About Gringo - North Van

Gringo in North Van is a super fun spot with a great patio and cheap margaritas. The restaurant features bright neon lights, colorful décor, and 80s–90s tunes, creating a perfect vibe for a chill night out. The food offers a unique take on Mexican cuisine, serving real good gringo-style comfort food. There is plenty of variety, including vegetarian options like tofu or rice and beans. The tacos, especially the fish taco, are loved for their delicious taste, and the Special Bean bowls and three types of tacos to try at once add to the exciting menu. The staff, including a notably energetic server named Sasha, are friendly and helpful, contributing to a fantastic experience. While some diners have noted mixed experiences with service, the overall vibe remains great. The atmosphere can be quite loud, making conversation difficult for some, but those who enjoy vibrant music may find it enjoyable. Although there have been occasional concerns about dry meats in tacos and drinks being watered down, the staff has handled these issues well. The churros are a must for dessert, and the patio offers a view of Vancouver and the waterfront. Overall, Gringo is a promising new spot in Lower Lonsdale, with amazing deals during the week, making it worth a visit in the future.
