If you walk down Rundle Mall too quickly, you’ll miss it! United Latino Cocina (ULC) is one of those places you know about because you specifically went looking for it. When I first went there, all I could see were a bunch of tables and chairs in an alleyway. Run by the same chef as Lucky…

Lucky Lupitas
Lucky Lupitas is amazingly popular, even on a weeknight! While the neighbouring restaurants barely had any customers, there were people lining up to get a seat at this place. A tip for those who come here when it’s busy; go inside and put your name down for the waiting list. There are benches outside that…
Fiesta Yiros
Fiesta Yiros are a take away outlet in the Adelaide Central Plaza food court. They serve types of food; yiros, spuds, pides, AB and Mexican. For those who aren’t from Adelaide, an AB is yiros meat and hot chips smothered in hot chili, garlic and tomato sauce. AB’s are relatively new to their menu as…
Burp
Burp is one of the first Mexican places to open up in Adelaide. This made Burp a bit of a novelty. These days, Burp has competitors and you’ll find a Mexican place in most food courts. They’ve also simplified their menu since I last visited and their offerings are now more in line with Zambrero….
La Cantina Co
Mexican food from a food truck? How good could it possibly be? With very little expectation, I was more than pleasantly surprised when I had a beef burrito from La Cantina. The burrito was amazing, and definitely better than some of the store competitors that are around. The beef was soft, tender and beautifully flavoured….
Zambrero – Rundle St
Most of the products at Zambrero are all wrapped up and don’t make good photos. The only thing that looked presentable was the Beef Bowl, so that’s what I ordered. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable about what was on offer. I liked how one person handled the food and another person handled the money….
Mexican & Kebab House
The Mexican and Kebab House is a uniquely named eatery located in the City Cross food court. This eatery offers a range of tacos, burritos, kebabs and pides. Today, I ordered their House Special Turkish Pide. The bread was freshly baked, and nice and fluffy. The minced beef filling was tasty but there wasn’t enough…
Zapata’s
Zapata’s has to be one of the best Mexican restaurants in Adelaide if not the best! It’s definitely better than the poor cousin down the road. The restaurant is traditionally decorated, the service is exceptional, the staff are friendly and inviting, and the food is authentic. We came here with a group of 25 and…
Montezuma’s – Melbourne St
I’ve been to Montezuma’s several times over the years and the menu hasn’t changed. The menu offers a range of dishes, and various combinations of those dishes. While the food is not authentic, it is reasonably cheap. The restaurant has a Aztec theme about it with all the Mexican paraphernalia hanging off the walls. The…
