Come here for a meal right after visiting Whanganui Regional Museum. According to the clients' comments, Mexican dishes here are quite nice and the menu is well-organized. Ordering nicely cooked soft tacos, southern fried chicken and chips and guacamole is what most clients advise. From the guests' viewpoint, churros are tasty here. You will hardly forget good sparkling sangria, margaritas or beer that you can degust. A selection of delicious coffee is offered to visitors. This restaurant is well known for its great service and friendly staff, that is always ready to help you. Pay reasonable prices for eating at La Quattro. You will definitely appreciate the pretty atmosphere and lovely decor. This place scored 4.2 in the Google rating system.

This place was a nice surprise. Is it authentic Mexican food, no, but it still has a Mexican vibe in some of the food flavor profiles. As someone who has visited and eaten in Mexican A LOT, I never have super high hopes for NZ Mexican to be authentic, mostly due to product availability. That being said, the esquites were really good and had a nice flavor when you added the sour cream to it; very reminiscent of elote. The guacamole was ok, but needed needed a bit of lime to really brighten it, that being said I would order it again. The cauliflower taco was very plain, as in the crispy cauliflower lacked flavor and was overpowered by the spicy crema that was slathered on, and my least favorite. The mushroom fajitas were a huge surprise and really delicious. The coconut flavor described on the menu threw me off, but I couldn't really taste it in the dish, plus it's so NICE to finally see fajitas on an NZ Mexican restaurant menu! The rice needed some more flavor, salt, acid, and cilantro. The black beans were nice, but again a tad bland. I had to ask for the black beans as a side. I wish they included the beans with the fajitas as a side, which is more traditional. I also had to ask for a side of their tomato pico, but that is not tomato pico. What is served is all chopped onion and a tiny bit of tomato, no garlic, not slat, no lime, no cilantro; calling this onion pico would probably be more on point. The margarita traditional is good and not too sweet, which is what I prefer. The decor is fabulous and reminded me of American Mexican restaurants. The service was very slow and not very attentive with staff standing behind the bar/register just hanging out. I had to get up and ask for our plates to be cleared after 20 mins. Overall I would recommend this place and I would go back again. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $100+ Food: 4 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 4 Recommended dishes Guacamole and Corn Chips

We had the place to ourselves on a Saturday lunch service which had me a little worried but all in all we loved our food, had service all to ourselves, food came in good time and was fresh, tasty and full of color and our drinks were amazing.

We went over the Easter weekend so the staff told us the kitchen was 15-20 behind, which sounded ok for us. But reality was way different... They took around 10-15 minutes only to take the order (the first time). After 25 minutes I asked another waitress how much longer where they to at least the entry - a simple guacamole and chips... She came back saying that our order was mixed up with someone else's and she took it again. The same waitress came back 5 -10 minutes after, for taking the order for a 3rd time. We finally waited 1 hour since we sat down to get our entry.... No apologies or explanations whatsoever. Food was ok, but honestly nothing special or great. The salad was very small and the chicken fajita's only good thing was the chicken all the sides were average, as you might see in the photos. In my personal everything we tried was overpriced, just not worth the price or the wait. Unfortunately I would not recommend it.
Overall jerk fried chicken good, tortilla chips good, bomber chicken too spicy for me (requested medium) Not really a Mexican fan but wanted to try something different. Had it as takeaway. The jerk chicken was good and cooked well. I enjoyed the home made tortilla chips and dip and they are priced reasonable. I got the bomber chicken as a main and asked for medium as I like some spice but not too much. Unfortunately I thought the heat of it was still quite overpowering, i personally felt like I couldnt taste the flavour over the spice of the dish. It's served with coleslaw and lime rice which was okay. Meal type Dinner Price per person $40–50 Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes Southern Jerk Fried Chicken

Brilliant decor, as good as the food. Tacos were fresh with an amazing blend of flavours, suicide chicken was perfectly hot and cooked to perfection. This from people who don't usually eat Mexican because its usually average to poor in New Zealand. A must visit in Whanganui!

A nice enough meal but not special. No doubt better if you are with a few people and can share the plates. Nice service and atmosphere though. Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4
