Hot Tamale is known in Darwin and for good reason: They have excellent food and delicious cocktails (and they produce some of the best bartenders in the NT). We have the Street Food Platter that was a mountain of food for $70, price sounds somewhat steep, but it is worth every penny. Each dish was delicious and made from high quality ingredients. There was more than enough food for two hungry adults. We enjoyed tasti... View all feedback.

This place is worth the price service is trash, food is worse 10 out of 10 wouldn't recommend.
If i could give 5 negative stars i would. firstly, we came in and the lights were off, pitch black and my friend fell over and tore her ligaments after having surgery and stitches a few hours prior, see photo evidence. secondly, we have been threatened that they will call the supervisors. we were confused as to why thirdly, the pepsi was flat. furthermore, the cleaning station was exposed, but it took them about half an hour to clean one table. additionally, they only provided pepsi, the red lemonade wasn't red and the water was warm. Lastly, the music was way, way too loud giving myself and others a migraine and we couldn't t have a humane conversation. oh also, the seating was made for giants, too low. and, they keep watching us, it reminds me of a past childhood trauma. overall
Not really Mexican food at this place i got really disappointed with every meal i got ! Drinks are good .
On the Darwin waterfront this is definitely the place to stop by. So my friends and I pulled in to Darwin and took part in a cultural event hosted by Australia. We decided to make Kalua Pig as an entree to serve but due to customs restrictions we had to have locally sourced food options. In comes Hot Tamale, the manager who I believe her name may have been Stephanie helped us through our ordeal. We came in for a few drinks and told her our dilemma, after listening and serving us cold drinks to put out sorrows to rest, she started giving us food options that her kitchen could provide us with to make our cultural event a success. After bringing out taste plates of different options, we decided that Hot Tamale would make a pulled pork which we ordered for the next day. In preparation for our event we needed to get a few things from the grocery store down the way and sure enough she was there buying serving pans to house our needs! We are truly grateful for all the help this restaurant has provided us, and it goes without saying that our event was successful. 10/10 would always come here when I am in town!
Nice waterfront place with terrace and bar stools. Great for a few drinks with a view. Had a few snacks that weren't bad, but did not blow us away either.
