About

Our Restaurant

Mexican food at 43 Macrossan St has had a long and colourful history.

From Chief’s, back in the early 90’s to Tortilla’s Cucina Mexicana through the early 2000’s the style of food changed, the people changed, even the big ol’ cactus out front passed away. 🙁

However, one thing remained the same…the Port Douglas local’s have always called it The Mexican… And now we are actually called The Mexican!

The Mexican – Port Douglas was founded in 2015 by Husband/Wife team Sarah and Jon Lovett. They pride themselves on their love for this region and have many years of local and international hospitality experience.

Sarah, Jon and The Mexican team are always excited to try something new, go out on a limb and bring a little casual funk to the Port Douglas dining scene.

So, come on down grab one of our famous Classic Margaritas and try some of the best Mexican food Australia has on offer. We love it & we hope you will too. 

PLEASE NOTE: Our maximum table size is 12 people.
