Food was great even though we had take out. Will be coming back for a more in-depth tasting experience. The burritos are authentic to how they do them in Mexico. Meaning fork and knife required for consumption.

I frequent this superb place from time to time because I love the special air that is characterizes this restaurant. The team is exceptionally loving and skilfull. The service is extraordinarily efficient. Not to mention, the food they cook is first-rate. I frequent often and I was never disappointed. The expense is fair. I recommend this place to all my friends.

If I could give this restaurant 0 stars I would. My family ordered takeout burritos expecting a quality meal. As I was eating I made the shocking and disturbing discovery of a metal shaving of substantial size encased in the burrito. Not only is this a gross and negligent lack of safety standards from the kitchen staff, this is a reckless endangerment of public health. This speaks volumes about the restaurants lack care for customer safety. An integral standards to be demanded from any business selling food. I am deeply disappointed and will never be returning. If you value your health, don't eat here!

I ate here four days ago and I haven't stopped thinking about it .... I had a burrito - my partner ordered on my behalf so I don't know the name of it but it had tender shrimp inside and was so flavourful. Beware of the spicy sauce though if you're on the fence of whether to go medium or hot ... I can handle spice but WOW that hot sauce!! ?My partner had tacos and was equally impressed.We had chips and guac to start, and it was some of the freshest I've ever had.We originally ordered to take away but when we saw the gorgeous patio we decided to stay - even in the chilly fall evening it was worth sitting outside. The staff had no issue with letting us have our takeaway picnic outside instead, and even served it for us.Not many table inside atm due to COVID distancing, so bring a jacket and sit outside.This place is the real deal. I intend to become a regular. :)

Really enjoy this place. Their fajitas are amazing. The food is authentic and they're a neighbourhood staple.

This place serves authentic, tasty Mexican food with amazing service. The pescado tacos are a must-try. And the enchiladas were heavenly. Chase these down with a couple refreshing Pina Coladas and Coronas and you'll feel like royalty. You can taste the love and passion that goes into the food. Fresh ingredients and you leave quite satisfied! The patio is beautiful and super cozy. It is located in the back of the restaurant - gives you some privacy and has some beautiful music. Highly recommend this place!

last night was the first time we came to that excellent restaurant. But It is definitely not the last time. We enjoyed the evening a lot with the good service, with the finest dishes and wine and with the decent charge. We will absolutely visit there soon.

I go to this nice place quite a bit! This is my favorite place to grab a bite. I visit this place at least once a month. The food is fantastic, the staff is friendly and the prices are good. I enjoy going in this spot for a decent supper.

The food was good and the menu was very authentic. However, the service was below average. Although the girl was nice, she was extremely forgetful, she forgot to bring drinks and it took a long time. I evaluated the area , there were only 8 people in there. Also our dirty plates were on our table the whole duration of our stay ,I’m not sure if that’s cuz of Covid or what.

I actually liked their food and service, great area very close to my residence. The staff members are always very friendly. Will visit here again.

I'm rounding up to a 4 star but I'd probably give 3.5-3.75 stars if I'm honest. We tried calling in advance for pick up and I suppose they were too busy and therefore didn't answer any of the calls. We all ordered the Burrito el Ricon because we were very hungry, some of us ordered steak and some of us ordered chicken, and they did not have a couple of the appetizers that we wanted to order. They were a decent size meal, but for 2 Burritos and 1 Jarrito with a small tip it came to $50 which is a bit pricy in my opinion.

Had an enjoyable time in their back patio, service comes with a side of attitude though

I would eat their house made chorizo empanadas every day! Comes with a small platter of other items - not always necessary but definitely appreciated. The salad it comes with is also surprisingly good for a little mixed green salad. Definitely a favourite go to spot!
