Absolutely amazing place to go for a great meal. The staff were very polite & friendly & very efficient when it comes to service. The venue had a lovely inviting atmosphere about it. And the food, just perfect. Ordered the sizzling fajitas & guava soda to wash it down. If you want a great place that serves great food, this is the place to go.
There was quite a wait for the meals because of how busy the place is, but the food turned out amazing. Nice ambience, and the noise level is high but not too much so. The dessert was a highlight, with the food being of exceptional.
The taco is excellent and so is the entrees and mains. The environment is very chill. There is balcony area that can envoy the leisure street view. The location is great that you can walk to the restaurant within 5 minutes after you visit the beach. The staff is very friendly too as we arrived late and the friendly staff still enthusiastically accomodate us. Highly recommended!
This is an ok Mexican restaurant. Food lacks fire & spice for my taste. Loved the interior with all the wall art & quirky memorabilia. Generous serves, but too many packet corn chips added to the dishes. Polite service. Getting up the stairs may prove to be a problem for some
Having Mexican food in Australia i always a bit iffy for me. I come from Texas and have had authentic Mexican food. But I will say the food was very delicious and very inventive. I would definitely go back again. I also loved the atmosphere.

Authentic Mexican flavors with a vibrant Glenelg twist—where every bite feels like a fiesta!
