What customers say?

“ Raw Tuna was like the best choice we’ve made ever so many layers of flavour and the amount of tuna was so generous! The waiter was super friendly and funny, gave us great food recommendations such as the tuna. It has good vibes in there, we had a great time! The oyster was also so fresh and creamy?! Better than the ones I’ve had in Sydney crazy ”

“ Phenomenal Mexican restaurant serving authentic and tex Mex cusine. The flavours were fresh and bright. Every dish was a win. What made our experience truly unique was the knowledge and expertise of the bartender. She helped walk us through an impromptu Tequila master class. The knowledge shared was incredible and made for a truly memorable experience. Thank you so much to the team and keep up the good work! ”

“ Was lucky enough to get a walk-in at Tres a Cinco the other night and had a great time. While the dishes were a bit small, they were very satisfying and packed with flavor. I recommend you order just a bit more if you're hungry. The real star of the show was the dessert - Tres Leches cake. A must try that I will definitely be back for. ”

“ Went here to have dippy tacos for the first time, they were really nice. We had the crab balls on corn chips, the chicken skewers and the pork taco before having the dippy tacos (sorry don't know the actual names) all food was yummy and if we ever come back to Melbourne will visit again. Highlights. $12 cocktails with a decent amount of tequila, finding out Chihuahua wasn't an ingredient more referring to an area of Mexico. If anything let the meal down it would have been good to have a bigger dipping bowl. All good food and drinks highly recommend ”

“ Big shoutout to Hector and Derek for making us feel more than welcome. Their service is truly outstanding and of course, food and drinks were incredible. Serving was more than reasonable for its price, and overall a beautiful experience. We ordered fish and beef tacos, Ala de Pescado, and tres leches, all sooooo good!!!! I’ll definitely come back and will recommend this place. Muchas Gracias! ”

“ This Mexican restaurant is simply outstanding. Clever, well thought out flavours with high quality ingredients in a casual setting. Being in the famous Hosier Lane, I must admit I was expecting a tourist trap. Quite the opposite, sensational food and friendly, attentive service, it was just brilliant. If you love creative Mexican food, this is a must go restaurant. However, I recommend booking otherwise you will struggle to get a table. July 2025 update, our second visit here and still this restaurant delivers an amazing experience. Simple Mexican dishes that are made with a contemporary edge. This casual restaurant with high quality dishes and friendly and attentive service sets this restaurant apart from the pack. I say again, if you are a food lover, this restaurant is must go. ”

“ The food is absolutely delicious, and the Mexican atmosphere is amazing, the decoration and music instantly teleport you to Mexico! The only downside is that the portions are very small. If you’re really hungry, you’ll need to order 2 or 3 dishes, as the servings are tiny and the price feels like it should include more. ”
