Beef Birria Tacos
Hank K.

I brought my mom to Comal y Canela because she hadn't had authentic taco before, so I thought Comal Y Canela, one of the best in Toronto would do the job. Oh boy, it sure delivered. The food is absolutely brilliant, fresh and delicious, although it was a bit pricy, which I think it was because I didn't order a platter to share (since I really want to have both birria tacos and gobernador tacos).

WOW what an amazing experience for Mexican food. It's so amazing that this place has halal options. This spot was quaint and felt super authentic. The service is so kind and attentive and the food get prepared so fast. The dishes are amazing and so flavourful! The Birria tacos were unbeatable. I would highly recommend this spot!

Came here on a Sunday afternoon with my boyfriend. Was quite busy, waited for approx 20 mins. Food- came here for the Birria tacos, flavourful and savory. Very filling!! The consommé was also very rich, and heart that complemented the tacos well. The 8 Birria tacos were a good amount for two people to share, and be full! Service-was good, but I could tell they were really busy and a little stressed/tired. They still did a great job, but could be a little bit more attentive. Parking - there's a lot that's right beside the restaurant.

The service is fast the food is made to order and the staff are very polite in explaining things if you don't understand. The ambiance seems very relaxed the restaurant has limited seating and is quite tight but they are expanding. The food is good really authentic and flavor full. I ordered this burrito for take out and it was good. The pricing is around $15-50

Delicious birria tacos! It comes with birria sauce on the side and the portions are pretty big. The restaurant is very nice but small.

This restaurant is an absolute gem! I've driven by it for years and finally decided to give it a shot. Woah! The food is amazing! The atmosphere is just so unique and makes you feel like you are in Mexico. The staff are so sweet, you can really tell they take pride in their work. A bit pricy but they give you great portions. This is authentic Mexican food and hospitality.

Order of 5 birria tacos with consommé. Ordered an extra consommé.

Ok but the hype is reallllll! I'm always on the hunt for birria tacos in Toronto but I'm not in the city often enough lol. However, from the ones I HAVE tried (Birria Catrina, Gus Tacos, Molkagtez) they don't even compare to the ones at Comel y Canela. I find where most establishments fail is the consommé. Not here tho. They excel EVERYwhere. The tacos are hella stuffed with meat and nicely lined melted cheese. You top it off yourself with cilantro, onions and or lime. But trust, you need ALL the fixings. I don't even like onions but you need them. The broth is...everything you would imagine a consommé should taste like. SO much flavour and SO many chunks of birria. It's not too runny and the broth costs the tacos nicely when you dunk them. They are hella busy and the establishment is mad small. We had to wait about 35 mins on a Sunday around 2:30 for a table for 2. Trust me though, it was worth the wait. They take your order before they put you on the waiting list, so your food is essentially ready as soon as you sit down. Super convenient and efficient! I really hope they plan on expanding to a larger space cuz I want to come here alllll the time! They would do so well with a patio too!

Overall: 4/5 Food: 4/5 - I felt like the birria tacos were really good, but were just lacking one extra ingredient or sauce. The gravy and taco together were awesome, but some sour cream or creamy sauce, would be perfect to me. Although, I do know that wouldn't be a traditional way to eat them, but just me. Service: 5/5 very friendly workers and really fast! Ambiance: 5/5 Not going to lie, this wasn't in the best area, but the vibe inside is so unique and cool, it really feels like being in Mexico again. Truly authentic and a cool vibe.

Birria Tacos (beef) $39.80 for 8 tacos - 9/10 *The must-try here!

Hidden gem of york area! It's one of the best places I've been to for the most authentic Mexican eats. They also have hahal options. Here's what we ordered: * Nachos $16.50 topped with diced smoked beef bacon +7.50 - 8/10 * Lime Jarritos drink and Fruit Punch Jarritos Drink $2.88 each - 8/10 * Gobernador Tacos (Shrimp) $22.60 for 3 - 8/10 * Birria Beef Stew $22.30 - 7/10 * Birria Tacos (beef) $39.80 for 8 tacos - 9/10 *The must-try here! We celebrated a friend's birthday here, and loved it. I recommend small groups or even just two people for this spot. The space is very small, can accommodate no more than 6 people. Servers are very friendly and quick. The decor and ambiance inside feels like I've been transported out of Toronto and into Mexican food haven. Will definitely be back!

