Mexican restaurant in Auckland

“Fresh homely cooked door, big portions for little cost,”

“Went here for brunch, was great, food and coffee was nice, service was fast and staff friendly, plenty of outside tables so could sit and enjoy food without having to leave the dog in the car”

“Food is REALLY Good! Pork belly and lamb were amazing and onion rings are a great appetizer. Craft beers on tap GREAT selection of craft beers too. Will definitely come back...OFTEN”

“The staff at Cilantro are very friendly, and the food was superb. The Chicken Biryani and Butter Chicken was flavorful with perfect spice balance, and the portions were generous. Highly recommended for authentic Indian cuisine.”

“Had heard so much about this place and was super excited to try, boy did this place deliver! The Ken Tuckyman chicken taco was world class and is a must try, the prawn taco was beautiful too. Really cool how the whole menu is gluten free. Highly recommend this place, give it a try next time you’re nearby. James Ashwin Kakapo Business Sales”

“The line of Taco Bell is a place I call home I live in ALBANY on the North Shore and it’s come to the point where every time I drive over the harbour Bridge I just know that it’s Taco Bell time. I’ve never tried anything else other than the double crispy chicken taco combo with a refreshing (not too sweet) (perfectly ratio’d syrup to soda) frozen vanilla Coke. I’m extremely grateful for the effort that the team puts into the food, the environment, consistency and the friendly faces that greet me as I walk through the front door. If you’re looking for a satisfying meal with heart and soul and passion, come on down to the Lunn Ave Taco Bell and find out for yourself what you are missing. I think I’m Taco Bell’s number one fan - my heart is yours. Love the work, keep it up. I’m cheering you on. Please add Baja blast. Forever and always xoxo”

“Amazing journey through different tastes. It was my first time here. Recommend to take preset menu as you will experience highlights of the restaurant. Service was professional. Dishes taste outstanding. Definitely must visit again to try others. Family friendly, have kids menu.”

“Great little sandwich shop tuckaway in the Elleslie village centre. Probably the best sandwich I had in Auckland. Refresh, tasty and full with flavour... Their coffee is really good and I'm a very picky coffee drinker. Recommended!!”

“Hi, I’m really disappointed with your food quality. It feels like you’re just taking customers’ money without giving proper value. Your chicken gyros were tasteless and oily — it seems you don’t really know how to make them right. You should honestly learn from CHICKING — their chicken gyros have perfect spice, taste, and oil balance. Please improve your quality if you want customers to come back.”

“Frindly staff, delicious churros. Tried them for the first time ever. A bit expensive, but worth it in my opinion. Delicous caramel sauce, warm and cinnamony churros.”

“Wow what an amazing place! First time in the staff Greeted me with a welcoming G'day. Unfortunately I'm gluten free (celiac) However this wasn't a problem as they had a few different opinions. The Kebab came out before I could sit down, To say the service was outstanding is an understatement. My first bite left me wondering if I should get up & order a second (the portion to price was definitely correct) it was absolutely delicious. This little store almost hidden away beat my expectation right out of the ball park, I will promise you one thing I will definitely be returning for more... Kind Regards, One very happy customer”

“Came with low expectations but actually really enjoyed the food. The coffee was good too. The pleasant surprise for me was that my salmon smash avo rosti had chili flakes sprinkled on top! It made my breakfast very exciting! Thank you”

“Great value and affordable and the food is really good lasagna was on point and the loaded spuds aka loaded fries.. worth 5 stars in my book”

“We loves Bella’s Pizza! Delicious pizza and great service. We recently went to a free school holiday pizza making workshop. Savi and the team were brilliant with the kids, stepping them through the pizza making process with kindness and encouragement. Thank you for your generosity Bella’s! Our kiddo rated it a billion out of 100! And was so proud to have made their own pizza. We highly recommend Bella’s pizza to all!”

“Excellent experience! The customer service was fantastic — the staff were friendly and attentive throughout. I had the jalapeño chicken quesadilla, and it was made perfectly — flavourful, well-balanced, and delicious. Highly recommend this place for both great food and great service!”

“New owners!!!! Definitely a big upgrade. Pretty impressive and generously loaded quantity of meat and sauces over the nachos. Visiting again and recommended for sure.”

“Unlike Thailand or Australian Taco Bell this one has Chalupas. This means NZ is officially better than Australia. If you have never had a chalupa you are missing out. They are crispy and soft all at the same time. Eating a chalupa is like biting into a super tasty cloud. Amazing.”

“Went here the first time. Ordered a nice seafood pizza. Asked if they have Tabasco, I was surprised, yes they have. Very nice, friendly and helpful staff. The pizza was very yummy and crispy, very enjoyable. Will come back for sure.”

“I’ve been coming to this place for a while now, and it never disappoints! The food is consistently amazing, but the real star here is the manager, who makes the BEST burritos I’ve ever had. Every bite is packed with flavor, perfectly balanced, and so satisfying. The service is always friendly and welcoming, making me feel like a valued customer every time. If you’re looking for authentic, delicious Mexican food, this spot is a must-visit. Highly recommend!””

“Excellent service. Excellent food quality. Everything here went above our expectations. Ribs, Chicken Buckets, Chicken & Waffles and Steak meals were all perfect! Outstanding jus with the steak.”

“Absolutely blown away by the service at Frida. Isabella was so friendly and accommodating. She provided us with blankets and even came back to confirm that the chefs knew about our dietary requirements - made such a difference for my gluten free friend. We were just thrilled, and then the food was amazing! Will absolutely be back. Thanks Isabella and Frida team!”

“VEGETARIANS: Went at 6pm on a Friday night and waited only about 30 minutes. Spent 40 dollars on so many different items. Favourite was the crunch supreme with beans and the soft/hard taco with beans. The cheese dip is TO DIE FOR when you dip the chips in it. They got my meal correct and didnt put meat in it which is very rate for fast food places these days. Really reccomend the cheesy gordita taco with beans. Such good food and happy staff despite how busy they were.”

“We wandered around Takapuna looking for somewhere nice to eat. As it was a public holiday the whole area was buzzing and it took ages to find anywhere and we ended up here. I kind of wanted to not like this place, but I couldn't. The service was great, the food was excellent, the venue was fresh, new and really cool. I definitively recommend going here.”

“Amanpreet really makes my day by making such a nice salad for me.I came here for the first time and felt very welcoming.Thank you Amanpreet-you are a star!”

“We just spent the last 6 months travelling Mexico and were very excited to find Casa Mexico in Pukekohe. Seriously delicious and authentic Mexican street tacos!! Highly recommend the pork carnitas and chicken tacos. Can’t wait to go back!!”

“Have been here several times and the food has always been amazing. Authentic Indian cuisine with a wide variety of options - and all vegetarian. Food is always fresh, and the prices are also pretty reasonable. The Indian sweets are on the pricier side though. I had the chole bhature, which was freshly made, the chole had a good spice level and the bhature was fluffy and hot! My favourite! The service itself is just alright and they now have mechanical carts delivering food, so it takes away some personal touches in my opinion.”

“My daughter and myself went in just earlier and got the spicy quesadilla and my daughter got the kids burrito. We got all the toppings, fillings and it was delicious!! Well priced and easy to access. Love the window seating especially in this hot Auckland weather”

“I had such an amazing time! The food was absolutely delicious and the service was incredibly friendly.”

“We are regular Texas Buyers & some of the staff are very welcoming. Don’t know them personally but name badge that girl had was Shikha , another Girl Gagandeep at Texas Manukau prepared amazing wraps. We had purchased 2 wraps yesterday but the quality of presentation was so poor half wrap empty inside. Today these girls did amazing job .”
