Wing Wednesday is just the best idea. Such good flavour, service was perfect. Friendly and inviting, really enjoyed our meal. Highly recommend.

Went there for Taco Thursday (all you can eat taco + drink deal). Ordered the vegetarian option. It was pretty simple in terms of flavor not bad. After 5 tacos I felt full so pretty decent deal! Also there was a variety of taco's that were given to us. The service was quick efficient, friendly staff, and quick food rounds!

It really is the best Mexican! They were very busy, yet I was served and seated straight away. I was given enough time to decide my meal and the drink came very fast. I had the fish tacos and they were the best I’ve had in the north island! Definitely worth checking out if you have cravings for Mexican and want to dine in a place that has great service and good vibes, not just excellent food.

Our favourite place to eat, and we often travel from the Wairarapa just for Tequila Joes!!! Highly recommend the buffalo wings, with the classic buffalo sauce, plus Chipotle beef for main. Awesome selection of drinks, great music, love the staff.

Drinks are amazing and if you come on Tuesday or Thursday for their all you can eat tacos, you will be blown away with the number of tacos they bring out and how tasty they are. Staff are also so friendly and welcoming!!

Was looking forward to having my birthday dinner here for months, specifically for the all you can eat wings on a Wednesday. Made a booking for ten people. The morning of, I get a call to say they are not doing all you can eat wings that day as they couldn’t get delivery of the wings. I understand supply issues, sometimes there is nothing you can do. However I asked if they could substitute all you can eat tacos instead (which they do on Tuesdays and Thursdays) or offer some sort of discount and they said no, they had nothing to offer to make up for the cancellation of the wings deal. Now I understand the wings not being available because sometimes these things happen, but as they say ‘it’s the putting right that counts’ and it was well within their power to offer me some alternative deal as an apology and they chose not to do so. I cancelled my booking and thankfully another restaurant took our party instead. Very disappointing customer service.

Went for all you can eat tacos. The tacos were tasty. Service was average, drinks took a while to come out and they stopped serving us tacos with our asking if everyone was finished wanting more tacos. The worse thing about this place is the place itself. It's small, poorly layed out and cramped with low quality worn furnishings. They should look for a better venue.

Booked in for a large group for my birthday dinner giving the restaurant 2 weeks notice. I got called on the day to organise a pre order from all the guests coming. We were happy to pre order but a bit more notice would have been appreciated as it felt rushed and made issues when receiving the orders.On arrival the table we were provided was extremely close to the wall meaning if anyone on that side wanted to get up they would have to crawl under the table. Not to mention there were not enough seats for the amount of people I had booked for. If this was going to be an issue I would have rather been told it wasn’t able to happen than have my friends standing while eating their dinner.The food was relatively quick to the table and what I had was tasty but not filling in the slightest (I ordered a main and appetiser).Two of the nachos that were ordered never came to the table and so those people never ate. However when paying the staff we’re arguing that they did in fact make the nachos and they had it on camera of them bringing it to the table. We asked to see the footage as we knew confidently they did not bring these meals but they said they wouldn’t pull the footage up.At the end when the last person paid they also said there was a drink unpaid which no one ordered. My friend said okay and was willing to pay their meal and the drink that wasn’t anyone’s and when they were charged they charged them for the remained of the bill (the 2 nachos that never arrived and the drink as well as their own meal)When leaving they told us we’re not welcome there anymore. I found this quite disheartening as these mistakes were not made by us. If there was confusion it could have been resolved easily but instead having my friends and family accused of lying and being yelled at but when asked for proof they couldn’t give us any.If I had known the experience would be like this I would have opted for a different restaurant as there are many in town that accommodate for large groups with ease.Very disappointed as this was a first for most of my group.We were told not to come back but to be very honest I wouldn’t go back and would discourage other people from dinging here in a group larger than 2.
