    Are there any family friendly Mexican restaurants in South County Dublin or any in town for that matter?

    Thanks

    I brought the kids to Acapulco on South Great George's St in town recently, they all enjoyed it. I can't think of one out this way.

    There's a Mexican in dundrum center.
    I've been there twice. The first time it was really nice, the 2nd it was terrible.
    The food was pretty tasteless & portion was measly. When i complained i was told the owner approves all dishes before they come out so she thought it was good enough. It was Valentine's w/e so it was jammed so maybe it was because of that.
    I ordered the same meal because it was so nice the first time I'd been there. I haven't been back since though

    Cactus Jacks is good, it is Millenium Walk off Middle Abbey Street. The Jervis luas stop is 1 min from it.

    Nothing beats El Grito in Temple Bar - no real seating area but it really is authentic as it gets. recommend tacos pastor.

    brilliant spot alright, but not really suitable for a family meal :)

    Just bumping up my own thread here to say we tried a new Mexican in Dun Laoghaire last night for one of the kids' birthdays (she requested Mexican again this year for her birthday dinner).

    Madhouse at the bottom on York Rd

    Hopefully it lasts longer than more restaurants in Dun Laoghaire.
    We had nachos, wings, fajitas, enchiladas, quesadillas & tacos - all were very good.

    good to hear, looking forward to trying it.

    El Grito has moved from Temple Bar to Mountjoy Sq. A bit out of the way, but well worth the visit. Salsa in Mayor Sq (IFSC) is another town favourite.
