Reviews of Amigos Alexandra

R.

Nice place, definitely worth a visit. Food was superb and the waiting staff awesome. Plenty of vegetarian options. The margarita was spot on!

f.

Awesome experience- would have given them 6 stars if it was an option 😁. Even though it was pretty full they found us a seat and had our drinks sorted within a minutes. The food was fantastic (my favourite were the fish taco and the duck taco) and the staff were attentive. We’ll be back!

B.

Excellent service and great food. The best calamari in the world! Great Quesadillas, Rib-eye steak and Churros, we enjoyed it thoroughly. Unfortunately we had to pass on Margaritas, as we had to hit the road for a long drive, but it's highly recommended place to go to when in Alexandra.

T.

Decent mexican food. It can be better. Very pricey as well. Staff are very friendly. No complaints for service, however food itself doesn't work for me for some reason. I have tried many different dishes here, to give it another chance, but so far only burrito has been good enough, but that was too pricey ($18, so more expensive than a foot long Sub) anyway. All in all, I think you may enjoy this if you're a massive fan of Mexican cuisine, otherwise for a trial run you may be left unimpressed.

J.

Omg the best, frozen margarita mix tasty, meals great

R.

I love the calamari here! Always wanted to try the ribs but didn't in case they were messy... THEY AREN'T! Finally tried them the other night. Dad and I shared them and they were great! Fresh food. Good flavours! The spicy xhips are good. Dad doesn't like anything too spicy so the ribs and calamari are perfect for him! The chicken salad is also amazing.

R.

We came here at 3.30pm for lunch, and were relieved the kitchen was open and the staff were happy to have us. We had various tacos and nachos, which were fresh and tasty. There were a lot of vegetarian options which was a relief.

S.

Food was truly wonderful and the service is great, dealing with customer's without vaccine passed is not pleasant but they handled it very professionally

H.

Good Mexican food. 15min wait not wasn't too bad, $6 Sol beer. Nice waiter too

D.

Great service , loved the drinks and food. Had lunch there and then we went back for dinner.

D.

Tacos were delicious, the margaritas far too easy to drink, and very attentive table service.

R.

Great coffee and Tacos....service awesome...

M.

The food was truly amazing. Probably the best steak I've ever had to be honest. Service prompt and attentive and a fab selection of margaritas. So 5 stars. The only downside is the acoustics. The restaurant was pretty full and we were a table of 8 people. You couldn't properly hear the people sitting even across from you. In the summer you can move outside but the winter will be a challenge. Maybe some acoustic panels or something? Apart from that - top marks on the menu!

L.

Love it exactly the inhouse hot sauce I didn't find it spicy but the flavor is excellent

y.

Nice food and service, we enjoyed our lunch.

K.

Great Mexican restaurant with good atmosphere, great food, good deals and fab friendly staff. A definite go-to place in Alexandra (+ caters for vegan and other dietary requirements)

A.

Brilliant funky resturant in provincial NZ. Deserved to be as busy as it was on a Tuesday. If you are in Alexandra dont miss it

C.

Yum yum lunch .food very nice just like the place. I mean all of them..staff on to itdark curly hair just great .on it thanks

M.

Yummy food and colorful decorations inside :) Frozen margaritas are refreshing and tasty! Quick food service :)

K.

Always so eager to scoff my food I forget to take photos.... everything on menu is tasty.... love the margaritas ... staff are great ... real hospitality... Anna is amazing and deserves a drink 😊

W.

Great place to either pop in for a drink, something to snack on or a have a full meal.

K.

Enjoyed my tacos very much, and good service too, thanks Shannon :)

B.

The waitresses were very nice, the food was awesome and great atmosphere.

D.

Food was great but the restaurant was really cold. They desperately need an air curtain over their doors. We didn't hang around as it was too cold to stay. I think in the summertime this will be a nice restaurant.

L.

Beautiful cocktails, absolutely delightful food and lovely atmosphere! 10/10 would recommend

C.

I visited this restaurant with my friend for having a lunch. Soft tacos was very tasty and friendly staff was very nice.

k.

Good abidance, good service and taste of some dishes are nice but over all expansive. Ordered fries with Cajun and when we returned. Ordered second one and got fries which were double fried - too much oily.

T.

Delicious and great service. Love taco Tuesday.

W.

Very good food great staff and very popular

A.

Taco Tuesday is a must, 5 dollar tacos! I'd give the jackfruit taco a miss but everything else was extremely enjoyable. I'll definitely be making sure I've tried them all before I leave Alex.

P.

Very cool Mexican theme restaurant. I love Mexican food and it was a nice surprise to stumble into Amigo's here in Alexandra. The setup is very cool. Made me smile to see the sombreros on some of the tables as we walked in. Ordered some tacos, rice, beans and Sol's and we were set. The food is awesome. Really nice flavours and quick service. Wait staff were attentive and friendly too. Finished with a nice strong coffee. Awesome. Nice to find a restaurant with a difference and enjoy the fun and flavours that it inspires.

B.

This is one of the best Mexican restaurants we've been to in the world. We ate there twice in a five day stay and loved it. The food was exceptional quality and taste and the cocktails were amazing. I'll be dreaming of coconut margaritas for years to come and their Espresso Martini was unlike anything we've tried before. It was delicious. The staff were attentive and friendly as well.

