Quite often this exchange rate is better than what you would get exchanging cash. This is another yes and no answer! If you are eating in a restaurant that caters for tourists then yes. However if you are in a more local place then probably not. You can normally tell if you are in a restaurant that caters for tourists as the waiter will speak in English to you and you will be offered a menu in English.
Almost all of the restaurants around the 5th Avenue will accept cards. We really hope this helps to answer all of your Mexican currency questions!

I have travelled to both Mexico, Cuba and quite a lot of other countries. I am currenttly in Mexico again. Once in the country I withdraw the local currency from the ATMs using my 28 degrees credit card, yes you pay ATM fees but it works for me as there is no converstion fee and no transaction fee from 28 Degrees there is an ATM fee which is 30 to 38 pesos right now.
The taxi ticket from Guadalajara airport is pesos to Centro Historico approx 20kms from the airport which is where I prefer to stay. This trip I have started to use Uber and have found it very good in Guadalajara, Mexico and not quite half the cost of a taxi. What I also like about Uber is money does not change hands, as it is charged to your credit card, you know the price before you accept the ride.
My assumption would be the same in Mexico City but as in any country you need to stay aware of your surroundings and assess your risks. Cuba is a very different story, I flew from Cancun and took Mexican pesos and exchanged a large quantity at the airport when I landed at the airport I roughly calculated what I would need for the whole time. They also exchange Canadian dollars at the sirport, the exchange rate for Canadian dollars may be better than the Euro but you would then have to do the math for the exchange from the Canadian or Euro to the Cuban currency, they will not change AUD in Cuba.
As you may have read there is two currencies in Cuba, the tourist and the local currency. I changed a bulk of money into the tourist pesos and then managed to get some local pesos later in the trip. I did manage to take money out using my 28 degrees credit card and also using my normal Bankwest ATM card, it has a Mastercard logo on it and I treated it like a credit card.
With Cuba it is only Havana that I would try to withdraw money. It is not a normal bank that you need to go to, there are special money changing places, for want of a better name. They are not located in the main street. I hope this information helps you plan your trip, and have a great time. If you have not travelled much all I can say is accept that you are not travelling in Australia, so leave your standards and expectations at home, and embrace the differences.
If you are going to travel to Mexico it's ideal that you use Mexican pesos. You might struggle with other types of currency. What we do is that we make sure that we authorize our cards at the bank so that we can use them in Mexico and if I need to get cash I just visit a local bank ATM as it pays you a higher rate for the peso than exchanging it at the local exchanges.
Most places you visit in mexico now take cards and they are more secure than carrying so much cash. Si te has hospedado en AirBnB o quieres comprar comida vegetariana, vegana, Gluten o Sugar Free, te recomiendo que busques cualquiera de las siguientes tiendas: Walmart, Chedahui, Superama y Soriana, siempre tienen una zona especial para todos los gustos. About vegetarian or vegan food options in Mexico City will depend on where you stay and what kind of accommodation you have, for example: The countess, the North Rome, the South Rome, the Valley, Coyoacan and Polanco areas, I'm sure you'll find more than one easy choice to eat.
