Awesome, great food, great service, just beware of the wall of sauces. You may need to keep the toliet paper in the freezer the next day. Went there with the boys so yes we had to out do each other with with the hottest sauces. Food was awesome.

Well we had been craving some Mexican food, and there are not many options in Sydney. Break down: Food was OK, but if you want a side of chips and salsa $10.00, really. We got the steak fajitas, decent meat, decent flavor but at $25.00 I could have literally made it at home and fed 6 people.
Ambience: Nice and cozy. Service: Ok I am going to be generous here because our waitress 'forgot' that I did not want salt on my margarita. Value: WTF $75.00 for 2 fajitas and 2 margaritas. Horribly overpriced, but as the place was packed I guess they can charge whatever they want.
The portions were tiny, the steak fajita consisted of sliced steak, 1 piece of capsicum, and about a 1/5 of a white onion. Wow, Not. Personally, the only time I would ever go back is for their Tues $3 tacos $3 tequilas. Overall there is much better value on Glebe Point Rd.

I was craving Mexican food so we were lucky to ring up on the night and get a table for two. I ordered the tomatillo and avocado salsa, however, the salsa came out and it was definitely not what I ordered (it was a red salsa). I asked the waitress if, perhaps, she brought the wrong one and she replied that it was right, the ingredients are blended, so two green ingredients become red when blended?!?
The salsa was still good, but not what I wanted. My husband had the pork enchiladas which were very good, I made the mistake (after reading reviews below) of ordering tamales that could be used to build a house, cooked to brick state. Very disappointing as now my Mexican craving continues. I should have gotten the enchiladas! (and the bill came and the salsa WAS wrong, she gave us the Charred tomato and ancho chile salsa. I hate when someone makes a mistake and tries to pass it off!).

Never been here before, but based on previous reviews I was tempted. Wow, what a great place! Food is fantastic, we had nacho chips and dips for starters then I had chicken flying fajitas and my partner had a chimichanga (?) and both were amazing! My partner a bit (lot) fussy when it comes to eating out - yesterday I caught him recommending this place to some friends!
The servings were huge, staff friendly but not too over the top, love their outfits!
I'm not an expert in Mexican cuisine, but I know good food when I eat it!!

We have been here several times and never had a problem until last night. Rang and made a booking and got a table down the back in the courtyard. Having learned from experience we decided to pass on entrees and instead just have mains and coffee/dessert.
All was going well until they cleared our mains plates then we were totally ignored or forgotten. We sat there for half an hour waiting for the waitress to ask if we would like dessert, coffee, the bill etc. while she attended to the other tables around us. Needless to say we got up, paid our bill at the front counter and left.

After hearing a rave review from my sister and browsing the reviews on the site decided to travel into Flying Fajita Sistas and can not speak highly enough of their food, service and fabulous margaritas! The pineapple served with the fajitas was a nice addition and the dips/corn chips were some of the best I've tried. Definitely worth a visit!

Went on a Saturday night before a show at the Seymour Centre. When we arrived at 6 pm there was only one table there, the current messy state of Glebe Point Road may have had something to do with that? The complimentary spicy nut nibbles were pleasant, as were the corn (and black bean? What were these black chips made out of?) chips with guacamole, sour cream and salsa.
Unfortunately, there was a bit of a wait before our pulled pork tamales came out, I have a feeling they may have forgotten about them because they were awfully dry (but made better by slathering them with the accompanying sauces). I think I liked the rice and the corn accompaniments better than the tamale itself! Finished off the night with a very sweet, cinammony hot chocolate (taste it before you add sugar!) by which time the place was about half full and starting to sound a bit more lively. A good place to try if you're around the Glebe area and not put off by roadworks!

Two of us dined here last night after reading the reviews. It's not bad and a step up from your usual cheesy Tex-Mex place. We had starters for two, the pepian dip was new to me and interesting, followed by two fajitas. Extremely filling but somehow I found the room for a chocolate banana chimichanga dessert. Total $80 for two including tips (we brought our own wine) and acceptable for a celebratory night out. Nice friendly service. The construction fence outside is not their fault, and I'm sure everyone will be glad when it goes away.
I am by no means a Mexican cuisine expert, but I have read of dishes that I have never seen in this country so I look forward to the day when we can have that kind of variety. In the meantime, FFS is about as good as it gets in Sydney at the moment I think.

This is my fave Mexican place in Sydney! The flavours are fresh and not bogged down with cheese like other so-called Mexican diners. We shared the Chorizo Huaraches along with the trio of pepian, queso fundido and frijoles with home made corn chips to start. The Huaraches dish was bursting with flavour and a squeeze of lemon juice added a great zing. The dips were moreish and we just loved the homemade corn chips.
Next we had the Flying Fajitas and ordered a beef and chicken combo. The meat was so tender and juicy in a light marinade with a yummy charcoal taste. Loved the great variety of condiments / accompaniments including chopped pineapple - yum! There is a huge selection of hot, and I mean hot, sauces to choose from – they provide little saucers so you can go up to the shelves to pick and choose whatever sauce/s and how much you like to add to your food.
The sangria was great and next time I’ll have to try the margaritas – they proved to be very popular with other diners. This place has a great buzz to it with the service being friendly and quick...I highly recommend.

After hearing all the rave and rant about this place I decided to check it out for myself. Unfortunately its reputation was just a myth. Me and my girlfriend ordered the $3 taco's as it was a Tuesday night, they came out quick enough but were bland and lacked the authentic Mexican spice, taco's from a service station at 2 in the morning had more flavour! . Additionally the nacho's we ordered did not meet expectations.
Service was great and laid back, the Mexican dresses were a nice touch. Other than that I enjoyed being seated facing a wall staring into a wall as opposed to staring in a construction fence was the highlight of the evening.
