    Loved the tacos! Had Baja fish and lamb. Shared a side of chips and guacamole. And topped off with a frozen margarita. Good meal and conversations!

    So far I have enjoyed most of the dishes I've tried here, but my favourites have gotta be the ceviche de mango, crab tostaditas, and salted caramel & sweet corn ice cream! Flavours pack a punch!

    Tried 3 diff tacos and fav is Baja fish. The corn on cob is expensive at $8 but it is so well done! Order the corn chip with salsa/guacamole to start with. Valet parking available at $7

    Seafood ceviche is scrumptious and so are the softshell tacos. Great outdoor ambiance with the constant breeze, soft piazza lights, music and of cos awesome food.

    This place has a cool vibe & great people watching. The food is ok, very authentic. The drink menu is awesome. Really good selection to choose from. The staff is friendly but service needs improving.

    Slightly pricey for the portions but the food and alcohol is good! Ambience is fun. There's a tall hot muscular Mexican/malay staff there, look out for him!

    Love this place. Really good music on weekends. Great drinks and snacks but definitely on the pricier side. Come here with someone who knows the owner :)

    Well concocted spices on the corn cob. Fish for sharing is lovely. Great place for a Friday night hangout. If only there was better weather for al fresco dining!

    Best mexican in Singapore! Avoid the shots from the cart though, they are $25 each and they don't tell you before they pour them. Food is fantastic!

    Not the best Mexican but the tacos are good (especially liked the snapper & pork belly). I'd also recommend the crab tostidas. Quesadillas are nothing to rave about & drinks are pretty standard.

    they only take bookings for large groups, but also hold tables arbitrarily BUT they don't take reservations. They're either rude or incompetent, I can't quite work out which.
