I was convinced to go into this place by my partner as we walked past hungry. Looking in, it did nothing for me especially with all the choice in the area. However my pork burrito was fresh, tasty and rather large.
Won’t rush back but it was ok.

Terrible.
Ordered a chicken burrito, got about 5 grains of rice on it and hardly any chicken.
My friend got the vegetarian burrito, they put the tiniest bit of onion on it, realised it was “too much” and took some off again and put one sliver of pepper on.
Not too keen on spending $13 on a flavourless, cold, empty wrap.
NOT RECOMMENDED.

Ate here twice in just a few days after discovering the place…YUM! Taco’s are super tasty and fresh – quite authentic tasting…Service was great – no complaints at all! Definitely recommend!

Not good but not bad either. Just a middle of the line Mexican place. The food is OK. Good place for a quick bite to eat.

Every time I’m in Ponsonby, this is the first place I stop at to get my Mexican on. They have a great selection of ingredients to choose from (both soft and hard shells) and is a complete flavour explosion in your mouth.
The only gripe I have is usually you have to buy more than one to be completely satisfied, but who cares right? It’s Ponsonby and pricey and that’s why we love it!

Looks like a hip mexican takeaway place but food was forgetful. Got a steak taco with crispy corn one Fri evening to eat-in; it was pricy and the flavour was nondescript. Not somewhere I’ll try again, better value for money elsewhere definitely. Can’t understand how they survived; probably from late-night drunken munchers.

Food was average, guy that rides fixed gear working that night… above average.

I’ve never considered Mexican food hard to do. The ingredients (at least on the taco/burrito level) are simple, as are the cooking processes.
Why then does this place churn out such tasteless food?
I want to like it so bad, but everything I’ve had lacks flavor. The meats are under-seasoned, there’s no cilantro or lime anywhere and the salsas add heat instead of actual flavor. The roasted red pepper salsa only tastes of heat. There’s no roasted anything flavor in it.
I’d understand if this was a country where some of the ingredients were hard to come by, but that’s not the case.
I hope they step it up so that by the time I forget how forgettable the food is and return I’m pleasantly surprised.

This place can be really tasty! Its a bit on the just above average price, and sometimes you will get one person who will give you lots of toppings and then next time one who gives not so much, but really yummy and worth a visit if your in a Mexican food mood!