Amazing. Literally. I'm not a huge Mexican food lover but this changed the game for me. I've tried am y places but this was the real deal. I had never enjoyed it as much as this. The service was wonderful and the food was absolutely delicious. I ordered the birria tacos and my cousin had ordered the taco mix and match and also the guacamole tortilla chips. All of these were delicious. We finished it all. Very small shop and not a lot of tables but worth the wait!

Juicy flavourful birria tacos. Best I've ever had. The broth was a bit salty and service was lacking a little

Chicken al pastor tacos, beef birria tacos
Susanna W.

Wow! I heard rave reviews about this taco place which is known for their birria tacos and man was I amazed. This style of beef tacos has a fried tortilla shell with cheese and and comes with onions and cilantro on the side. The star of the show however was the beef consommé that you dip the tacos in - with loads of meat inside and with all pure flavour and deliciousness. We also got an order of their chicken al pastor tacos which were also very delicious. We put in an online order and food was ready at the promised time. We hope to dine in next time instead of takeout to try out more of their menu.

Comal y Canela - Birria Tacos, simmered beef in crispy tacos along with dipping stew. Hot salsa sauce packed some good heat.

Catching on the trend of Birria Tacos! Comal Y Canela is hidden away within a plaza in a busy part of midtown. This is a tiny traditional Mexican kitchen that attracts many to try the best Birria Tacos in Toronto! It's the food that matters when coming for takeout. Birria Tacos include simmered beef in crispy tacos to dip in consommé. freshly-made tacos carry the grilled cheese & beef with birria stew. Dipping in consommé is even better as it's flavourful from hours of simmering with beef, onion & tomato. For a perfect finish, add salsa that's packed with decent heat! Look for the colourful floral exterior located in a tight strip plaza. There's no raging lines if you go early. Best to park on a side street. That way you'll be in & out for a quick taco run!

We came here for dinner on Thursday night and the place was actually very full. Their parking lot…read morewas very tiny, I was thinking how do people even get in and out of there because it was so compact. But there's a bunch of street parking and neighborhood parking by the restaurant. We got seated pretty quickly. Their menu is very large, it took us a while for us to decide on what to get and also to flag down a server. They had many large parties, even a birthday party on a weeknight which I understand. Also it's very spacious in there too, there's many tables for large parties and small ones. All the servers that took care of us were very friendly and helpful. I ordered four Carne Asada tacos and my boyfriend got the Chicken Fajitas with cheese on top. I also ordered a Pinada drink. The chips and salsa we had to start was good. The chips were crunchy, lightly seasoned, and crispy. It was fun trying out the different salsas to see what we liked the best. I enjoyed my Carne Asada tacos. Granted, I am from California and grew up with good Mexican food so I have very high standards. These tacos weren't the absolute best I've ever tasted, but they were tasty. Also for a single taco, it would've been $7. So seeing that much for a single taco was crazy to me, as I'm used to $4 (USD) ones. However, the carne asada meat was delicious. I think for me, I wish it had a little bit more onions and cilantro to give the overall dish more flavor. My Pinada drink was great. It was creamy, delicious, pretty much a Pina Colada without the alcohol. I loved it. All in all, we enjoyed our time here. For the area, this would be a solid choice to get authentic tacos and mexican food. As I said before, service was great. A little difficult to flag someone down given how busy it is, but they took care of us. I'd come back.

My favourite taco spot in Toronto! I came here with some friends and we got nachos and a platter of…read more20 tacos to share. The tacos are always juicy and tasty. My favourite tacos here are the sirloin and al pastor, but all of them are delicious. The horchata is also nice and refreshing. It's always crowded when I come on weeknights but I've never had to wait too long for a table. Parking is a bit tricky but there's some side streets nearby for street parking.
