Holy yes. This tiny little Mexican spot right on Port Alberni's harbourfront was such a treat. All…read morebright colours and tile mosaics and stocked with many many hot sauce options (fun fact: they keep the really hot stuff for the die-hards behind the counter), this place just made me happy. We three popped in for a quick lunch on a Saturday afternoon and all left very satisfied. Sizable portions, super quick service, and so so tasty. Plus, they can make most things vegan and/or gluten free if you ask. I had the veggie enchiladas and am still fantasizing about them. My lunch pals had the fish tacos and one of the burritos (I think it was chicken) respectively. I think the burrito was less of a hit than the tacos and the enchiladas, but still good. I also had an agua de jamaica (iced hibiscus tea) that brought me right back to the beach in Mexico.

I've had the enchiladas here many times and every time I wonder how those other places could be so bad compared with this! The morita sauce is my favourite and has a mild punch all on its own. Nice selection of hot sauce to bolster that if you like. This cantina is like a bolt from the heavens; the flavour delivers and good times at the bar are easy to come by. Get the mezcal margaritas. You only live once!

We brought the tacos (wrapped in foil) to a friend's house and the four of us were well-fed and delighted. It's a juicy taco, so I wouldn't recommend trying to eat it in the car, one-handed, while driving. By the way, the weather's getting cooler (it's early November), so the waiting time was just the few minutes that it took to prep our order. We'll head back soon to pick up some of their other offerings -- try everything is my motto when I find something this nice.

I was recommended this place by a local and I love my tacos so I was super stoked to get some fish…read moretacos. The view is beautiful! I got 2 regular sized tacos and 1 kid sized taco and it was too much. These tacos are massive. The fish taco itself was quite bland and it just didn't hit the spot. They are also very popular so I suggest calling and ordering ahead of time. It's a cash only spot too, and the closest atm is a 5 minute drive. Some of their popular items sell out pretty early too so I go earlier if you can!

I ordered the king with a raspberry margarita and it was great, my blue cheese slider was a bit dry but tasty, the wings and other sides were hot and crispy. The other burgers and fries were delicious, my husband said it was the best burger he's had. the only thing I would change is one of the patios was so hot and the umbrellas didn't add enough coverage so a large tent would be better.

Met some friends here for dinner after a wonderful dinner the night before at another local place…read moreserving far different fare. The interior is very plain, and somewhat looks thrown together, and that's ok. It's not trying to be anything other than what it is, no apologies. When your claim to fame is a dinner, or lunch, on top of a Caesar in a glass, you are kind of throwing up your middle in defiance aren't you. The service was good, everything was well taken care of. The food itself is good and quite abundant. K's wings were very nicely cooked and quite plump. The sauce was meh, but that's a personal choice. The taco salad, which we shared was quite good as well, but the taco chips could have been of a better quality, or better yet made in house. My beef dip was pretty good, not fatty at all which is a turn off for me. Fries were abundant, but the au jus needed a helping hand. Our guests had wings as well and a hot chicken sandwich. Both were quite good as well. I could have seen a five star, and it was quite close, just not quite there. We'd go again though next time we are in Parksville!

We both ordered the cosmic burger which arrived in an absurd 50 minutes after ordering, it lacked in the flavour department big time. Our server and the bus/host team were great, very well mannered and respectful. The atmosphere was nice. Good music and an ocean view. The main issue is the kitchen, the restaurant was no where near full but the excuse given to us was that the kitchen staff became overwhelmed with orders... not acceptable in our opinion.

We were actually camping at Rathtrevor Provincial Park. The food was outstanding: we started with these panko crusted white cheddar cheese balls sprinkled with Parmesan cheese--crispy, gooey and yummy. I had a Guinness on tap which was one of the freshest I had ever had and not a bit bitter. The server (who was super friendly and knowledgeable) steered me to the creamy seafood chowder which was filled with salmon, halibut, scallops, prawns and clams and not at all salty . After dinner we enjoyed a stroll along the rocky coast in front of the resort. Next time we are anywhere near Nanoose Bay, we will be back!
