It really looks like a cantina, all we needed is a mariachi band. Great atmosphere, delicious food with warm and friendly service from the serving staff.The toilet needs a slight upgrade.Aside from that, it was a very pleasant evening amongst friends.

Stunning food as always. Brilliant flavours, and presentation. The atmosphere is always warm and inviting too. It was my birthday, and they had a Tequila shot for me and a sombrero! My favourite restaurant in New Zealand by a Looooong way.

As authentic as it gets. On the day we visited our chef was one of their Mexican chefs. The food was fresh, flavoursome, and full of colour. The accompanying drinks were the perfect combination for each tasty morsel. The service was quick and knowledgeable. I could also relate to the vibe of its decor.

This is the gold standard for Mexican in Wellington, every time my partner and I have dined here it’s been an amazing 10/10 experience.From the great friendly and perfect customer service to the delicious delectable food, there’s nothing this place could do wrong.If you’re thinking of coming here, stop thinking and do it. You won’t regret it and you’ll continue to comeback.

Very instagrammable joint and live the vibes. Service was 5star excellent. We didn't even say anything about celebrating a birthday. The service staff just overheard our conversation and offered the birthday boy a treat! That was not even necessary and we appreciate that very much. So thoughtful. Needless to say, food was super awesome !!!

I really enjoyed the food, everything I ate was really good. I just wish they had tamales on the menu, and maybe some spicier options. I would also like the option of a non frozen margarita, just my preference. Best Mexican food I've had in Wellington.

Llevamos un par de semanas viajando por NZ y este restaurante fue un soplo de aire fresco para nosotros.El guacamole con un toque picante nos gustó mucho, y los tacos estaban bastante ricos.Lo que más nos gustó fue el ambiente y el trato de los camareros.Recomiendo 100% este mexicano para cenar rico y pasar un buen rato!
