The owner was very welcoming / personable.. And a nice touch with the DJ if ya want to boogie at the end of the night. I will be going back to celebrate my Birthday!! read more

We went to this cute little restaurant last weekend, and really enjoyed the atmosphere, food and friendly service. We tried the shrimp tacos, not amazing or really special in anyway, and a little over priced, but they tasted good. The shrimp were well seasoned with a house made taco seasoning, and the toppings were fresh and the veggies were crunchy. The Mexican poutine was my favorite part of our meal, I didn't realize it would be a 4 person shareable portion. It was loaded with toppings and was vegetarian, and full of flavour. The onions had some special seasoning on them, I'm not sure if there was sour cream or a house sauce, loaded with fresh diced tomatoes, and a good handful of jalapeños. And under all that goodness the crispy fries were sitting on a bed of melted cheese, and lots of it. They definitely didn't skimp out on anything with this dish, I would highly recommend you try this. We also got one shrimp tostada, and we were very under impressed with this dish, the corn tortilla was drenched in oil, and it was like a small salad, not a lot of flavour. Lastly I got a cosmo, which tasted like it had little alcohol in it, I could not taste the ounce of vodka that was supposed to be in there, but it was a well made virgin drink, would I pay $10 again for it? Probably not... The staff were very welcoming and arranged a table for us even though they were very busy and the house was packed. Our server was also very nice, but I think they needed maybe a few more, it was a little bit of a wait for us to get our bill. But over all she was a good waitress, very friendly, know the menu, and didn't offer too much advice unless I asked about something, so no upselling, which is always appreciated. read more

Prices are crazy expensive for what you actually get, $24 for 3 TINY tacos. We had to order a side of fries we were still hungry. They also auto-tip 18% regardless of group size. Today was the first day that restaurants were to be HST tax exempt, when we raised that to the waitress after being charged the HST, she said "Its not mandatory.." A quick google search says that it is, so we basically were cheated out of the tax. We were also charged a $25 "Cake fee" since we brought a cake. They didn't serve the cake or cut it, yet still charged the fee. We argued this and they reluctantly took it off. Between the tiny portions, auto-tip, cake fee, and charging us the HST when they shouldn't have, I cannot recommend this place. read more

If I could give this place negative stars I would. We came here on a Sunday evening where were it was pretty empty, We ordered the following: Nachos - probably the worst I've ever had, they were so soggy covered in runny sour cream and cheese Chicken Tacos - pretty tasty, but it had a very strong chipotle flavour Shrimp Tacos- had a very overpowering chipotle flavour , so much so it was difficult to eat. Veggie Enchiladas - it was simply just grilled veggies and cheese inside a flour tortilla covered with cheese and yellow sauce that was way too runny. The water had a weird aftertaste The service is extremely slow , And to top it off, they had the audacity to give themselves an automatic 18% tip for a group more then 4ppl which turned out to be $20 for the poor service I can say with 100% certainty I will not be returning or reccomending this place to anyone. read more

Don't go here for the food. I saw the reviews on Yelp and went anyway as not a lot of places are open after 10. Good atmosphere with music and band and very lively. Good drinks and vibe, so go there for that! The food on the other hand.. meh. The veggies on the tacos were turning brown/red and when they charge $25 for Mahi Mahi tacos, one expects fresh toppings. The tortilla was good and the Mahi Mahi wasn't bad, but not that great. Steak chimichanga was.. ok ... Flavourful steak but that was it. Rice and peas and other stuff inside was just "ok". Waited a very long time to be served though. Had to interrupt staff as they walked by to get menus. We gave this place a chance despite the reviews and was sadly dissapointed. Won't be returning for the food. read more

