Alley Cantina Dunedin - Dunedin Central

What a fun place to eat. Hidden away down an alley from George Street, not far from the octagon is this massive mexican joint that comes with a dance floor. Here you get to indulge in strawberry margariras and jalapeno poppers. The menu has all your mexican essentials rich in cheese and flavour and the interior artwork is mesmerising. Definitely a place to be on a Friday night.

Great place. The all in approach to the atmosphere they built is great. Although I did struggle with the lighting as were were in a corner and the only lighting was really from a couple candles...the place felt warm. Food was good with the jalapeno balls being a standout.<br/ <br/

Mmmm the corn chips here a literally to die for. Had such a great experience here, definitely a fun place to have a BYO party with your uni friends. The food portions are HUGE! Highly recommend sharing your main with someone else because theres no way you'll be able to finish it all on your own. The margarita jugs were also delish. Only thing that I could probably comment on is that the place needs a bit more sprucing up as it seems a tad outdated, other than that the food is perfect!

Nice ambiance, good drinks and the food was really good, very impressed and would definitely go back again, tacos were very nice, was a group of eight and we were all impressed, yummy desert too

It was a cool night in Dunedin I was craving Mexican food for that chilli hit ! Was strolling down one of the many streets which branch out from the octagon noticed this little cantina at the end of a long dark alley. It was like a guiding light at the end of a tunnel in we went to this bustling den of music fun. Food was great so was the chilli. They take their chillies seriously I think they had three different sorts there.
