We had dinner here last month for my b'day and really enjoyed. The price is a bit expensive but worth with the size of the meal. The staff are friendly, funny, and helpful. Maybe need more attention on the ambience. Overall we loved it and the best mexican resto we ever tried. No wonder this rest is always packed.

Authentic food, excellent quality and reasonble prices. The service is excellent and very friendly. The only downside is that the restaurant is always busy and very noisy. Great cocktails and imported beer selection. I will be back!

Thought the food was good authentico Mexican. Bit expensive for a Mexican restaurant/bar but this is Bulimba! Staff all helpful and attentive, good wait times on a busy night. Would definitely recommend for a casual night out.

Well I guess once you have a few under your belt which is mostly all this place is good for then you are oblivious to it's sub standard food, service and hefty bill.

Firstly the flag on the table system which is completely bizarre just doesn't seem to work and I found myself waiting for long periods of time for anything that resembled service. The meals that our party ordered were bland, small and not at all freshly made. Disappointed all round. Will Not be back.

This is about the freshest and tastiest Mexican food you get. The fajitas are fantastic and addictive. Have been going here for a long time and have never yet been disappointed although you have to book everynight of the week or you won't get in. Can be a bit crowded but service is always great. Love the sangria. Its not Aria but its fun and tasty and great value.

This is the best Mexican in town. I have never been disappointed by either the food or the service. Everything is fresh and absolutely delicious. Highly recommend.

This place is my new favourite. The guacamole and salsa is so fresh and the sangria is lovely. This place exceeded my expectations. The staff are lovely!

Obviously this place is great for drinks but thats where it stops. The food at Montezuma's or Pepe's is soooo much better and the staff at this joint just have no idea, even with their bizarre flag concept it still took ages to get served or more drinks. Dry bland food and a terribly long wait left me one unhappy customer, will not be back.

I always have a great time at La Quinta and love to recommend to other people. The food is great and the portion sizes huge. The staff have always been friendly and the cocktails are great! Things can be a little slow and very noisy as this popular restaurant is usually crowded - remember to book ahead!

La Quinta is great if you are after a fun night out. The place is decorated to reflect the traditional Mexican theme, and music and an upbeat atmosphere to match. We went mid-week and had quick, friendly and efficient service. The food is not incredible, don't expect the most amazing culinary experience of your life. But worth a look in. If you're looking for a fun night out with friends then I can recommend this place. Reasonably priced cocktails too!
