Hola
Amigo!
We’ve been serving hot Mexican and cool margaritas since our first Amigos opened in Wānaka in 1995, and we’re still just as obsessed with good food and good times.
These days there are Amigos restaurants across the South Island, each with its own personality but the same lively atmosphere. No matter which one you visit, you’ll find the same welcoming energy, bold flavours, and relaxed vibe that makes it easy to gather, celebrate or just drop in for a casual night out.
Come say Hola! We’d love to see you!
Tacos and margaritas are closer than you think.
With six Amigos restaurants across the South Island, there’s always a good time nearby.
That’s right they all love Amigos! Real love from real people:
“I was here for dinner last night, and I loved it so much I came back for lunch today. Nachos are superb, and the guacamole is outstanding. Great homemade chips. Lovely service and good prices. A winner! And a stunning view of the mountains from my table :)”
“Absolutely loved this Mexican place in Wanaka! Super vegetarian-friendly — not your usual beans–rice–salsa combo. The dishes were full of flavour, with yummy roasted veggies and wholesome portions that felt hearty and satisfying. The rustic vibe paired with the beautiful lake view made it even more special. A must-visit if you’re after something fresh, soulful, and delicious in Wanaka!“
“Went here on Sunday night for the first time and enjoyed the food so much we came back the following Tuesday, Taco Tuesday with all tacos $7 each! I highly recommend the Carnitas, Doble Loco and Falda Y Queso. And the drinks are good too! My wife is vegetarian and had the Halloumi and Coliflor which she enjoyed. I definitely recommend this place and will be back!”
“Food and drinks are always presented well and tastes great. Love the variety of food with something for everyone. The staff are always friendly and willing to help with anything. I Really enjoy the tacos as you can try a few different ones rather than just getting one meal. The brisket taco was so good. It’s great having the outside area for a nice day too.”
“Fantastic tacos and margaritas, highly recommend this place to anyone in Invercargill. Awesome and friendly service, great atmosphere and good prices. Taco Tuesday prices are an incredible deal. Don’t skip this place whether you live in Invercargill or are just passing through.”
“What a treat, food very very good, staff six stars. We popped in on the spur of the moment no booking. Staff super helpful and took the time to go over menu. Will be back and recommend others to give it a go.”
“Love love love this restaurant! Brought a whole lot of heat and flavour to Gore. Great for dinner, lunch or a quick snack. Taco Tuesday is a great promotion, trying new flavours you wouldn’t normally want to pay full price for in case it’s not your cup of tea! The Hamburgesua and the baha fish tacos are so flavourful, nachos are top tier and can’t go wrong with the enchiladas”
“Absolutely brilliant service, food, and loved the range of gluten-free food available. Definitely coming back.”
“What a good wee find on a Tuesday night in Gore! Taco Tuesday was definitely popular and deservedly so! All tacos $7 each what a deal.
Great selection of tacos on offer, something for everyone, it was hard to choose. Ended up with the brisket and the pork and chorizo plus the crunchiest chips ever.
A great busy vibe, a must stop when in Gore. Suggest booking for a Tuesday.”
“This is easily the best Mexican Dunedin hands down. Everything is so well thought out – you can safely order randomly off the menu and you will be happy. Drinks on point, food’s amazing, and don’t forget to save room for dessert!!”
“Wow, the BEST traditional Mexican food we’ve had ever in NZ. We’ve eaten at Hamilton, Auckland and other places around our country, but we highly recommend this place. Great food, atmosphere and service.”
“Yesterday we had a great experience at Amigos Wanaka. We were greeted by a lovely waiter who had us seated in no time. Our food options were huge and all sounded delicious. We opted for the bar choice drink in a jar and both had really decent sized meals. The meals were fresh, flavorsome and vibrant. Couldn’t have asked for more and I can’t wait to come back!”
“This is the goods when it comes to Mexican cuisine. The flavours were amazing, portion sizes generous and pricing very reasonable. Fun funky authentic decor and really friendly team. Also their house made chilli jam is the GOAT!”
“Excellent Mexican meal with family, all enjoyed their dishes for evening meal. Magnificent Mariscos, Nice Nachos”
“We went to Amigos in Cromwell last night and I have to say we had a great evening. The food was great, very tasty, reasonably priced. The bar produced some KILLER margaritas too. What made it even better was the the great service from the staff (special thank you to Riley). This seems to a very young team but they were absolutely CRUSHING IT. Seamless and proffessional service. Well done. My new favourite place.”
“Great food and excellent service , I’ve been coming to amigos Alexandra regularly for a while now and it never misses a beat , super friendly and fast service and a great taco Tuesday deal!
Can’t miss it worth every dollar.”
“Excellent service and great food. The best calamari in the world! Great Quesadillas, Rib-eye steak and Churros, we enjoyed it thoroughly. Unfortunately we had to pass on Margaritas, as we had to hit the road for a long drive, but it’s highly recommended place to go to when in Alexandra.”
“Friendly staff and atmosphere, along with delicious food. Tricky to get authentic Mexican anywhere in NZ, but the food here is fresh and tasty. Great fried chicken, and the nachos are gigantic. Great hot sauces too.”
