the prickly cactus

holy hell!greatfood, massive portions. the con carne is amazing and freaking huge!

food:
great if you like mexican with absolutely no heat or spices to it. elected for the mild thinking i wouldn't need to ramp it up... it needed ramping up... for any flavour of mexican.

rice side dish offered next to no flavour and had the consistency of microwave rice.
cactus wrap was not worth the $ 22 was more like something you would get from a food court mexican. (salsa's would be an improvement)

dessert:
went for the churros and were served 3 with canned whipped cream and store bought chocolate and caramel sauce. not worth $10 by a long shot.

lots of little kids and screaming babies. definitely a family friendly place. but notgreatto be seated near despite the later than little kid dining time.

maybe my girlfriend and i (from melbourne) are used to good mexican, but this was just average to sub average and overpriced for what we got.

seriously well run mexican restaurant with the typicalgreatlaunceston staff friendliness. loved the place and will come when next in town

i have to say this is one of the noisiest restaurants i have ever eaten in. we were upstairs and there were a number of large groups do that would be my only real complaint. the food itself wasgreatand good servings reasonably priced. good happy hour deals half price margaritas!

went there for dinner last night. the food was delicious! i had the sizzling fajitas and my partner had the ribs. my meal was great! my partner said the ribs weregreattoo - the meat was tender and almost fell off the bone. very tasty and friendly service. the meals were a big portion size and there was agreatatmosphere. we give it the thumbs up.
