👍👍 We came for the happy hour but ended up having dinner as well. The waiter who helped us (unfortunately I can’t remember his name) was amazing, he explained how the happy hour worked and recommended us what to order. He was paying attention to all tables all the time, it was probably the best service... People often mention good, tacos, Mexican, service, staff, restaurant, great, delicious, friendly, nice,

    My partner and I set up at an upstairs table for an afternoon/evening of eating and drinking. We made good use of the happy hour to lubricate the afternoon, and drank at least half a dozen of what I have to say was the best Caiprioska I've ever had. The food was exceptional. The tacos were fresh and light, but packed with flavor. The duck enchiladas rich and meaty. Service was very friendly and helpful, and the atmosphere fun and lively. A bit more expensive than other Ubud offerings, but still excellent value compared to Oz. Highly recommended if you are after delicious Mexican and cocktails to match.

He was paying attention to all tables all the time, it was probably the best service I’ve ever experienced in a restaurant. Drinks were great and food was AMAZING. Really, one of the best Mexicans I’ve ever tried. You HAVE TO GO.

    OMG this is my new favourite place! From the food which is some of the best Mexican I've had... anywhere (and I've been to South America/Mexico! To the restaurant itself which is just beautiful and also possibly the cleanest restaurant I've seen in Bali right down to the immaculate toilets (And I always judge place by its toilets)! Sit upstairs if you can 😱 Its amazing. Let's talk about the service- we had Yoga as out server and while ALL the staff were 5 ⭐ Yoga provided the best service we've ever, he was just amazing I cannot rave about him enough! As a side note he also had the best English I've heard in Bali. I loved this place so much and was so taken with the place my boyfriend he used the opportunity to propose 💍 The staff were beyond amazing and sneakily helped him organise it💖

    I eat my fair share of Mexican food. It’s probably my favorite style of cuisine, just behind Italian. I’m always skeptical of eating different cultural food when I’m on vacation but we went here on a recommendation from a friend. We were glad we did. We did not have cocktails just a few Bintangs and ordered 5 different plates. Long story short, the food here is amazing and I would definitely come back. The Mexican inspired dishes were flavorful and well thought of. The banoffe pie for dessert was unreal. The charred broccoli salad is something I’d come back for. We are only here for another week in Bali but I’d come back and eat here 👍

    I like the Nachos... It was autumn, and the Indians on the remote reservation asked their new Chief if the winter was going to be cold or mild. Since he was an Indian Chief in a modern society, he had never been taught the old secrets, and when he looked at the sky, he couldn't tell what the hell the weather was going to be. Nevertheless, to be on the safe side,he replied to his tribe that the winter was indeed going to be cold and that the members of the village should collect wood to be prepared. But also being a practical leader, after several days he got an idea.He went to the phone booth, called the National Weather Service and asked, "Is the coming winter going to be cold?" "It looks like this winter is going to be quite cold indeed," the Meteorologist at the weather service responded. So the Chief went back to his people and told them to collect even more wood in order to be prepared. One week later he called the National Weather Service again."Is it going to be a very cold winter?" he asked. "Yes," the man at National Weather Service again replied,"it's going to be a very cold winter." The Chief again went back to his people and ordered them to collect every scrap of wood they could find. Two weeks later he called the National Weather Service again. "Are you absolutely sure that the winter is going to be very cold?" "Absolutely," the man replied. "It looks like it's going to be one of the coldest winters ever." "How can you be so sure?" the Chief asked. The weatherman replied, "The Indians are collecting firewood like crazy".

    (Translated by Google) Delicious Nachos !!! Nachos were delicious. Quesadilla was fine. The margarita that I went to is a famous margarita. It's a spicy cocktail. It's a mysterious experience. It wasn't bad with nachos, but it wasn't enough to drink. The frozen mango margarita is delicious. Nacho is really delicious. (Original) Delicious Nachos!!! 나초는 맛있었어요. 퀘사디야도 괜찮았고.. 할라피뇨들어간 마가리타는 유명하다기에 시켜봤는데 매운 칵테일이라니 신기한 경험.. 나쵸와 궁합이 나쁘지 않았지만 여러잔 마실만한건 아닌듯.. 프로즌 망고 마가리타가 맛있어요. 나쵸는 진짜 맛있어요.

