Quite busy and popular with young crowd. Bit loud but probably great for a meal pre a night out. Starters were delicious but mains weren’t quite at the same standard.
Frozen margaritas were delicious and would go again purely for these!

Definitely my favourite MexiCAN restaurant in Cape Town! The staff is amazing. They always make you feel like an old friend when you walk in, they are always friendly and no request is too much. The food is always of high standards, everything on the menu is good and the Margarita Jugs are a must when you're there. Stay a little later on a good night and the guests will start singing karaoke to the Manager's favourite hits. :-)

This is my go to place, to start off a great weekend. A must experience for those from out of town cause there is nothing better for me. The place is so vibey you sometimes can’t hear yourself, staff are always welcoming from the door to the kitchen.

Undoubtedly my favourite Tex-Mex restaurant in Cape Town. The food is always good and the staff are always on top of their game. The margarita jugs are a must-have and thee party starter on any given day AND their tequila menu is endless - I just can’t resist the gingerbread flavoured one. Their list of starters, nachos and quesadillas never disappoint. I go back for the enchiladas every time. Definitely a go-to for when you’re looking for a place to just relax and he wants to watch the game or somewhere to kickstart the night. This spot won’t disappoint.

When I’m in the mood for mexican food, only one place comes to mind, Fat Cactus! Their jug margaritas and side bar of nachos are a must!! The restaurant is always vibey and service always friendly. If you’re brave, try their list of interesting tequilas!
