Calle Rey is a Mexican cantina and bar in Australia offering a plant-based menu inspired by Mexican and Peruvian fusion cuisine alongside non-vegan dishes since 2025. It features sharing plates, tacos, and a tasting menu available on select days, with highlights including vegan 'chicken' and prawn-style dishes, and a well-regarded cocktail program specializing in tequila and Peruvian pisco. The atmosphere is casual and friendly with bar-style seating, and recent reviews praise the generous portions and flavorful vegan options, though some note the pricing is mid-range and there are occasional issues with saltiness or menu complexity.