3.5 Star My Yelp friend was so relax and chill while we were chowing down Tacos at Yo Amo Tacos. The interior deco does reminds me of Playa del Carmen or somewhere in a resort area in Mexico. We were sitting at the sun room area overlooking a small ravine, not a beach but I can really use my imagination! I really want a real Margarita but apparently the bartender was not in the house and no cocktails or foo foo drinks for me... (hopefully next visit!) I ended up having a Negra Modelo ($7.25) We also shared: Fish Ceviche Taco ($6) - Fish or Seafood? Tasted a little bland and the seafood was hard and dry.. I have to remind myself I am not in Mexico! Tuna Tartar Tostada ($7) - Really tasty and the condiments complimented the tuna tartar perfectly, will order again! Short Rib Taco ($6) - Meat was tender and flavoured Fish Taco ($6) - Fish was dry and mushy (Most of the tacos were really saucy and piled high with fillings, making eating a messy and tricky experience.) And for dessert, the most important part of the meal, we shared: Grilled Pineapple with Mexican Vanilla Ice Cream and Dulce de Leche ($8) - love everything! A great combination of texture, taste and presentation! Churros in a Maya Chocolate Sauce ($7) - Churros were a little doughy but love the chocolate sauce.... and the presentation was interesting! We really enjoyed our experience! A taste of Mexico up in Vaughan! I definitely will be back to have more dessert and hopefully a real Margarita next time! Salud! read more

Service was terrible, waitress took.like 15 mins. to take orders (3 persons), forgot o e of the dri KS and.took another 10 mins to bring it to the table, spill the chips.on table when putting them.down, give the drinks on hand, ask.fpr warm bottle of water for a sick kid and she said they put all of bottles on fridge. Food cold (tacos) looks like 2 of the orders (total 3) were ready forst and she didn't bring them over til the fourth one was ready, obviously the 2 first plates/dishes were cold, ask for a.second beer and never show up. On top of that we were charged with an "automatic tip charged of 16% " even we were just 3 people. When we asked to talk to manager she said it's me and nothing else to.do in a sarcastic way. Firs time 6 years ago was the same with service, they have changed many times of management and that's why we gave it another shot but very disappointed experience. read more

Great food, mediocre service. To start the food here was fantastic! We got the nachos with chorizo and guacamole and it was so good I was sad when it was all gone. We got a selection of tacos as well, octopus, flank steak, lamb, pork belly and beef. All were excellent but a few of them seemed to have to same fixings with just different meat. I was fine with that but others might. The flavour was excellent, all of the meats were cooked perfectly and they were really delicious and presented well. The building, well, I raised an eyebrow when we first arrived and stepping inside was a slight relief. We came in the middle of the week (Tuesday night) and it was almost empty. The service from the single waitress was pretty bad. I'm not sure if she was also cooking the food but she rarely came around for drink refills. I hope this isn't the same when the place is better. Overall I think my title says it all: GREAT food, mediocre service. read more

Please, if you're thinking of going here, re-think your decision. My gfs and I had a terrible uncomfortable time here. First of all, there's hardly any parking. My 4 gfs and I came in 3 separate cars and not one of us could get a spot in their lot. Other guests had already made their own parking spots wherever they could. So even those artificial spots were taken. We ended up having to park at the plaza across the street. It's totally a buzzkill having to run across 4 lanes of traffic in wedges. There's a light you could cross at, but it's so far. *eye roll Anyways, I had a long standing craving for fish tacos, so I was pretty set on this. After we had put our orders through, the server came back not too shortly to let me know that the fish tacos were actually $25 that evening. $25, are you crazy?! It had something to do with the fish vendor and the type of fish. I mean, it was really nice she let me know, because there was no way I was ordering $25 fish tacos. Especially, at a resto that had less than impressive reviews. I had read them before coming here, but didn't have the heart to tell my gfs, since they were pretty set on coming here. So after she tells me this, I proceed to take a look at the menu once again. She then starts to suggest things similar to the fish tacos, ie. shrimp tacos, octopus etc. I then let her know I was allergic to shellfish. Her attitude was totally rushed, as if IIII was inconveniencing her, while she is there hovering, waiting for me to make a decision. Like girl, chill, can I get a moment?! I told her she could just come back for my order and she tells me that the other girls need the till, so she needs to put the order through. I let her know, that was fine, to put my gfs's order. She then proceeds to tell me that it could take awhile for my order to be brought out, if she puts the order through separately. Like how much later could it be?!? Anyways, I ended up just getting some chicken taco or something. I don't even remember because it was totally unmemorable, besides the fact that they were disgusting. The second tortilla they use here is totally unnecessary, as they were rubbery, dry, bland. An all around sad taco. My gf thought the same thing. I ate one and traded her for one of hers and left the third one. I was not wasting my calories on those. We had also ordered the poutine mexicana for the table and these were the only good thing for the night. Drinks were okay too. Just when we thought it couldn't get worse, for some reason EVERY single server kept checking up on our table EVERY 5 minutes. I'm not even joking. The five of us were so annoyed. Like YES, everything is okay. It's still okay from when we were asked 5 minutes ago! And why is everyone even asking us anyways? They weren't serving us?? Maybe they were doing this to make up for the fact that we were very unimpressed. Which in turn, just made things worse. Moral of the story is, don't go here. read more

