I had a taco and enchilada combo that was nice enough and by itself would have warranted a 3 but, at twenty of dollars, you have to consider popping by the local supermarket and getting done old el paso instead.

In my never ending search for authentic mexican food in Australia, my wife & I decided to give C.M…read more a try. Being Mexican American I have very high expectations in the so called "mexican dishes" I've come across while visiting and unfortunately Oz has let me down once again. I ordered the nachos & my wife ordered the chicken burrito with rice/beans. My guacamole was brown & the nachos were dry. I mentioned to the waitress that my guac was brown & she explained that due to the mixing of salsa & black pepper, it turns color. I knew that was bull crap because no matter the method you prepare it, it should always be green & vibrant. My wife's burrito was boring & lacked the essentials to constitute it as a burrito (I.e. beans, sour cream, pico de gallo, guac etc). Well after $71 later we walked out of there very disappointed. I still have faith though that I will find a decent mexican restaurant.

I'm a big fan of Montezumas! When I was younger we would visit the Burleigh restaurant and Im…read morepretty sure this one is also owned by them so they no what there doing. It's a good idea to book a table as this Montes gets booked up. They also provide takeaway which I often go for. The only downside with takeaway is that any menu item that comes with a salad, they make you pay for a separate side salad as well as they don't provide salad with there meals!?! They need to jump on the internet and fix up there takeaway menu. The staff seem nice. I've only dined in once and it took 40 minutes for them just to take our order which was very disappointing. They do all the favourites like enchiladas, burritos, tacos, taquitos, tostadas, nachos and more! A lot of people say these establishments are proper Mexican but this is the Mexican I know and love and it's pretty good!

Had a cocktail (strawberry daiquiri) was tasty, and started with the Aztec fries which were the bomb! I had the fajita, they were a bit stingy on the toppings. Ran out of lettuce by my third taco, and no pico de gallo which I find odd. I had the BBQ option and it tasted like the meat was cooked in plain BBQ sauce, which was sickly sweet and a bit overwhelming. Might try the other flavour next time, or I might try the tacos instead. My husband had the chicken burrito which he said was good. Staff were attentive, and they have several vegan options including dessert which is fantastic! I didn't get to try the vegan dessert as I was too full, but next time. Will go again but probably won't get the fajita again. Extensive menu, so lots of options. Parking was a bit of an issue but we drove around the carpark until we found one. I don't know why other Yelp reviewers were really unhappy here, it definitely wasn't bad, they could just improve a little.

Protip: Do not order too much food!…read more That's not necessarily a bad thing. At Gringos we were too spoilt for choice - everything on the menu looked amazing, and sure enough the food was equally impressive. The servings were massive! We ordered quite a few dishes and could not finish some because the servings were just too generous. Which is a good thing in a way because you know you are getting your bang for buck. Also the cocktails are lovely and bountiful. Some places do cocktails in a tiny martini glass, but at Gringos they serve it up in a larger glass so you know you'll have a good time.

As are the burritos and their $7 margarita. Try calling ahead about an hour before they close as they occassionally run deals like $1.95 tacos.

A lunch for both of us was $50. We ordered nachos, chili con corne, a shoft shell chicken taco & 2 sodas.. The tortilla wasn't heaten, tasted like it was just straight out of the packet, the chicken was dry and not seasoned, the chili was soupy/watery with no flavour, very bland and the nachos were salty and watery... all the food tasted like it was made straight from the microwave.... sadly dissapointed.
