Mexi-canz — Restaurant in Iskandar Puteri

Went for Mexican food but we ordered a mix of North Indian and Mexican food. We found out the restaurant has a mixed menu.

Quesadilla was flavourful and loaded with olives and cheese. The pull was legit. It was so good we wolfed it down and we only managed to get a half eaten photo of it. Althought there were only 3 pieces, they were rich portions. We were expecting more portions because of the price point.

Our favourite was their chicken tikka masala and garlic butter naans. Chicken was so tender we thought it to be fish fillets and the peppers and thick gravy complemented each other. The naan had a generous topping and was fluffy yet crispy thin.

The chocolate ice blended was too thick for my liking but my partner liked it.

We ordered add on mexican rice, chicken soup and chilli soup for RM 5 (which got us curious) but I just realised now as I was typing my review that we we not served this.

Their salsa condiment was rather strange. It tasted more like an Asian ginger chilli paste than a diced tomato salsa condiment we are used to. Maybe this is another style of making salsa?

The loaded french fries was a portion fit for 2-3 and they had a nice dust of chilli powder though it was not overpowering. I would suggest maybe more paprika /chilli dust to suit the local palate?

Price wise, it is definitely not cheap because each dish is between RM 20-30. But you would expect similar price range from other restaurants of this quality.

Other dishes that caught our eyes were their fajitas and rogan josh which we plan on trying next time.

We liked their taste and although did not order much Mexican food to give a solid review for now, I can easily vouch for their Indian/Pakistani food here. It was rich and flavourful.

Thanks to the waiters for being so mindful. He even offered me drinks upon realising I did not order any for myself. I was just too...

Very nice dinner experience here. Owner and staffs were attentive, helpful and hospitable. Since we're not used to Mexican food, the staff helped explained which dish is nice and consist of what.

We really loved the taco dish as our appetizer, the taste is on point, and the condiment (which has cilantro in it) tasted sooo good. The casadillas, and chicken soup with tortilla were all tasty and splendid. Not an expert on Mexican food, but good food is, well, good food. Our casadillas was ordered with mexican rice and chilli as sides. The chili tasted awesome, but the mexican rice is so-so. Personally, I would order the chili dish separately next time to get bigger portion, it was that good. The mexican rice, I would skip.

As for the cajun chipotle pasta, tasted great but I personally preferred a bit more cajun spices and salt. The heat level is on the upper level, so those who like spicy food, this is for you.

There are kid menus too, so we ordered mac and cheese with chicken fingers. The chicken fingers were too spicy for my kids (they have zero tolerant to heat unfortunately), but a blessing, because they were really juicy and flavourful, us parents gladly finished them all off. I think cajun spice was used.

Beverages that we ordered; avocado and mango smoothies were great. Very pleasantly surprised the drinks are not packed with sweetener. So we got to let our kids enjoyed the fruit smoothies guilt-free.

Overall, very satisfied with the food and service. Price is in the middle range but totally worth it for the authentic Mexican food experience. All the best and keep up the good work for the...

Been trying to come here, but everytime I visit, even tho the sign says open, the place looks closed with the lights off and nobody there. Today I took a chance and shouted "Hello?" And someone came out and turned on the lights and a/c. 😅 haha.... oh well. The menu seems to be largely Indian... even tho they advertised as a Tex-Mex restaurant. I ordered a steak quesadilla, as that was what I came for... I was craving some Mexican food. The staff were very friendly. Food took a bit long to arrive... and when it did, it did not look like a quesadilla at all and more like a burrito. Haha. But actually the taste is not bad. Everything is nicely presented. The sauces and condiments taste really good actually. It came with a side of rice and fried potatoes too. The steak unfortunately was very tough and overdone... so perhaps this dish is better with chicken, as I see it is a cooking issue. They do try quite hard I think, the waiter was very attentive and made sure I had everything I needed. Perhaps worth giving...
