Came in for natchos and a margarita. Venue is straight up Mexican selling chips, hot sauces etc. Service was prompt. Unfortunately they do not have a liquor license. So we ended up with pineapple soda that was so sweet I couldn't drink it. We ordered the guacamole, which was great, but the chips were so hard we almost broke a tooth. Will come back sometime to try other menu items. read more

Stopped by Latin World to satisfy a bit of a Latin food craving and ended up here after checking out the quirky interior and laid-back vibe. Since I already had a pretty heavy meal earlier in the day, I decided to keep it light. Went with the Nopal Taco (the one with grilled cactus) and A La Mexicana, which is a shrimp dish cooked in salsa ranchera, served with rice and salad. Paired that with Inca Kola, which apparently tastes just like cream soda. To be honest, for a Saturday evening with nearly empty house and all that casual chaos, I didn't expect too much. But in a weird way, I actually enjoy that slightly offbeat, mismatched energy you often get at Latin spots. There's always something a little awkward going on, and I don't know why, but I kind of love that. Sure, the taco shell could've been better, and the server wasn't exactly on point with the drink availability. Could've also explained the dishes a bit more instead of just saying "I don't know", but hey, the food itself hit the spot. Would've liked a bit more kick in the seasoning, but at least the server was open to adjusting and didn't miss a thing once asked. Bonus point goes to the heart-shaped rice. No idea why that detail stuck with me, but it did. All in all, it's one of those places that might not check every box perfectly, but something about it makes you want to come back. read more

We got the shrimp ceviche a burrito and tacos The ceviche - I can make better as a white girl - way too much tomato juice - no salt no lime Tacos - I don't even know what meat they put into it honestly - not served with lime - no flavour at all no salt Burrito - no flavour no seasoning Came here as a last minute dinner and it was so disappointing. The lady serving us was carrying her child around on her hip while serving customers. read more

Latin World is hands down one of my favourite restaurants in Toronto. The $1 taco specials on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, (and I think Friday too) are such great value for absolutely delicious food. Honourable mention to the Beef Chimichanga that almost brought me to tears the first time I tried it. Food aside, the staff are always very nice and service is quick. They also let you purchase their homemade salsas if you ask. I always make a point to stop by whenever I'm in the area and I suggest everybody else to do the same. I love you Latin World! read more

One of the best burritos I've ever had. I was pretty drunk though! Nice staff but small atmosphere.

Pay your workers. Pay them properly. Pay them fairly. Pay them promptly. You're never going to get back to business unless your hard workers get paid. Shame, I have a craving for a Latin dish for dinner tonight... I'll be going elsewhere. read more

This is an amazing small restaurant in grocery store. I can't wait to visit the other locations after being greeted by the very friendly server we were informed at the restaurant was out of Carnitas tacos and instead they were serving chorizo. I was happy to order chorizo tacos for a dollar each and was extremely impressed by the free salt, collection, faster, free chips and honestly incredible flavour and quality of meat in these tacos. I can't wait to come back and try the other location and other daily specials. read more

Okay so let me preface this all by saying...im a chilli wuss, but I love flavour and will take the pain for the flavour. So ordered Chilequiles, one of my favourite comfort dishes, the portion was HUGE, and flavour definitely NOT mild...but it was quite delicious. Usually chilequiles are with chips and they absorb the sauce, their version was very wet so keep that in mind. I dont mind but I definitely would have preferred wore texture. The Tamale was drowned in cotija which was a bit of a bummer as i wanted to taste tje lamb barbacoa ($2 extra). Maybe im used to my tamales just more moist and flavour forward but this was all salt and chili so wont order again. Have had tamales all over Mexico and parts of latin america, this is not their strength. The Guacamole was DELICIOUS...seriously great batch with strong lime and nice sized chips. I think worth another try but maybe in person next time to gove it a fair shake! read more

I visited this restaurant last weekend with my fiancé. We were a bit confused at first because we saw that there were 2 Latin World restaurants right across from one another. However, the other was more of a small Mexican grocer with a few tables for a quick bite. We decided to go to the larger restaurant location since it was a larger space and had more comfortable seating. The restaurant was very colourful and lively, with Mexican music in the background. They also sold various gifts and souvenirs from Mexico. We each ordered one shrimp taco and one fish taco. They were served with traditional corn tortillas with onions, cilantro, and pico de gallo. Very authentic, and tasted just like the tacos you would get in Mexico. Both tasted great, but I preferred the fish taco. My only complaint was that there was very little protein. For almost $6 a taco, I would've expected more than 2 shrimps per taco... read more

