My friend and I got takeout from this Mexican place as we had heard AMAZING things about their food. They definitely surpassed our expectations! This Mexican restaurant was featured on BlogTO so it was extremely busy when we went to pick up our food! All of the tables were full and more people were waiting. I’d highly recommend getting a reservation if possible! The staff were prompt and helpful with getting our order. We got the Beef Birria Tacos served with sides of Carne Asada and Beef Consommé. They were ABSOLUTELY HEAVENLY! The beef was so tender, the tacos were soft and the veggies inside were fresh. Some of the best tacos I’ve ever had! We also got their 4-Cheese Quesadillas which came with a Sriracha Mayo to dip. Cheesy, rich, filling, and absolutely satisfying. The dip gave a spicy kick to cut through the richness. For dessert we got their freshly fried churros which came with a caramel sauce. They were crispy, covered in sugar and absolutely divine. The portions were all very generous and easily sharable! I can’t wait to come back and try more of their food. This restaurant has some of the best Mexican in Toronto!

Food was absolutely delicious! Prices are very reasonable and the service was top tier! Sal is so friendly and inviting and lovely to chat with! Will be back again for sure! Also allergen friendly, no nuts or shellfish in the kitchen 💕

A delightful meal! Excellent friendly, warm and prompt service from servers & bartenders Sal & Sophie... was served the most wonderful plate of enchiladas I've had in Toronto (had to take a picture after devouring one because it was just so good). I ordered them w the nopales filling - so flavourful and juicy - just stunning! And the best margarita in the city to boot!!

Loved the Quesabirria and the tres leches. The person managing everything was really sweet too. The birria was one of the best I’ve had. Accidentally stumbled upon it and so glad we did

Delicious food. Might be the best churros I've ever had. Place is always busy and I can see why. My new favourite Mexican restaurant in the neighbourhood.

Great service, great food, and great place!!!!Authentic Mexican cuisine!! Great tequila and mezcal selection. The staff know what they're talking about when it comes to taste of the tequilas and food. Margaritas are also delicious!?!

This place is quite new, having opened just two weeks ago. The staff were exceptionally friendly and seated us promptly, though the dining area was full, so we sat at the bar, which was perfectly fine. We started with the guacamole and chips. The chips were very deep-fried, and the guacamole was decent but tasted a bit store-bought. The standout dish was the Sexy Beef Birria. The beef was tender and flavorful, complemented perfectly by fresh cilantro and onions. The birria came with a side of delicious consommé, which is traditionally enjoyed after finishing the birria. The fish tacos were also excellent, featuring flaky fish with a crispy batter, crunchy coleslaw, pico de gallo, chipotle mayo salsa, and other fresh toppings. Overall, the food was impressive compared to many other taco spots in the city, and the prices were quite reasonable. I’ll definitely be back to explore more of the menu!

Cutest little Mexican bar with delicious food. Must try the birria tacos. Guacamole was yummy. Margaritas are probably the best you’ll have!
