I really didn't think we could find quality Mexican food in this relatively small German city, but…read moreas a Tex-Mex craving American, let me tell you, you will not be disappointed. The yummily messy flavor profiles, the variety of proteins (beef, mushrooms, chicken), the presentation, the heading portions - it was all here. Your cravings will be satisfied. Service was fast, and some of the cooks only spoke Spanish (no English or German), which tells you how authentic it is! Worth walking a bit from the S-Bahn to find. We ate inside because the sidewalk benches were full of lingering patrons.

You can order and prepay online by scanning a QR code on a buzzer which will alert you to your order being ready. I really liked the food but the online menu and ordering process wasn't ideal, especially if you are unfamiliar with the menu. I maybe would have had a better experience with the indoor large screen ordering system (like the kind they have at fast food restaurants). I am a bit old fashioned and like to order directly and ask questions if needed.

And the burritos don't have rice in them. The chips and salsas were great too. Pineapple sour beer was excellent also. Girlfriend loved the red cabbage, maybe a little anachronistic for Mexican, but tasty! Super cool ambiance with all kinds of Mexican images (heavy on the Frida khalo I'll say though). Service was fine, prices were fine by Swiss standards (about $30 USD for a burrito with red cabbage and chips or 3 tacos with no sides). A 750 ml pitcher of margaritas for $80 USD was a bridge too far though. ;)

We happened to be in Basel for an event yesterday and I got the urge for Mexican food. We checked…read moreYelp for something close and La Piratita was the closest and also sounded the most like 'real' Mexican food. We weren't disappointed. Knowing it was Cinco de Mayo, I wasn't sure we'd manage to get in but took a chance. Lucky us, we were seated at a table outside on the patio next to a large group of celebratory Americans (luckily, we're Americans too). So, in short, margaritas were excellent, the La Piratita 'Taco Party' that we ordered was fantastic and probably the most authentic (if I actually remember what that is anymore) Mexican food I/we've eaten since we left the U.S. Also, the service was excellent as well. FYI - They also have some really excellent tequila. Within a couple of bites both my wife and I knew that we'd be returning for more. Yum!
