Taco Bill Forest Hill: 13 Mahoneys Road, Forest Hill
Grievous Bodily Charm and Glenn O'Mac are just back from Forest Hill - the very first stop on the Taco Bill Tour of Victoria! So, how was it?
The Basics:
We were greeted promptly and politely by our waitress Amy (whose sunny disposition did not wane at any point throughout the course of our visit).
The Mesa was clean and, importantly, featured Birthday Club forms and a range of menus and assorted paraphernalia.
Salsa and corn chip dip was promptly provided by Amy before our collective bums hit our Sillias!
The Order:
Glenn O'Mac ordered the 'Enchilada Nuevo Mexico' and a VB stubbie, while Grievous Bodily Charm decided upon the 'Burritos - Supremo' and a Carlton Cold beer.
Our host Amy opened the blind at the 12 minute mark giving Glenn O'Mac the excuse he'd been waiting for to wear his sunglasses inside.
The Food:
Of his meal, Grievous Bodily Charm's remarked that it was "Delicious, but I ate it waaaay too quickly".
Glenn O'Mac finished his meal about 8 minutes later. "A bit mild in the chilli stakes, will have to ask for the extra spiceee next time".
Amy was attentive throughout and provided outstanding service and didn't linger like some table staff have a habit of doing.
The Verdict
Main Meals:
Glenn O'Mac: 3 / 4.5 Taco Shells
Grievous Bodily Charm: 6.4 / 8 Taco Shells
Hot Chocolate:
Alas, this was the only real let-down of the experience.
Grievous Bodily Charm: A bit too watery. The marshmallows tried to save it but couldn't. 1.5 / 5 Cocoa Beans
Glenn O'Mac: Confused with tepid bath water. -0.5 / 6 Cocoa Beans
Des[ite the "Mexappointing" hot chocolate, the food and service at Forest Hill was outstanding! Amy was happy to verify our visit by signing off Forest Hill from our t-shirts and posed for a photo.
To Amy and the kitchen staff at Forest Hill we say Muchas gracias por todo! . Grievous Bodily Charm will be sending a copy of the photo to the Forest Hill restaurant as a thank-you for their great efforts.
Staff Quote - Amy: "Taco Bill is Mexcellent!"
Keep an eye out for our next location!
May the Taco Be With You,
Grievous Bodily Charm & Glenn O'Mac xoxo

Nice review - but please, don't say stuff like 'Mexcellent' or 'Mexappointing' when we are out together in the future......
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment Nick. Alas, the term 'Mexcellent' is proudly displayed on the staff apparel. However, as a compromise I will try not to make as many spelling errors next time and, furthermore, extend to you an invitation to accompany us on our (date yet to be confirmed) visit to the South Melbourne Taco Bill restaurant.
