After seeing Dunedin Town Hall, it may be a good idea to visit this restaurant. According to the visitors' comments, Mexican dishes here are tasty. Visit Alley Cantina for a break and degust good nacho chips, soft tacos and chimichangas. You will like its food, especially tasty churros. Order delicious margaritas, Sangria or wine, it's a must when visiting this place. It's easy to find this spot due to its great location. The cute staff works hard, stays positive and makes this place wonderful. Nice service is something clients appreciate here. This restaurant provides you with a great choice of dishes at democratic prices. The modern decor and homey atmosphere let guests feel relaxed here. But Alley Cantina has been rated below average by Google.

Had an awesome time with my family on Valentine Day, we had quesadillas so good and freshly made. Tortilla chips is very nice homemade as well. The borito is also good and tasty. Food arrived fast. My kids enjoy the dance floor. Overall it was an awesome experience. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $20–30 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes Quesadilla
One star for margarita jugs! Everything else was a disappointment. Cheesy Jalapeno bites tasted like periperi bites, no jalapeno 😑 food came about one hour late. Spacious place for group gatherings if you don't mind waiting long for food. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner

Do you like inauthentic cuisine? Do you like chewing on cardboard? Do you like being the victim of a bait N’ switch? Well this is the place for you. Recently I made the choice to take my family here after talking it up thinking of fond past memories, but to my surprise after ordering from what appeared to be an identical menu to the one I’ve ordered from countless times before the food that arrived to our table was not only inflated in price but also vastly inferior. For starters we ordered the corn chips with Guacamole which have always been made in house but when they arrived they were obviously poured out of a bag which actually made me speechless. I considered that perhaps this was my fault and maybe i’d misread the menu but after looking at an online menu I was able to see the exact same items but with minor phrasing changes and original pricing. Next came out mains and my heart sank. Historically this has been my favourite restaurant in Dunedin but now it’s just a cheap, inauthentic impersonation. When it came time to pay I was asked if everything was okay to which I respectfully informed them that “no, everything was not okay” and after explaining I was given “well we have a new chef” and nothing more. Were there no recipes left by the previous chef? Maybe you should rebrand if you cannot meet the standards of the previous one? I walked away not only disappointed but as if myself and my family had fallen victim to a bait N’ switch scam. I will never return and recommend you do the same.

Four years ago I rated alley cantina 5/5. I've just had to change my rating to a 1 star. Tonight we got nachos delivered. I ordered gf and my husband regular. I think it cost around $50 incl delivery. The size was significantly smaller than it used to be. They were cold. It did not taste good at all. No flavour! I used to rave about Alley Cantina and LOVED the nachos. Now, I do NOT recommend. Please do not go here if you want nice Mexican food! Food: 1
First, my rating would be 3.5 but I can't do that. I really liked the ambient, decoration and feel of the place. Having an early dinner there was no crowd but I imagine it may be popular place. The foood was ok and that is my biggest disappointment. Salad was overdressed and not spicy or hot and that's what I was expecting. Staff was friendly and served me promptly.

They are FANTASTIC. The service is 11/10 and the food is wonderful with great lively atmosphere. Chef took unnecessary and infinitely kind care to make our starters without butter as he noticed we had a vegan at our table. So kind and so warm. 100% recommend! Plus they have amazing margaritas :)) Also so so affordable it’s ridiculous. Vast vegan menu :) Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $30–40 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

As the other reviews have mentioned Alley Cantina used to be the great! Now their food is awfull, the chef must of pre-empted our arrival as he appears to have cooked our food last week, leaving it to sit on the windowsill to cool before serving it to us. Not what it used to be! 😪 Food: 1 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 1

Complete devoid of any spice, or taste for that matter. I’m truly disappointed I didn't read the recent reviews first. I would highly recommend finding somewhere else to eat rather than wasting your money at this place. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $50–60 Food: 1 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 1
