Mamacita's

Mamacita's is a Cal-Mex restaurant on Harrington Street in District Six, bringing the spirit of Los Angeles street food to Cape Town with a Mexican twist. Its kitchen turns out tacos and street-style burgers inspired by the food trucks of East LA, built into a menu its own description calls a nod to the city's culinary diversity.

The drinks list leans into the same West Coast influence, with a cocktail menu of signature drinks, each one crafted to reflect the essence of a different iconic West Coast rapper. The Harrington Street address is the flagship of a small group that also trades on Kloof Street and in Blouberg. It suits diners around District Six and central Cape Town after a casual Cal-Mex meal with a side of LA culture.
