    Fantastic food, the tacos are the best I've had around Asia and I am about an hour from Mexico where my home is in America, very nice staff and drinks and specials are fantastic! Highly recommend..

    Go here if you are staying in Kota Kinabalu. I discovered it on my second to last night and went back it was that good! Pizzas, sandwiches and appetizers. Friendly staff

    Not "traditional" Mexican, but the tacos are tasty, as are the lime margaritas. Plenty for vegetarians

    Their grilled steak tacos and lime Margarita were pretty good. I also ordered their El Centro burger but it wasn't as juicy as I expected.

    Make eye contact when you order, and with a knowing look say "the Loooong Island Ice Tea, please". They'll know what you're talking about.

    The drinks and food are alright, but crowded only by western tourists and expats.
