Pipa's Mexican Byron Bay
Mexican restaurant
👍👍 Seriously delicious tacos! When a talented French chef brings casual Mexican dinner to the next level. What a nice spot for a quick bite in a relaxed set up, far away from the crowd in town. Definitely one of Byron’s best hidden gems, out of the usual touristy circus. Bonus: BYO alcohol will keep th...

👍 You know when you get a thin taco and nothing is inside? This place is the opposite. Full of meat and cheese. All you need is 3 plus the soup and corn with a drink lol. But my first time i had to try it all. Best dish was the corn 10.10 My second time here wasn't as great as the first. I ordere...

Corner Cartel
Mexican restaurant
🫤 I don't agree with the other ratings...I have been utterly underwhelmed. The drinks are small and expensive. The mojito tasted nothing like lime and overly sugary. We came for a snack and had the nachos that were average. We were the only one here at 6pm on a Friday night. On positive note, service...

😐 It was Sunday lunch but the resto wasn’t too full. Only a couple of tables were packed. We were asked to sit down anywhere we wanted and the waiter came quickly after to hand out the menu. After we ordered, we waited for another 10-15 minutes for food to arrive. They could’ve employed more staffing...