Right off the bat: I do NOT recommend. We went here a while ago on a Sunday evening, so it was pretty empty. what we ordered was: Nachos - so soggy & covered in runny sour cream and cheese Chicken Tacos - my sister said they were good but the flavour was too strong Shrimp Tacos- my sister also said these had a very overpowering chipotle flavour Veggie Enchiladas - it was literally just grilled veggies and cheese inside a tortilla covered with cheese and yellow sauce that was wayyy too runny Side note: the water had a weird aftertaste Overall: the food was not good, and overpriced. the service was extremely slow and they had the audacity to give themselves an automatic 18% tip for a group more then 4ppl (there was 5 of us) which turned out to be a $20 tip for the awful service read more

The places decore is really nice. However the tables are stacked one on top of the other. We were there on 10/20/201. Noise was unreal. Impossible to have a conversation. Music sounds just like base. Price for food is $$$$. I ordered a burrito for $26 and it was smaller than at other Mexican places and with fries on the side and not as tasty. There were extremely salty and had to ask for a replace my that came very fast. No vegetables or anything next to it but fries. Es no comida mexicana! The meet inside the burrito was cold. Other dishes were ok. Fajitas looked good. I didn't taste it. I got a 18% tip incorporated in the bill. Not sure why they decide for me how good the service is... we were four people. I was there few years ago and didn't have a great experience. Now I remember why. Not going back. One alcoholic drink and sparkling water with a small appetizer is $91. read more

EXPENSIVE with very small portions. The Wait staff is poorly trained and long wait times for food. The ignorant hostess seems to know nothing about the place and is clueless to her job. This is an easy fix for them. The prices are crazy inflated. Between $6-$9 per taco. Yes you heard me. $6-$9 for each taco. No sides or anything. They advertise an assortment of 5 sauces. They said that ran out of bowls so they bring 3 sauces in small pill like containers. Everything is super priced and the portions are crazy small. The nacho chips are store bought from a bag. The food is tasty, I give it that much but way to expensive. The only problem is that the wait staff is useless and doesnt know what is going on. Takes forever to get your drinks. Also eating off wooden planks of wood is not too appetizing as wood can never get 100% clean. The worst of all is the hostess. Not sure why the owner hired her. She is useless, rude and has no sense of restaurant operation. 2 out of 5 *** Go to Rebozos for tacos and Mexican food. $2.50/taco and the food is much much better. Good luck. To stay in business fire your hostess and get better wait staff. See attached drink menu for all of their cocktails and recipes. read more

Yo Amo Tacos - Their cocktail recipiea - Mexican Near Me - Vaughan, Ontario

This location opened this week. It's based on its sister restaurant in Playa del Carmen, Mexico. I have frequented the Playa location so have my expectations. The Playa place is basically a taco joint, albeit very good tacos. First question is will it translate well here, especially considering we won't have the same ingredients or chef up here. Both restaurants are owned by entrepreneur Carlo Parentela. He also owns Le Jardin banquet hall, in Woodbridge, which I know to be one of the best in a vast sea of banquet halls in Woodbridge. First impression. Wow! This is a Mexican restaurant in York region? The place is decked out and it's not small either. They're expecting 300 people for the grand opening tonight. It has a walk out basement into a yard with more seating. The food is on par with the Playa restaurant. Tacos were all prepared correctly, I especially liked the shrimp. All served on wooden flat plates. Ceviche could have a better balance of flavours in the marinade. The pork posole was very tender and has a potent blend of flavours. I really hope this place makes it, I know I'll be back. read more

Great place for authentic Mexican food fun and casual atmosphere. It's an old house that's been completely redone. Good for big groups

