Wonderfully authentic Mexican food! The place could use a sprucing up and it was so busy they had trouble keeping track of our orders but service was with a smile... Portions are small so order lots!

I adore Mexican food - but it’s hard to find good Mexican outside Mexico. How we, not here. This continues to be the best Mexican food I’ve ever had outside Mexico and the staff are so delightful, it makes this resto experience pretty much perfect!

I have to be honest my first impression was not great. The seats are not very comfortable and they use plastic plates for the appetiser. But the ambiance is maybe trying to reflect a diner in Mexico. The food was delicious. The fish tacos were really good. The guacamole was fresh and very tasty. The tamales were outstanding. If you like spicy ask for their green spicy salsa it’s very nice. We also enjoyed the chipotle salsa, it has a nice smokey flavour without too much heat. It’s going on our regular rotation list for sure.

A medican friend recommended this place to me and was he ever right to do so! This is the best Mexican food I've had outside of Mexico.

Ok food. Friendly staff and service. A bit too expensive for the offering (even with the Fork discount included).
