    Eaten here a few times. Always friendly. Meals are reliably delicious. A large meal for the price too, I always struggle to finish it.

    Having occasion to go out for a celebratory dinner, the hubby and I headed to Hombre at the Mango…read moreHill Marketplace because I had seen their Instagram and wanted to sample their fare. Their tagline is "Mexican Street Food". Much like GYG, the ordering system entails building your meal from an array of choices. I was impressed by the five or so types of filling and variety of salsas on offer. The prices are as to be expected - about $12 for a large enchilada, plus add-ons. We ended up spending $50 on meals, drinks and a side. It seems to be a pretty popular place, we waited at least 10-15mins for our order and people were going in and out with takeaways. The wait gave us a chance to admire the Mexican Hipster decor anyway. Our meals were great - my chipotle chicken was shredded and stuffed into an enchilada with black beans then smothered in salsa, sour cream & guac. My husband's chilli con care soft tacos looked fab and he described the habanero chilli salsa as "burny good". His nose was running by the end so must have been hot enough for his taste! They're licensed too, with the requisite frozen margaritas spinning in their dispensers for your enjoyment. I noted they also take pride in their tequila menu, and even do a Shot Plate of you want to sample some different types of Jose Cuervo. We'll be back, and will probably have a drink next time!

    Hombre is a nice change of pace from the myriad of other "Mexican" places that have popped up…read more They now include a Breakfast menu which they didn't have when we first came here ages ago, and they have more than Just burritos, nachos and enchiladas! You can get Acai bowls, burgers, hot dogs, fries (the clean and dirty variety), and Smoothies and Milkshakes galore. The food is always full of flavour and I was really impressed with my Dragon Fruit Bowl (pitaya) blended with acai, banana, apple & strawberries topped with granola & seasonal fruits. It was pretty tasty. I also love that they have non-hot salsa to have, I love the mango and avocado when I have a chipotle chicken burrito. Average lunch is about $40 for 2 people. All in all its a good spot to go to and I love that its away from the Westfield shopping centre!

    Texan who grew up on TexMex and authentic Mexican food here...Going to give honest review of what I…read moretry today. I have been disappointed with Aussie Mex so far, but these place feels a little more legit than the other Mex I tried in the Gold Coast and should be better than Guzzies. I was quickly escorted off to my table and provided still water to drink. The ambiance of this place definitely reminds me of many places I've been in both Mexico and Texas. So far, so good. I ordered a Suprema Margarita to drink with Chile con queso as the appetizer. The margarita (on the rocks) came in a margarita glass, so doing good so far (the other place served it in a martini glass). Very tasty and perfectly prepared. Doing great Pepe's! The chili con queso came and was served with chips, as expected. Although the texture of the queso was more like sour cream than actual queso dip should be, the taste was decent. I ate plenty of it, so the weird fluffy texture didn't phase me too much. This can be better. Note to the cooks: try to look up a copycat recipe for Torchys Tacos queso - that stuff is epic. Fajitas came out sizzling. Smelling good, with a big plate of stuff to use to prepare some tacos. The beef was seasoned well, although not a typical fajita taste to me, was good and almost had some spicy heat to it, almost. The four tortillas, or wraps as y'all call them here, weren't warm or served in a stay warm container, be were folded into fours. They were much larger than I expected, as well. You can tell these weren't made in house, but tasted like just good ole fashioned flour tortillas out of a bag. The guacamole was very good. I was skeptical since the menu said it had pistachios, but good job. The pico de gallo, needed some umph. More lemon/lime juice (not sure if any was in there), a chili pepper, and more cilantro (coriander). The salsa verde was the star. Reminded me of my own. I need more of this. The cheese was perfect and actually more shredded cheese than I'm used to having, so that was a pleasant surprise. In closing, if you're in Brisbane and either missing Mexican food, like I was, or want to try something new, I'd give this spot a shot. Pretty good job, with obvious differences that may just be ingredient availability or regional palette differences. The last question is WHY ISN'T CHICKEN ENCHILADAS VERDES on the menu?!? You have that amazing green sauce, show it off! This would be probably a 4 star review back home in Texas, but it for sure deserves more than that here in Australia. 5 stars, baaaaabyyyyy.

This is definitely one of the closest to authentic Mexican Restaurants you will find in Australia - trust me I have tried VERY many. All of the food comes out fresh and deliciously seasoned. The el lote (corn) was fantastic in flavor! The fajitas also were wonderful. They have a huge selection of items to choose from including drinks. Highly recommend giving them a try! It was definitely worth the drive up from the Gold Coast.
