Overview
Suitable for all ages
This is a chain restaurant with 4 branches in Auckland and another in each of Wellington, Hamilton and Christchurch. The one in Britomart and others around the country have been recommended and they offer the same menu and set up, so the other branches should be good too. Let me know here if you’ve visited the other Auckland branches.
There’s a varied menu, with some typical and not so familiar Mexican dishes on offer. There are some smaller plates (‘snacks’) which would allow you to sample a few dishes if you wanted or just have as starters followed by a main dish.
There’s a kids’ menu which doubles as an activity page (maze, colouring and word search) and offers simplified dishes from the main menu but without the spice. It seems to be much healthier than your average restaurant (I didn’t see any chips on the menu)!
As well as the activity page and colouring pens, kids were also given a Mexican wrestler mask. There’s also amazing artwork on the walls for kids (and adults) to look at or play eye spy with! Highchairs available.
TOP TIP: Special deal on Sundays – kids (under 12) eat free with paying adults.
