Amore Mexican Tapas & Bar in Phuket Town is a small, cozy spot serving authentic Mexican food with real attention to detail — from classic flavor pairings to the right level of heat and proper serving temperature. Inside, you’ll find a relaxed vibe, good music, and strong air-conditioning, making it a comfortable place to escape the daytime heat and enjoy an unhurried dinner.

The menu focuses on Mexican staples: chicken nachos with crisp chips, quesadillas, tacos (standouts include steak, pork, shrimp, and the refried-beans version), enchiladas, burritos, chili con carne, and a beef chimichanga. There are also meat-free dishes such as stuffed sweet peppers, plus vegetarian and gluten-free options. The staff are knowledgeable about dietary restrictions and happy to help you choose; you can also specify your tortilla preference (corn or wheat).

The bar is another strong point. Their margaritas and mojitos are well-balanced, and the large-format and “for two” cocktails are genuinely generous. Wine is available as well. A nice extra touch is a complimentary dessert — often something like crème brûlée or panna cotta.

Seating is limited, so you may run into a short wait during peak hours. Prices can be a bit above average, but the portions are filling and generally reflect the quality of both the food and the drinks.
