The fajitas with chicken dish is quite nice. We had the buffalo wings for an entree, but frankly I would recommend people give that one a miss. I'm not sure what kind of sauce they use on it (had an almost vinegary taste) but I didn't think it was that nice. And what is it with these restaurants that highlight a specific cuisine but can't have the music of that particular culture in the background? It's a Mexican restaurant, so they should at least have latin american playing in the background if not mexican songs. At Pocos we were treated to a mix of country western and some spanish. Hello? I don't know, but for me a restaurant is as much about the ambience as the food.

Approximate cost: $17-$32

Nice casual establishment which has all the tacky tex mex atmosphere but the food is just not good. It is not quite exactly traditional Mexican but it doesn't do the australian Mexican numbers well either. The enchiladas were soggy and bland. The accompanying beans had zero flavour. My friends had a couple of margaritas and they couldn't finish them as they were too sour. Only positive is that it is not too expensive but you could make it better and cheaper at home

Approximate cost: $21

Simply Mexican resturant that is easy on the budget and a refreshing change for all the Thai resturants at the spot. Good margaritas.

Simple restaurant that serves up great Mexican food and reasonable prices. Good place to drop into for a quick meal before or after the movies.

Approximate cost: $10

The atnmosphere in this restaurant is great, very fun and mexican-themed. I love that they give you free corn chips and salsa when you sit down :) The food is good and generous portions, however a bit too expensive for mexican. I don't think that one bean burrito should be $20!

Approximate cost: $20

My friends and I have been going to this restaurant for over 10 years and it has been our favourite mexican restaurant........not any more. The original owners have sold the business and the new owners have kept the old menus but the food is nothing like it used to be. My friend had his usual san antone (chilli con carne) and the meat was just a bolognaise sauce with not a bean in sight. His meal was cold so complained and all they did was microwave it for a minute. Our wrap a dilla used to be a tasty crepe but now it is a fat tasteless brick.

Approximate cost: $20
