Dropped in for a quick lunch break. Server was very pleasant and directed me to a nice window table. I ordered a shrimp and chicken wrap which was delicious with the perfect seasoning. A must try.

I followed the light, and it took me to taco heaven. No really, the big lights..purple, pink. I'm glad I did!
Chips and salsa served while you wait. Lots of food and drink variety! The margaritas were delicious. The staff working, were fun and friendly. I stopped by close to close, and they didn't rush me out. I'm craving their food already! It was hard to choose what to order!

Best Mexican spot in Nanaimo for a vegan. Very accommodating, and they have good Mexican food overall too, friend liked the shrimp.

Brilliant! Sangria. Ceviche. Churros. All perfectly prepared and presented. Quite a gem in a slightly run down part of town.

Food was really good, told waitress I liked it spicy and she made sure to bring out a whole bunch of hot sauces! Had the fish tacos made gluten free with corn tacos and house salad. Meal was amazing, and THAT SALAD DRESSING- OMG! Partner had the Chipotle dinner, he really enjoyed it! Service was really good, waitress really knew all the dishes when we had questions and was very friendly. Will be back again soon!

Great food and atmosphere. Had the beef burrito and topped off with a local IPA via White Sails Brewing - the Mount Benson. Let’s say it’s all good and come on in for a try. Staff was great and attentive. Views in back room was nice to have while there. ?

On a scale from one restaurant Gina's gets a 3...Beans were dry and unflavored...My daughter's meal was not worth the price we paid...Not authentic and not recommended

The restaurant has a cool little vibe. Service wasn't bad. Food was so bland and did not taste like authentic Mexican food. I had flautas, corn, refried beans and a grilled chicken soft taco. Beans were very old tasting, flautas were not good, and the grilled chicken tasted like rotisserie chicken from the grocery store. The chips and dip they give you for free just tasted like no name tortilla chips. Rating the whole experience 4/10. Would not go back again if I'm ever visiting Nanaimo again.
