Restaurantji's Whitehorse recommendations for the finest Mexican cuisine.
“The food was definitely a 5 star for us. We had the cauliflower Tahini bowl and the chicken sandwich, and both were very special dishes. I really appreciate the inclusion of house pickled vegetables in both. It is one of the pricier places in town but I think that can be justified by the quality of the food.The atmosphere is of course pretty cool, being connected to the Lumel Studios. Though our table being directly beside the washroom was perhaps a bit of a turn off.The service is for us where experience fell short. There was nothing particularly friendly or warm about our greeting at the restaurant. After our food was dropped we were mostly forgotten about. No one came to check how we liked our dishes after our first few bites. And when our entire jug of water runs dry and we sit without beverage for several minutes, that's a big no-no for us. Having to get up to ask the staff for water greatly detracts from the experience.Still, the back of house is definitely creating some real magic and it was a privilege to get to try their food.“
“Definitely my favourite place in town to get a quesadilla, though the actual restaurant is a bit out of the way so I don't tend to go in there (usually DoorDashing it). But, when I was in the neighbourhood and popped in, the service is nice. The restaurant is a bit small and they could use an upgrade in the seating department but honestly, I don't mind so much when they have such tasty quesadillas.“
“Honestly, this place has an amazing ambiance, very insta worthy, and the service is awesome. I left the Yukon to take a job in Calgary and when I returned 10 months later, the waiter not only remembered me but also remembered my "usual". And I honestly do recommend the Pollos Asada tacos. Only thing I wish were better were the price. $30 for three tacos and a drink seems a bit obscene.“
