Google lists: dine-in · delivery · takeaway · takes bookings · beer · wine · lunch · dinner · vegetarian options. > Mexico Christchurch is a great spot for tasty Mexican food with a lively atmosphere and friendly service. The tacos and burritos were fresh and full of flavour, and the portions were generous. A perfect place for a casual dinner with friends or family. Definitely worth visiting if you’re in Christchurch and craving Mexican food!, Suren Sivalingam, 5 months ago > The food is affordable and it came out very fast. The food is consistently fine too. I don't expect the greatest service here but the staff are friendly. There are a good amount of vegetarian options., Te Rama Kerr, 7 months ago > This has been my favourite resturaunt for a long time, although I hadn't been to this exact one for awhile, the food here always tastes great but I felt this time around, it could have come out a little warmer, I was sad to see the fried chicken had gone up but then redeemed when we were given more pieces than it used to come with! The tacos however are always my favourite, i was very satisfied with the taste of those., Jessy Howe, 7 months ago ## Doors - [What stood on this ground](https://www.chch.live/before?lat=-43.5319027&lon=172.6394646) - [On the map](https://www.chch.live/map#-43.5319027,172.6394646,17) - [Documents that name it](https://www.chch.live/documents?q=Mexico) - [Christchurch Central City](https://www.chch.live/christchurch-central-city), the suburb - [The OSM record](https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/4139955494), fix it there ## Questions, answered briefly **What is Mexico?** A Mexican restaurant in Christchurch Central City, Christchurch. **Where is Mexico?** 203 Manchester Street, Christchurch Central City, on [Manchester Street](https://www.chch.live/street/christchurch-central-city/manchester-street).
