El Columpio St Kilda

Sunset views right on Jacka Boulevard—killer mezcal in hand. El Columpio delivers that breezy, open-air St Kilda energy paired with seriously punchy coastal Mexican. Taco purists will point you straight toward the suadero—rich, slow-cooked beef that hits every savory note—or the fresh calamar. The pro move? The Mar y Tierra taco. It’s a non-negotiable order, built on an earthy blue corn tortilla and spiked with a fiery chiltepin sauce that commands attention. Agave hounds are all over the mezcal selection, pouring the perfect smoky pairing for a massive seafood tower. While the sprawling menu can occasionally fluctuate, sticking to these heavy hitters guarantees a brilliant feed. Unbeatable beachside atmosphere, stellar music, and proper salsa—just grab a table by the water and let the afternoon slip away.