    Good food, go for their corn fritters with chilli jam. 2 stories of seatings. The place can get a tad warm so pick a good seat. They have Friday 1 for 1 drinks.

    Whatever you do, leave room for desert and get the brownie with ice cream. Thank me later!

  • 4/5 Alex V. 4 years ago on Google
    The food here is excellent (the nachos are the best I’ve ever had) and the cocktails (especially the flavoured margheritas) are delicious. Lost a star for the price - it’s a little too expensive for the type of food they serve. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in Ubud.

    (Translated by Google) Delicious and authentic Mexican street food. Very good vegan tacos (with "meat" from Jackfruit)! Margarita a little too sweet for my taste but lovely staff and nice restaurant. (Original) Délicieuse et authentique street food mexicaine. Très bons tacos vegan (avec "viande" de Jackfruit) ! Margarita un peu trop sucrée à mon goût mais personnel adorable et restaurant agréable.

    This place was such a great break from the norm. The tacos were great and this is coming from a Californian who lives on Mexican food. I assumed they would be traditional street tacos but they weren’t. They were larger tacos so one order of 3 is quite a bit of food. I tried a variety of things while I was there to get a flavor of their style. The amuse buche was a welcomed surprise! I ordered the Escquites (charred sweet corn and chipotle mayo), the Tinga de Pollo Tostaditas and the carnitas tacos. All were super delicious! The Escquites was a bit over dressed with Mayo but the flavor profile was nice. The atmosphere and service were wonderful.

    Best food. Prices are good for what you get, we loved every bite of it! We took the cevice, the fish tacos, corisos and nachos. The service is great and the place is designed really well.

  • 5/5 Julia K. 4 years ago on Google
    Absolutely loved it! Strong mohitos, very delicious food - the fundido was awesome, as were the pork ribs and the duck enchilada my family ordered. A definitive must try - brownie with ice cream. Staff very friendly, the prices are ok.

    Nice place with a chilled vibe. Food was very good and the staff was very friendly, with constant smile on their faces.

  • 5/5 Rob T. 4 years ago on Google
    When Lionel Richie’s ‘oh what a feeling when you're dancing on the ceiling’ is playing, it’s hard not to walk past any restaurant. But, Mexican in Bali? Sure that works. Fantastically greeted by the friendly host ‘Yuli’ was a great start, and right on time for happy-hour (between 5-7pm) I can’t go wrong. A great place for a drink and taco plus a successful diversion from the Warung’s, why not!

  • 5/5 Farrah A. 3 years ago on Google
    Seriously... people... BEST MEXICAN RESTAURANT.. I would say, I have ever had in Indonesia!!!! Try the chorizo potato, Carnitas and ceviche. They are oh....sooo....gooood!!

    (Translated by Google) A good place. Delicious cocktails, in particular mojito. Food is ok, prices are a bit high for this level. (Original) Хорошее место. Вкусные коктейли, в частности мохито. Еда нормальная, цены высоковаты для данного уровня.

  • 5/5 Alexandra P. 4 years ago on Google
    Perfect mix of great interior design and open-faced restaurant where you can soak up the atmosphere of Jl. Sri Wedari. The staff were so welcoming and seemed to genuinely care about if we were enjoying our food. Everything was spotlessly clean too. Wonderful!

  • 2/5 HEYITSPREE 4 years ago on Google
    Stay away from this restaurant, both my partner and I got food poisoning after eating here last night. Also no authentic Mexican as they don't have fajitas and burritos. The chicken enchilada had a very funny and odd smell, they were foul and not at all enjoyable. The only good thing is the friendly staff here.

  • 5/5 Brian C. 4 years ago on Google
    Awesome service, really good food, especially the nachos, great vibe, although no AC, just fans. Loved it

    This is a mexican restaurant stay in Ubu, I got a cocktail it was pretty good, the good is nice but not amazing as what I think. The price here is quite higher than normal. Btw here they have nice place to sit and enjoy foods and watching the road.

👍 Ordinary food in a spectacular location, in the middle of rice paddy. The crispy duck is really crispy, a bit too dry. The sate lilit is delicious. The gurami goreng bit bland / tasteless.
