    Wonderful servings full of flavor and the freshest guacamole and salsa. Best Mexican food restaurant in Johannesburg. Try the Burritos. Great family lunch outing and place for friends to hang out.

    Classical and Americanised Mexican dishes in a quirky, vibey and fun setting. The nachos are highly recommended and sought after!

    Margarita slushies are delicious! My favourite is the half strawberry half lime. Love their chili poppers and veg fajitas.

    Nice vibe and good selection of food and drink. Service not the greatest. Get the nacho's, they're really good.

    Great food but would have enjoyed more actual Mexican orientated music, keep it authentic!

    Give the waiters free reign with choosing your tequila. Give em a budget and let them pick it. They're good.

    The foursquare special is a bit tough to achieve - how about twice in a week or 4 times in a fortnight?

    "Bro, this ain't Sandton," said the waiter after we suggested the service was below par. Upside is if you are insistent on it they can throw a round of drinks on the house. Call them out!

    Sadly, this fabulous Mexican food venue is no longer. RIP Cafe Mexicho, you will be missed but never forgotten.

    On our visit the management staff were drunk, and when we informed them of our concerns, we were insulted and handled by an unruly drunk. Our waiters were excellent but unprofessional managers. Poor.

    Don't understand the hype. The food had no flavour, the last thing one would expect, its a Mexican restaurant after all! The food was way overpriced, R95 for a bland Barito!

    Shocking service, rude waiters and the quality of food has gone down the drain. I got food poisoning after eating here last. Used to be a great place, such a pity.
