Review The Mexican - Yamba

This place was highly recommended by the locals. We ordered crazy chicken starters which were jam packed with flavour. The Mango Margarita was delightful! I was worried that the mango flavour wouldn’t be strong enough but it definitely was. For main, we shared the pork ribs. They were fall of the bone tender and I was too excited to eat it, I actually took a photo after I’d started haha We were incorrectly charged originally and as the POS system was broken they were unable to provide a tax receipt. However, upon returning to the restaurant to clarify prices, they recalculated our meal and refunded the difference. I would definitely come back to eat here and would recommend it to friends.

Great vibe.. Very friendly Staff with great table service 👍 Very popular and were lucky to get a table as a walk in before 6pm. Plan ahead and book to make sure you get a spot. Massive variety of food and drinks. Cocktails made fast and Jugs available. Great food a must if visiting or local with reasonable prices.. Enjoy 😉

On first impressions this place seems to be loud and set for a younger crowd, which we were initially concerned about as we had my parents with us, but once inside you realise it has an extremely relaxed and friendly atmosphere and the location (opposite the backpackers) adds to a broad mix of diners which ultimately means ‘everybody is welcome!’ The food is delicious - truly authentic Mexican. We had the Sizzling Fajitas (mine was Prawn) and the flavours were outstanding. You can tell that they use the best produce and take pride in their food. After meeting the owners - a young couple with so much energy and passion for not only their restaurant but life itself! - we now understand where this all feeds down from! All up we had an awesome night! Keep up the great work guys - we will definitely be back!

Have u ever seen nachos like this?! 😍😍 This was hands down the best Mexican food I’ve ever had, and I’ve travelled the world! Food is amazing, portions are huge, great value for money and the staff is outstanding! Will be coming down from the GC again, just to have some Mexican food haha

Went in tonight for my husbands birthday and we sat at the bar. What great service, great vibes, yummy cocktails and AMAZING food! I would 100% recommend popping in for a meal and a drink while you are in town you won’t be disappointed. Thank you to the fantastic owners Cookie and Alyssa we look forward to coming back.

Great food and atmosphere. Friendly staff (and locals). Will definitely.go here again when travelling past Yamba.

Lovely staff, brought us in without a booking which was great. Food was terrible. I’ve never had such overpriced Mexican food, which was unauthentic to say the least. No flavour in the food, what looked like baked beans on our fajitas and costed a fortune. Would love to see a real Mexican here.

Great vibe, super friendly and helpful staff, delicious food, marvellous margaritas, great kids menu, and homemade chilli sauce to die for! We were glad we called ahead to book as we got the last table on a Tuesday. Deservedly popular!
