Sat us down, took our orders and brought us our food then quickly brought the bill so they could change tables over. The Margarita here was excellent. Definitely felt like a strong boozey drink. Well done! Tried their Chilaquiles - not sure what I was expecting but this was more nachos than anything else. Definitely not the best in the city either. Maiz De Cole - strangely the best option that I selected. The chilli, lamb, cilantro just went so well. Great light option if you need one. Definitely not better than a good Mexican street corn though. Birria Taco - wanted to like this but didn't leave much to be desired. Large portions of protein Ordered the extra Birria as my date also wanted this. Looking back, should have stuck with the single order. It was way too much birria protein which after a few bites became overly dry and lacked flavour. Carnitas Tacos - come in a order of 2. Better option for smaller appetites. Overall, felt a bit steep in price. Their website online doesn't even post prices yet.

It's a shame, because Vancouver really lacks Mexican restaurants, especially in the West End. But with ordering at the counter rather than the table, this isn't really a restaurant, either.

Warm, buzzy, and genuinely welcoming from the moment you walk in. The enchiladas are my go-to, saucy and cheesy and full of flavour, I order them almost every time and they never miss. But truly everything here is great. The tacos are excellent across the board, the guacamole is fresh, the nachos come loaded, and you should absolutely save room for the churros because they're some of the best I've had. Portions are generous and the prices are more than reasonable for how much food you get. The margaritas don't disappoint either. It gets busy, especially on weekends, but the staff keep things moving and are lovely the whole way through. A proper hidden gem. I go whenever I'm downtown.

Stopped by for dinner after some shopping in downtown to grab a bite. It was a Friday night and we…read moregot a spot without reservation but it was only two of us. They have a pretty good indoor space that can fit a good amount of people. Their food and overall vibe was very authentic Mexican food. They gave us a bowl of chips when we sat which was nice. For starters we ordered their chips and guac which was good! The guac came with feta cheese and guac tasted fresh. For mains I got their huarache de la casa, it was layered with tortillas (kind of like a cake of tortillas), carne asada, beans, lettuce, cream and cheese. It was cheesy and flavourful and super filling! I loved it! My friend got their gringa tacos which were on soft shells and pretty good as well. I would recommend this spot!

A shot and a beer later, things were already looking up. We grabbed some tacos, which hit the spot. I had my heart set on their quesadillas, but turns out they were unavailable because they're moving locations soon. Tragic. All in all, a solid first meal in Vancouver. Will 100% be back--hopefully next time with quesadillas and less jet lag.

Checked out The Red Accordion tucked away on Alberni for an evening of comfort food and cocktails…read more The Food The kitchen leans heavily into elevated, soulful comfort dishes with generous portions. The short rib stroganoff was deeply savory, rich, tender ribbons of beef folded into wide noodles with plenty of earthy wild mushrooms. It's deeply satisfying, though with all that rich sauce, the last few bites can feel pretty heavy. We also tried the savoury Dutch baby, which had great puffed, crispy edges and a custardy center that held up well against its savory toppings. The cocktail program is just as strong, with well-balanced drinks that don't lean overly sweet. The Service Friendly, down-to-earth, and attentive. We were greeted warmly at the entrance and guided upstairs without any awkward waiting. Drink orders were taken quickly, water was refilled consistently, and our server had honest recommendations when we asked to compare a couple of share plates. Pacing between drinks and hot food felt natural and relaxed. The Ambiance Easily the standout feature of the experience. Set inside a converted heritage house, it feels like dining in a bohemian, antique-filled living room. Between the fringed vintage lamps, dark moody walls, eclectic framed art, and soft amber lighting, the vibe is cozy, quirky, and distinctly romantic. It does get a little dim once the sun sets, and some tables in the smaller rooms are arranged fairly close together, but the character makes up for it.

My friend and I decide to go to Nelson park to have to go tacos. It's few minutes walk from restaurant. They have 4 tacos for $17 deal though, I ordered two tacos for $9ish and good volume and tasty. Their fish taco is not deep fried one. It's grilled with creamy sauce. Very good balance. I really enjoyed lots of flavor in it. Mole chicken taco was very tender and saucy. It's gonna be messy but worth to try it.

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.
