    Food was fairly expensive for just average food and drinks. There are much better Mexican restaurants.

    Fantastic food, packed with flavour! We have the tower of margaritas too! Yummo! The pricing was great and serving size good. The only draw back for us was that it was a bit noisy. Some people may prefer the noise for atmosphere, but it was loud. Would recommend this restaurant to anyone who enjoys Mexican foods & flavours. Thank you for a fabulous meal. Perhaps the balcony seating for us next time.

    The food was good. However the service was mediocre at best. Got food before drinks after 30 minutes at our table. Seemed short staffed.

    The seafood curry paella was disgusting could not eat it. It only had 4 prawns on top of very soggy rice. Complained but got no response from the kitchen

    Wouldn’t allow us to sit outside until we asked again. Wasn’t clear on how to order, we assumed table service. Wrong meals were delivered. We would have ordered more drinks but the line to order was too long so it was easier to just leave.

    Pros: Lovely place, big dining area with plenty of tables and seating which are not too crowded. Ordering which was done at the bar. The server confirmed and double checked the order. Price was very reasonable. Had 3 appetizer, 2 mains, 1 mojito, 1 coke can and 1 sparkling water for $123. Cons: Ladies bathroom reminds me of a high school horror movie where someone can crawl under the stalls. $3.50 for a scoop of guacamole is daylight robbery!

    There is no table service to order, you need to go to the bar to order, and there’s a long queue. The food was good but tacos very small for $8.50 each, so not good value. Margaritas were good. We found the other venue in the city much better. Glenelg lacked customer service.
