Hot lips has become a regular for my friend and I .
Great service, the most friendliest staff and amazing atmosphere.
Food although smaller portions (or maybe we’re just ordering wrong) has a great kick to it . Very tasty and satisfying. Looking forward to my next visit .
Love this place. Cool feel amazing food and pretty good cocktails. Only thing it is a bit expensive (but love the corn) but service is good too. Having been to Mexico this food tastes pretty authentic
Lovely service from the staff. I loved the quasadilla and the cerviche the most! Gorgeous presentation. Not huge portions and on a Saturday night had to wait 45 mins for a table, but we went across the road to grab a beer at the Vietnamese bar/restaurant for a drink so it worked well.
Our family rates this really highly because the service is outstanding,the food is innovative and delicious,and it has a cool vibe. The music is up lifting and impressive.
Have eaten here a number of times now and each time we're treated to friendly service, fresh and tasty flavours and an excellent cocktail menu. Keeps us coming back! Don't be fooled by the current low Zomato rating. Great Mexican!
Second time visiting Hot Lips & both times we have had a great experience. The food is full of flavour and I personally think it’s reasonably priced & portions are good.
Stand out dishes were the fish tacos & the ceviche. Don’t let the current Zomato rating stop you from trying this place out. It’s awesome!
Best Mexican in Bayside for sure, chilaquiles are to die for, loved the pork tacos, convenient being right opposite train station, so Happy they are now on UBER EATS
After seeing they were featured in Broadsheet Melbourne, I convinced my husband that we should check out our 'backyard' and try out some of their cocktails. And so we finally made it to Hot Lips and find out for ourselves what the fuss is all about. The venue projects fun vibe. Staff were truly helpful and attentive.
As first timers, we decided we go with the safest choice, "Hot Lips Margarita" - as you can't go wrong with a Margarita in a Mexican eatery. Unfortunately for me, it didn't hit the mark. It was ok... but not exceptional for the price $20. The Margarita Grenada was really nice. (I must say, I know what's a 'good' margarita as I have tasted plenty when we traveled to Arizona and New Mexico.) But I will still go back to try other things on their menu. Just glad that we have a few happening places in Highett to choose from (and we don't have to go to the City to chill).
I've travelled through Mexico more times than I can count, and it's rare for me to be anything but disappointed by Melbourne's attempts at the cuisine. This place was a nice surprise and maybe something of a hidden gem for those generally too shy to venture too far out of the inner-city. A friend took me here and I ended up trying a good few of the dishes over a few trips there. Having some good chilaquiles on offer locally and a decent ceviche has been a real highlight of the times I've eaten at Hot Lips.
Service is great too, and the drinks list is excellent.
Great night out once again at Hot Lips especially with those prawn tacos...mmmmm. Our waitress was so lovely and attentive, and made great recommendations. even shared her brand of beautiful red lipsticks!! Highly recommend an aperol spritz. Keep it up, guys!
One of the most delicious Mexican flan I've ever tried 😋. AMAZING 👏
The chef is amazing and the staff are very friendly. My Japanese friend loved Mexican food, 100% I'll come back soon 😋
Food was amazing first of all but the staff were just so lovely and the vibe/atmosphere was so cheerful. The cooks were awesome and so friendly, we can’t wait to go back again. Really made our night was super fun.
The Gordita’s were especially amazing and the Alambre was incredible. The drinks were very delicious cannot go wrong with this place it is a winner.
Took my family to celebrate my birthday, we had a party of 7. My family have many years of hospitality experience and we’re extremely impressed with our server (Jordan)The food was delicious as expected. Thank you Hot Lips
After going to a down market Mexican restaurant in Aspendale Hot Lips Hacienda outclassed this restaurant in terms of quality, variety and price. With so many share options that were a flavour bomb to your mouth to interesting twists on Margaritas you won't be disappointed. Got more, paid less will be back!
Place was lovely, food was delicious!! And sizes were perfect. Definitely I’ll come back to try other dishes 😊
Small food and small drinks menu, but everything we ordered was pretty tasty. Food came out super fast. Took parents here and they said we are coming back :-)
Excellent service, we had a large group sitting and the staff, particularly Alex, were exceptionally accomodating. Food was delightful and the cocktails were fantastic.
