Tucked just over the train line on Victoria St, Brunswick; Los Amantes is vibrant late-night cantina style taqueria. Warm and casual with brick walls, timber decor and low-lighting inside. The courtyard is bright, jasmine scented and welcoming, perfect for summer Cumbia sessions.

The menu is authentic and fresh. Bringing the best of Mexican street food to Brunswick with traditional cooking methods, explosive flavours and fifteen different types of chilli.

Immerse yourself agave with over 150 tequilas, mezcals, raicillas and sotols. Enjoy tasting flights or catch our mezcalier for a lesson on all things agave spirit.

    Although I booked weeks in advance and requested a table inside, my group of six middle aged peoole were sat outside on the street. It was Valentine's Day, but still I booked way ahead. The service was hectic. No meals came out on time or in the right order. People who ordered early received their meal late. Those who ordered late, received their meal early. We ended up taking away our dessert, as we had a shoto attend starting 8pm. Disappointing. Staff were nice, but run off their feet. Even one guy had to run down the street to get ice for the bar. We usually love it here, but it seemed a bit hit and miss on this occasion.

    Food is fantastic, I always order too much, staff are friendly and helpful. The cocktails are good too although they do take a little while to come so my tip is to know what you want and order as soon as you sit down. Love love

    Great food, fish tacos impossible to beat. They're relatively small-looking portions but we got quite full quite quick! Drinks are amazing value for flavour and size. Note re ambience - indoors is very noisy so not ideal for catchups unless you wanna shout at your friends and repeat yourself lots. Outdoors much more balanced in terms of energy, vibe, and conversation-friendly. Service was great from our usual waitress. One waiter did help clear table and then seemingly forgot our add-on orders but it wasn't too long before this was sorted. Either way I'm a happy repeat patron. 3rd/4th time coming here and Los Hermanos/Amantes doesn't disappoint!

    Booked online to have dinner here with two friends 4 weeks ahead. Got request to confirm my booking by email and text 1-2 days before I was due to go, which I responded ‘Yes’ to. ONE hour before I was due to have dinner there, someone from the restaurant called to say they weren’t actually open on that day. Poor service, sort out your online booking system and/or give people more notice next time.
