13 Best Tex-Mex Restaurants in Toronto

“One of the best bars in the city low key. One of the better spots on King St for a pint, with a great happy hour on top. Staff couldn’t be more on point! Didn’t even want to write a review as I’ve been gatekeeping the place but service is so good I felt I had to.“

“LOVE this place! The most delicious burrittos I've ever had! AND had to take 1/2 of them home as they were so filling. I had the shrimp while my friend had the smoked lamb and we shared them. Both were excellent. We loved sitting at the window table and watching everyone on College St. walk by with their dogs. Also $10 for a glass of Prosecco!?! Bargain! Decent prices and great service and atmosphere. We will be back. PS. Great place to hang out before a show at The Royal Theatre literally steps away.“

“I tried the Veggie Pattie Burger at Grillies for the first time and it was absolutely delicious! The flavors were fresh and perfectly balanced. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, making the whole experience even better. A special thanks to Deep and Srita for providing outstanding customer service – they truly went above and beyond. Highly recommend Grillies if you’re looking for tasty food and great service!“

“Excellent Mexican tomato soup. Recommend👍“

“I recently bought a bowl, the flavours and taste was nice and it was fairly filling. The only downside was the packaging which really needs improvement. My cover fell out (it's a very loose for on the bowl) and some of the sauce spilled out. In addition the paper bowl gets soggy really quick so be aware.“

“I got a steak burrito with quinoa here on Friday and the food was delicious, the employee was super nice, and there's plenty of clean space to sit, relax, and enjoy a meal. Also, I had the burrito with the burrito sauce, recommend it as it tasted really good together“

“Great nachos, friendly staff and fair prices. can tell the place has a lot of history and soul. Was a bit miffed they took my empty plastic cup at the door from the Blue Jays game, but it was waiting for us when we left.“

“Absolutely Amazing Experience!

I had an incredible time at BarBurrito! The food was fresh, flavourful, and perfectly prepared — every bite was delicious. What really made the experience stand out, though, was the staff. They were friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming from the moment I walked in. You can tell they care about what they do and go the extra mile to make sure you’re happy. It’s rare to find such great service and energy these days. I’ll definitely be coming back again — highly recommend!“

“Wonderful experience at BarBurrito in Cambridge today! Lovely lady and fresh delicious lunch! Thank you! 🙏🏻 ❤️“

The staff were friendly and quick with service too. Definitely a great spot if you're craving something tasty and satisfying. Highly recommend!“

“Food is awesome. One of my favorite Mexican restaurants.“

“It was my first time at the Roses Social when we went there for the Cinco de Mayo brunch event. It was already a full house when we arrived and there was a queue of guests waiting to be seated. The atmosphere was very lively while a Mariachi band was playing. We started our fiesta with their curated cocktails made with luxury tequila—Don Julio 1942. We had Roses Paloma and Flower Child which were both refreshing and had the right kick in lieu of the festivities. For the food, we went straight for the mains and then shared a dessert which was good for two people. *MAINS* LOBSTER and SHRIMP ROLL It was such a flavour heaven but not overpowering thanks to the Chipotle aioli. There was a generous amount of lobster in the sandwich and the bread that was used was delicious in its own right. PANCAKES SUPREME The pancakes were light, fluffy, and perfectly tangy, with the ricotta adding a creamy richness that balanced beautifully with the citrus. The berry compote added a burst of sweetness and tartness that complemented each bite, while the Chantilly cream melted delicately into the stack. A sprinkle of granola on top brought the perfect crunch, making each mouthful a delightful mix of textures and flavors. STEAK and EGGS The perfectly cooked golden yolks added a creamy contrast to the savoury steak done the best way possible: Medium rare. Together, the combination is simple yet deeply satisfying. *DESSERT* CAST IRON COOKIE It's a fusion of warm chocolate chip brownie and salted caramel, perfectly balanced by a scoop of creamy vegan vanilla ice cream. Each bite delivers a rich variation of textures and flavors that’s both indulgent and comforting.“

“It seems that the chicken quality is back to being excellent. I stopped coming here because my last few visits a few months ago were disappointing; the chicken was often burned or extremely dry. However, I decided to return and give it one last try, and I’m so happy I did. The chicken is now top-notch—always fresh and juicy. My girlfriend is also pleased with the current quality. I hope you don’t revert to the old ways. It looks like you’ve hired the right person in the kitchen. My girlfriend and I will definitely be coming back every week now.“
