La Tortilleria

The place had a QR menu. I always love this option. We could see all the pics of the dishes we were ordering and a bit of atheir description. We tried tamales for the first time here. Mine were amazing! Their saucy nachos were great too. And omg their flan del dia! It was sooo yum! We'll defo be revisiting.

@latortilleriaau📍Kensington 🌮 Tacos (Lamb, Fish, Potato and Vegan Chorizo, Beef, Pork) 🥑 Corn Chips, Guacamole, Salsa 🍤 Aguachile de Camarones 🍮 Flan La Tortelleria is an authentic Mexican street food restaurant located in Melbourne’s inner-west suburb of Kensington. Their award winning corn tortillas are made the traditional way from scratch, just like in the villages of Mexico and supply to many top restaurants around Australia. 🇲🇽 To order you must use their online QR system (If you’re wanting to claim Melbourne Money, make sure you order everything in one go!) which is very efficient. We started with some Spicy Margaritas which were nice but could’ve been spicier. 🌶 The Guac and Salsa were probably the best I’ve had, they have definitely perfected the recipe here. Give me a bottle of that Salsa to go! The Prawn Salad was something I haven’t tried before and would easily reorder every time. 🍤 We were left underwhelmed with the remaining dishes. We tried almost every taco on the menu and every one lacked flavour in the meat. The ones I would recommend are the Fish and the Potato and Vegan Chorizo Tacos. The Flan was sadly overcooked and curdled at the bottom, but the flavour was there. The vibe here is upbeat and yet casual. You will almost always find a line out the door, especially on Taco Tuesdays when it is walk in only (Expect around a 20 minute wait)! I would come back to try some of their other main options. ⭐️ 3/5 (Good)

La torilleria honestly is one of my favourite Mexican restaurants in town. Located in Kensington/Flemington, this place will capture anyone passing by with its colourful and vibrant exterior. As you can see, even the plates and bowls were beautifully coloured 💖 Every dish we ordered was so full of flavour- their salads were all so refreshing yet different from one another. My favourite though would have to be the tacos - loved their use of corn tortillas, which were so amazing they did not flake or break. Another big star for their amazing salsas - no boring bits, every bite was fireworks.
