3 of us had a most disappointing meal here last night. Concrete benches and equally uncomfortable seats would have been fine with good food and service, but sadly that wasn't to be.The place was barely half full at 8pm, but the server warned us that everyone had turned up at the same time, but they were doing the best they could.Fair enuf, I guess, but there were only 3 ppl working there, 2 in the kitchen the server (who was actually pretty cool and why I've given 3 stars).Order took ages to take, and drinks to ages to turn up.Then there's their reimagined Mexican food using Aussie produce. I mean ... that really should be an amazing opportunity, but the chef has decided to take bizarre things and try and make the place Michelin star worthy.Beef tongue tacos, seriously? Who in their right mind would want that?The octopus tacos was a 3 inch long tentacle that had the consistency and toughness of inch thick rope.The pork quesadilla was reasonable, I guess, albeit in what appeared to be a shop bought tortilla.The tomato salad was tiny, half the size of the salad the table of 3 were served, whom we shared jokes with over how average everything was.The "Wagyu" steak had some authentic Mexican flavour to it, but there was nothing Wagyu about it with zero marbling of the steak, which was, to be fair, quite well cooked. But still dripping blood, which just indicated to a meat monkey like myself that they really didn't know how to cook a steak properly.And $80 for a set menu with limited options?Overall, this was my worst Mexican food experience pretty much ever, and I've had food poising from street food in Mexico City and also eaten a lot of Taco Bell
