Walking in, we were greeted and serviced by Chris who had a great attitude and enthusiasm, adding to the overall charm. Ordered the Pina Colada to start and it was quite alcoholic, which I'm not complaining about especially given it's a Mexican restaurant. Paired with the house chips and salsa, and when we asked for spicy Mexican salsa they were happy to provide it. Ordered the tacos with chorizo and the Tabasco combo with a chicken enchilada and beef burrito. The burrito definitely tasted better than the enchilada but still enjoyed the dish overall. Overall a very enjoyable stop and reasonably priced, absolutely recommended if you're looking for something other than Main Street eats.

They're quick to tell a joke and welcome you inside the restaurant with a ¡Bienvenidos a nuestra casa! Best staff! They make you feel like one of the family! It was a delight to my ears to hear Spanish language being spoken. It was also a delight to listen to the vibrant music played inside the establishment. So many great songs. I heard a Rodrigo Amarante song being played, followed by popular hit songs. From sizzling fajitas, to mouth watering enchiladas, their menu celebrates Mexico's rich culinary heritage. The tortilla chips and salsa were fresh. They charge extra if you ask for another serving. The chicken chimichanga and the chicken* (and beef) enchiladas suizas were great. They were served with rice, refried beans and salad. The pozole was big enough to have as a main dish. It was a fiesta of flavours! Nestled in the heart of Port Perry, this restaurant is a gathering place where friends and families can create lasting memories.

It's not a huge menu, but enough to satisfy the hunger. It's like tapas / small plates. The waiter explained that you order dishes individually, and there's no discount for an order of (let's say), 3. And we wanted to try a variety anyway, so it was win-win. It's not a huge place, but not too small, either. It's cozy. As you walk in, the full bar is on the right. Several tables around the rest of the space. At least 3 wait staff and a greeter. They even offer Jarritos! We were here for our 40th wedding anniversary. Everybody started with adult libations, and we ordered chips and guac to start. Then the real deal: chicken tacos, vegetarian, fish tacos, and shrimp tacos. One of us ordered pulled pork. They bring them out of the kitchen one at a time, so that none get cold... and they all get devoured! Ok, I admit I was hungry!! I look forward to going back!!

Best Mexican restaurant I've been to in a while. The…read moreservice was great and don't forgot to leave with one of their bottles of in house habenero oil. They don't take reservations but you can get on their online waitlist. All their food was amazing. We got the tuna tostada, chorizo and octopus tostada, elote, one of each type of taco, and the tres leches. We also got the mezcalita sour, which was the best sour we've had in a while. Unfortunately the tres leches was pretty bad. It was so dry and topped with way too much whipped cream to make up for it. But you really can't go wrong with any main course dish. My favorites were both the tostadas and the shrimp taco. The shrimp is cooked so well and every single bite is tender.

A few dishes feature their fish-of-the-day, which was pickerel for the ceviche and tacos during our…read moresummer visit. Marinated and cured in an acid of lime and tomatoes, the fish takes on a pink hue in the ceviche ($16) and has the taste of a lighter Arctic char. It's wonderfully fresh, either by itself or scooped onto a crispy thin tortilla chip, the citrus acid nicely balanced with a hint of heat. The starter just needed more salt. In fact, all their dishes need more seasoning. Perhaps El Pueblito is trying to respect an ingredient's natural flavours or cater to Bracebridge's older demographic, but everything needed an extra hit of salt to finish the dish - maybe they should just leave some at each table. The same pickerel tasted completely different in the fish tacos ($20), once lightly grilled and topped with pineapple salsa. Since the fish isn't deep fried and there's not a typical slaw topping, the tacos are soft; I wish there was a crunchy element to provide textural interest - even some finely chopped bell peppers and red onion would be great. Still, the tacos were tasty - the corn tortillas chewy and fresh, and the spicy mayo and tomatillo salsa great condiments for the dish. The refried beans were rich and smooth, lovely on its own or smooshed into the rice. The grains get even better once you add in consommé and chopped onions (from the birria tacos). In the end, the fish tacos are a little soft but at least they're not messy to eat. Consequently, the complete opposite experience of having a birria taco ($20). Stuffed with beef and deep fried, these arrive blistering hot and need to be wrapped in a tissue to dunk. Having seen many people have the dish at food trucks, it's a wonder how anyone isn't covered in consommé and grease without a proper table and dishware. If you're ordering these, it's best not to wear white. The slowly cooked beef was plentiful and tender, but because under seasoned meat and consommé, we couldn't help feel that the birrias were missing something. I was waiting for a flavourful explosion to erupt, only to be met with a slow-moving stream of lava. The flavours improved once we added tons of the raw onion, cilantro, and avocado into the crispy hot taco, a few sparks in the lava stream. Saving room for churros ($10 for 6) is essential. When our server asked us whether we wanted six or ten of the pastries, I thought it must be a rehearsed question as why would two people need more than six? One bite into the hot hollow logs of fried dough and we were hooked. Dusted with cinnamon sugar they were already delicious, but a dunk into a creamy thick not-overly-sweet caramel and the dessert was absolutely sublime. Yeah, so maybe we could have devoured ten.
