El Mexicano Kitchen & Bar - Glenelg

The service was friendly as always and the food was excellent too.

Nice food and pleasant service. Fist time visit in Glenelg

It was amazing food but one of the meals came out was chicken instead of vegan and my friend didn’t realise as she thought it was fake chicken at the start and then realised it was different from mine which was also vegan. My other friend waited 2 hours for their tacos which was not good.

It was good visit and will recommend to our friends

Awful service from seating to ordering & delivery.... I can't find anything positive to say. No napkins on the table, food not brought out at the same time as requested, no sharing plates, I could go on. Food was so below average. From over charred corn to sloppy tacos, non existant mango chutney & overdressed slaw that could have been from a previous made supermarket packet. Terrible. AVOID

Very good. Lovely food and vibes. Love the churros 😋

Great food, and excellent service from Sumeet. Not too loud as well

Service from the blond waiter was great, friendly all done with a smile

Food was great and staff was friendly but disorganised and inattentive

Beautiful family meal. Met all our expectations and an enjoyable evening had by all

Although the food is always amazing, with each subsequent visit the service is getting worse and worse. To have two of three drinks delivered to your table and end up having to go into the bar to find out where it is, just to see it sitting on the bar, is ridiculous especially when you’ve nearly finished your meal. A table of three people with only two serviettes and sets of cutlery available to use; simple things easily fixed with a bit of attention, that really take away from a great night.

Excellent service, attentive and friendly. Prompt service and great tasting food.

Great staff and service, great food, great ambience. Very enjoyable.

Yummy traditional Mexican food and even better margaritas! 10/10

Nice place with great vibes in the heart of Glenelg. It is on the busy street with steep staircase to get to the restaurant upstairs. Food quality was good, great service from the wait staff and priced reasonably for a great night out. Might want to avoid if there are mobility concerns.

We ordered Vegan tofu loaded fries for a starter. Had to be returned TWICE! First the chef used cows milk and the second time they used cows milk shredded cheese. The vegan tofu loaded fries arrived at the end of the dinner! Cannot believe that they charged us for them. First and last visit to this restaurant. Paella was not very tasty either, to oily and not at all like a Spanish dish, experience and food very disappointing!

In my opinion everything was perfect and the service was just amazing .Thanks for the beautiful surprise with the happy birthday song at the end of the dinner for my father' s birthday. Regards Cristina

Great service and really tasty delicious food! Got a table outside on the balcony which was really nice on such a warm evening 🤩

Dreadful customer service - we waited 45 minutes for a drink! We did not bother waiting around for dinner!

Booking was easy & fuss free Service with a smile and very genuine/helpful Food was delicious, fast & authentic 👌🏼 Prices reasonable Great experience all round for a Mexican food lover!!

The food was amazing and the staff were lovely. Thankyou

The service was amazing and the food and drinks were delicious

We booked the bottomless lunch. Sat for 40 minutes and didn’t receive any food or drinks so we left. They were understaffed and under prepared. The waitress wasn’t even aware of the brunch deal. It would have cost $78 for 90 minute. Went to another restaurant on Jetty Road and had a bottomless brunch. Cost $60, endless drinks and food arrived within 15 minutes. I would not recommend this to anyone.

Fantastic food, great atmosphere and the margaritas were unbelievable! Will return

Firstly the food is fantastic at El Mexicano. It’s fresh, full of flavour and the staff are so friendly. The problem we had is that the meals on our table came to us at different times so the first person was almost finished their dish by the time the last of us got ours. It’s not a huge deal but when you’re dining as a group (only 4 of us BTW) you really want to be eating together. Maybe it was an exception, but it was our experience.

Great food, great atmosphere. Service was a bit slow but it was a busy night. The gentlemen welcoming guests and checking reservations was not the most welcoming but overall we’ve had a great visit and enjoyed our time.

The staff were amazing, hard working, friendly and super welcoming. Venue very funky. Unfortunately the veggie option was tofu, which we didn't realize until we received our food. Found this quite surprising as we expected the veggie option to be beans especially in a Mexican restaurant! Had this been the case, the food would have been fabulous!

Great evening in El Mexicano! Fantastic food, super kind staff, amazing atmosphere!

Amazing food, great staff, lovely atmosphere, will be back again soon!

Delicious food, lovely staff and a fun and vibrant atmosphere.

Birthday dinner celebration, enjoyed drinks, starters and mains. Some confusion though regarding their $14 margaritas on a Monday offer- staff stated they were unaware but then advised only 2 drinks available and when shown the advertisement stating all margaritas are $14 on a Monday they then changed the pricing!

Group of 4 all thoroughly enjoyed our meals. Great menu choices and good service

An hour and a quater to get food with no 'sorry'. One main out 15 mins before next. Very average

Friendly and accommodating service, great food. We will be back!

Great food and friendly service, only a short wait between ordering and food arriving.

Well worth the walk up the stairs! Everyone in our party was most impressed with our meal. The portion size was very generous for the price. Will certainly visit again

beautiful food, great setting and atmosphere very friendly staff highly recommend

Food and service amazing as always, highly recommend a visit

Food was delicious and there were many things we want to come back and try. Unfortunately there was a large table of guests next to us that were very very loud with unruly children running wild that took away from the meal. That was not the restaurants fault, we will be back

Another amazing meal with very quick delivery of our meals. Great service, as always.

Fun atmosphere at El Mexicano. Friendly staff. The music is nice but a little loud depending where you sit. Good food choices for people who prefer vegetarian options also delicious cocktails (& mocktails!) plus Mexican hot chocolate perfect on a cold day.

Great place, lovely food, staff were friendly but not over the top, let us enjoy our meal together

Main course arrived when entree half finished. Consequently not hot.

Food was delicious. Waitress was professional and helpful. Great lunch.

After being seated we sat at the table with no drinks or service for 15 mins while waiting to order food, other than that everything else was OK

Great service and food was excellent, definitely go there again

Beautiful everything, delicious food and some geniuses, the employees!! ❤️❤️❤️

great atmosphere and lovely, helpful and friendly staff. fast service, with tasty and amazing food. always a great experience

Wanted to try this place because reviews have been good and it’s new to us as we always go to same place for Mexican. Service was prompt and friendly. Food was ok.

Amazing food. Great service and atmosphere. Thank you very much.
