Burrito Imperial

We ordered burrito, food had no taste, and no flavor. We got sick, had stomach pain and nausea from their food. Would be good to call a health inspector to check the restaurant to not get other people sick.

We live near by this place, I would say the rent here is quite expensive as I've seen many different stores open and close in that strip of buildings, which is probably why the food costs a little more. The price isn't any different than other places on Bloor Street, the people on here complaining about it probably don't order from restaurants on the street often. The food is great, I always enjoy the flavor and haven't eaten anything bad from here yet. Lovely owners, I haven't heard them yelling at each other before, it is a family run and owned business so even if they speak to each other differently that other places that's why. Great place, check it out for yourself.

Ordered an imperial burrito that was supposed to have carnitas, pastor and chorizo. It was 99% rice and 1% meat and I don’t even think they put the 3 meats. The rice was even flavorless as well…I paid $30 and I honestly felt robbed. For that price I would expect a lot of meat and flavor! I highly do not recommend.

A hidden gem just outside the second high park subway entrance. Hidden is an dish called sopes which is delicious, and non spicy ( unless you want them to be). For $7 dollars you can order one . They come 7 different types , chicken , pork , fish, beef, ground pork, veggie, shrimp). Super delicious , and 1 will fill you up. A secret menu item , as you will not find it on the menu. The real good stuff is hidden in popular imperial section in Spanish words , however there is slow cooked lamb , beef stew, clear soup, and other date worthy dishes there. Don't glaze over it, you can google the words to find out which is which. Seating is nice comfy mini couches that are great for a date . The place looks a little bare , but actually nice. You can get really good mazapan like dessert for $1 , which is super good. As the place is also a Mexican Latin store as well for snacks. Honestly some of the best food which is hidden. The host is very good, and the plates and cutlery is beautiful stone wear.

The service was fast and the food was better than I've tasted in other Mexican places. It has a very authentic feel and they sell local Mexican knick knacks.

I live in the neighborhood and, as someone with gluten and dairy allergies, I was thrilled about the opening of Burrito Imperial, a much-needed addition to an area dominated by Italian pasta and sushi options. I ordered the Fish Tacos (Mexican style - no cheese, no sour cream), a side of beans, and Pico de Gallo. My friend got the Burrito Bowl with a mix of three meats, and her son had a boiled egg, rice with mushrooms, and cheese (they had a high chair, which was great. They also gave us paper and pencils to entertain my friend's 1-year-old). Everything was amazing! I absolutely loved the Jamaica drink; it's very authentic and super healthy, made from boiled hibiscus flowers. It's tart, a bit sweet, very refreshing, and only $5.50. My friend and her son had Horchata (rice milk with cinnamon) and a Lemonade. And we shared Guac with Nachos, Flan Napolitano(has dairy), and Churros(has gluten)—so good! The atmosphere was great! We loved the Mexican music, the friendly and attentive staff, and the view is amazing. Another plus is that the High Park subway station is just around the corner. Highly recommend!

This is a Mexican restaurant with very good food. I've been there twice and have received very good service. What I liked the most were the chilaquiles with carne asada. I was also able to order café de olla, which I hadn't had in a long time and is hard to find in Toronto. I will definitely go again

We went for dinner on Sat 8 June, less than a fortnight after their opening. We tried the first breakfast on the menu and the first burrito on the menu. The Burrito Imperial was tasty. If they lowered the price substantially they'd be more competitive -- note that Chipotle and FreshWest offer a similar (not identical) product for 50% less money, at better locations (near Atrium on Bay) and with greater selection. The 'Imperial I' breakfast was good except for the potatoes which had an unfinished texture. Possibly the plant was picked too young to be able to properly crisp up in the kitchen. Our server was polite and friendly, but would benefit from further training. We suggest new staff shadow experienced team members and watch training videos, if they aren't already. We're excited by Burrito Imperial, see a lot of potential, and appreciate their hard work.
