Gonzo's is a brand-new restaurant serving Mexican, Texan and Tex-Mex specialties. Its first location is in Lotte Mall Kuningan, slightly hidden behind Ranch Market. It doubles up as the first Margarita bar in Jakarta.
The theme is Mexican but I don't think it was the objective of the owners to recreate Mexico in Jakarta. It is colorful and friendly, yet simple. Gonzo's caters to a mall crowd who needs a fun place for meeting/hanging out. They serve mostly popular dishes like Burritos, Fajitas, Steaks, Tacos, Quesadillas, etc, not fine dining Mexican food (see Full Menu).
As such, they are reasonably-priced, especially if you benefit from one of their promotions (Free Tacos on Monday, Free Burritos on Wednesdays -> see their facebook). Actually, when we visited we were expecting small portions as the prices weren't that high. We ended up with so much food I had to call a friend to help us finish.

We tried the burritos, tacos, quesadillas and enchiladas. The taste was great, just as good as any of the most famous Mexican restaurants in Jakarta. I regret we didn't go for one of their grilled meat "Texas favorites" though. I also recommend you their Margaritas, you get 1 free for each you buy from 5pm to 8pm.
Gonzo's is right next to the new bar/club Revolution too so it's a good place to go to for pre-party snacks and drinks.
