    Unfortunately our experience wasnt the best as apparently the kitchen was under staffed. The food was incredibly slow. The drinks came out at a good pace, cocktails were yum. The waiters were nice. The food wasn't anything special when it came out.

    Just had food here for the first time after moving back from Texas, where I lived for 10 years—and let me tell you, I never had a burrito like this, even in Texas! I wasn’t expecting to be this impressed, but now I can’t wait to come back and try more of the menu. Highly recommend!

    The $49 feed me menu at this Richmond gem is an absolute steal! By the end, we were so full we had to take our dessert to go. The chook burritos and ceviche were standout dishes, while the new spicy senorita cocktail was the perfect complement to our meal. The service has noticeably improved since our last visit. Despite being packed, the staff remained attentive and accommodating throughout our experience. This place has easily earned its spot among one of the best restaurants in Richmond for us. Highly recommend for anyone looking for exceptional value and delicious Mexican cuisine.

    I am an avid cocktail lover, and I try out new cocktails and margaritas everywhere I go. Hands down, the best cocktail and margarita in Melbourne. My favorites was the Spicy Blood Orange. The whole venue was such a vibe!