I would say 3.5/5 for this. I had a Groupon for this place where I paid approx $10 for $20 worth of food. I ordered the taco sampler which had steak, pork and fish and something else. The tacos weren't bad and I thought the presentation was lovely. It's probably one of the better tacos I've had in the GTA but not even close to Mexico but WAY WAY WAY better than Taco Bell. I really enjoyed the steak one. What I also liked was that they give you so many types of dipping sauce too. In addition, this place is gorgeous. When you drive in, you think you are parking your car into someone's big mansion parking lot with the nice statue and setup. In addition, inside is beautiful and reminds me of the large restaurants in Mexico City. So why only 3.5 stars? a) The flies. I saw some really big flies near my table and had to keep shooing them away. Not the biggest deal, but ruins the experience slightly. b) For the price they charge (even though I had a Groupon), I kind of wish they served nachos. At most sit-down Mexican restaurants, I'm used to getting nachos. I was kind of disappointed I didn't get them. However, overall, I'd still visit again and try something different. read more

Gave this place the benefit of the doubt despite the reviews. We were a group of 3. Had 3 different tacos, the avocado, the chicken and the mushroom. The chicken was cold, the mushroom was very bland. The avocado was the best taco and was actually very good but the tacos themselves were hard. On top of that we sat near the door and they had door open the entire time we sat there. Very cold. Very uncomfortable. My friend who was with me said this place used to be a lot better back in the day, i hope they can get back to that eventually. read more

I am giving Yo Amo Tacos 1 star for food and 1 extra star for its great atmosphere. Place is well decorated and gives you the vibe of a true Mexican resort restaurant. Unfortunately the food comes up short and service is quite slow. Nachos: Nothing special; cheese not melted. Fries: Good, hot & fresh Chicken Enchiladas: Decent, not much flavor and rice was bland. Chicken Tacos: Dry chicken; pickled onions nice touch. Mushroom Tacos: Just plain button mushrooms cut and spiced lightly. Very simple and bland. read more

I thought to give this place a try because it has 3.8 star on Google reviews. Should have listened to Yelp. The food is overpriced and stale tasting. We had the short rib taco and chicken tacos and it tasted like cardboard. The only thing that made the food palatable was the sauce. The waitress also tried to put us near other people when there were so many other open spaces...and she didn't even clean the table before we sat down. Also the tip is included in the bill...what kind of logic is that? read more

If you want to escape Toronto just for a little bit... and imagine yourself somewhere south.. and tropical.. this is the place.. it has a very authentic mexican feel.. back solarium is awesome as it faces a ravine ... very hard to capture in pictures but its really cool.. i think the main selling point for this restaurant.. but that being said, location is not the best as its pretty far from where i live and you need a car. presentation is good and service was excellent... very polite staff and management who came to check up on us.. food was authentic mexican tasting... only deducting a point because of price. it is on the expensive side ... and civiche needs not a little .. but a lot more lime IMO. read more

Went there tonight little creepy when your front door is like that: makes it look either vacated or the place just got robbed. Had the guac and chips guac good green salsa very good. The chips felt and tasted store bought. I had the steak fajitas the others had chicken normally fajitas are brought out sizzling hot both orders were not. The wraps were good no quad included in the fajitas big portions. I found the steak to be very bland; and in need of seasoning. The other people complained about there chicken not being flavourful as well. Maybe it just needed some hot sauce or Tabasco. Did not stay for dessert as was running late into the evening. Servers were very happy and friendly. read more

If I could give this a 0 I would. The scenery was beautiful and that's where the positive ends. I brought my family there for my fathers 77th birthday and unfortunately nothing tasted good. I ordered guacamole and flautas (chicken) for appetizers. The guacamole was old, turning brown. It had 0 taste, it was literally just mashed up day old avocado. Typically you have onion, tomato, garlic and lime juice, this had nothing. The flautas were all burnt and served with Parmesan cheese. Definitely not Mexican. Not sure how the chicken inside the flautas was black (charted)??. The waitress offered to replace them however I declined. For main course we had tacos and Mexican burritos, all unfortunately again had 0 taste, not even salt. Lastly the service could have been better. I ordered a coffee, was never offered a refill or checked up on if I needed something else. My waitress had a positive attitude just not very good at her job. We actually had service from the surrounding waitresses that were kind enough to bring us water. Service aside, this review is solely based on the awful quality of the food. Please save your money and time, do not go. Even if I was offered a free meal I would not go. read more

