Got a small taco salad with chicken and a bottle of water, totaled to $22 CAD. They made the shell and one can see that process happening while standing at the counter. The chicken lacked flavor. They have a variety of toppings to choose from. After I paid, I had to tell the cashier to give me my water because she stared into nowhere after I paid for a few seconds. read more

The lady working behind was very rude and she mixed up my order. She said it was our fault and did not fix. Food was not good as well.

Had the taco salad bowl - both filling, tasty, and healthy. Great portion sizes for the cost. My favourite spot on Granville Island for lunch read more

Fresh, tasty food with great portions and fair prices. The taco salad bowl, burrito wrap with lots of pork, chips, salsa, and guacamole were all delicious, with a crispy homemade shell. Friendly service. One of our favourite lunch spots on Granville Island, highly recommend stopping by. read more

If I could give this spot more than 5 stars I would. I should have taken a before pic but all I have left is the aftermath. Hubs and I each got 2 tacos, his was beef I had chicken, we each added cheese. I had cilantro and pico on mine he had pico on the side and we each got the cilantro crème on the side. And shared a side of rice and beans. Those tacos were scarfed in a matter of minutes. I'm seriously looking around for other things to dip in the crème it's so good. In addition to being delicious food, the service was great. It's a walk up order set up, they make it as you order it. The staff was friendly and efficient. Very happy with our first experience. We'll definitely be back! Update, we came back the next day on our way out of town. The 2nd pic is the before of the tacos :) read more

After walking around Granville Island for a few hours, I needed a burrito of some sort. Saw this at the food court section of the market and decided this should hit the spot. Everything seemed like it was cooked fresh, local and somewhat affordable. I decided to get your average, everyday, wet chicken burrito. I was pretty hungry so I scarfed it down pretty quickly. It was ok, nothing special about it with chicken with rice & beans inside of a burrito shell. A light, warm salsa sauce on top was ok too. Comes with a dollop of sour cream and some pico de gallo. Overall, it was just ok. Staff didn't speak much after taking your order, but whatever, it's loud in there and I have bad hearing. read more

We had the taco salad several times and it's the best. The shell is homemade and it's crispy and light. The filling is tasty and it's the best I've had. The taco chips, the salsa and quocomole is delish so so good. I'm pretty sure everything is good. It's one of our favourites. read more

I like the taco salad here, price is reasonable for 8 bucks includes all the fixings, yes, guacamole included. I like it, simple, and affordable. read more

Okay I lied, I thought there wasn't a taco salad in Vancouver except at Craft, but I stand corrected. Pay half price and come to La Tortilleria ~ They also sell the taco shells on their own for $1 each if you want to bring them back to your home. read more

The spot has relatively good food and i have stopped here a few times on my lunch break, however this one lady who works there gives off horrible vibes. I believe I overheard that her name is BJ, and if you've been here you know who i'm talking about. It's not a huge restaurant so the sound echos, and i've heard her treat other employees poorly before. Went to pick up some food the other day and I heard her screaming at someone so I decided to go eat somewhere else. Imagine listening to a white lady raising her voice and being rude towards her POC employees in a condescending manner while you're ordering your food, not fun. HR definitely needs to investigate this place. It has potential but needs major change. BJ needs to improve her customer service skills and approachability if she is going to manage and work in customer service! link for instructions on how to launch a formal complaint for belittling and harassment in the workplace: https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/careers-myhr/all-employees/working-with-others/address-issue/launch-a-formal-complaint read more

It's sad that is not possible to give this place has zero as it's the most heinous gentrification of Mexican food. First of all, it's name is literally 'the place that makes tortillas" and there's nothing remotely close to that happening here as they pull generic wheat tortillas out of a bag and make bland overpriced burritos or bowls. If you're of Mexican descent, for the love of God never eat here as your Abuela will beat you from beyond the grave for the indignity that you've been served. If you went to a place called the Waffle House and they toasted a couple eggo's in front of you it would be reasonable that you'd be rightfully pissed. This is the same but with tortillas.

I was at the market and wanted a snack. La Tortilleria looked promising so I decided to give it a shot. I ordered a small beef taco salad. It was the only thing I ordered and it came out to $8 after tax. The tortilla bowl had a nice crunch to it and didn't taste too oily. The ingredients were very fresh. The beef was good but I wish that there had been a little more of it. I loved the guacamole, salsa, and the generous dollop of sour cream. I often find the taste of cilantro is too overpowering in fresh salsa but that wasn't the case here. I realize that eating at Granville Island comes at a premium but $8 is a little too much for the size of the salad. read more

11 bucks for a small salad is pretty expensive to be honest.. but it was delicious and I love that you could eat the bowl too!! read more

Had lunch here today and ordered the Chicken Burrito with black beans.... YUM YUM YUM! the salsa was fresh and the sour cream was pilled high. I was pleasantly surprised both at the portion size and the taste of the food. I don't think we needed to order the mexi fries but I get soooo excited around mexican food I just cant help but over indulge. The woman behind the counter was pleasant and quick.. two things I look for in fast food. two thumbs up from this yelper! read more

I had the pulled pork tacos. The roasting chicken and everything made the place look very promising but the tacos were smothered in salsa and hot sauce and I tasted nothing else. The meat could have been chicken, or pork, or beef, or anything. I did appreciate them hearing the tortillas up before making the taco. But just not that good. read more

