About South Of The Wall
Richmond amigos say hola to Mexican fare and Margaritas at South Of The Wall on Cremorne Street. This fun, funky cocktail bar and restaurant oozes a laidback vibe, with worn brick walls adorned with colourful Talavera pottery, polished concrete floors, mosaic tiles and vibrant blue seating, celebrating all things south of the border. With a tequila in hand, take a seat alfresco under the watchful gaze of Donald Trump peering over the frontier wall and choose from a menu bursting with a fiesta of flavours, like spice-rubbed grilled prawn tacos, with salsa fresca, crema and herbs. Be tempted by slow-cooked mole lamb ribs, charred chilli salsa and black hot sauce mayo, with a side of sweet potato fries; finishing indulgently with house churros, choccy sauce, cinnamon sugar and vanilla bean.
