We ordered the tacos, the quesadilla and the burrito and I can honestly say they were all fresh and flavourful, with just the perfect amount of spices. Being from Los Angeles, I am used to good Mexican food, and this was better than any Mexican restaurant I have ever been to. We also had the flan, which was done just perfectly. Not too sweet and perfectly firm and moist. If you want authentic Mexican food in Helsinki, look no further than Casa Chipotle.

I told my husband to see if the door was open to this restaurant, Pueblo, and it was! They were super close to closing and were gracious enough to let us order take away. Both gentlemen were super friendly and we had a great conversation with them while we waited. They had jarritos (Mexican drink) which are always a win, and we ordered tacos. The shrimp was seasoned to perfection- and the carnitas had a tiny bit of spice that really elevated the flavor. The tortillas are made fresh in house and the guacamole was also super fresh. TLDR: you should come try it out! I highly recommend!

The menu includes enough for a vegetarian to be fed, and the corn tortillas and salsas are made fresh daily. They also have a well stocked bar and a nice cocktail menu to match. My family stopped in for lunch one quiet afternoon. We all ordered tacos, and were so glad to see that an order of at least three tacos included sides of rice and beans. The rice was a-ok, but the beans were delicious and had us all asking for the final few bites. There honestly wasn't a bad bite for any of us. I hadn't expected to find tasty Mexican food in Finland, but Helsinki is filled with an amazing array of cultures and cuisines. Pueblo was just the beginning of a wonderful few days of adventure, and we could not have picked a better place to start if we'd tried. I highly recommend the. Cauliflower tacos along with a Longboard Lager, and don't be slow to order extra tortillas and salsa, because they are truly special.

Folks, that is over an hour. 3 (THREE) people were hanging out just gossiping. One guy turns to me, says just one word: "closed".

The space is welcoming and despite the packed room and fairly barren walls they managed to keep the sound level low enough for people to easily carry-on a conversation. Staff are friendly albeit a bit stressed but not so that it bothered me. They have a fairly interesting wine list, with a lot of variety and fairly many wines by the glass (for example four different sparkling wines by the glass). The beer selection is also good with many interesting options and the cocktails impress as well. What was a disappointment was however the non-alcoholic selection- 2 beers and sodas. No cocktails, ciders or other interesting stuff and the beers were not really that exciting. Food is meant to be shared and that was what we did. Great and plentiful edamame with ginger, soy and lemongrass sauce was very nice. The empanadas were ok and the sauce saved the dish. The zucchini tempura was fresh and the sauce was r a good fit. The highlight was however the short ribs, plenty of food and really tender and juicy with the right flavors. A bit messy to eat but good. The churros for dessert are better skipped, not bad but also not worth it.

It must have been that one because it tasted way fishier than the other two ceviches we had. Our last day (Sunday) in Helsinki was ruined, and a hellish flight home awaited. Also, it took three days in total to get well enought to return to normal routine/work. Otherwise the staff was super friendly and the rest of the food was ok. The Pimientos De Padrón could have used some salt, because there was none, and the fried potatoes tasted/looked like standard restaurant fries except the sauce. We emailed Pastor about the food poisoning, but all we got was excuses and zero understanding. We'll probably never return to this restaurant because of that.
