    The tacos are delicious, and a good range of appetizers and drinks to choose from. Everything is reasonably prices and the service is very friendly! In the summers they have a great patio - love the area too!

    Loved the food! The two vegan tacos with broccoli and Brussels sprouts were delicious! The two vegetarian dishes were so flavourful as well! I would definitely recommend for someone vegan or vegetarian. Service and ambiance were good as well.

    They have a cute and cozy side patio that we chose to sit in. Their food menu is divided to "Tacos" and "Not Tacos". We ordered "Chorizo, Cotija & Pork Belly Nachos" for appetizer and Margaritas for drink. I enjoyed my drink a lot since I love Tequila. For entrée, we ordered "Fish Taco" and "Beef Cheek Taco". Fish taco was amazing and very delicious; I strongly recommend it. If I go there again, I will order 10 Fish Tacos with Margarita and nothing else! Lol!

    This is a cute little Mexican restaurant in downtown Burlington. There are a lot of public lots (paid) that you can park at nearby or you can chance the street as well. We were here for a super late lunch or early dinner depending on how you want to look at a 3pm meal. There were only a few tables here at the time so you shouldn't have a problem getting seated. We opted to sit on the patio which is located in an alleyway next to the restaurant. It is shaded and there's a low fence that separates you from the sidewalk so it's a nice little oasis there. A must order here is actually one of the desserts - the waffle churros are really good. They aren't deep fried like a churro would be but they're a great imitation and possibly a bit healthier too! We were there as a quad and ordered 2 which was the perfect portion size.

    Super good. Probably some of the best tacos in the GTA... that's all I have to say. Yeah.

    We were able to call ahead and get some seats on the patio. It was a humid day and from where we were sitting there wasn't much airflow so it got slightly uncomfortable. The tacos here are good but none of the dishes we had were mind blowing. All the tacos seemed fresh. A good fish taco is usually our go to. I found that the batter wasn't as light and fluffy as other fish tacos I've had in the past, and because of this the density of the taco was on the heavier side. The slaw and radishes were a good compliment. The classic taco is probably something similar to something you could create at home. And the Achiote taco was okay. Nothing to write home about. The whitefish ceviche was good. There was a lot of citrus notes which I love, but I found the chips to be on the salty side. Based on our experience, I think If I were to return to Burlington I would like to try difference places and then maybe come back for another try once I've explored those.

    I am always looking for something different to try and sometime the locals love. Doesn't look like much walking by but i stopped in to give a try. I loved the vibe of the place, it was small but welcoming. They had the whole sugar skull and fiesta theme going on. I enjoy the authenticity vibe that Burro tacos had. The menu is small but done right, it gets straight to the point just tacos. Lol I ordered the Classic Taco, chipotle sweet potato taco and the cochinita pibil taco, each taco is priced individually which was great because I wanted to try different ones. I have to say the chipotle sweet potato taco was my favorite(surprising right?!)for me too- I mean really sweet potatoe in a taco definitely interesting. I am glad I tried it cause it was amazing. I loved there spin in the potatoe taco- it had. Shredded cabbage and chipotle sauce with some onions and the tortilla was perFectly cOoked everything was piled high. My second favorite waS the cochinita tacos it was packed with pork ,salsa pickled onions I believe but it was so delicious. The classic I wasn't feeeling to much tasted like a del taco. I have zero complaints if ur in town pop in. They have a drink menu too. If I am ever in town I would definitely go back. I think everyone should try this place forThemselves. They gained my business for sure. The place was clean and my server was great.

    Amazing place for date night! We enjoyed their Taste of Burlington special - app + 4 tacos + dessert for 2. We also got some drinks and an extra side of potato bravas which was delicious! The staff is extra attentive and super friendly which is always nice to see. Def check out this little gem in Burlington - come for the tacos, stay for the vibes

    A phenomenal little gem! Without a doubt, Burro Tacos has one of THE BEST tacos I have ever had. Upon a quick look at the menu, you will notice it is very simple with just a few items. They stay true to their name and stick to what they do best: tacos. There are no burritos, quesadillas, enchiladas, tamales, etc. Just tacos. There are however shared plates that consists of guacamole & chips, nachos, etc. The fish taco was AMAZING, I wish I had ordered more of it! The sweet potato and bacon taco were great as well, but not better than the fish taco. Service was excellent and friendly. Burro Tacos is definitely a place I would visit again without hesitation.

    The Classic | Fish | Brussel Sprout

    These tacos were pretty good and filling. My favourite was the fish taco, I wish I had gotten two of that one. The Brussels sprout one was way too salty for me but I'm also not a huge fan of Brussel sprouts so that may have influenced my opinion on that one. I definitely recommend the fish if you decide to go!

    Achiote Chicken tacos

    Excellent place for tacos and cocktails in Burlington. Small place with not a lot of seating. Today I had the holy frijoles, two achiote chicken tacos and a New York Sour cocktail (mezcal based) and everything was excellent. Thoroughly enjoyed my meal here and highly recommend

    We had come here at around 1:30 pm on a Friday afternoon. The place wasn't too busy at the time…read morehowever, there was a large party of about 15 people at the table behind us; it looked to be some sort of a work function. We were seated on the second level in a booth, which had the large window opened all of the way. There were three children and two adults in our party therefore, we were given both children and adult menus to order from. My son settled on the chicken fingers with fries, while my daughter chose the hamburger with fries. I decided on the avocado dip with nachos, although the dip wasn't really a dip, as it was chunkier than I had liked. The food took about 15 minutes to arrive, which wasn't too long however, the kids were a tad restless having to wait. Both of my children's dishes had a large amount of fries, with only a small amount of chicken strips and hamburger. My avocado dip had an overflow of nachos, yet not a lot of avocado. It also had too much onion, which made the dish taste strong. The service was good throughout our entire stay, with the server checking on us periodically to make sure that we were okay. The food was mediocre, and definitely not worth the price that we had paid. Overall, would most likely not return to this restaurant. To be honest, we only dined here as it was the closest to the movie theatre that we were at therefore, it wasn't our first choice initially.

    Amazing hamburgers, and great onion rings!!! Service was wonderful and the location is clean. We…read morewent for lunch, and I bet evenings the place is rocking!!!

They were incredibly fresh, a great size, and absolutely delicious. At $4 each they're definitely on the pricey side, but if you're planning a visit, Wednesday after 5 p.m. is the best time to go for their half-price oyster special. We also ordered the burrata paired with their focaccia bread, which was very good. While it wasn't the best burrata I've ever had, it was still a solid 4/5 and worth ordering. The bread alone was very tasty and fresh. The truffle parmesan fries were a bit of a letdown (3/5). They came topped with a very thick, mayo-based sauce that wasn't the most appetizing. I think I'd have enjoyed them much more if the sauce had been served on the side for dipping, but that's just my personal preference. The cocktails were a mixed bag. The Sunset Skies was easily our favourite and one I'd happily order again. Unfortunately, the High Noon wasn't for me--it had a very floral flavour that I found unpalatable. What really made the experience exceptional was the service. Our server was incredibly attentive and noticed that I hadn't touched my High Noon cocktail. Without hesitation, they offered to replace it with another drink of my choice and removed the original cocktail from our bill. That level of attentiveness and customer service really stood out. Overall, the food was enjoyable, the cocktails had a standout winner, and the service was outstanding. I'd definitely return, especially for the oysters on Wednesday evenings. Service was a 5/5.
