    Esteban - Grilled prawns taco.

    Super cool place that qualifies as a hidden gem as it's tucked down a little alley way. Inside,…read morethey have an upstairs dining rrom and downstairs a sweet bar and speakeasy vibe. Loved it. They did seat us under a staircase and it was annoying hearing the heavy footsteps stomping up and down throughout dinner service. The food was very good to stellar! As others have mentioned, the Tacos are King here. Tartare Tacos are amazing, and we loved the Salmon Civiche and the carnitas tacos, as well. Flathead Civiche was delicious, Brussels Sprouts were super tasty, and we also enjoyed the twice cooked Pork Belly. Not so good was the Pato Ahumado. The mole was really tasty but not enough, and the breast was really tough and fatty, plus no proper cutlery provided. Really disappointing, as we couldn't eat or enjoy it and it was like we just threw $72 away. While I did appreciate their coursing, we did wait for long periods between. Cocktails were good, as was a glass of wine, but pours are very light. Recommended, for sure. Avoid the duck.

    The food at Esteban was incredible!! They had tons of options to choose from and the environment…read moresuper unique, moody, and cool. The service was great and everyone was super friendly. The tacos were amazing!! The chips and dip were also very good and had a nice balance of flavor. Was something unique that I had not tried before. Everything tasted high quality with a large depth of flavor. Would highly recommend!

    First Guzman y Gomez I've ever had in the world was right this location. And I wasn't impressed…read more Then this franchise arrived in Japan and changed my opinion after having their gorgeous burrito. And I accidentally came across this location again. And I gave i another try. I don't even remember what I had last time but this "spicy pulled pork burrito" was... gorgeous! I don't know what to call that substance.. Maybe itus?(The Chappelle Show, anyone?) That mildly addictive and super satisfying flavor can be known as "umami"? Anyways, it was full of it. I envy people who work near here for having this place as their lunch option. Should I consider a career change?

    I've never worked for a more unorganized and disrespectful restaurant in my life. This place knew…read morefor MONTHS they were going bankrupt in America and still continued to overwork everybody, understaff us, stress us out, and waste our time instead of being honest with their employees. We all worked hard through busy nights like Cinco de Mayo, picked up extra shifts, dealt with the chaos, and stayed loyal just to get fired all in one day with no warning, no notice, no appreciation... nothing. All the corporate people came in smiling in our faces, acting like everything was fine while knowing what was really going on behind the scenes. Meanwhile employees were the ones dealing with the stress, confusion, and constant disorganization every single shift. People rearranged their schedules, missed time with family, and depended on these jobs just to be tossed aside in one conversation. What makes it even worse is how many people they constantly hired just to turn around and fire them days, weeks, or months later. Some people left other jobs for this place thinking they had stability, just to get completely blindsided. I honestly feel bad for everybody affected because for a lot of people, this was their only source of income. It also always felt like they only wanted Hispanic workers there so the restaurant could look more "authentic" for the image they were trying to sell, which honestly makes this whole situation feel even worse now. Then they send out fake "if you need anything contact us" messages like they actually cared about the people who kept that place running. And the fact this fake "Mexican" restaurant couldn't even show basic respect to its workers on the way out says everything. Would not recommend eating here in Australia or Japan.
