    Yum! Don't go to the moon! Go to la cholita! Had the ceviche starter, pork hoc main and beef taco. Pork hoc was amazing!!! Only thing i would suggest is offering free sides of corriander/guac dips etc

    Excellent quality food. The restaurant has a great atmosphere and the staff are very friendly! Tried the pork tacos and their guacamole, it's a must eat!

    Hunted high and low for a decent mexican place after being spoilt by melbourne's mamasita. Glad to say I've been pleasantly surprised by this place. Guacamole is a must!

    Stumbled upon this little Mexican gem a while ago on a night out. Completely fell in love with the place - the atmosphere, the decor, the sangria! Def try the guacamole.

    really? lol!! For those who does not know what La Cholita means in spanish is a diminutive way to say Flip Flop in spanish NA -mexico to SA It is a slang. Please do your research in spanish culture.

    Start with guac. Then tacos: fish, pork, beef cheek. If hungry get a chorizo quesadilla. Washed down with a Negro Modelo

    Great tequila bar, primarily. But the Mexican food (I think of 'em as bar snacks) & beer are ace too. No bookings - so get there either early.. or late..

    +1 for the prawn ceviche, tacos are tiny but tasty. Octopus and potato was awesome! Great selection of Mexican beers... So don't order Corona!

    Great guacamole, but these guys really should have done their research. La cholita is also a term for transvestite cockroaches!

    The 20-30min wait turned into a 1hour wait outside, before the 7 of us were crammed into a waiting table for 2, then moved to a table for 4. Waited for another 25mins without our drink order taken.

    Don't come for the food but the large selection of tequila you will need to wash down the dry boring food... Or start with the tequila and you will need the food!

    The food was good and the beer selection is nice. Service was absolutely awful. Had to leave the table just to ask a waitstaff to come take our order twice in the one visit.

    This place should have done their research. Cholita is a derogatory term for Terrible Butt Stench. Great food tho
