Lucky Lupitas reviews
77The food here was absolutely amazing! Got the burramumdi, chicken and pulled lamb tacos, and they were heavenly! The pulled chicken burrito was delicious as well. 10000% recommend for people visiting the area. Loveeeeeddd it. Definitely coming back
My wife and I ordered Margaritas and chicken nachos. The nachos and chicken were cold when it came out and instead of shredded cheese, a liquid type of cheese sauce was served. We sent the nachos back and opting just for guacamole nachos instead. The next serve came out with BBQ sauce all over it. The poorest excuse for Mexican food I’ve ever been served. We returned the nachos. How can you get nachos wrong twice? The Margaritas tasted like lolly water. Horrible experience.
The food is amazing but the kitchen is so slow. It was not busy and our food was ready 50 min after we ordered.
Worst meal ever
Ordered pork ribs and got 6 bones rice and chips?
Indians running a Mexican restaurant
Stick to Indian cuisine
Ordered 6 tacos, while the food was good, the waiter refused to charge us with their 3 tacos deal x 2 on a technicality by saying we didn’t clarify we wanted the 3 tacos deal when we ordered. Have been at lucky lupitas multiple and this has never been an issue. Quite disappointing about today’s service. Anyone who wants this deal, make sure you mention it up front.
The food, margaritas and staff were extremely excellent. This place is a ripper and we were shard table to deal with.
I dont usually leave reviews but i felt the need to with this one. I had high expectations but was left utterly underwhelmed with the poor food and bad service. We were informed that the chef was being creative and decided to add ingredients that were not listed on the menu that I had allergies to.excessive amounts of chilli was found in absolutely everything when it wasn't meant to be there. Almost everything we ordered came out wrong.
Really poor quality Mexican food. I wouldn’t even call it Mexican. The food was over sauced (too rich), tasted like Indian, hardly any fresh salsa (3 green leaves and chopped tomato). Each meal came with 5 dry corn chips. The kids meal was not kid friendly (or dairy free which we asked for twice). We did come on a public holiday but that’s no excuse for poor food.
Enchiladas were soggy.
Be warned. No idea how they are “in the top 14 best restaurants”
Great food and vibe. The customer service is on top. If you are looking for maxican, I will recommend this place. The pork rice bowl was soo damn good.
Good menu selection. Food was cooked well and tasty.
Service was friendly and efficient. Pleasant decor inside the restaurant.
I dined in last week as a vegan party of one. I was so impressed with the people serving me, they helped me find a meal I was happy with. Served me in a timely manner! I loved the vibe of the restaurant too! Looked so cool! When I saw my meal I knew I had made an excellent choice! I ordered the eggplant fajitas. Such a generous serve. To say they were delicious is an understatement. The absolute best vegan Mexican I have ever eaten - I am a bit of a foodie. I can’t wait to return with my husband so we can enjoy the plant based banquet together. Without any doubt I will be returning! This is now one of my favourite restaurants! Even dining alone I felt so welcome + comfortable. I can’t wait to try more of the menu in the future! Thankyou so much Lucky Lupitas! Tam
Hands down the best Mexican you’re going to find in Adelaide. And if it ate that good after making the 15 minute journey in an Uber then you know it’s gonna be even more killer at the restaurant!
First visit. Very warm, welcoming and friendly staff.prompt n excellent service.delicious Mexican cuisine.above all best Pina colada ever.
If I could give zero stars I would. This place once upon a time was incredible, now, complete utter garbage. I've never been more disappointed in my life. The customers next to us seemed to have the same opinion. Food had zero flavour, the squid tasted and smelled like rotting fish. The pork taco looked like it had been sitting out for at least 8 months. Revolting. I have no idea what happened to this place, but in the span of 4 years it has gone to complete trash. Very sad to say I will never be coming back. Waste of my time and money. I would rather eat a garbage tip.
Food was not authentic, we ordered 3 dishes Which tasted same. Felt like a Mexican chain food as everything had different sauces on it. To be honest Guzman gomez is better.
Could have got better food in the same price.
We enjoyed the food greatly and the service was equally as nice. Great place to go, try it once.
Was really disappointing: (
We were waiting for someone to come take our order for way too long. We neatly piled our menus to show we were ready and still nothing from the staff that walked past our table several times. I eventually went up to the counter just to double check how orders were taken and even after that we were still waiting a bit.
When ordering, I asked if the chicken (in an enchilada) could be swapped with a vegetarian alternative, or even just not included at all, and was simply told no and showed the vegetarian tacos I could have instead. I would have appreciated an explanation of some kind, as I don't really understand why the chefs couldn't make a normal enchilada and just not include meat.
The (somewhat unwanted) tacos were quite small, and very spicy even though there was no indication of spice on the menu. I left the restaurant still hungry and unsatisfied. The staff were polite enough, but I didn't feel they were very accommodating or understanding.
I would be more sympathetic if it was busy at the time - I get the struggles of hospitality - but, unfortunately, I can't justify my experience or going back.
Absolutely beautiful Mexican food with lovely and helpful staff. We ordered half the menu as they were able to customise almost everything to meet tricky dietary requirements. I can’t eat garlic or onion these days so haven’t had Mexican in years! Am really happy to have found this restaurant.
Wednesdays are $5 tacos so me and my partner tried all of them. Really nice variety of flavours! Staff is friendly and place is cozy to sit in. I will be coming back
I had the fish taco, prawn and cauliflower tacos through uber eats. Travelled great, super fast and the food tasted amazing!
