   I’m very disappointed with my time at bodega. I booked a table of two for my anniversary and expected to eat at a table like a normal restaurant, however upon arrival to my shock we were made to sit and eat up at the bar!! This is appalling behaviour from a restaurant that doesn’t even say eating at the bar is an option when booking online! We asked to be moved many times even willing to wait for a free table but we’re denied. I’m also quite short, I could barley eat my food as the bar was so high up and narrow you could barley fit more than 3 plates infront of us. I’m extremely disappointed with the service and the lack of accommodation.

   The drinks were great and the staff lovely, but the food was terrible. Everything had obviously been made the day before and arrived reheated and soggy.

   We made a reservation weeks in advanced. Arrived and were told they needed to move people as they were given our seats. We then found out our seats were at the bar which was not specified when booking ( I would have always gone for a table due to back issues) we politely asked if there was a chance we could move to a table and were told ‘sorry they are booked and there is nothing we can do’. We chose not to stay. Overall quite disappointing.

    Found this place online when looking for a boozy brunch. Normally mexican food can be a bit hit or miss for me, but everything was outstanding. We really enjoyed all the food that came out, and the service was impeccable; we had a waiter nearby every 5 minutes or so, was polite and friendly, served us when we needed to be served, but also wasn't hovering so it was really top notch I will almost definitely be coming back again

    Everything that came out for the “Feed Me” set menu amazed us with their flavours. Delicious starters like corn and corn chips n salsas. All the meat was uniquely seasoned and cooked perfectly. Even the cabbage was beautifully cooked and seasoned, that was a big surprise for us. We also enjoyed the churros and ‘Espresso Martinez’ cocktails so much! A must try venue for any Mexican cuisine lover.

    The feed me menu was fantastic - so much food - too much! Sometimes the food came out too quickly - would have been nicer to pause a bit between courses. A very LOUD restaurant - often too difficult to talk to the person across from you. Food was so great though!

    The pre-theatre dining package was great value and freed us up to chat rather than make decisions from the menu! Between us, we had both the vegan and meat options, and all the dishes were delicious. Made the mistake of filling up on corn chips with guacamole and salsa (the first course) so by the time we'd eaten the charred corn and various tacos/burritos, we struggled with the shared potato dish which was the last savoury dish. The churros at the end were nice but excessively sugared so we both had VERY sticky hands when we'd finished. The dulce de leche tasted nice, but not thick enough to cling properly to the churros. Overall a lovely dining experience and our waiter was pleasantly attentive.

    Horrible experience due to the tall waitress with glasses and tattoos in the arm! She sat us in the bar with toilets behind when we booked weeks In Advanced she wouldn’t listen when I said we booked a table! She was the rudest person I’ve met and tried to ruined our experience with her attitude! She was heartless! Luckily the lovely girl at the bar who made our delicious cocktails spoke to manager and moved us to a table that was lovely! I noticed there was plenty of room for the rude waitress to put us in! As I said earlier we booked weeks in advanced! Food was amazing and the atmosphere! My only complaint was that waitress! But no one takes advantage of me and I ended up in a nice table! I think management should speak to her her attitude when we pay so much money is unbelievable! Based on this I won’t go back!

    Great experience at the bottomless brunch! The food was plentiful and yummy (vegan & GF option too), drinks were great although I wish there was just a normal margarita on the menu. The music was suuuuper loud and I had to pretty much yell to my friend sat right next to me, but otherwise far experience.

    My colleagues and I are pleased with the outcome of Bodega. We're still recovering from a food coma and the vibes were perfect. Food and service provided was amazing and we will definitely come back. Everyone was thrilled with the divine service. Thank you so much for looking after us and providing delicious food.

    Great little spot in Melbourne City. This was my second time at Bodega and it was even better than my first. The food is delicious, good portions for yourself or to share. Staff friendly and helpful, good vibes all ‘round. I had a last minute extra person that was able to be accommodated without issue via the chat system through ‘open table’. Very easy to use! Elote, birria tacos and the piñata colada cocktail were stand outs. Because it was my birthday I was also presented with lit candle atop serving of churros which was lovely and funny. Just small things like that go a long way in my opinion.

    Great service, dietary requirements catered to without any issue, friendly staff, easy set menu good value for money, good communication (sorting COVID cancellations). Underground bar vibes, a little noisy but could manage. Table of 11, everyone at the table commented on the good service.
