A good option before a gig - Edit
This place is a fun, affordable spot with tasty options. We had the beetroot chorizo and frioles tacos, the broccolini mole and the guac. The mole sauce was a highlight for me. We were a little rushed early on a Tuesday evening to wrap up, but hadn’t booked our table

Happy Food Coma - Edit
Thanks BU team for a delicious ‘Feed Me’ dinner, great vegan options!
Read moreEspecially loved the corn, absolutely delicious. Lovely service, always had a new table water jug ready to go.
Pros: Food (more whole foods), Drinks, Staff
Cons: A little cramped (seating near bar), No seitan options- if you like that sort of thing!

Good for feasting and vibing! - Edit
This dimly lit, underground restaurant, with its bold, colourful decor and 90s music playing, immediately felt like somewhere special.
Read moreWe had reserved the bottomless brunch, which included a set menu and unlimited drinks. The food was amazing, with portions so generous we couldn’t even finish them.
The drinks selection was impressive, offering a variety of options like Palomas, espresso martinis, spritzes, wines, and beers.

A Mexican Feast! - Edit
Plenty of vegan options to select from and a really fun and moody vibe!
Read moreIf you’re going on a Friday or Saturday night you have to dine on their ‘Feed Me’ menu. Our 5:15pm booking also gave us the choice of the pre-theatre menu which I would highly recommend.
The standouts were the Elote (street corn), Totopos with Guac, and Tacos De Frijoles (black beans) - all of them were flavourful and delicious.
I really enjoyed their Guava Mimosas too!
Pros: Vibe, Cocktails, Street corn

Amazing bottomless! - Edit
Love bodega underground and the cool vibes. I came here for a bottomless and it was fantastic. The drinks were so creative and not just your typical wine and beer. Food was all great and I loved that they were quick to bring out drinks and people on the table could adjust their meals on their pref i.e. vegan for some meat for others. The corn is a standout.

Boozy brunch - Edit
Visited for boozy brunch! We really enjoyed the vegan nachos and corn on the cob but didn’t like the pumpkin slice. Food and service was mostly good but wasn’t fantastic value for money as lots of it is small sharing plates rather than individual like advertised. Really nice vibes tho
Read morePros: Nachos, Service
Cons: Expensive , Small portions

Vegan meal had duck in it - Edit
Partner ordered a vegan meal, wait staff announced it was vegan and this was double confirmed.
Read moreMeal contained duck and it was sent back.
Luckily it had not been eaten.
There are way too many good vegan options out there than to come back here.
Wait staff said sorry, it wasn't their fault, but that really was not good enough.
Cons: Vegan meal with duck in it

Cool place with vegan/ vegetarian options - Edit
Most of dishes can be prepared vegan - you just need to ask as the menu suggests . Gluten free seems to be more of an issue when it comes anti vegan options . But their vegan roasted cauliflower ( mention you want it vegan! ) was heavenly. They also hav effect drinks and service is super friendly .
Read morePros: Great interior , Vegan options , Great cocktails
Cons: Can get very busy which slows the service down

Trendy, overpriced, ok food - Edit
It was packed on a Thursday night. There a few veg/ vegan options. The sweet potato tacos were good, the baked cauliflower was bad, the guac was average. Everything seemed more expensive than necessary. We paid $100 for 2 meals and 2 drinks.
Read morePros: not the standard tex mex fare
Cons: overpriced, average flavours
