Great little spot tucked away in a plaza. The food was pretty dang good for Mexican food 7,500 mile…read moreaway from Mexico but the service here definitely goes that extra mile (km) here to make you feel right at home. The service is a 11/10 and I can't recommend more, especially if you're a solo traveler looking to make good conversation. Will definitely be back.

TINY BUT TASTY!!!! You must go!! Get there BEFORE they open…read moreto assure you get in. Literally 5 small tables inside & 4 maybe 5 2 tips out on the Corso walkway. We ordered a couple things for a full sampling. The brisket tostada, serves one and possibly the BEST TOSTADA I have EVER eaten ~ GOD IT WAS GOOD!! The tortilla chips salsa & Guac was OUTTA SITE!!!! Cerviche fresh & tasty, salmon tacos equally DELISH as was the chicken taco. Only slight observation ~ all good could have been hotter and I don't mean spicy ~ all the spice was PERFECT, didn't blow my head off!! The dessert is OK, real sweet with Carmel, brown sugar & cinnamon ~ OH! FABULOUS margaritas too. The regular margarita is tart I ordered the coconut/lime and it was SPECTACULAR!

来 Manly 海边玩的时候发现了这家 Mex & Co Manly，真的比预期好很多，所以真心写下自己的感受…read more 本来以为外国墨西哥餐会吃不惯，结果味道很不错，牛油果酱很新鲜，配上薯片很完美，份量也比很多网红店实在。我们还点了海鲜的Fajita和猪肋排的Nachos，真的很不错，很实在的用料. Margarita 也很好喝，造型很出片，朋友都说值得再来。 有中国人店员服务态度特别热情，建议华人都可以过来试试，对小朋友也很友好，整体氛围很放松，很适合一家人或者朋友聚餐。位置离 Manly Beach 很近，吃完还能去海边散步。

Mex and Co is located in an amazing spot across from Manley Beach. Indeed, the outdoor dining gives…read moreeveryone an excellent view of the water, perfect for people watching, and ideal when you've been out in the sun a bit too long. Unfortunately, the Mexican food doesn't deliver the same excellence. Our burrito and chicken enchiladas lacked seasoning. Our guacamole needed more acid and was missing jalapeños. Our tortilla chips were out of a bag, which is surprisingly when it's so easy to make fresh tortilla chips if you have a deep fryer (which they most certainly used for their fish and chips menu). All of our food would have been more suited for a cruise ship than Sydney's discerning foodies. On a good note, service was excellent, friendly, and attentive...for this and the location, I give them three stars.

Love Taco's? Go elsewhere!…read more This so called 'restaurant' has been open for less than a week, and based on our groups experience, they may not be open for much longer! Here's a run down of our dismal night! We arrived and found a table; it took about 20 minutes before our entree (drinks, chips and dips) order was taken, and it took 30 minutes before these arrived! Worried our main meals would suffer the same fate (read: delay), we ordered immediately... However, we had to follow up on the order after about 30 minutes and received no response from the waitress! After a further 15 minutes, the first of the orders arrived (only 1 of the party); another 2 of our party got their order 10 minutes later! So breaking it down - We gave up and walked out after an hour and a half, as only half our of mains had arrived; where in most cases the taco's were cold and the 'soft' tortillas were stale around the edges, like they had been ready for a while! After voicing our disappointment with the Manager; we advised we were happy to pay for our drinks and entrees (read: what we felt was reasonable). We received a blunt response, an air of arrogance and absolutely no form of an apology, before receiving a demand that we pay for EVERYTHING that was delivered to the table and even those plates that were on the pass. Working in retail and retail management for over 10 years, I'm aware there are certain ways of dealing with customers; however this was the WORST customer service experience I have EVER had! I would also have to say this is the WORST food experience EVER (excluding receiving food poisoning); usually you might have bad food, bad customer service or bad ambience; but in this case we got a full house.. If you're looking for a bite to eat in Manly, choose another place from the extensive list of options. You can get better food and service for your money elsewhere.

DO NOT GO TO THIS RESTAURANT. Last night, our waitress screwed up our drink order. When we…read morecorrected her politely, she brought us more drinks and everything was fine. Then when we went to go pay, we were charged for all of the drinks, even the ones we did not drink because they were not the right order. The guy at the register said we were a group just getting drunk. There were four of us (two couples) and we had 3 drinks in 3 hours. I do not feel that is unreasonable for a Friday summer night. They refused to take the drinks off the meal because they said we ordered in correctly. I guess they've never heard of "the customer is always right." Even though the guy running the till said we were a group, we were not allowed to order the group menu because we needed to have 6 people. This was not stated anywhere on the menu. The waitress was rude when we tried to order the group menu and gave us attitude as she explained it to us like we were children. The man we had to deal with made it clear he wasn't the manager and that we could write about our experience however we wanted to in a review. I can now see that this isn't the first bad review they've gotten! Ground Zero Cafe should distance themselves from this establishment or they're going to get tarnished with the same brush. The service was crap (obviously), the food was overpriced and the tacos were okay at best. I guess I shouldn't be surprised that we had a bad experience. My husband went here last summer and witnessed the manager telling another customer that she could "f&*% off" because she complained about getting her food after her fellow diners had finished their meals. Go to Chica Bonita or Manly Mexican if you want to have a good night. Avoid We Love Tacos & Tequila at all cost.

