The lady who is the main server is amazing. I never have to ask for chips and salsa she always brings it while I wait for my main. I can't speak for the other male server.

I didn't wait more than 10mins for my food and it was finished faster then it was served. The restaurant itself is pleasant to be in, the music is good and the restaurant is tidy. I think I must've come on an off day because I was the only person here aside from a pickup order, but that was good new for me! Overall a great experience and they'll have my business in the future

I pick up as is and then add homemade guac , coastal cheddar (costco), and a lots of hot sauce (Melinda's, but something like sri racha might even do since this is asian inspired burrito). The service is totally fine, and it never seems particularly busy as it is in a typically impossible to access part of 4th Ave.

I loved his burrito. We also ordered the chips/guac/salsa and it came with queso, so bonus points for a well designed dish there. And their fizzy water fountain had milder bubbles, but wasn't flat, so we enjoyed that as well. They have rotating daily offers/specials so there's a chance to try different things. Enjoy!

From tacos to burritos and everything in between, this spot hits all the right notes. * Tacos ($5.95 each)The taco selection here is nothing short of amazing. I tried a few different varieties, and each one was packed with flavor: * Campechano: A perfect blend of beef and pork with a delicious smoky flavor. * Chorizo minced pork: Spicy and savory with the perfect balance of seasonings. * Beef barbacoa: Tender, juicy, and flavorful - the kind of barbacoa you dream about. * Shrimp diabla (+$1): Spicy and succulent, this taco had a fantastic kick. * Battered shrimp (+$1): Crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside - a true winner. * Lamb birria: Rich and flavorful, with tender lamb that practically melts in your mouth. Every taco I tried was absolutely delicious, but the standout for me was the shrimp diabla. The perfect combination of heat and savory flavor made it unforgettable. * Rice Bowl ($16.50)I also tried the Pastor roasted pork rice bowl, and it was everything I hoped for. The pork was perfectly roasted, with a tender texture and just the right amount of seasoning. The rice served as the perfect base, complementing the meat beautifully. * Burrito ($17.95)Now, let's talk about the Carnitas braised pork burrito - The carnitas were rich and flavorful, but the real star was the chipotle mayo. It added such a creamy, smoky kick that elevated the entire burrito to another level. I could honestly have eaten the whole thing just for that chipotle mayo. *I had a slice of Tres Leches Cake ($8.50). It was light, moist, and perfectly sweet. *I tried both the Horchata and the Jamaica Hibiscus Rose. Both were refreshing and full of flavor. The Horchata was sweet and creamy, while the Jamaica Hibiscus Rose was tangy and slightly floral. * Overall, this meal was an absolute treat. The food is flavorful, fresh, and full of personality.

I am loving the burrito bowls here (and at their downtown sister restaurant Toloache)! They have…read morelots of vegetarian options and it's authentic Mexican so they offer different flavours than what you can find at large burrito chains. Their salsas are delicious and the bowls have the right balance of ingredients for a satisfying meal. I just tried the tres leches cake and was really impressed by a beautifully presented piece of fresh and fluffy cake! The horchata is also very good. Looking forward to trying more. You order and pay at the counter and seat yourself, they bring the food to you. In terms of manners, the staff seems to have the attitude where they are just doing their jobs, so they're not rude or anything, but no extraneous niceties. Service is fast though.

We grabbed a table on the peaceful patio, which made for the perfect relaxing lunch. We started with the guacamole and chips, then shared the pollo frito burrito, rajas con crema taco, tinga de pollo taco, and the Pescado Estilo Baja taco. To drink, my boyfriend had the mango margarita while I enjoyed the refreshing hibiscus drink. Overall, the food was solid and everything was fresh and flavorful. The only thing we both wished for was a bit more heat in the salsa--it wasn't quite spicy enough for our tastes. The space itself is adorable and really makes you feel like you've been transported to an authentic Mexican cantina. The service was warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly, which made the experience even better. We'll definitely be back to try more from the menu.

We came here on a Sunday afternoon for an early dinner. There was only one other party seated…read morethough another one came when we were close to leaving. I hope it gets more busy more often because we really enjoyed our meals. We had the: Chile Relleno Chicken Enchiladas with green salsa Beef Enchiladas with mole Horchata Mexican Flan Churro bites with ice cream We would recommend them all and recommend sharing them with others, so you get to taste the different flavours, especially the mole! The dishes were beautifully served, and the rice and beans came separately before hand which you can eat alone or mix in with your saucy dish. Service was really friendly, the space was beautiful. Yes, the portion feels slightly smaller than what I have eaten at other Mexican restaurants and feel they could maybe serve a bit more beans and rice but we still thoroughly enjoyed our meal.

