Chihuahua Taqueria

Chihuahua Taqueria is one of our favourite spots in Byron Bay! Located in at Habitat in Byron’s Arts & Industrial Estate, this little taco bar is all about fresh, vibrant, flavour packed Mexican eats made with quality ingredients and a “simple, fast, delicious” philosophy. They’re open daily from 11am to 8pm, and no matter what time we visit, the food is always consistently amazing. We absolutely love the tacos here! They’re some of the best in Byron. Our favourites are the Pescado, Pollo, and the Salt & Pepper Calamari, and we’ve even tried some of the specials which have always been delicious. Make sure to get a Margarita, the Mexico City Fries and the Corn on the Cob too… seriously SO good! Everything is super fresh, generous, and amazing value for money. The staff are really lovely, and despite how busy it gets (because everyone knows how good it is!), the vibe is always relaxed and welcoming. We’ve noticed tables fill up fast, so it’s definitely worth booking ahead, especially if you’re coming with family or a group. Highly recommend Chihuahua:) Such a fun atmosphere, incredible tacos, and consistently great food every time we visit!

Top restaurant to eat in Byron Bay. Everything is fresh, the meat comes from local farms, and the portions are generous. Excellent value for money. Friendly service. You should try the quesadilla and the cerdo taco.

Cute little spot in Byron Bay. The tacos are fresh and single-serve, though the flavours could be a bit better balanced. The fish taco was a little dry, and the pulled beef on the nachos was tender enough but tasted more curried than classic Mexican. The real highlight was the hot jalapeño poppers crispy on the outside, perfect set filling on the inside and chilli coriander sauce—so good! The taco shells seemed homemade with a nice bite, though a bit on the al dente side. Service was lovely and our waitress was an absolute ray of sunshine. Not a fan of the weekend surcharges.

We just had lunch here and it was fantastic! The food was so fresh! Generous serving sizes! I got nachos with the beef brisket, which had so much brisket in it! Most places give half the amount of beef I got in this meal. Both the pescado and pollo tacos were delicious! My fiancé had the quesadilla which was a generous serving and delicious as well!

We were looking for a light bite and found this taco, which turned out to be a great choice. The tostada bread was outstanding—soft, fresh, and full of flavor, giving the feeling of eating in Mexico. It was perfectly made and very satisfying. I’m excited to return and explore more of the menu along with some drinks.
