The tortillas for the tacos were not good. They were really mushy and had a weird aftertaste. I got the cauliflower tacos and the sauce in those tacos made the tortilla even more soggy. The cauliflowers also lacked flavour.

I would not come back again.

Small portion for the price. Would not go back there.

Very nice place, with attentive staff and delicious dishes! The nachos made there are served warm and the sauces to spread on them are delicious! I recommend the made nachos!!

Por Vida is my favourite spot in Oakville. We love the authentic Mexican fare, incredible atmosphere (feels like a vacation) and the incredible staff. Every single person that works there is warm and caring, and provides top service. Thank you Por Vida and team for always making us feel welcome and cared for.

Well, our first time at the Bronte Mexican resto. I love Mexican food and the menu looked great, if a little confusing. The decor and atmosphere in the restaurant is top notch. The service was excellent. But the food, oh my, it's just OK for Me can food, not good, not bad, kind of dull. The portions are quite small but expensive, especially considering the portion size. I did like the calamari. I won't return. Not recommended.

Tried the AYCE tacos with a friend and it was quite satisfactory overall. Pretty good service, our waitress was often checking up on us at good times to make sure we were doing okay and always asked us if we needed anything else to order. The birria tacos were the best tacos next to the pork shoulder. My friend found the plants behind her (on the booth side) annoying as it was constantly poking her head!

Bathrooms were nice and clean, cute plates and cool decor. Awesome value overall. Would come again.

The service and atmosphere were good but food was just about ok. The trio dips were nice. Truffle one not so much. The chicken tacos are ok. Not fantastic. Not bad either. Expensive for the value.

Me and my wife planned to go to dinner here, I parked my car at the designated parking for the restaurant…before going to the restaurant quickly ran across the street to the vape store…Came back from the vape store 5 min later and my vehicle had been towed away. Had to pay $330 to get my vehicle back.

Called the restaurant and talked to the manger about the situation and have been waiting for a call back for 3 days now..

Apparently as per the tow truck driver.. if you park your car there and leave the premises for even a minute they will tow your car away.

Terrible experience!!!

Had a great time for my friends birthday. Our server, Nicole, was so sweet and helpful. I recommend the guac and steak tacos.

Such an amazing place for food and a good time🌮💃🏻My boyfriend and I went for their monday all-you-can-eat taco’s and were ecstatic to be there for mexican independence day! There was beautiful live music and delicious food! I think we tried every taco on the menu, it was so yummy! It was amazing to experience authentic mexican tacos along with being a part of the celebration! And the restaurant is beautiful with the stained glass! We want to give a special shoutout to server Antonio for having the best energy! We will be coming back🤩❤️

The staff are fantastic and the restaurant is decorated really well. I've had tacos all over the world and where the tacos I had here I was satisfied with, they did need a bit more punch in a few cases.

The chicken taco was fantastic and I really liked the hot sauce. The birria quesadilla Taco looked absolutely wonderful but I feel like someone in the kitchen forgot to season them as they were a little bland.

Don't take the above feedback as negative though, we really enjoyed our meal. The above feedback is only what it would have taken to push my 3 star food rating to a 4.

Would recommend dinner here!

Didn't have Cow Tongue taco that night ... 4 Stars. Service and Atmosphere was on point. The Mexican Mule could've added more ginger and tad more alcohol. Go on Monday ... all you can eat Tacos $35 (2024)🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮. Word of advice book ahead don't show up.

Beautiful place, delicious Mexican food, great tequila selection, and attentive service. It’s a bit expensive but nice restaurant and good portions.
We had a michelada, tequila cristalino, birria quesadillas, and campechano bowl. Total with tax + tip was just under $100.
The taco options are fantastic: birria, campechano, cochinita pibil, octopus, shrimp… we’ll be back to try other flavours and the churros.
