1. Mejico, Sydney

Located on Pitt Street, Mejico brings the regional flavours and techniques from all over Mexico City to the Yucatan Peninsula.

We also recommend the barramundi with pineapple salsa and margarita cheesecake that transports you back to Mexico!

5. Bad Hombres, Surry Hills & Bondi

You might find it surprising if we say Bad Hombres serves vegan Mexican dishes. That’s not unexpected as meat is a staple part of the Mexican diet. But head over to this spot and experience the tapas-style snacks and shared plates on the menu created for vegans. We recommend the Baja jackfruit and miso eggplant tacos that go well with their amazing wine list.

8. The Two Wolves: Cantina, Sydney

The hard-to-miss poster on the corner of Broadway and City Road with two wolves facing each other has made this place familiar to most of us. But do you know, this restaurant has staff who are volunteers and all the money collected here goes to charity. The restaurant feels like a student bar from the 90s with yellow and green walls. Head over to enjoy the nostalgia with guacamole, tacos and soured cream and salsa. To get $5 food, stop by during happy hours between 5-7 pm.
