Excellent cafe food but experience was only tainted when purchasing some Masa flour to make tortillas at home. Bought a bag that was pre-opened with 750 grams. I asked the lady serving how much for 1 kg and she said $12.00 but I can have the pre-opened bag for $10.00. $10.00 is the regular price on the website for 1 kg!! So in summary decent selection of Mexican imported food for Auckland but beware very pricey product and unscrupulous staff

I am seriously addicted to the Beef taco’s here. They are chargrilled magic.

Only downside is that it is out of the way, and not open enough. But even that is not enough to knock off a star.

Yum!

My absolute favourite place to eat out !! Food is to die for , fresh, light & amazing flavours ! This is the real deal – legit Mexican food , nothing like the americanised mexican food that we see all around us today. I can’t wait to go back

Been here twice and loved it! Wished I could stay longer and tried more food (both times were lunch breaks in btwn work). Shame they only open for lunch. The food is authentic and reasonably priced. feels like I’m eating at a witch doctor’s (brujas/brujos) kitchen, with all types of mexican paraphernalia on display. I just wish they do something about all the disposable plates and cups used tho, feels like such a waste.

I’ve been meaning to come here for some time, but work commitments and the limited hours it is open never allowed for it. I am SO GLAD I finally found the time!
We loved the look of the place! Quirky and interesting, the mis-matched seating arrangements and bustling atmosphere just added to the whole experience. This is definitely not the place to go if you are looking for a quiet and refined restaurant. Thoroughly enjoyed checking out some of the knick-knacks available for purchase.
The food – loved it! I spent some time in New Mexico five or six years ago, and ever since then I’ve been craving authentic chili rellenos. Imagine my delight when I saw it on the menu!! Naturally, that is what I ordered. My son was dining with me, and he ordered the chicken enchilada.
Both of our meals were delicious, and they came out amazingly fast! The service was quick, friendly and helpful(once I told them this was my first visit).
My chili relleno was fabulous, the flavours so rich and delicious, I wished I had ordered two! My son pronounced his enchilada delicious, though when I gave him a taste of my relleno he wished he had ordered that.
From the little experience I have had with authentic mexican flavours, I would say this the real deal. If you haven’t been already, put it on your must-do list – you won’t be disappointed.
I am going back again this week and I can’t wait!!

The food is excellent! The only reason I don’t give it 5 starts is because it is pr icy for the amount of food you get. A good lunch will be $20-25. A main, plus at least 1 side and a drink. A bit pr icy, but if you want a great Mexican lunch, proudly the best in NZ.

My parents are both from Mexico and I grew up eating 6 out of 7 days a week.

Excellent & authentic. It’s hard in NZ to find good Mexican food – this is one of the best. It’s difficult to get a seat now – become too popular. Prices have certainly risen over the last year or so – not a cheap lunch anymore. Range of ingredients that you can buy is good.

Had lunch here last Friday. The food was very good. Tables & chairs aren’t comfy – but diningroom is quite eclectic & interesting. Get your own cutlery & plastic plates isn’t too flash. Pricing is a tad high but good value due to the food being great.

Only truly authentic Mexican place in Auckland. Delicious cheap food with a real flair.

A very nice little laid-back place with the only authentic Mexican food that I have found in Auckland. Very good prices, nice people and tasty food. The genuine Mexican products are well-priced. Go and try it before these guys become well-known and commercial!

Not only is the food fantastic it is the friendliness of the owners who are passionate about both the food and their customers. Their sauces which they make and you can purchase to take home are fantastic and are a staple in my kitchen. Its worth a trip for lunch or just for the cakes….

If you want real Mexican food this is the one and only in Auckland, authentic tasty food made by real Mexicans, open for lunch Thurs to Sat only, its small but well worth a visit. Everything is fresh and tasty. Great atmosphere even when busy. They also sell little gifts and canned food from Mexico.
