Our 
Story

Marcelo and Roger embarked on their journey into Mexican cuisine with a bold dream that began on a humble food truck, adorned with vibrant papel picado and Mexican artwork. Their unconventional start led them through bustling streets, markets, and various events across Auckland, where their Tacos, Nachos & Quesadillas quickly captured the hearts and taste buds of locals. Eager crowds flocked to their truck each evening at markets and festivals, drawn by the promise of delicious, authentic flavors.

Encouraged by the growing demand for their food, Marcelo and Roger decided it was time to take their passion to the next level.

They scouted locations until they found the perfect spot in Mt. Albert, where they could establish a permanent home for their culinary vision. Here, they didn't just open a restaurant; they created an inviting eatery brimming with warmth and flavour. The atmosphere was enriched by vibrant décor, colourful murals adorned with traditional Mexican crafts, and the spirited melodies of mariachi and ranchera music that filled the air, providing a truly immersive dining experience.

Their restaurant quickly became a gathering place where families enjoyed hearty meals, friends shared laughter over margaritas, and strangers bonded over shared plates of guacamole and salsa. Each dish served at their establishment is a testament to their dedication and passion for Mexican cuisine, bringing a taste of Mexico to a corner of New Zealand with every taco crafted.

Marcelo and Roger's story continues to unfold with each meal they serve, each dish prepared with care and love, enriching their community with the Flavors and spirit of Mexico, one taco at a time. AMIGOS
