Mini Margs! - Edit
The food looked so good, my friend and I couldn’t decide what to have so we did the banquet and it didn’t disappoint. Plenty of food and very delicious. We loved that you could have a half size margarita- a ‘Mini Marg’ - which meant we could try two different flavours. We had the watermelon and the smoky pineapple, so yum.

Quality Mexican Cuisine - Edit
Great food, great vibe. The papas were the stand out dish - I could have eaten nothing but them the whole night. Make sure you get them! Tacos were delicious too. Staff were very friendly. All round, a wonderful venue!

Yum things! - Edit
Went here for dinner after an afternoon wandering around southbank, we went for the Banquette and it was all delicious food! I will definitely be back for more tacos. The margaritas were also so good - I had the seasonal (spicy strawberry) and the charred pineapple (with a kick!)
Read moreOnly thing I would change is getting more tacos next time rather than duplicate plates of the sharers!
Although the chips with salsa rojo were to die for, so they’d be on the table always.

Outstanding great Mexican food - Edit
We loved it. Highly recommend pescado ceviche which tastes truly „real“. We also loved the oyster mushroom skewers which were flamed in order to have nice roasting flavors. Wines and drinks also great, wide beer selection spanning from local to Mexican choices. Go there!

Incred pescado tacos - Edit
Starters were good, tacos were delicious! We got 2 starters to share and had 2 tacos each which was more than enough. Very fast service.

Really great food - Edit
We just rocked up at 8pm on a Thursday and they managed to squeeze us in so, lesson learned, booking essential here. And it is soon obvious why. Great food, flavours, textures and combos.
Read moreOyster mushrooms on skewers was our absolute fave dish but all were excellent.
Pros: Food flavours and textures, Interesting combos, Love coriander

Nice tacos - Edit
We booked for dinner, seems advisable as it was busy. It is a good place to go to for sharing food. We ordered the potatoes to share. They were nicely cooked, a little salty for me but a nice sauce. I ordered the jalapeño margarita mocktail which was nice.
Read moreFor my main I ordered the pescado tacos. You get two. The “fish” piece in it had a great flavour and I liked the soft taco shell.
I would have tried the corn but I was quite full.
Nice setting and busy!

They change menu every month, visited in august 2023 and all the food we had was absolutely spot on! The cocktails were amazing too, you can actually taste a decent amount of alcohol! Loved the jalapeño margarita!

Love this place. Second time there and hit the mark again. So tasty!
Read moreThe ‘feed me’ menu is excellent. Definitely leave El Planta El Fulla. Tasty potatoes, Smokey corn, bbq flavoured cauliflower, mushroom skewers on soft tacos and pulled jackfruit soft tacos. Soft tacos made on-site.

The best vegan restaurant in Brisbane - Edit
Every dish on the menu is exceptional. The flavours and textures are just amazing. I've taken many non-vegan friends here and they've loved it.

Flavoursome - Edit
Everything was so flavoursome! For two of us, we had two starters and two flavours of tacos and left feeling satisfied. The service was attentive and our food was delivered really quick and nicely spaced out so it didn’t all arrive at once, which allowed us to savour each dish. And there is the added bonus that everything is vegan! Highly recommended.
Read morePros: Fully vegan menu, Attentive service
