Instagrammable if that's your thing. Food is ok - nothing special about it and overpriced.

Food is.. okay. But $12 for 2 onion rings is disrespectful. Wouldn’t come back for food.

We went here for my dad’s 70th birthday, I had accidentally booked the wrong number of seats and knowing how new and busy they were I called frantically about changing the reso last minute. They were so nice and very accommodating and were able to make it work (I think we got the best table in the house!)
Besides that, the food & drinks were OUTSTANDING (we got like 3/4 of the menu - the duck was unreal). The service was so good, she was knowledgable and put up with my old mans bad jokes. I can’t recall her name but she had nice red hair and she was 10/10.

From the time we walked in (early for our resos) to the time we left, the servers were engaging, attentive and had great suggestions. The food was next level. The flavors were nothing I've had before and we will def be back!
The space used to be a cute little coffee shop and this establishment has done great with it.

Just visited this lovely spot and was super impressed! The food was very good and different than your standard “Canadian Mexican” food which was a nice change. Our server, Kurtis, was so so lovely and helped us out a lot without being over bearing in the slightest.
Highly recommend the Lamb Shank Barria! Super tender and tasted unbelievable. Also recommend the crab flautas!
Was on the pricier side, but well worth it for the food and atmosphere.

The menu and food is definitely unexpected and unique. But our server was fabulous at explaining everything, making recommendations and helping with any diet concerns. Everything had fabulous flavours and unique combinations. There wasn’t one dish we didn’t love. The sauces that come with the tacos are amazing and there was plenty of food for everybody. We even got to try the desserts that were so unique and really good. Flautas with crab were our favourite. Ceviche was excellent. And you have to try the cabbage and “corn smut” tacos :)
Vegetarian options: There wasn’t as many vegetarian options as we would have liked. But we managed to find a few good ones
Dietary restrictions: Most items were gluten free! Easy eating for our group

Food, service and drinks were on point. Same standard, although more casual, than sister restos Bar Susu and Published. All in all a welcomed addition to the neighborhood!

Not your avg Mexican restaurant. Food is elevated. Cocktails were delicious and unique. Service was friendly. Another amazing restaurant/bar by the crew that blessed us with Bar Susu & Published on Main.

Cute space and nice staff. Unfortunately my experience with food was not good, portions are petit and expensive. I ordered chicken cowboy, Beef Rib barbacoa, chicken skin “chilaquiles” and something with chicharron de la ramos. Tortillas were cold and crunchy as left in the table with the tacos order. Cocktails were super sugary, the chicken was very dry on the outside and cold inside. Beef Rib was more grease than actual edible meat. Not fine dinning more like a botanero. Más tortillas menos microgreens

Ordered the "corn bread", pork jowl, lamb birria taco and two drinks for two people. Overall I think the flavours were decent but overpriced for the portions.
Pork jowl tasted good but felt like the sauce overpowered the pork itself and you only get 4 pieces.
The corn "bread" was more like a corn pudding in texture but flavours were good.
Lamb birrira tacos were decent, maybe a bit pricey for what it is and you only get 6 tacos. You can order extra for $1 each but I feel like for the price they should give more tacos.
Drinks (Poloma and Melon) were okay. Strong, but melon one was a bit too sweet.
