Been here a couple times. Foods good and quick. Came on a monday night around 8pm. Host wasnโt the nicest. Must of caught a bad day. Heaps of tables available and was offered table out near entry. Asked politely to go else where. Attitude wasnโt the best anyway we were seated and the European waitress was lovely! Bit awkward especially being host of the place.
We visited Hail Mary in Burleigh Heads with our daughters, genuinely excited to try something new. Unfortunately, the experience was a letdown from the start. We ordered drinks first, then the jalapeรฑo poppers and crispy squid to share before moving on to some tacos. The squid arrived first oily, soggy, and almost inedibleโdefinitely not crispy as described. We mentioned it to the staff, and while they did remove it from the bill (which we appreciated), it didnโt change the overall disappointment. The tacos that followed didnโt redeem the experience. We tried the fried chicken, brisket, chipotle chicken, crispy pork, snapper and mango, squid and steak and chimichuri. Most of them tasted the same and felt like they were just thrown together without much interest or balance though the snapper and fried chicken was crispy. The steak and chimichurri taco was the only one that had a bit of character, but even then, not enough to make us feel like the meal was worth it. The pork taco in particular seemed heavy, no seasoning, a big piece of meat that just didnโt work in the small taco. The atmosphere and idea behind the menu are great, but the execution, cooking quality, and overall consistency really missed the mark for us. The staff was nice and accommodating hence the 3 star. This was our last meal for our week and it was mediocre. For the price and the location, we expected much better. Sadly, we wonโt be returning.
Charlie our server was helpful and kind with a friendly smile, super ontop of everything water jug was replaced asap. Food was delish left super full all for a good price. atmosphere is great, however music could be a little better. regardless will be coming back!
Shared a meal amongst a small group of friends. They were fast and efficient in the delivery of all services. The food was tasty. The nachos as a share plate is a great idea. The chilli and lime squid was some of the best Iโve had! Would recommend a visit and would definitely go back. However if you donโt like hovering wait staff, this is not the place for you! They were efficient and constantly coming around.
A wonderful birthday with friends. Got the $50 Thursday deal with tacos and nachos and margaritas. The best Mexican Iโve been to in ages!!! Fantastic staff and atmosphere too.
