It was alright, the food was a bit cold and taco portions are small but overall it was ok, the tres leches cake was pretty good and the highlight of the meal.

The foods are great. Nacho has many salsa and very delicious. Tacos taste good and the fajita is absolutely amazing. But the price is a bit expensive. The tacos are pretty small and cost 15$ for every 5 tacos. Highly recommend fajita, the best food in my opinion.

My boyfriend and I enjoyed the food so much I forgot to take any pictures of it haha. The sauces were delicious. The tacos were simple yet flavourful. There was a man singing beautifully outside. The servers were very attentive and friendly. We ordered 1 order of the Al Pastor and 1 of the Lengua. Which was enough food for the two of us. Both were very good but I preferred the Al Pastor. I also ordered a Ojo Rojo which I really liked but warning it’s very salty and sour. And my boyfriend ordered the Jamaica homemade tea which he really liked. All in all it was a very good experience and I would go again.

Great place to grab a bite in Kensington Market! I ordered the 5 mix & match tacos which were delicious. We started off with Frozen Margaritas (lime, guava and strawberry were all great) with an added tequila popsicle which did not disappoint! Would definitely recommend!

What a wonderful spot for a simple date! Especially after a great day walking through the Kensington Market! The tacos were savoury and satisfying, and the guacamole was smooth and flavourful! We weren't disappointed at all. Our server was very friendly and patiently walked us through the menu. We'll definitely make this a regular stop whenever we come down this way...

I heard that this place has a real Mexican food and I expected more than the thing in real experience. We ordered homemade drinks and it was like a sweet drink and nothing especial. 🤷🏻‍♀️ so I wish I could write better about my experience but it wasn’t anything special 😐

This is an authentic Mexican restaurant. The atmosphere is great, the service is amazing, very warm and welcoming. I do feel like they still have to improve the food. I was disappointed by their pastor tacos, for a place called “el trompo” I had high expectations about their pastor, but it did not feel like it was actually cook on a trompo. Horchata was amazing, but their cafe de olla was tasteless, didn’t have any cinnamon or piloncillo notes, was just a watery coffee. I also didn’t like that they don’t let you mix your tacos, even if you offer to pay more. I wanted to try different flavour of tacos and they refused to mix them saying that it was already portion. I just want their quality of service to match their quality of food.

I tried their El Pastor tacos and it did not disappoint! This is certainly one of the better taco places here in Toronto. The atmosphere and vibe reminded me of my trip to Mexico. Will definitely come back!
