First ever Mexican tacos stall in the richmond night market and they are serving you delicious and juicy dishes. Not to mention look at how the meat is served and prepared! Meat styled trompo style which consists of a vertical broiler which makes the meat juicier and more authentic flavouring. And not to mention their flavours are legit because their ingredients are sourced straight from Mexico! * Nacho ($19) ~ loaded and decked out with toppings. Lots of guacamole and beans and the crunchy chips paired well with the meat. The meat was juicy and well seasoned. The white onions on top added such a nice freshness to the nachos. Wish it had a tad bit more cheese. 7/10. * Gringas ($20) ~ comes with 3 pieces and they were so good and flavourful. The cheese was so melted and delicious with their soft tortillas and the meat was so juicy, flavourful and the flavours were jam packed! They even give you a side of sauces and it pairs so well. 8.5/10. * Overall I recommend this stall for their gringas. I haven't had good gringas in a hot minute so this was good read more

With that being said, I frequent the lower mainland to see my family and often times stay in the Ladner / Delta area. I've heard about Sonora MX Taqueria from my family as it is the first legit taqueria in this area. It was mentioned to me that over the last several years, there has been an increase in migrant workers and this is go to taqueria. I thought I had to try it. It must be good! Finally, this past Saturday was the day. We went in as a group of three and a baby. We were quickly greeted and provided a menu. The taqueria is clean and airy with a decent sized dining area. We ordered a chicken Tinga burrito, quesabirria tacos with consume, two fish tacos, a carnitas taco and a horchata. The order took a lil time to make but was all packed really well. Everything was amazing! The tacos all had great flavor. The red salsa had an amazing kick! And tje horchata was very tasty. One of the Better horchatas I've had. The food is up there! You can check out my pics! Everything was great and I am excited as this place grows in Ladner and hopefully more people find out. My only suggestions are to please add a salsa bar. It would be nice to pour your own chips, salsa, and peppers. I'm used to that in California. Also, some of the tacos were really hot and the to go containers can Make some of the items soggy. But if you eat at the taqueria this is not a problem. All in all Excellent experience and we will definitely be back!

Last visit (takeout) July 2024…read more Have grabbed takeout here several times; it's never disappointing! The bang bang shrimp bowl (5 stars) is absolutely delicious and one of our go tos; I just wish it came in different sizes. It's not quite enough for those of us with bigger appetites, and just slightly too much for my wife's. But it leaves other fast food bowls in the dust Their crispy fish works better as a burrito than a bowl. Their crispy fish Burrito is as good as any of the fish tacos I've had at local dine in restaurants, which is impressive. 4.5 stars In a bowl, you get 2 large pieces; it would have been better if there had simply been more, smaller pieces. But delicious nonetheless. Crispy fish burrito 4.5 stars, bowl 4 stars. On the flip side, their bang bang shrimp makes for the best bowl (5 stars), but it tends to be less crunchy a burrito (4.25 stars) Haven't tried their pulled pork in a bowl yet, but it's absolutely smashing in a burrito, 4.75 stars. Extreme Fries: fries with the works (beef, salsa, sour cream) taste good, but nothing special. 3.75 stars Crispy Chicken Burrito: excellent, demands Buffalo sauce (of course). Recommended; Bang Bang Shrimp Bowl Literally any Burrito. Overall 8.9/10, 4.5 stars.

Slow-cooked beef that's fall-apart tender, rich in flavor, and dripping with all those savory juices.

Pair it with that consommé for dipping and you've basically got the definition of comfort food perfection. * Nachos with a twist - Here's the insider scoop: order it with their secret menu Takis chip swap.

The egg waffle was just plain awesome . Compare to the same egg waffle that I got from another dessert place, the one here was crispy on the outside. The inside you can actually taste the caramelized portion of the egg tart, plus the egg waffle is not overly sweet. If there's anything that I would critique on, that would be to have more of the filling inside the egg waffle since it was half filled. The oolong lemon tea was great. It tasted like something I had in HK before. And I agree with the recommendation, it's best to drink it within 30 min. As far as service goes, it was awesome. The young male staff was very polite. He was very patient as well. On top of it, the place is clean and cool. I don't live around the Vancouver area but if I am ever back in the area, I would love to go back!

The shop is small, so it's mostly an order-and-go situation. We ended up waiting about 45 minutes for our order -- understandable since they only have two machines and each waffle has to be carefully "painted" with the pineapple bun crust. - Pineapple Bun (Bolobao) Bubble Waffle -- undeniably cute, like mini pineapple buns; loved the crust flavor, but the waffle itself was unfortunately on the dry side - Iced HK Milk Tea -- cool and refreshing; not as strong or silky as the Richmond food court versions, but still satisfying on a summer day Service was kind and respectful despite the long wait. Ambience is bustling with a cute, playful interior. They definitely need more waffle machines! Still worth trying for the novelty -- the concept is great, and once they perfect the texture, these could be amazing.

It reminded me of searching for pineapple buns as a kid. Unfortunately, the experience quickly took a turn. My wife, child, and I stopped in close to closing because my child wanted sesame balls. It was his first time ever asking for them, so we were excited to get a few. When we brought our items to the counter, the staff member curtly told us to grab more pastries, which already felt a bit off. Things became more uncomfortable during checkout. We were told they only accept CAD cards, which is understandable, but when we asked about paying in USD, they agreed at a one to one rate. Not ideal, but we were happy to support a local business. Our total came to 10.75 CAD and we paid with 20 USD. Instead of receiving proper change, we were strongly encouraged to take additional pastries because they did not have change. The staff was quite insistent, and we ended up with several extra items we did not really want. To make matters worse, after piling multiple pastries into my wife's already full hands as she was carrying bags from traveling, we asked for a bag and were initially told no. Only after we returned some of the coins given as change did a box and then suddenly a bag become available. The entire interaction felt unnecessarily pressured and uncomfortable. While both parties were speaking Chinese, I could not shake the feeling of being taken advantage of as an outsider simply trying to support the business. To top it off, the pastries themselves were mediocre at best. It is a shame, because the place has such a nostalgic charm, but the service left a lasting negative impression.
