Highly recommend the fish tacos here! The fish was so crispy and was served perfectly with various sauces. Super affordable feast if you come on Tuesdays for $3 tacos or get the all you can eat tacos deal.
Great service. Food came quick. Would recommend getting fish and bulgogi tacos.
really very good food - not authentic mexican - more latin-californian but still really kick ass - so so good
fun staff - really friendly even when super busy
Real good value especially on tuesdays.
I saw on wednesday's they have all their cocktails for $15, def going back for this!!!
highly recommend
great playlists!!!!
I visited this place on a Tuesday when they have the tacos for $3 special. This was a really great deal for some really great tacos. The crispy fish was definitely my favourite. The Korean fried chicken was alright as I found the chicken a little bit dry. The pumpkin one was very nice and creamy and the bulgogi beef rib was full of flavour. Happy to come back!
Absolutely buzzing for a Tuesday night with their $3 Taco Tuesday promo. The tacos are really fresh and flavour packet. My favourite was the beef bulgogi.
The churros were honestly a bit overpriced and not on the same level as the tacos taste wise
We ordered chicken tacos but were convinced that it was tuna when it arrived ?? Didn’t dispute cause it was good anyways. The squid was superstar dish.
We couldn’t do the all you can eat tacos because we wanted to go in for dinner and drinks on the Friday night, but the reviews and pics were good so we went anyways! We were a hungry group of 6 and could not make up our minds so we went with the Mexicola set menu. I would definitely recommend ordering the truck stop guac, chargrilled corn and fish tacos! Cheeseburger spring rolls was a fun try however not a must try. The churros was definitely unique, never had churros like this but it tasted amazing with the caramel sauce. Definitely would come back to try other dishes.
Took up the all you can eat tacos Groupon deal for $23 pp and was so pleasantly with the variety of tacos on the menu!! The Groupon didn’t have any time limit which was great. My favourite flavours were the fish tacos, the beef one and the bulgogi pork! The spicy pulled chicken had a weird texture and there were other tacos that were actually mor spicy. Great atmosphere and the restaurant got busy slowly. Would visit again but only on taco Tuesdays!!
Delicious tacos, for $3 on Tuesday, it is an absolutely steal! The tacos come out as quickly as you can eat them. They are saucy (Also juicy!) and packed with flavours. You can’t go wrong with any of the tacos. The margaritas are also $14.
Food and service was great and fast. I went in a big group and couldn’t get enough of the fish tacos so I highly recommend it. The cocktails they had were amazing as well.
A bit late to post, but the best tacos I’ve ever had! The bulgogi beef taco and fish taco are AMAZING. Haven’t found a fish taco that is comparable. Looking forward to the day that they reopen
Arguably the best way to spend Taco Tuesday in the CBD. They've got a selection of tacos for everyone's taste and they're only $3 on Tuesday! They're a good size, and the flavour combos all work incredibly well. I'd highly suggest the bulgogi beef of you're stuck on what to choose.
I'd suggest getting there as soon as you can (we got there at 12 on the dot) because it fills up super fast. The staff were fantastic and our orders came out in good time considering how busy they were.
Popped in for the express lunch and it was so great. Perfect amount of food and LOADED with flavour. You can tell everything has been thought out and prepared fresh, no store bought tacos here thank F. The margarita line up is next level and I cannot wait to get in for dinner.
Are you hungry and want a bunch of flavours to tackle your mouth harder than those dudes playing NRL tackle each other?! Contrabando is a place I highly recommend!!
Taking well known Mexican dishes and flavours and adding a very nice modern twist this place has so many options for you to indulge in. I highly recommend getting the corn (as seen in the third picture) - with a mild spice, delicious cheese, I have never eaten a corn based dish that was so delicious. Service was very quick (though we did arrive right as they opened at 5pm) and they seemed a little over staffed at the time. The staff were really friendly and welcoming and happy to give suggestions!
They have a margarita of the month, we had blueberry, which we found very nice and complimenting the rich Mexican flavours.
The atmosphere was pumping (I can imagine when it is full of more people) with a mix of pop and indie songs playing!
Only thing I would say is the fonts used in the menu - especially the subtitles (as in the photo) can be a bit hard to read. And it can be a little expensive, but the food is quality.
I bought the tacos from Groupon, the tacos are great, I love it!!! The staffs are nice, pretty and helpful, but I think they need more staffs to make it optimal on the busy days. The one let down are the delay between the tacos to the next tacos, I hope I can get it served faster, but in the flipside you always get fresh hot taco from the kitchen. My favourite are the beef and fish one, but I can say the other tacos also great. Finish it with beverages they serve here and it will be perfect. Got them four stars for their booking schedule on Groupon and lack of staffs, other aspects are five stars.
Best tasting Tacos in town!
Came here for taco Tuesday. Tacos were perfectly priced at $3 each. We each had one of each taco. The service was decent. Staff were busy rushing about but still friendly and smiling.
My new favourite taco-Tuesday spot.
