of four, once we ordered our mains and they brought them into the table it was as if we have disappeared, no more waitress asking if we needed anything else nor picking up our empty used plates (30 min), We reconsidered to NOT have dessert at the place due to this. Hope they improve their service.

Food was delicious, as were the sangria and the margaritas. They were very busy so the service was a little slow, but still very friendly. I recommend the Mole on the weekend menu. We'll be back!

Very salty, overuse of low grade processed cheese, overpriced for low quality. Nice people but disappointing experience. Much better quality and value Lebanese and Indian nearby

The food was delicious (my partner, originally from the US, said they hadn't had Mexican as good as this in the 20+ years they've been in Australia) and the service fast and friendly.

Food quality was quite poor. Tasteless. Not worth for the money spent. Ambience was bad. We could feel a bad smell at the place. Not a advisable place.

Excellent, friendly service, the food servings were large and delicious and catering for the vegan in our group was not a problem. In fact vegan cheese and sour cream was an option which is most unusual and appreciated. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal. It's nearly unheard of in our family of five that everyone walks out of a restaurant happy as we have such varied tastes. We walked out of here full and satisfied. Would definitely recommend and go back.
