   Found this place near our air bnb. I was so surprised to see its very authentic! They even had agua de horchata which you don’t see much around in restaurants this far from Mexico. The amount of food that comes in a plate is very fair for the price and the flavours are a hit! And the service was more than excellent. Every single person there is welcoming, nice and friendly. I wish I lived here so I could come more often.

   The food was delicious! I got vegan tacos dorados, and the server was so nice and cheerful. She even checked that the honey in ny dressing was local, which is a very specific request, I know. And she was so kind about it. The salsa spiciness level was just right, not extremely spicy. The chef is Mexican, which is a total win! You can be sure you'll be getting 100% authentic Mexican cousin. The drink menu is very extended, and I'm looking forward to going back and trying more plates/drinks! The atmosphere is absolutely stunning and full of photos of Mexican figures, especially Frida Kahlo. I even got to know the story behind the doll decorations on the ceiling by chatting with the waitress! Being from latinoamerica, the atmosphere and layout of this place was like stepping back home for a moment. This restaurant is a true ode to Mexico. I would definitely recommend it, and I will take some friends to try it out, too!

   BEST Mexican food I have had in New Zealand. Portion sizes are amazing for the price and so flavourful. Service is great. The place can get a little crowded due to the floor layout but it's worth it for the food.

   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.

   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 !!!

   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.

   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.
