Little Miss Mexico

Great vibes and decent food. Perfect place to hang out and have a few Coronas and some nachos.

Finally visited this place on a recent trip back to Adelaide. We were there at about 3pm on a Saturday afternoon, and the place was deserted (that being said, the whole city was frighteningly quiet that evening). I loved the décor, the staff were nice and attentive, and the nachos were delicious! It seems to be the kind of place that Adelaide needs.
Unfortunately, with bottles of Corona costing $ 8 and margaritas a whopping $ 15, the drinks were a little pricey for my liking.

Came alone since I’m new to Adelaide. Asked about the drinks and bartender points to fridge. I ask about cocktails and she says margaritas or mojitos. Any special mojitos I say, and she said «no such thing». Not to mention her lack of enthusiasm about the food menu. Dude, I get mojitos with different fruits all the time, and then she goes to say «I’m surprised you’ve never had a mojito» I actually disliked her immensely. Hope the food is better than the service…
Anyway, I ate and the other staff were pretty cool and the food was basically amazing. The mojito too lol. So I started with 2 but give it 4 stars because I especially like the décor.

I’ve been here a couple if times on a Sunday afternoon for some laid back, quiet drinks. I chose this venue to hold my birthday drinks on a Saturday night which unbeknown to me was during a weekend picked to hold a Mexican fiesta there. Cue 2 dressed up donkeys, free face painting and a Mexican band.
It gets quite busy inside here so be prepared for a line up any time after 9. Also limited sheltered areas if it’s raining. Drinks are a little bit on the pricey side. The imported Mexican beer costs the same a

Cute but sceney. Dress up if you’re coming here — everyone else does. Also big queues after 6 pm and it’s nice and all but really not worth the wait. Also I had some chips with unpleasant seasoning and quite frankly, given the hype, this disappointed me.

Great pop-​up fringe venue. Carafes of sangria went down very well on a hot day (perhaps TOO well), but should’ve eaten properly (I ordered one fish taco that was yummy, but not enough). Cute place, but the nature of pop-​up venues is that you have to accept the toilet is a port-​a-​loo.

For starters is this the 90’s? Why are there so many people in here with pretend regrowth smoking? Eew maybe a non-​smoking section would be good idea for little miss mexico as it is a bit of a hipster trap.
Secondly my sangria scored 7 out of 10 sangria points. I questioned whether it was alcoholic a few times as it seemed pretty weak, and didn’t have that strong, earthy sangria taste. But the alcohol does catch you later, so in retrospect it was a delicious fruity drink, and possibly a good option if you don’t like your drinks to taste alcoholic.
Overall the venue is really cool, and I really like the use of second hand furniture, which gives a cool vibe, there are a lot more seating areas than you would imagine from the outside. That being said get in early if you want a seat/​not to line up.
I didn’t get to try the food, but I will definitely be back to try the zucchini and mushroom taco.

Little Miss Mexico is a great little pop-​up. Last year the Vinteloper Urban Winery was the main feature, but this time Little Miss Mexico has stepped in to take over, offering a little Vinteloper on the side.
The space is fun and colourful, and it’s actually quite large. It’s a good thing considering there are already line-​ups at 6pm on a Friday night. They use IKEA gadgets like cheese graters and sifters as lanterns, and have walls adorned with bright colours and cacti. It’s all very fun.
I haven’t actually been for the Vinteloper wine flight tastings, but as a fan of Vinteloper wines, I do recommend it. Their white wine sangria is light and refreshing, not amazing, but a great summer drink.
Food was unfortunately a bit of a let down. The fish and mango taco was just that. Fish and mango wrapped in a tortilla. They could do with some more fresh produce to add some flavour and texture. Adding some coriander and maybe a bit of slaw or fresh salsa would have really brought the taco alive.
They seem to have put a lot of effort into everything else, it would be great to see them putting the same into their food. If they want to stick around for longer than the festive season let’s hope they add a little oomph to their menu.

Love this little pop-​up bar in Grenfell Street. The sangria is served cold and tasty, with a boozy hit that sneaks up on you. They offer tacos, burritos and quesadillas that are made on the spot, as well as a few other Mexican-​style treats (deconstructed nachos, anyone?).
The food is probably a little overpriced for how much you get, but what does end up on your plate tastes fantastic and really hits the spot on a hot day. Staff are generally friendly and helpful, and both food and drinks were served up quickly.
I was last there on a Sunday afternoon, and at around 4pm a guy showed up pushing a gelato cart and set up shop near the Grenfell Street entrance. I mean really, a place that serves gelato, Mexican food and sangria? What more could anyone want? Check it out, you’ll love it too.

Brilliant idea, décor and location, great staff. Thought we were in for a great night, despite paying $ 25 for a weak margherita and a Corona, then went to order food only to be told they’d run out! Seriously, this was at 7.30 last night, the place was moderately busy, town was pumping with the Garden opening, what were they [not] thinking!!!
