Massive regret. Ordered 2 cocktails. 1 came AFTER the meal. The other didn't come at all with the explanation they didn't have the ingredients. While we waited for our 2 meals(and drinks) we ordered corn chips and salsa and then fried chips and Chipotle turned up. I ordered a quesdilla which was was only pulled pork and 4 bits of canned pineapple and 6 bits of canned corn. Flavourless and disappointing. Then we were waiting on one main meal to go (got one cocktail at this point) and the host with blue hair said "oh did you order a meal?" ... so we got 2/5 of what we ordered. Worst experience ever. Would never ever recommend this place. Oh to add people next to us tried to order a few different meals but were quickly said "no" because they didn't have the ingredients.

Honestly the worst Mexican in Melbourne I have ever eaten at. Went there with a group from work...should have turned back when no one else was in it on a busy beautiful sunny day. tentatively ordered some crispy sweet potato chips to start our meal off with (anything but crispy) - they were terrible. Then we had a plate of nachos to share, they were microwaved nachos with some packet guacamole, jar tacos sauce, and sour-cream slathered over the top... For main I ordered the signature dish "butter chicken burrito" as it was a fusion restaurant I wanted to see what that meant... It was terrible. Just mush and rice and sauce, nothing fresh or good about it. I had to add sauce (the options: Masterfoods Smokey BBQ (?!?), Tabasco and Chahula) to make it somewhat flavoursome. My friend who ordered a vegetarian quesadilla, found chicken within his. Honestly I'm going to be surprised if I don't have a stomach ache within the next 30mins... There is nothing authentic or fresh about this food. I hope that they take this review and try to incorporate something fresh into their menu... at the very least put some music on to add some kind of ambiance and replace of the smokey BBQ sauce with some proper hot sauces!!! How hard can it be...

Avoid at all costs. The nachos were just bad, topped with store bought salsa and guac. The sweet potato fries were soggy & oily. To top it all off, there was some chicken in my vegetarian quesadilla.
