About Greedy Gringo

Set right across from Bulcock Beach, Greedy Gringo pairs massive Cal-Mex plates with upbeat house music and ocean air. It is loud, vibrant, and built for sharing over iced tequila. The kitchen turns out hefty burritos, loaded platters of beef nachos, and tacos that cover everything from charred cactus to battered fish. Diners frequently flag the sheer scale of the portions—even a single plate easily anchors two people. Plant-based crowds do not get sidelined either, with vegan swaps available across the entire menu. Grab a booth beneath the hand-painted murals or head outside for happy hour jalapeño-pineapple margaritas and spicy Cali burritos packed tight with seasoned fries.

  • Substantial Shareable Plates: Hefty burritos, taco plates, and towering nachos arrive in portions comfortably split among groups.
  • Full Vegan Adaptations: The entire menu offers dedicated plant-based adaptations alongside gluten-free options.
  • High-Energy Coastal Atmosphere: Happy hour margaritas pour alongside upbeat house and rave-style soundtracks right by Bulcock Beach.

Before you head over

Practical advice for sharing portions, choosing table seating, and navigating dietary swaps.

  • Plan to Share Plates

    Portions are notably generous, with burrito and nachos sizes easily large enough to split across multiple diners rather than ordering individual mains.

  • Pick Your Sound Level

    Inside seating features energetic, high-volume house music that may challenge intimate conversations; sit outside if you want quieter ocean views.

  • Customise for Dietary Needs

    Plant-based diners can order across the full menu with vegan substitute options, and staff readily accommodate gluten-free requests.
