Reviews of El Cupo Cantina
M. P.Beautiful South American food, very delicious. Lively music and atmosphere. Waiter was friendly and the young lady we originally spoke with. Think the man at the counter needs to work on understanding humor with customers. Other than that would recommend.
R. A. (.First time to eat here. Sooo goood. We love the churros. We just had a taste from my son's dessert, then decided to order some for takeaway. So crunchy outside but soft on inside.
T.Great restaurant. Good food and personal table service. Friendly and informative staff about dishes and drinks. Nice atmosphere. Lively. I’m not from NZ and used to being served at the table and staff being engaged and friendly in what they are doing. I generally found this lacking in NZ at restaurants and cafes. I come from hospitality in Africa managing hi-end luxury bush lodges. This restaurant gave the same experience to me that we give our guests in Africa. Personal, engaged, friendly service that makes it an experience you remember. I highly recommend this restaurant.
J. R.We’ve dined here twice recently - with both experiences being fabulous. Attentive and on-to-it waitstaff. Delicious, cold, well balanced cocktails. And hot, tasty food! Thank you! We will continue coming back. So good having this on the coast.
C. M.Food was amazing and drinks were superb. Best part was our server, who was incredible and attentive. Blown away to hear that he had only been on the job for a month. Well worth a visit if you're looking for a great experience!
G. R.We've been to El Cupo three times, and each time the staff at El Cupo are friendly and accommodating 😀 The food has been pretty great each time: we had the spicy wings, ceviche, various tortilla chips, kids' quesadillas and the churros (which are enormous)....the ONE exception was the beef torillas which contained virtually no beef 😕But overall I'd go again; well done!
R. A.Had a cocktail and a couple of starters on a lovely outdoor table yesterday afternoon. Everything was delicious and well priced and waitress was lovely. Will be back to try some other cocktails soon.
C. G.We had a delicious meal at El Cupo Cantina. The food was yummy and so fresh, the serving sizes were generous so we left with full, happy tummies! Our server was also really friendly and gave us some great recommendations to try. We would highly recommend!
M. G.Unfortunately the Margarita's were not great, and neither was the food. We ordered the 'chips' but it was not as expected at all, the dips were average and very expensive. They need to think about offering better bar snacks, and better dips. The trio of meat was ok, but again it was not as expected no flair unfortunately. The winner on the plate was the Chimichurri sauce. The staff however were delightful, and this is why the rating is not very bad.
C. B.We had an amazing evening here. Great food, great drinks and great service:)
A. S.Absolutely fabulous service, cocktails and food delicious. Generous servings. Definitely will be back, thank you.
B. S.Really yummy and decent sized food! Their desserts are amazing too. Will definitely go back.
T. C.A coffee place that focuses on the important part of delivering great coffee 😁
I've tried their house blend and a variety of single source coffees, and there were all excellent, friendly service too 😁
They have a variety of coffee implements and related apparatus too.
J. R.Good food, ambiance and service, what more do you need.
A. B.Well done on everything!! Great menu( shared the BBQ platter) it was delicious, fantastic service and finished with amazing Churro's, which I've never had...'died and gone to heaven!!' Will be back for my birthday celebration.
H. S.Master Chefs in action. Good food isn't just about the ingredients but also when you know there is really a masterpiece happening in the kitchen. I love steak and I've never tasted a sirloin like this before. Everything I ordered was new to me and loved and will be coming back for more. I was looking for a good meal, and next I'll definitely come and try the coffee.
J. R.Excellent quality, delicious food and cocktails. Super slow service on an evening at 50% capacity.
S. R.Dinner for 5 and all was EXCELLENT! I never knew the shop when it was a Coffee Shop.
Now it is a Restaurant with delicious food and really good coffee. If you love South American food you gonna love these guys. The Staff were very attentive and also EXCELLENT!
Meat lovers paradise.
E. B.Great margaritas! Lovely Vibe and friendly staff were great with my exuberant friends! I can't thank you all enough especially the ponytail girl who makes the margaritas and the friendly lad who brings our meals 😁🥂
M. P.I absolutely love margaritas and the classic version here was delish! The pao de queijo were a deliciously cheesy start and the fish tostada's and pastel de papa were delicious and satisfying mains. Staff were amazing, dining here with a large group was a seamless experience. Definitely recommend. Hope to return again soon.
J. P.This is not your average coffee shop, the house blends are awesome and any one of them would be a great choice. I was especially impressed with the variety of milk options! Macadamia milk is next level good. The ease of ordering on the regular app makes for a speedy pick up on the morning commute too. Awesome stand out decor and super friendly staff, even at 6am 😊 great work, keep it up
K. D.Still 5 stars. Edit review as business is now a restaurant - and what a great place! You must come try the food. Everything we ordered was amazing. Big meals and also small bites. This place would be great for lunches, diners, or snacks with drinks. Staff were very attentive. Special mention for the kids' menus - no boring fried hotdogs and sad mac n' cheese here. Instead kids also get to experience lovely South American cuisine along with the grown ups. Only thing we didn't try tonight was the coffee but given this was originally a cafe I am confident this is still done well and we will be back to confirm
A. L.Always a great meal, and even better desserts and cocktails! 🍸🍹
M.Very cool atmosphere, fantastic food and awesome service 👌🤙🏻

L. B.Lovely boutique coffee stop, you'll forget you're on the coast for awhile! We had one of the single origin coffee's and it was amazing; fresh, creamy and tasty. Very friendly staff and wonderful atmosphere, definitely will return to sample some more coffees !
N. P. (.Their coffee is awesome (the Costa Rica was my favourite) and tasted exactly as described. Their food is also very good.
M. C.Absolutely amazing and I love how it’s different than the average restaurant on the peninsula. The margaritas are delicious and the meats or amazing. Highly recommend!
L. C.We went for lunch on Sunday and was served by a friendly young girl unfortunately the Restuarant was not very good . I ordered a Strawberry Margarita which I assumed would be pink from from the Strawberry but it was yellow which I queried but was assured it was Strawberry The food was very expensive and little of it