Walking past this restaurant, we noticed a sign that said $1 tacos, so we thought why not check them out!? We went in and were told we could sit anywhere we liked, so we grabbed a table outside. The menu is only available by scanning the QR code (which we didn't notice) and details of the taco special were on the last page. It turns out there's a minimum of 20 tacos per person, which made zero sense to me. No way I'm eating 20 tacos! It was a beautiful sunny day and I was craving a beer, but they are not licensed so I stuck with water. Anyway, now that I'm craving tacos, I definitely have to order some! The regular price for one taco is almost $6 - which seemed high but I had to try them. We were starting to get super hungry and decided to order a bunch of things to share, starting with some ceviche and guacamole. The ceviche was very watery and almost warm, as though they cooked the seafood first, then dumped it in the sauce. Definitely not what I was expecting and I would not order that again. The guacamole was quite good - probably the best thing we ordered, actually. I liked that the chips are made in house (or at least appear to be). We were also given an order of chips and salsa, as well as a little dish of what looked like chili oil, which was way too spicy for me. The green salsa, on the other hand, was delicious! I could eat that every day. Next, we had a chorizo quesadilla, which arrived covered in lettuce and crumbled cheese - again, not what I was expecting, but it wasn't too bad. It was similar to a calzone, with a thick dough instead of a tortilla. Next up was a burrito and the tacos. I actually didn't try the burrito, but my friend said it was good. The tacos were really disappointing, unfortunately. We ordered the grilled shrimp, the pastor and baja fish. The shrimp was ok, but the pork was incredibly dry and crumbly. As for the baja fish taco, they forgot to finish it as it was garnished with just a single radish slice instead of the pico de gallo and salsa ranchero. I could add a disclaimer that I cannot speak to the authenticity of the food in any way, I can only comment on what I enjoy eating and how much I liked the food. Service was fine but there was only one server for the whole patio, so it was a bit slow. No other complaints from us regarding service. I don't think I'd go out of my way to go back here anytime soon, but if I was in the area, I might try something else on the menu. read more

This is the location across the street* The food was really good, they start by giving you some chips (looks like it's homemade) while you look at the menu/wait for your order. I really want to go back again to try their 1$ tacos. The only thing about this place is maybe the service is a little slow but everyone is really nice and friendly. read more

Two Different Reviews here: I've been a fan of Latin world since visiting last summer, when we went to the original store. Interesting selection of tacos as at very reasonable prices. Reminiscent of the best hole in the wall places in Mexico and the US. They have also opened a much larger sit down place across the street which a friend and I tried on Friday which the family had just opened. A much more extensive menu and lots of home made salsas to boot. Interesting selection of tacos again like Carnitas, Nopales and El Pastor. I also tried the Enchiladas. The food was .. okay but maybe they are working out teething issues. You still have to go across the street to pay. read more

Authentic, Latin-Owned restaurant with fantastic tacos and tortas. Chorizo tortas are generous, flavorful, and delicious. This is one of the few authentic Mexican restaurants in Toronto, and by far my favorite. 1$ tacos Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday at their store location across the street. Dine-in gets homemade chips and salsa! A Bloor West establishment. read more

Yo if you want to teleport to Mexico, this is your shop. This place is jam-packed with almost every Mexican grocery product you could want, plus they cook hot authentic Mexican food in the back for you. You have every snacky snack you want from chips to candy to cookies. They also have lots of spices, and bottled and canned products along with some fresh produce. I totally recommend this shop. read more

This Mexican place sells burritos, but as our server confessed, Mexicans don't actually eat them. So if you're here, try something more exciting! The food here has a very home-cooked feel. Complimentary tortilla chips (for dine in) were thick & crunchy & came with 3 spicy sauce. Our server was very proactive in refilling the tortilla chips - service here is great. Chilaquiles were tortilla pieces in a spicy sauce. The dish was very spicy but good, though the tortilla chips got soggy fast. Enchiladas verdes was quite similar to the chilaquiles actually, but less spicy and with rice instead of tortilla pieces. Huevos a la mexicana was scrambled eggs with beans and with a purple tortilla to wrap it all. All were ok. Pozole with chicken was chicken soup with Mexican corn. It was pretty good. The use of Mexican corn was nice and gave the soup more body than normal. Horchata (sweet rice drink) was a little dilute. Tres leches cake was good - very moist. Churros were pretty good but the chocolate sauce was thin. read more

Cheap, delicious and unique. Go to the location in the grocery store. Food came out quick and hot. Was delicious and will definitely be going back for the $1 tacos. read more

You know that moment when you're really craving something, and when you finally get it and it's awful? that's basically what my experience was at Latin World. I ordered 4 tacos (2 pastor & 2 carnitas) - $12 Walking home, I noticed that my container was awfully light, but was still optimistic. As soon as I arrived home, I opened the container and there they were, 4 tacos that looked dilapidated in every kind of way. I should mention, I walked home, so the takeout container was stable. It basically looked like someone microwaved some meat, threw it on a pita, and there it was. The taste wasn't great, pita broke and it wasn't filling at all. This is probably the worst taco spot I've been to. I'd like my $12 back, please. read more

