The food is bland, small and overpriced. Do not eat here if you enjoy spicy food. The service is slow and incompetent.

Great place for a beer and a snack as the ambience is great but have never had a worse margarita. Had to return it for a beer. The quesadilla was the pick of the meals and the salsa was very good. Not sure what they are using instead of avocado and sour cream but it is tasteless and looks terrible. Staff are very friendly but let down by plastic cutlery and poor food.

I can't recommend this place more highly for weekend brunch, I can't believe there weren't more people! Great huevos rancheros (one of my favourites) and the service is always really good.

The atmosphere is quite nice once you're nestled into one of the chunky wooden tables, almost doesn't seem like you're in the Cross! I couldn't get thru my whole meal, was rather massive, but the fresh salsa, huge pile of guacamole, along with the mass of bacon and potato sitting under my eggs, were really tasty.

The only thing I would say is it's a little weird eating such nice food on plastic plates with plastic utensils. Also, their hot sauces are not only hot, but tasty as well, I think I may have to go back and buy a bottle or two.

This place is awesome. Great food at a great price with great friendly service. With your average main costing about $10, you can't go wrong. The food taste very fresh and far better than your average mexican!

These guys are the bomb when it comes to Mexican. Ask for Bill the owner. His jokes are corny but it is great service. The food is fresh and there are a tonne of options. I love their range of Mexican beers and Tequilas. We will be back that is for sure.

Great food and atmosphere. Loved the friendly service. Bill the owner went out of his way to make sure we were well taken care of. The selection of beers and tequilas were impressive. The burritos and tacos were fantastic and fresh. Outstanding playlist for the music! We'll be back- a lot!

Tomatillo used to be my favourite place for a quick and easy dinner (I live in Potts Point). However, the last week or so have seen some devastating changes: the usual manager seems to have gone; the food has gone from significantly better to inedible; and the services has gone from excellent to awful.

By way of background, I live in Potts Point and have eaten here (in fact, had takeaway from here) just about weekly since they opened. The food has always been excellent, and the service a pleasure. Tomatillo's food and service kept me faithful. However, over the last week or so, something seems to have happened. The service is now appalling, the food (when you want hot chilli sauce) has gone from very hot but still tasty to completely inedible.

I don't know where the friendly chap with the moustache has gone, or what has happened to the manager.
