The food was really nice. The only complaint is that no drinks or anything was offered for about 25 minutes. Once it started there were no issues.

Finding good, authentic latin american food can be challenging in Melbourne...especially for someone who thinks the perfect food are roadside tacos in Mexico. Los Amates might not be roadside tacos, but they're the next best thing. I'll be back. cheers!

Great amosphere. Nachos were delicious! Staff were really friendly and attentive. We were seated in the walkway which wasnt ideal- would ask to be seated somewhere differently next time. We also ordered ceviche which we weren't overly happy with- very small pieces of fish which got lost in the salsa

So much yum. An old favourite with some of the best mole sauce in Melbourne. Margs are refreshing, guac is delicious and the fish tacos are sensational.

The food was great but they seated us right out at the back in a separate room. It was freezing and felt isolated from the rest of the restaurant.

My favourite restaurant in Melbourne! I have been coming here for 3 years and everything about Los Amates is amazing - the food is amazing, the staff are amazing and the vibe and atmosphere makes you feel like your in your Anuela's kitchen. It literally doesn't get any better.

Great place for a celebration. The staff were incredible, from the chef, the wait and the bar staff. Some of our guests were unhappy with our initial seating arrangement, we were relocated when another table became available. One of our guests has a food allergy, the chef actually came out to confirm the order and modified it for us. The food was incredibly tasty and the final bill very easy on the pocket. Loved it. Thank you very much.

The style of the menu changed a bit and I found it a bit hard to read. I was very tired though. Anyway, the food was still very good. The service however, is exceptional. Very friendly staff. And they don't act as if they are being friendly because it's part of their job, they just seem like very nice people. Very natural.

Real authentic Mexican food. The back patio is well heated, and being seated there durinng the winter is not an issue. I particularly like the Puntas al Chipotle, which the menu describes as: Charred chunks of beef steak w/ a tomato and chipotle sauce served with rice, beans and 4 corn tortillas. I admit to not fully exploring the menu, as I tend to order the same thing over and over, but my dinner companions have never had a bad word to say. Occasionally, they do special events for Cinco de Mayo and Day of the Dead.

Yummy food and friendly staff. The share plate to start with was more than enough for our group of 5 people and was lovely to try a range of things in a small sample style. Fab music and Mexican things on the walls

The staff are fast but also no-nonsense in their service which I liked. The menu selection is great and the food was delicious. I've never been to Mexico but this seemed a lot more authentic than most places and it was all for a good price (especially when in Fitzroy!)

The service was excellent. It was good Mexican food for Australia but would be considered average in California. The ambience was fair. I would recommend the taquitos and guacamole.