I ordered the tacos today at La Tortilleria! I wanted to try the cauliflower, but also wanted meat. Unfortunately, you can't mix and match meat and vegetarian options, but you can the meats. So I decided to do one chicken and one pork instead. The corn shells were good and thick, which helped because the meat made the tacos a little runny. The chicken was my favorite; that one seemed more flavorful. I added black beans, tomatoes, and lettuce to my tacos - they seemed to skimp a little on the add ons, but not terribly so. For $7 CAD, it wasn't a bad little lunch. Next time, I'd probably get a side or grab something else from a Granville Island vendor to compliment it, as I did get hungry not long after I ate. Anyway, overall it was an a-ok experience, and I'd eat there again. read more

I had the Chicken Burrito - covered in sauce, with sour cream, lettuce, and tomatoes on the side. I have to say: it was pleasant! The portion was generous, and it wasn't terribly expensive ($9.00, no tax). I'd recommend coming here, but it was a quite busy. Apart from that, the service was decent, and the food was good. read more

This is my 2nd time ordering their ranchero & it is well worth the $5.50 (tax included) you pay, very inexpensive considering it's located in Granville Island. The lady behind the counter had a smile when greeting me...thumbs up in my books. read more

Visiting Vancouver, we had to stop at Granville Island and walk around for a few hours. I looked online before coming at the restaurant options and I saw they had taco salads. I had been craving a salad for a few days and thought, for the price, I couldn't go wrong with La Tortilleria. I got the big taco salad with chicken for $13 and, the sign was right, it's the size for if you're "really hungry". I almost couldn't finish all of it because there was so much. It came with black beans, chicken, lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, guacamole, and I added onions and jalapenos for no additional cost. The jalapenos were minced but I was looking for spice rather than crunch this time, and they're easier to mix in. We went on a Monday afternoon and it was very busy inside so we couldn't find seating. However, it wasn't raining outside so we enjoyed the outside seating and atmosphere. There were lots of birds around (don't feed them) but they never tried to steal anyone's food while we were there. read more

I'm not one for fast food but having a busy lifestyle one can not always have the luxury of making home made lunches everyday. Luckily I work on the beautiful Granville Island and have a plethora of fantastic places to choose from on my lunch breaks. La Tortilleria is a usual spot for me to get a promptly made taco salad at an affordable price and made from fresh ingredients. The chicken they use is roasted and soaks in its own juices, the salsa and guacamole is made fresh everyday and super flavorful. Definitely good bang for your buck and a healthier fast food option. read more

Visited Granville island today and had a craving for Mexican. Overall the food was acceptable for a fast food place. Food: I had a chicken burrito and it cost around $9 I think. The size was decent, and I are everything but the last bite. Unfortunately, everything is done very production line style with limited ingredients. Coming from Southern California, I am spoiled regarding having access to delicious Mexican food. However, this was worse than the chain restaurant Chipotle by quite a bit. Ambiance: food court atmosphere, not much more to say... Recommendation: would I to back? Nope. Would I recommend? If you have a bad craving for Mexican and are at the farmer's market area, sure. Otherwise, don't go out of your way for it. read more

Lots of options to choose from at Granville Island in the food court. Had taco plate yesterday here and decided to try it again today. The large taco salad with pork was excellent The bowl was big and freshly deep fried here, all the toppings fresh, multiple choices for salsas and sauces. Excellent flavor on the pork. Average price for Vancouver, $11-$15 for the large taco salad depending on your choice of Filling. read more

Good thing the majority of the customers that comment are not chefs . Tall the poor revenues are the same everywhere they eat...

Nachos in the sun whilst watching people and boats, feeling the salty mist in your hair. What's not to love?? The food is your average hole-in-the-mall Mexican stuff. Not too traditional. But filling and a good value for Granville Island. read more

Today is Cinco de Mayp and service was great and cheerful!! Delicious food as usual, love the taco salads and enchiladas!!

After living in Southern California for few years, I've found it really, really hard to find decent Mexican food anywhere else That being said, considering how they are far from the Mexican food capital of the world (LA/SD, CA) they are pretty good... Really good when compared to other major food vendors in the Granville Island Public Market food court ... but it's not something I would go out of the way to try & taste read more

I've been going here for a long time and the food is pretty decent for fast food Mexican. Wish I could say the same about the service. The woman serving (brunette, full body figured) proceeded to talk to the man who was in line AFTER my kids and I, asking him what he would like, prior to finishing my order because she knew him. When I had to interrupt their conversation to ask questions, she acted annoyed and basically passed off my order to the next woman behind the counter. Rude. read more

Unique taco place, but expensive, messy and the portions are small. Beef burritos were heavy on filler, light on the beef. Expected more.

I had a craving for Mexican and came here. This was before the Elite event as I wanted something decently healthy. It is very $$$. $4.50 for a single taco! For fast food taco? I can get a gourmet taco in the city for $3 or less (see my Yelp Mexican list). Of course no one put a gun to my head and it was the healthiest option at the time. I got the bean taco which was nothing more than flavorless black beans from a can, some cheese and that is it....this is what $4.50 buys you. Customer service was okay, however, I could tell from the look on the girls face that she would rather be elsewhere. Tourist trap for sure. read more

I was there today I ordered chicken burrito and instead they gave me Beans Burrito. Horrible i feel sick right now. I will never ever go there again. Chubby lady there is The worst doesn't even listen. read more

Been here a few times before. Food isn't bad at all. Unfortunately the service constantly is. There is a bigger, blond woman who works there and is consistently grumpy. This visit prompted my review. As I was lining up, I wasn't ready to order and allowed the customers behind me to order. When I was ready, she rudely yelled, "line up is back at the end." When I mentioned I had allowed someone behind me to go, all she did was smirk, didn't apologize, or even ask for my order. There are better places to eat and be treated than here. Don't let this place ruin your day with a visit. read more

Very rude service, I tried to order food and all I got was I rude reply that girl only take the money not order, well that is what I was trying to do pay for the food read more
