Saporito Taquito Southbank - Melbourne

This restaurant serves high-quality, genuine Mexican cuisine. The enticing aroma of corn immediately had me craving their food as soon as we stepped inside.

This place was soooooo good! I think it’s the best tamal I’ve had in Melbourne! And every single taco I tried was delicious! Kudos to the chef!!

Yes please give me more. Had a quick bite to eat (fish pork) and it was amazing. They even made us Micheladas. Yummy!

We visited Saporito Taquito on a weeknight to celebrate a colleague’s work anniversary. It’s a hidden Mexican treasure in Southbank unassuming and tucked away on quiet Kavanagh Street. Don’t let this fool you though, it’s one of the most legitimate and authentic Mexican restaurants in Melbourne. They have more than just your standard tacos here it’s a wide variant of authentic Mexican flavours which are all tapas. You must try the Croquettes, Tamales, Gorditas and Tostadas. And of course, don’t forget to order some tequilas and margaritas as well! Saporito Taquito has a local restaurant vibe and gives you the feeling as if you’re visiting Mexico. Definitely check this place out the next time you’re craving Mexican food!

The food was fantastic and the staff were very welcoming. We ordered the beetroot gnocchi with chicken and the beef burger, both of which were cooked perfectly and tasted amazing. We were impressed by the variety of delicious-sounding options on the menu and can't wait to come back and try more dishes.