First the good part- the food is great, and I order here regularly. My only issue is so far, every time I've made an order with Ritual, it's never ready when I go to pick it up. I've waited 15 minutes before after showing up on time. Even when I leave later, I'm still early. I love the Burro Suiza so much though, I can't give them a lower rating U_U read more

Ordered here after looking for some Mexican food in the area and it didn't disappoint. It's a small mom and pop hole-in-the wall type of place with grocery offerings and a small table to order food. Flavours were on point and the portion size was good. It cost around $50 for 8 tacos, 2 Gorditas, 2 drinks and a pico de gallo. Only reason why it's 4 instead of 5 is because the pico was missing but we'll be getting it next time with our next order. Overall I would recommend!! read more

Walking by this place and seeing full tables with a sign that reads $1.00 tacos was enticing enough to lure me in! I was lucky enough to grab a table, dirty as it was and was quick to receive a menu, albeit one with salsa on it. All signs so far that I should high tail it outta there--but I chose to meet my fate. We ordered seven el pastor tacos as they were the feature for the evening and a chicken tamale to test this places authenticity. Everything came out quickly including the somewhat large tamale. The tacos were the mini kind, yes that's why we ordered seven!! The flavour wasn't too bad but the food, as mentioned by previous Yelpers, was cold. The tamale was a huge disappointment despite the size for $4.50. It was obviously nuked from frozen and with the second bite, I tasted nothing but poorly thawed corn meal--gross! We quickly walked up to the cash, paid and got the heck out of there never to return again! Lessons learned including trust previous Yelp reviews! read more

DISGUSTING. Went to this place to order Huevos Rancheros for breakfast. It was literally the WORST thing I have ever tasted. See attached photo... it looks as if the "chef" had vomited + spat on a few tortillas/eggs. I never saw Huevos Rancheros come in such a "liquid" sauce/soup. It was SO disgusting. I did not eat any of it. The service was also VERY long. It took over 25 minutes to prepare (it was a to-go order) . When the employee finally gave my order to me, I asked if he had included a fork/knife in the bag, and he said yes. When I opened my order once outside, there was no knife/fork, or no other type of utensils to eat with. Very unprofessional. On top of that, the "chef" had no closed the little box properly, so there was liquid dripping all over. I went back to the store to complain about the dripping + lack of utensils, but unfortunately for me, the level of English of the employees working there was too limited to understand what I was saying, so I was unable to get utensils to eat. Slightly weird. Definitely one of the worst "restaurants" experience of my entire life. Save yourself the time, money and possible vomiting experience. Don't go there. read more

I went last Monday for the first time around 1030am. I saw in the Latinos magazine that they have $1 dollar tacos promotion, so I decided to give a shot. When I ordered one taco, the server questioned why, I had to explain myself I want to try it first I like it or not. I felt uncomfortable doing that so she screamed the order to the cook " only one, she just want to try it if she likes it" It was a mini taco, I was expecting that... But 2 chunks of fat/nerves on it... My disgusting picture is attached (sorry) but I don't lie or exagerate. I tried the sauces in my taco and gordita and love them! The place was empty at that time, nevertheless the server urged me to pay my bill before I even finish my gordita... Very disappointed on that. I hope management uses Yelp and acts on it. The reason I write reviews is for new customers consideration and management improvement. I'll try their new location hoping the service is better... But won't try pastor tacos again read more

When I read about this place I knew I had to try it. What got me? The $1 tacos. What I did not realize, only on weekdays. Fail. We had the tacos anyways and delicious. I really like the chorizo and the fish one. The enchilada, overflowing goodness. The place is small, a few tables. It also feels a bit germy cause all the chairs and tables had fabric and while comfortable, warm, and maybe authentic? It also was like, what fell on this chair before? Regardless, I'd come back. Hopefully for t Some $1 taco. read more

it gives me no pleasure in saying this but good Mexican food is perhaps Toronto's greatest weak spot. For some reason i just cannot seem to find a legit taco spot that does justice to the cuisine. I know the mexican community is TO is growing and in time we will have the same calibre of restaurants as corona, ny or the mission district in sf. But until that time this is a goodish option. The prices are cheap and the staff are helpful. read more

Just came back from lunch here, the tacos I ordered were simple but pretty decent. My 2 Star review comes from the fact that the posted special as you walk in was not actually happening, which I learned when I payed. Instead of $8 for 8 (very) small tacos, I payed 27$. Even when I asked for the daily taco special when ordering, so I definitely feel misled if not scammed. It also doesn't help that the menu shows none of the prices. This definitely soured the experience, I will not be returning to this establishment. read more

Let me start by saying, the quality of food, not good. Everything was cold, the tacos tasted like plain tortilla, literally... Now look at these pictures and tell me what's wrong with them. They way the assembled the tacos was straight up disrespectful. The guacamole with "CHIPS", which was $8.99, was half way empty, with 3 chips. Never ordering from here again.
