  This place is great for a meal at any time of the day. The decor gives a rustic atmosphere especially at night time. It is a mexican korean fusion restaurant. We ordered the popular prawn tacos, definitely a hit! We also ordered the fried chicken; with 2 different flavours. I preferred the sweet chilli flavour. Definitely a filling meal and will come back for more! In addition to this, staff were welcoming and helpful with menu recommendations.

  Vecino is a fusion restaurant with Korean and Mexican influences. They definitely achieve a great balance between the two.Located close to Canterbury Station, it makes for a convenient commute here. Service was excellent and very attentive. The menu is large enough without being overly confusing. With the choices being succinct it was an easy decision on what to have. As most of the meals are to share we went with;* Bulgogi Tacos * Crispy Boneless Tenderloin Chicken (Served With Chips, Cabbage Salad And Pickled Daikon) With Teriyaki Sauce* Soba Noodle Salad* Hotteok QuesadillaThe favourites were the crispy chicken tenderloins. Nicely cooked with the right amount of crunch and juicy meat in the middle, you cant go wrong with these. The teriyaki dipping sauce was just right with these. The noodle salad had a nice depth of flavour with a sweet dressing. The tofu and mushrooms have a fantastic flavour. The pomegranates add another sweet punch to the dish.Give this place a go as well worth the trip.

  It’s rare to find a fusion like Korean Mexican so we were super excited to check out Vecino in our home suburb of Canterbury. Most impressive were the very generous plates of their crispy and succulent Signature Premium Fried Chicken with flavours like sweet and spicy, teriyaki and chimichurri. Keeping the Mexican flair with that Korean twist the tacos are definitely one to order. Our favourite were the Bulgogi and Spicy Pork which were absolutely mouthwatering. For something to share (or not) get a serving of the Kimchi Bulgogi Fries and top them off with a round of Vecino’s impressive selection of cocktails (try the Fiery Skull). All in all a really great place for a feed and cheeky bevvy. Highly recommended! 2hungryguys.com.au

  I went here at 6pm on a Sunday night and it wasn’t too busy. We ordered the kimchi burrito and garlic honey fried chicken. It was a good deal to share between two people. The chicken had a strong garlic taste which I loved, maybe too strong for some, and the burritos are nice and hot! I would definitely come back again

  Vecino is a Korean – Mexican fusion restaurant located on the fringes of the Inner West in Canterbury. The eye catching decor of tap wear and hanging ferns was created by the owners to represent their Korean background and Australian lifestyle.Vecino has become a popular destination for unique tacos, fried chicken and creative cocktails – and also because their dishes look incredible!We visited Vecino by invite and ordered: Honey Cream Chicken Tacos – these were a yummy way to start and one of the highlights of our meal. Bulgogi and Kimchi load fries with mexican additions of cheese, sour cream and a spicy hot sauce. Fried chicken – We tried two flavours, Rosemary Honey Garlic and Sweet Chilli. The Sweet Chilli Chicken was the best of these two, I would order this again in a heartbeat.Visit Vecino to find the ultimate fried chicken and an insane cocktail list – it’s well worth a visit. westernsydneyfoodblog.com

  This Korean-Mexican fusion idea is a sound one, but it works best when they really go all-in for the fusion aspect, such as the moreish honey prawn tacos. Curiously, the fried chicken was a little darker than normal, and we weren’t sure whether it was from the spices or because the chicken was fried for too long, although it still tasted great. The kimchi bulgogi fries are a good idea as well as there is the mix of spicy, sweet, sour, salty, and crunchy.If you have a hankering for Korean food or Mexican food and can’t decide between the two, Vecino is a good option. forkingaroundsydney.blogspot.com