Awesome guacamole…read more They have kangaroo fajitas and crocodile burritos. Not very authentic, I know... but at the same time I appreciate the unique twist. If you find that strange, no worries - you can still get all the more standard options. I liked the steak fajitas. It's a touch pricey, but not outrageous. I'd place it in my Top 3 Mexican Restaurants in Sydney... which is a very prestigious and sought-after (imaginary) honor.

There are a few Mexican restaurants in Manly and whilst this one has the beachside location it does…read morenot get across the line on food quality or value. The burritos use to be better however now they seem a bit stodgy and have too much rice. Expensive too, without any sides. The fajitas are great and come out steaming hot. There are a few unusual items on the menu as well e.g. crocodile burrito. They also do nice cocktails. I have been here at least 6 times. I think the place was better when it first opened but the wait staff are pleasant. There was one occasion where there was a large bug in our water jug which concerned me in terms of cleanliness. The waiter was apathetic about it when we complained, rather than showing some interest. For lunch time I'd visit but for dinner you are better off at Manly Mexican on Belgrave St. GREAT food with many sides and a nice selection of wine and cocktails. Unfortunately Manly Mexican isn't open for lunch. Tips: 1. Fajitas are better value than the burritos 2. Check water jug for bugs ;) 3. You can easily rack up a large bill if you aren't careful 4. It doesn't look like it but they do takeaway. I wouldn't recommend though because it is the same price as if you eat in the restaurant.

Out on a family dinner, so we got a range of views. The marguerites went down well. The Sangria was…read morea bit different, possibly not what I was used to (it's been a while). Fajitas were excellent, as well the Burritos. Too much corn was the response from the Taco selector. Fair enough, I don't really like corn either. Complimentary Salsa and chips were great. Service was very good, it was a busy night too.

This place is one of the best in Manly in terms of food quality and value for money…read more There is tasty complimentary salsa and chips when you arrive so you have something to snack on whilst you are deciding what you would like. The staff are friendly and never make you feel rushed. My favourite dish to order is a burrito and it comes with sides of rice, black beans and pink cabbage. For drinks I prefer one of their margaritas (with lots of salt and lime) or the sav blanc off the menu. I've never gotten to dessert because I have been so satisfied with the main. The restaurant is relatively small (only 40 pax) and casually decorated. It can get a little loud because of the small space and is usually full. You NEED to book or you will likely miss out...there are a lot of walk ins...or 'attempted' walk ins. Only downsides other than the size is that you must walk through the kitchen to get to the bathroom and they don't have a website. I pretty much think all restaurants should have a site these days but I will overlook any cons about this place because: - the food is great and fairly priced - the staff are nice and genuine - the place has a very Manly feeling to it...nice and casual Tips: - Book book book book BOOK! - Try a margarita - Save room in your stomach before you come or you will be struggling to finish - Don't go to Mexico via Manly (on Manly beachfront) over this place. It may look prettier but it's not even in the same league as this place.

How can you screw up nachos? El Camino that's how…read more No really. Came here looking for nachos and a margarita and it was a sever disappointment. Staff didn't get to our tables for 5 mins. Lackluster service and shit food. Thank god there was hot sauce on the table. So so so sad. What a waste. The chips were cardboard cut - straight out of a factory. Flavorless. Margarita was premade sugar water. I hate leaving reviews like this but it's hard to find goodness when the staff of 3 - wander around like we're the inconvenience and their service is - not service. If we walked out of here and didn't pay, they'd not even notice - although there are only 4 tables of people (including me and my guest) Aside from the vibrant decor - save yourself some money and head to Aldi downstairs - make your own nachos and margaritas. Upon leaving the person who appeared to be the manager asked us what was wrong, upon explaining how disappointed we were he didn't care. Processed the payment and we left - to never return. This place is absolute trash. If the Staff there are the owners then hey - do what you want but if You're the owner and weren't there on April 5 2019 - your business isn't great and it's being run by incompetent staff.

Okay. I'm from California so I might have a slight bias towards Mexican food, but this was the…read moreworst meal I've had in years. The margaritas were okay, I ordered the froze strawberry and it was edible, let's leave it at that. Now onto the chips and salsa. NO flavor. The chips were so overcooked and thick that the crumbs went everywhere. The salsa was basically ketchup and the queso.... tasted like a hint of cheese and mustard with 2/3 water. Now onto the main entree. The bean and rice burrito. Corn??? On a burrito? Wack. Sweet potato fries?! C'mon I know this is a Tex-Mex restaurant but even then those restaurants aren't as Americanized as this. The tortilla tasted slightly worse than a frozen organic burrito from Safeway with CORN? and some random queso that probably was there to make up for the absolute lack of flavor. Cardboard tastes better and I haven't even had it. And for the finale. There's no hot sauce in this restaurant, what logic is that for a MEXICAN restaurant? Not tapatio, cholula, or some basic Tabasco??? Wild. I'd recommend this place for an experience, but it's too crap for a cultural experience. I mean what do you expect for a Mexican restaurant 7,000 miles from Mexico?

Food is great.

Crispy and earthy - mixed green salad with guacamole: I asked them to go light on salt given that the salad in Australia tends to be salty. The salad was fresh and great for sharing with cucumber, carrot, and mixed greens. I also had a glass of dry Riesling from eden valley - very drinkable with some structure. The service is fantastic. The owner is a German asian who looks like that she is from Hawaii and super friendly, with authentic Australian accent. One instantly relaxed here after a day at the beach.

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.