E.

Always the best customer service. Prompt and friendly. The food is really delicious. All of the meals are tasty and well balanced but the stand outs are the mushroom and fish tacos. The wee chef is amazing and makes everything extra delicious and she never has a day where the food is sub-par, especially compared to the other amigos and even better than taco medic in qt. Definitely will be returning.

K.

enjoyed the night out, lively vibe, chicken nibbles very dissapointibg but quesadilles and tacos very satisfying. Lime desert and brownie yummy, the only thing that always annoys me is when waitresses clear dishes away when someone is still eating.

L.

Love this wee place. Very busy and staff where great as was the tapas.

M.

Soft tacos were filling and delicious. Highly recommend the chips and dip- they are amazing. We were greeted as soon as we got in the door and were well taken care of by Christopher throughout our meal. Awesome place, wish they were also in Dunedin!

L.

Lovely staff and atmosphere. Pulled pork and guacamole soft taco was divine.

S.

Great food and a wonderful dining experience. Easily catered for gluten and dairy free. Reasonably priced and a great location. Had a small mishap with an incorrect order of my meal but management quickly sorted it and apologized with a free dessert for my family! Great job guys, we'll definitely be back again next time we're in town.

J.

Lots of gluten-free options available (ask for the gluten free menu). Servers are friendly. You can choose to eat outside (and you can avail of sombreros for a fun way to stay sun-safe), or there's also lots of room indoors. We ordered 4 different tacos. We loved the flavours of the lamb and prawn option. One taco is good if you're quite a light eater, but I suggest at least 2 to 3 if you're quite hungry. Hopefully we'll get to try some mains next time.

j.

Enjoyable meal, lovely staff.

G.

Deliciously satisfying, Taco Tuesday was an added unexpected bonus, we didn't even notice the knives and forks until the tacos were completely demolished, great for adults and for kids. One of our children won't do spice but the chicken quesadilla has him coming back... YUM! (•‿•)◉‿◉(. ❛ ᴗ ❛.)

X.

I like the potato chips.

C.

Good service and bloody great burritos - Amigos is on the expensive side for sure, but is certainly worth it for the free home made hot sauces (be sure to ask for them)! We enjoyed our wine, burritos and a bit of a sit in out of the wind before retiring back to our tents whilst on our bike packing adventure along the Central Otago Rail Trail! Would recommend (PS. check your accommodation for a $10 dine-in discount voucher).

K.

Just one visit but very delicious 👌

H.

Had a delightful evening.... frozen margaritas were delicious

D.

The food was all amazing! Waiting over 2 hours for our food was not. I would skip the taco Tuesday's unless you want to hang out here for a loooong time.

G.

Fantstic tacos will go again before leaving this town.

l.

Love the atmosphere of this place. All the staff are friendly,helpful, happy and smiling. They all seem to have a good sense of humour. Was greeted very warmly by Chris when we arrived and we were able to pick our own table.

C.

We had an awesome night tonight! Our server Christopher was so attentive - he kept our drinks refreshed all night, always asking if we needed anything and the food order came out perfectly for a table of 13 people! Couldn’t fault a thing thanks to Christopher. Cheers Amigos!

A.

We had a great Saturday night, Great atmosphere and awesome food. Also the service is great.

D.

We had a great dinner here, fantastic service and food.

m.

I had an amazing time, very nice atmosphere, great tasty food, staff really nice and friendly and the barmen made me an amazing cocktail, I will definitely go back with more friends and I will highly recommend this place to all my friends..

E.

Delicious food. Amazing service and accommodated for our group of 36, with only a couple of days notice, during a very busy Christmas period.

M.

The food and service was amazing, I really enjoyed the "Plata Combinada", the various meats were so tasty and cooked to perfection. I did the "death wing challenge" (hot wings) and survived however I have a feeling the chefs went easy as they probably didn't want to kill any tourist. Lol.

S.

The food was very good. Cost was reasonable. Slightly noisy at the end when customer numbers increased. Will definitely return to sample the rest of the menu.

P.

Replacing the old post office, I was rapt to see perhaps the best restaurant in cromwell spread to my hometown Alexandra. Striking the perfect balance between the exotic spanish-mexican culture and being accessible to anyone. Excellent food and drinks, with a broad range of meals available - I especially recommend their nachos and quesadillas, though be aware these are not huge servings. Certain elements of the menu are somewhat lacking, for example the chicken wings and fries taste quite weak, but if you know what you want they offer fantastic food for very reasonable prices. Not many large tables for large groups, but perfect for couples or families on a night out, or even just for a drink after work.

D.

Great food! Love the atmosphere

T.

Awesome meals and fantastic service by staff. The cocktails were amazing. Loved the Decore. Wish we could visit more. Chris deserves a drink.

s.

P.

We had booked for xmas eve and a week prior mum found out they weren't going to open, no phone call or apology. Had a great time at Ashoka indian and spent our $500 there! Prior had come to Alex Amigos with friends and food was overpriced and we were rushed... Since redeemed at Easter 2019!

P.

Have had a lovely meal at Amigos tonight..we were greeted with a warm and friendly welcome by Skye who also explained the menu and gave us recommendations...all of us thoroughly enjoyed our meals and evening out . Thank you Skye ..we will certainly be back
