A great little piece of Mexico right here in Newy. This business has been operating for decades in a town that’s known as a test market. Products are launched here in Newcastle because of the honestly of the locals, they know good value when they see it, so if a product doesn’t work here in Newcastle it won’t work anywhere. So to last 30 years proves they have the right formula. Some great options like 2 for 1 combo night on Mondays, Taco Tuesday etc. Try the red Sangria too!

With mexican food being more readily available in Newcastle, nothing beats one of the og restaurants serving mexican food. Muchos Mexican has been a staple for mexican food for people in Newcastle with its quite personal relaxed atmosphere and great food it's worth going in for a visit.

2 x Mums needing a well deserved mid-week catch up, threw caution to the wind, and randomly turned up at Muchos The Junction, last night.I reckon it’s been over a decade since I’d dined here.So many fond memories of nights out in my 20’s, which began at Muchos, came rushing back. The atmosphere was cosy, brightly coloured, and still slightly dimly lit, just how I remembered it.The red wine sangria was the bomb and our Tuesday night, half price Nachos were delicious!We requested extra chilli, and that just even further enhanced them.The service was sincere and attentive.I can’t believe I left it that long between Nachos.We’ll find way to fit this place into our rotation, and being the whole family next time!!YumYumYum

Went there last night. The margaritas were cheap and flavorful. The best drink to try is the slammer. Always start with the Queso or the Guacamole. I had the chilli con carne. Would definitely have again! Nice and helpful staff.
