Great range of dishes and flavours. As a team we dropped in for lunch at someone's suggestion - and going to be a permanent addition to our roster of fabulous places for a group to eat! The recommendations from the menu were great, we had a mix of small shared and taco flight plates that were all very happy with, the crispy fish, sunchoke and beef cheek tacos were a highlight as were the potatos and the hot sauce! And the food was quick out so we didn't feel rushed. Good drink selection too, though as returning to work, alas couldn't make use of that.

Been twice now and was very good both times. Highlights were the guacamole (yep, how can you make gauc worth a mention? Make it authentic, fresh and delicious with a home made chili sauce).
Fish taco a required choice.
Service really good.
And if your into Sth American spirits.they have a book.

The fish tacos were very good, also liked the seasonal juicy steak taco. I should have gone for more tacos!

(Our table was just next to the staircase, which felt a bit not so comfortable seeing all the shoes closeups at/above my eye level.)

Spectacular spread for our group today - the recommendation on how much to order was spot on and the flavours were stellar. Guac was vibrant and fresh, while the tacos had a brilliant spread of flavours and the hot sauce was peerless - sweet, smoky, and a good pep.

I'm sad I didn't take photos but the flavours were memorable. I had the brussel sprouts, crispy potatoes, mole and pumpkin, fish taco and a goat taco and everything was amazing. Super fresh ingredients, all levels of balance and flavour and great value for the level of flavour and quantities. Awesome wine and cocktail selection. My only negative was the mezcal negroni. I haven't marked it down because it had everything it needed, balance in flavour and high quality ingredients; I just realised I'm too much of a negroni purest for this one. Highly recommend dining there and the bigger the group, the more you get to try!

Great cocktails and food is amazing - many dishes would be worthy of a high end restaurant but this place is unpretentious with friendly relaxed service

Knowledgeable and helpful crew serving up seriously good Mexican food and drinks.
Definitely worth a visit if Mexican in Carlton is on your radar.

Taquitos is a cool venue, good vibe, good seating options inside, outside and out the back. Staff are friendly and helpful but the service can be a tad slow. Food here is a bit meh! It's below ok but not bad. The menu reads well but it does not come through to the plate. The Ceviche was boring to be honest, nothing that made it enjoyable, but you're eating. The fish taco was the highlight, light, good flavours and a go to. The guacamole and chips were good too but the rest of the tacos were very meh. The crispy skin chicken was not crispy but soggy chicken fat, the pork tasted like canned tuna and sloppy. We left full but it was not a great experience and I could not recommend people to go. Glad we tried it giving the other Google's reviews and how busy this place gets, but won't be back. Much better Mexican available elsewhere. 2.5 stars if I could as it's not bad, but it's not quiet ok

Ay carambaaaaaa, absolutely astonished by the amazing attention to abysmal service as soon as you walk through the doors of the spicy restaurant. To be greeted by half the restaurant seats being empty and told they were fully booked. It was rather embarrassing and showed complete disregard to potential new customers to the establishment. And to rub salt in the wound they were hiding a waiting list that didnt exist. What else doesn't exist or magically pops up, surprise! Welcome to Taquito's
