El Culo Del Mundo

Was ok. The bartender was attentive and obviously took care in his work. I made a bad choice of drink, Negroni Margarita. Like to try something new. Don't think I would get that again. Was sounding so great, smokey bitter etc. Bartender said "its like Marmite- you either love it or hate it" Wise man. Had chips and a couple of tacos. Ok. Not spicy. Decor was a bit lacking. Mexican music playing was bit loud and irritating. Not much vibe tonight. "No tappy" on the eftpos. lol.

Had the vegan hop burger ... Spicy but nicey. A nice selection of beers and mezcal ... On the menu they have a variety of snacks and tacos. No dessert! My waistline thanks you. My sweet tooth must wait ...

Had an amazing experience at The bottom of the World! The guac and chips were amazing. In most cases, the guacamole is the main event, but at El Culo the chips are cooked fresh for every dish ordered and it takes the flavour to another level. The tacos and cocktails would normally need to be raved and recommended too, but the guacamole and chips just beat everything hands down. Just visit and see what I'm taking about.

It was out first time and it was brilliant. Bone marrow - delicious. We devoured the lamb cutlets The pork carnitas taco was tasty, and the beef cheek one according to the partner was better. You’ll have to try them both. And it is all gluten free unless otherwise marked. Get in!

The food was absolutely delicious! It was busy but our food came out so quickly and was top notch.

Delicious and authentic Mexican food. Even the grasshoppers were yummy. They were crispy and no off flavour. Good range of beer you can choose from.

I really enjoyed this place, it's a bit dark blue inside but that's just due to the lack of natural light which isn't their fault. The chicken taco with the fresh pineapple was so good. Really fresh ingredients and all hand made. I loved the handmade tortillas. The homemade sauces are also really tasty! A great selection of beers here too! I would have loved to try more of the food because the menu looks amazing!

Spectacular bar with an epic range of New Zealand Craft beers! El Culo del Mundo is a great refresh of this Mt Vic site with an interior design reminiscent of some out-of-the-way Oaxaca bistro. The space is big enough for large groups, but books and crannies ensure you have a sense of intimacy and privacy. Sunday afternoons offer up a small crowd of easy-going, beer afficianados. The wine range is excellent, leaving kiwi drops to others, the eclectic choice of northern hemisphere wines will introduce your palette to new and robust tastes. The beer range is even better with twenty or so kegs on tap that rotate as soon as the keg is empty. Enjoy a local Heyday tamarind gose or Maiden multiverse passion fruit sour ale as easily as calling on a Sawmill Pale Ale or North End’s Table de Brasseur Belgian beer. Also, el Culo del Mundo is one of the few spots I’ve seen a North End brewery hand pump available for our more British ale drinkers. If all that doesn’t appeal, they make a mean pisqao sour! The food matches up to the thought of the alcohol offerings! Focus on making everything in house, the Chef has set their menu to gluten-free by default with a 50/50 split of vegetarian and meat options. Vegans will be pleased with choice from chilli corn, or mushroom tacos. The guacamole is excellent and served atop delicious home made corn chips, while the home-made chorizo tacos are brilliantly spicy amidst soft and light tortillas. The cerviche also proves a popular choice! The staff get a special mention for being excellently easy-going, finding an easy balance between being attentive and keeping any social pressure off. Awesomely, they’re all intimately well-verses in the food and drink should you need advice. Go here for an excellent bar environment, and enjoy tasting superb drinks and even better Mexican food!

In my personal experience I loved this place, the grilled bone marrow and the slow coked ox tongue taco were amazing, and I say this as a Mexican, amazing flavour, so soft and delicious, the beer was good too, the staff is friendly. This place should be in your list.

I went with a group friends. It has nice casual environment, the staff was very friendly and the place has very good vibes. We ordered some nachos with guacamole, veggie tacos and chicken tacos. We loved the presentation and they were was delicious, I would say though that I found the portions slightly small.