We had a chicken burrito ($19.50) and tamale plate ($20). The food tasted good, but we felt that…read morethe prices are about 25% too high considering the small portion sizes. You can go to Chipotle just up the hill, and get a chicken burrito for $13 - it's the same quality food, but the burrito is much larger, and $7 cheaper... Or you could go to one of the many shawarma or donair shops in the area, and get a donair for $15 that has more meat and filling (that's $5 cheaper!). The tamale plats for $20 was a joke. It came with a *single* tamale (no meat), and about 1/2 cup of rice and 1/2 cup if beans. I could maybe see this being worth it if prices at $13, but honestly for INE tamale, this is brutally overpriced. When you enter this place, there are no customers inside, and it's almost certainly because the food is not worth the prices they are charging. They need to reduce their prices by 25% to bring prices in line with other restaurants in the area.

Been wanting to try this place for years and years. The original location was on Kingsway. That…read morelocation closed sometime last year and they relocated to this spot on Fraser St. Walked in and immediately caught a whiff of something that smelled super delish in the air. I don't know what I was smelling, but whatever it was...I was already convinced right then and there that this place was serving up some good eats. I ordered a Quesadilla and a glass of Cinnamon Horchata. For the Quesadilla, I had an option of having it plain, or upgrading to a Chef version, or further upgrading it to a Signature version. I chose Tinga Vegetariana (vegetable medley in chipotle and adobo sauce) which was a Signature version. The food was good. I loved the tanginess of my Quesadilla. I have to admit though...the portion was kinda scanty for what they were charging. When I looked at my plate, I started to wonder whether I should order a taco to help supplement, or whether I'd just go home and munch on potato chips. Thankfully, the glass of Horchata was a very tall glass. After eating the Quesadilla, and drinking my tall glass of Horchata, I was sufficiently filled. Emphasis on the "sufficient" part. I could have definitely had more, but didn't care to blow any more money than I already had. I went home and munched on a few potato chips. Would I come back here again? The food was good, so yes...I would come back; however, I wouldn't order the Quesadilla again. I'd probably go with a Burrito, or a Burrito bowl and see whether the portions are more generous for those items than the Quesadilla portion was.

Their food is from the rich culinary traditions of Oaxaca, every dish here feels authentic, and beautifully placed. The atmosphere and decor stands out. It's chic and stylish, not your typical Mexican restaurant.

It matters whether the corn tamales are fresh and the right kinds of cheese are used. The quality of the jalapenos. The variety of the salsas. And especially the way the meats are seasoned and cooked. It seems like the farther I get away from Mexico, the more unreliable the Mexican food becomes (although I must admit, I did once have a great Mexican meal at a hotel in Sweden!) Anyway, Vancouver is pretty far from Mexico. And so the results are pretty dicey at a lot of the Mexican places around here. But Mi Casa really blew us away. It's a little hard to find, it's just a door with stairs going up. But once you're up there, it's quite, spacious, with picture windows lining two walls. I was pretty sure things were going to go well when I got my Margarita. None of that fake Margarita flavored syrup here, just real lime juice and a generous two ounces of tequila and a rim half salted without my having to ask. Then the enormous pile of nachos showed up, thoughtfully layered and covered in the right kind of cheese. Plentiful pickled jalapenos with just the right spice level. A mound of delicious guacamole. And an incredible chorizo. I've never even been much of a fan of chorizo, and if I'd known it was going to be on there, I'd probably have had them leave it off, but it really made the dish. It was complex and smoky, and its flavors infused everything. Honestly, these were the best nachos I've ever had anywhere. I also had the lunch special, which was two tacos. I chose pastor and cochinita pabil. Pastor is a longtime favorite of mine, and this was prepared in a very traditional way. It was excellent, but the cochinita pabil was even better. Succulent and plentiful. Some of the best I've had. My wife had two tamales with chicken filling. You could tell they were homemade with perfectly done cornmeal wrappers and served on corn husks. Service was friendly, and the server verified our suspicion that the owners were from Mexico City. I've dined in hundreds of Mexican restaurants, but I have to say this was the biggest surprise and was among the very top of all that I've been to. It really exceeded our expectations and will become a regular on our rotation.
