Amigo Mexican Restaurant — Restaurant in Victoria

Decided to take the missus out for dinner tonight, she was craving Mexican and I thought this place would be great.

Boy was I wrong.

The staff were amazing and the drinks were great but the prices are overtop for the quality and quantity of food you receive.

I ordered the regular nachos ($19 plus meat), Payed an extra $4 for meat which is a sham, I also ordered beef, not chicken. And was told that the beef is mince, not brisket. I did not get $4 worth of meat. (Image below) My nachos were piled high so I had to remove my guacamole, sour cream and salsa to access any of the meat because it was under bunch of chips.

My partner ordered 2 soft beef tacos ($14) that arrived on a plate that burned her hands because it was left on a hot plate or something. Her tacos arrived wet and soggy, fully inedible.

We ordered a guacamole dip as an entree and it actually wasn’t that bad but the serving size was ridiculously average. (15$)

The drinks were amazing I ordered two lemon lime and bitters, and a caramel shake.

Asked for service to talk to the chef and was told that the tacos were fine even though they came out looking like a used diaper and smelled terrible. I was discounted 4$ for the meat but that was all I got.

My partner spent some time in the toilet because she felt unwell after eating what she received

We arrived hungry, left hungry, and went to hungry jacks.

I spent about 80$ on dinner at this place and I honestly wouldn’t...

Had a B'day party there with 22 people. Upon arrival staff would greet you with a smile, set you up at a table and start taking orders for drinks then meals. While taking orders staff were helpful, during meal service, the staff were a little bit scarce, but as to be expected with a large group. After meals were served, staff were often unseen again for any requests for follow-up drink orders. From all accounts the Steaks were cooked perfectly & were extremely delicious although the sauce was a let down & the Burritos all came back to another high point. No Ciders. All Spirits are served via a 30ml shot in a glass and with your selected pre-mix, No cans or stubbies. Beers do come in a stubby. The Fish Bowl Margareitas were also a bit of a let down, they were priced accordingly but lacking in alcohol. To the final process of the night, the Bill. This was an extremely slow process with a group, each order needed to be added into the system individually from a notepad, finding every meal name & any additions on the menu. So of course with 22 people the time it took to depart was almost 1hr. I think the management need to consider pdt notebooks or pda's for staff to take orders on to reduce the waiting time to...

Got a shock when we saw our bill tonight, realised on the way out there was a very small sign saying no half priced margaritas anymore (waitresses didn’t bother to mention this either). What a shame. Been coming here at least once a month on a Friday night for quite some time because of the margaritas but new owner has taken this great promotion away.

We won’t be returning until (if) it returns.

Edit: you say “we will never do half priced margaritas forever” yet your small sign says temporarily. So which is it?

Good luck going out of business.

*edit Heard these guys are struggling, am I surprised? No. Looks like you gave up a winning...
