Cuisine: Mexican
Overall Impression: 9/10
The chefs at Acland St Cantina bring a polish and precision to Mexican cuisine that is rare in Melbourne - every dish we have ordered from our numerous visits has been perfectly seasoned and consistently excellent. The new spring menu is no different.
Top: Smoked duck gordita, sweet mango & chipotle salsa
Cocktail: Mexican Penicillin - mezcal, tequila, lime, ginger & honey
Bottom: Masa fried soft shell crab
ASC's new spring menu is vibrant, fresh and innovative with a strong focus on seasonality and locally sourced produce.
Left: Yellowtail kingfish ceviche with coconut, chilli, tequila & lime
Right: Whole sea bream roasted in banana leaf with mole rojo & grilled plantain
Grilled panella cheese with tamarind eggplant, spring vegetables & lime
Spiced rice pudding, dulce de leche cream, blood oranges
Start your boozy night on the tequila right here. With a wonderful drinks menu and a mouthwatering menu, ASC is brilliant for anything from a casual night out or a celebration (any excuse will do!).

I first tried ASC on the basis of a gastrology blog review and have to thank you - the place is tops. I am a St Kikda local, love mexican, love the food here and always enjoy myself. You have found Acland Street Cantina a new regular.
