The menu, highlighted by what California Tacos refers to as “the #1 largest plate of nachos in Australia” will be similar to its other locations in the country–expect nachos, tacos, quesadillas, burritos, and fries in generous servings.

Slated to open in late January or February 2023, the new taco spot in West End will be located at 120 Boundary St, in a space formerly occupied by Indian restaurant Kulcha’d. Here, guests will be greeted by a tequila-inspired mural, which leads to a large courtyard and a dining space for up to 120 guests.

One of the highlights on the menu is the nacho, served with fresh corn chips, cheese, black beans, avo-peño crema, sour cream, baja aioli, guacamole, salsa fresca, and your choice of protein.

The chain, founded by Mexico-born Ty Yturralde in 2013, makes tacos inspired directly from the beach suburbs in Southern California and Mexico. They proudly use 100 percent homemade, preservative-free corn and flour tortillas.

Aside from giving guests a seriously epic Mexican feast, owners are also planning to introduce live music on Thursday nights and on Sundays. Guests can enjoy a wide range of beverages, including a margarita menu with six varieties, cocktails, local craft beers, wines, and softdrinks, whilst listening to live music.
