- Nikhita KhanduriJune 30, 2016Mexico fried chicken should ideally make KFC illegal! Eat the special tacos, esp. the pork and chicken ones and do experiment with the weekly specials! And all the margaritas and tequilas. ;)
Daile StephensApril 5, 2013Authentic delicious Mexican tapas-esk in the heart of Britomart. Most dishes suitable to share. Awesome decor & atmosphere. Enjoy a drink at their bar next door while you wait for a table (it's busy!)
Road UnraveledNovember 24, 2018Authentic Mexican food in New Zealand! Try the margaritas and chimichangas. The fried chicken and ceviche were also very good.
JemimahApril 14, 2015Nice cozy place to visit when you want a light meal. Potato quesadilla was quite good. If churro so are on the menu, do try!
Coming from someone who is obsessed with good Mexican, this place has got it goin' on. Only place with a leg to stand on in all of NZ! Gotta get something with caramelized pepitas, TO-DIE-FOR!- New menus out and it's so tasty! Beef brisket taco braised in coconut & ancho with green onion, chilli and papaya... Yum!
- Cristina CostacheJune 7, 2014Amazing food! Loved the roasted eggplant taco, lamb quesadilla and of course the popular fried chicken!
Lovely decor and ambience! The sauteed mushroom soft shell tacos are mouth watering and full of flavour!!
Tm BoAugust 28, 2014The best Mexican restaurant I have ever been too. Perfect bite size portions. Try everything!
JoannaOctober 5, 2014Great decor, atmosphere and menu. Lots of gluten free options! Try the mushroom taco!
Petr HruškaNovember 11, 2017I think you can't go wrong with everything from their menu. It's just delicious.
Lance JonesApril 27, 2014Anything with prawns is bomb. The very, very hit sauce will burn your face off!- Always go for the specials, the chefs are fantastic. And ask for more hot sauce, they only put two out but they have a huge selection!
Odin Hørthe OmdalJanuary 4, 2015Real mexican, not tex mex (though I like that too). Very sweet servers though she was extraordinarily forgetful. That might irritate on the wrong day.
Awesome awesome food! Make sure you have the ceviche, patatas de maiz, and the nooooom fried chicken
View New ZealandJune 11, 2012After too many years of bland pretenders, Auckland finally has a terrific Mexican restaurant, with Mexico nailing the ambience and flavours of the nation’s exciting street food. Read more
Ben PountneyMarch 31, 2012Food is good and sounds cheap but the portions are super tiny, so you'll want to order 3 or more dishes per person
Sangria is so good! Actually, everything here is good. Highly recommended.
Max Blue 🚴🍔March 10, 2015Gezzz, are they kidding? Quesadillas are a joke. They are super thin with nearly no cheese and meat in them. This place is everything but not one bit real mexican.
Mohamed Al SadoonNovember 12, 2012The food is good but the proportions are very small and you'll quickly rack up quite a bill ordering extras- Watermelon margarita and the spicy chicken for the win!
- J TJune 24, 2014Small portion, expensive price, so so food, half hearted service. Mad Mex or Mexican Café would be much better value for money.
