Best South American Restaurants in Epping

I hosted my birthday here with a large group and couldn’t recommend more. The food, ambience, the service, everything was beautiful and I will be coming back for more.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ What an absolutely incredible experience! ❤️ We visited to celebrate my husband’s birthday, and honestly, we couldn’t have asked for a better evening! From the moment we arrived, everything was wonderful. A very special thank you to Lorena and Ganeev, who looked after us so beautifully throughout the night. They were incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, always checking in to make sure we were enjoying ourselves and that everything was perfect. As a Colombian married to an Indian, we absolutely LOVED the fusion of flavours and cultures! The food was simply outstanding, full of flavour, beautifully prepared, and genuinely exceeded our expectations. We were also lucky enough to visit on a Saturday, so we got to enjoy the live music, which made the atmosphere even more magical! We left with full hearts, happy tummies, and the biggest smiles. Everything, from the food and service to the music and atmosphere, was absolutely fantastic. We’re already so excited about the upcoming Diwali celebration! If this experience was anything to go by, we just know it’s going to be spectacular! ✨ Thank you for making such a special occasion even more memorable. We can’t wait to come back! ❤️

What a great atmosphere service was amazing very polite food wow so good worth visiting will definitely be back.

After the disappointment of our lunch being cancelled a few weeks back, we finally found time to come in for the express lunch - & it was very much worth it. We were both so impressed with the quality of the food for the price. Really delicious! And just to add to our enjoyment our wait person Maisie was absolutely delightful - attentive, knowledgeable & a pleasure to deal with. Also a shout out to Kieran who had followed up with me to ensure we rebooked. Thank you to the chef & staff - we’ll be back!

Absolutely loved our first experience at Bar Mercado! We went for the seven-course menu and every dish was fantastic — amazing flavours, great presentation and such a well-thought-out experience. The service was warm and attentive, and the extra dishes and dessert options were such a lovely touch. Everything genuinely exceeded our expectations. Congratulations to the team on one amazing year! 🎉 You’ve created something really special in the Melbourne CBD. Can’t wait to come back!
