Review summary

Updated on July 2026
  • Flavour: Some found the dish mild and suggested adding chilli, garlic, or a chipotle-style sour cream to boost the overall flavour.
  • Ease of prep: The recipe comes together quickly and is straightforward to follow, making it a great weeknight option.
  • Suggestions: A few customers recommended mixing kewpie mayo or a splash of extra white wine vinegar through the slaw to add creaminess and acidity. Cooking the prawns in garlic rather than butter was also suggested for more depth.
  • Portions: Some felt the prawn quantity was on the lighter side relative to the slaw, leaving the tacos feeling a little unbalanced.
