Mex It Up - Restaurant in Chennai - Chennai, India

You can't order blindly here and expect the best meal of your life. But if you order correctly- Avocado toast, tacos - you might get it correct. If you want to subject your stomach to fusion food, this place is a perfectly decent choice.

Amazing food in a cozy relaxed setting. Since it was my first time trying out Mexican Cuisine, I went with Chef's recommendations and loved every dish that was served to me - the cheese samosas and churros, the burritos and tostadas (prawn thatte ones especially), their avocado dishes including the yummy avocado shake - all were uniquely tasty. I since went there couple more times to try out more from their menu and also had ordered via Zomato and the quality was consistently good all through. Oh yes I almost forgot - their Watermelon Basil Paloma is impeccable!

A one liner for this restaurant : Do not judge it from outside. From the outside it will look like some way expensive over the top Indo-Mexican eatery, due to it being empty for most of the time. However do go inside. Went along with my friends for dinner. Ordered some vegan salad, mushroom soft shell tacos, chicken 65 burrito, butter chicken burrito and mushroom burrito. Overall quite good taste of all the dishes but my personal favorite was the mushroom soft shell taco and the chicken 65 burrito. The food quantity was good, enough to fill up with one burrito. However a few shortcomings, which I felt was a little cold shoulder from the staff. It's not that he didn't help or answer to our query or anything. But one of my friend had got some broken plastic bit in his burrito. We brought it to the notice of the staff. None of us are expecting any refund or free stuff or anything. We were quite ok to let it pass since mistakes do happen. What we were expecting was an apology, but not even that. That did feel out place. But still definitely would recommend people to go and try for the food. Go for the dishes which you feel comfortable with and surely you will be satisfied.

A quaint place, tucked away in the heart of the city . The ambience, the place settings....all are so very tastefully done. The menu is simple with various options. We loved all the food. The watermelon drink was delicious! The tacos, the guacamole, the dessert....everything was fresh and value for money!!!!

We went for dinner . Ordered Classic French fries - 4/5 Chicken pani puri shots - 3.5 ( could hardly find chicken and the puri was huge to fit in) Chicken cheese nachos - 4.5 / 5 Cheese sandwich - 2.5 ( just not wanted I expected , very dry and highly toasted) Milo tres leches -4.3 ( taste was good but the centre was not soaked well like the sides) Cinnamon roll apple sauce dessert . 2/5 ( no comments ) Even French fries took 25 mins . The taste is okay . Serving takes very long . Sunday night 7:45 we reached and left at 9:35 just for these 5 dishes . No parking Very few people to serve.

One of the go to places for Mexican food in Chennai. The ambience is relaxed. The place is spacious and has ample seating. Coming to the food, the pick of the lot were the Jalapeno Cheese samosa and the mushroom Burrito bowl. The Cranberry orange drink was delightful too. The service was a bit slow but I guess we can attribute it to teething issues. Looking forward to visiting again in the coming days

It's like a small house turned into a cafe. The menu here is not that costly compared to other eateries. This eatery offers a fusion of Indian and Mexican food. I ordered a chicken burrito bowl, Chips and dips, Caramelized banana chimichangas and a Watermelon basil Paloma. The bill came around 800 - 900. It's peaceful to visit this place if you're a loner who loves to read. They have leave-one-take-one policy, where you can bring books of yours and leave it here in place of the book you take. You have to scan the QR code to order here. Speaking of the interior, it's Mexican themed with paintings of figures which reminds of Mexico. Another high side of this place is that they have vegan options and gluten-free options to choose from. The waiter here was so patient and kind in explaining about the menu and giving recommendations. The food didn't suit my taste buds that much. For those who want to try Mexican food which is not heavy in the pocket, you can definitely give it a go.

Ambiance and service are top notch!!! That was a single line complement, but it is one of the highest orders :) It is a restaurant more in the premium price range when looked at from the cost vs quantity perspective. We were warmly welcomed and we were introduced to the outlet's concept of Indo-Mexican fusion by a courteous gentleman who also offered us some suggestions. One again- top notch service. We had an authentic pani poori connoisseur with us and was a bit hesitant to order the pani pooris here, but the 'fusion' was well received by her :) The guacamole and nachos were tasty, and the small portion sizes started slowly dawning upon us. The veg tiffin which had an assortment was a good one to try and taste some different items. The cheesy jalapeno samosas were worth a mention for sure! Among the ice teas and juices, the watermelon paloma also deserves a special mention. Smooth watermelon juice which apparently had strawberry and chia seeds blended in it. It was the best of the 4 drinks we'd ordered. Overall, for about 1.3k for the 4 of us on half tummies, it was a nice time spent here trying out what Mex it up had to offer and experiencing their warm service. Price the dishes any lower and I'd probably make it my go-to-place if I need to catch up with friends over some interesting light snacks.
