Booked a table at 7:45. Had to wait around for 15 min before being seated out the back in the shopping mall. We got the half price meals for the half price night...the food wasn't that bad for the price, but a taco shell with a handful of lettuce thrown in with a sprinkling of cheese is not my idea... More

Cantina nights offer excellent value for money, but due to its popularity, be prepared for a noisy night.. More

We enjoy the great food and love the combo's on a Wednesday night! We usually always book to guarantee ourselves a table and go early so we don't have to wait to long for our meal. But regardless it's worth the weight! Delicious every time! More

While this place is always packed, I appreciate how the staff always try and accommodate us. But they are so busy that sometimes they don't bring drinks or even cutlery despite asking multiple times. But the food is always satisfying and the serves are not small! More

I love this place... But if you have ever had real Mexican (from the US or Mexico itself) you will know this is it's own version of Mexican... Having said that, it's awesome food! The free corn chips and salsa are a bit light on (tiny bowl) but better than paying $8 like you do at another Mexican place in... More

We had a group dinner at Muchos for a friends birthday recently. Monday and Wednesday nights they have great specials that make dining out very affordable. People with Entertainment cards also receive 25% off. The restaurant is BYO wine which I would reccomend as their wine selection is minimal. As a local I have noticed the customer service decline over... More

I have been going to Mucho's for at least 20yrs, and I think the fact that a restaurant has been around this long is a testament to just how good the food is. Garth and his team (and yes, at least one of those waitresses have been there since I was a teenager) have created a fabulously authentic cantina style... More

I booked on a Satruday night for a table of 10. There were a couple of issues: 1. When I booked I was told that someone would ring me on the day to confirm numbers. When I was contacted on the day I was told that if one of the group didn't come there would be a $10.00 per person... More
