Owners grew up on the border of Mexico for nearly 25 years before bringing the fresh Baja Style Mexican cuisine to Burleigh Heads. Which in 2015 was named Queensland’s #1 Mexican Restaurant by the Restaurant & Catering Association.

Welcome to the #1 LARGEST plate of nachos in Australia! This delicious mountain of goodness has reached national fame being featured in magazines & blogs nationwide!
“Massive burritos” as they are described on our menu. These babies come in at nearly 1 kg! Packed with flavours only found South of the border.
Our tacos are inspired directly from the beach suburbs in Southern California and Mexico! We use homemade tortillas, with a perfect blend of paired salsas.

Having moved from California recently we've been on a mission to find good Mexican food. We finally found it! Prices reasonable, not cheap, but good value. Food closest to authentic Mexican that we've found in Australia. Will be back soon.

Easily the best Mexican joint on the coast and will travel half an hour to eat there. Very impressed.

Friendly staff, prompt service, reasonably priced & we loved watching the car-crash channel on the tv in the corner. A unique, fun & delicious experience!
