Delicious meal at this authentic Mexican restaurant. We had a great time. Enjoyed our meal. We ordered the sopa de tortilla, tacos Dorados & enchiladas en salsa verde. If you like Mexican food, this is definitely a place to try out.View more

The nachos are almost too good. Get them with carnitas. The chilaquiles & horchatas are also super tasty!View more

Service was quick & food was delicious. The habanero sauce hit the spot. Not overly spicy with a nice heat.View more

Very good food. But the place is dirty & poorly managed & maintained. Even staff expressed frustration with the lack of efforts from the manager to finish their renovations & clean the place properly. To waste their good reputation with such negligence is sad. They were more cautious about their place when they opened their first restaurant on Montreal road. They should know that here, what you show at the front is a sign of how careful you are in the kitchen. I'll wait before going again. I was very disappointed by such neglect. Patrons eating on-site deserve just a little bit more care.View more

Two stars is not enough because I didn't totally dislike it. Close though. The artfully applied mole sauce & crema couldn't disguise the fact that the enchiladas contained only a small amount of somewhat dry chicken. The accompanying mashed black beans & rice was tasty enough. The thin metal plate the meal came on might be fine for the restaurant's kitchen oven but it quickly loses its heat. The meal was cold halfway through eating. Sitting near the window, I noticed that the windows lacked any finishing trim. Started looking around & saw that the whole restaurant lacked any sort of baseboard trim. On one wall, an electrical outlet protruded onto the floor with some conduit coming out the wall. Online photos are misleading. They show a colourful interior. Apparently these are from the previous location. Current look is dull concrete gray with almost no decoration. No liquor license yet $7 for a 0% Corona. Check your bill carefully before paying. An extra entree was added to ours. Bottom line. Not worth the visit.View more

Love the food absolutely. Can the service be better, for sure! Recently went & the waitresses were pretty busy with the orders for pickup . But didnt even bother to come to our table until my wife went & asked for menu cards after 8 mins. There was 1 only other table occupied other than ours. After that it was smooth. Also, this is the second time we had an experience like this here. Would definitely appreciate better service.View more

Burrito is the size of a large potato. You tell me if you think that's worth 15 plus tax..View more