I loved this place!!! Wonderful ambience. It truly felt like an authentic restaurant in Mexico. The food was amazing and affordable. Portions are good as well. I recommend the tortilla chips and salsa appetizer. The desserts was impeccable. We had the fried pineapple with ice cream and the banana tempura with chocolate and dulce de leche . The service was great as well! Highly recommended!!!! I will go back over and over again! read more

Horrible service, horrible food! I'll start like that this review. We waited almost one hour to eat and the restaurant was empty. The menu is a scam with you order something that says "and your choice of beef, chicken or vegetables" that means extra $6 for your "choice of". There was no manager in to deal with the situation and I'm talking about Sunday dinner time. Now let's talk about the food... I never seen a Caesar salad like the one they served. The burger we couldn't eat because was so salty. I order a "protein lettuce wrap" and the lettuce was old and they didn't even bother to cut the parts that wasn't good anymore of the lettuce. My wife's plate came with a over cooked chorizo. And finally I got my margarita after all my family already got theirs in the beginning, so I was drinking alone by that point and to forget this horrible experience. read more

Yo Amo Tacos - "Lettuce wrap" - Mexican Near Me - Vaughan, Ontario

Went on a Saturday evening. Ordered the quesadilla. Poor quality of food and service. Would not recommend.

It was the worst experience in my life they put tip in bill they think people from Vaughn are automatically rich and we owe them. It is also illegal to not tell you that they put tip in bill. They should be shut down immediately! read more

Went into Yo Amo Tacos today wondering if it was even open. It was so we thought we'd give it a try. The place was completely empty but soon more people came in. We opened the menu and found our usual Mexican staple, Enchiladas. The price was $22!!! Even if these were the best enchiladas we've ever had (and we've had some GOOD ones) I'm sorry, there would be absolutely no way to justify $22. Other prices on the menu were equally ridiculous. I couldn't do it. I simply could not bring myself to order $22 enchiladas on principle. Yo Amo Tacos (or Yo "heart" Tacos as the sign confusingly shows) is NOT a trendy or upscale place that can dare to charge prices like this for show. It's a run down joint that really should be fairly priced and awesome like mostly every other Mexican restaurant I've had the pleasure to give positive ratings to. No way, no how, no go, no Yo! read more

The decor and desserts were probably the only good 2 good things about this restuarant. Service was slow and the food had surprisingly little flavour for mexican food. I enjoy live music but not when it's so loud you can't hear the person next to you. I wasn't expecting to oay so much for bland tacos and fries. Won't be returning. read more

I would have rated it ZERO if there is... Please save your hard earned money and spend it somewhere else where there would be better food and you'll be treated well. This place is TERRIBLE, HORRIBLE! First, the place was steaming and uncomfortably hot! It took many "request" and people for them to turn off the heat. We were group of 10 and they are so NOT accommodating to our request the entire night to even move us to a table that is reasonably comfortable. Their food is NOT good and serves bad/stale vegetables! When I expressed to the male server that the cabbage was bad and sour (even my friend tasted it and she spit it out), the server did not even apologize, he did not take away the food and he did not even offer to resolve the situation. He went on with his work without coming back to me to take away the bad food and offer the menu so I can order something else. He just told me with an attitude that NOBODY COMPLAINED BEFORE (which I doubt very much). They just left the food until WE ASKED them to take it away (photo shown attached). The male server (I wish I got his name) was very rude and inattentive! He took so long to take drinks order, we even had to go to the bar ourselves TWICE to get pitcher of water, brought dirty glasses, he mixed up our orders, brought wrong dish, put items on wrong bills, did not check in with us while we were eating and the worst was the way he treated me with the bad food. Apparently, my bf talked to the owner and requested to resolve things with me, that owner NEVER came to talk to me! From the owner to employees absolutely do not know crap about proper customer service. I ended up getting a burger after we left this terrible restaurant. I DO NOT recommend this OVERPRICED place at all and share to your friends and family. read more

Very expensive for what you receive. Also the online menu doesn't match the one given to you in restaurant, the prices are significantly higher in the restaurant.

BUYER BEWARE!! Stay away and save your $$$ and probably your health! Right at the start, as we walked in, the hostess barely said hello and was quick to let us know there is a 1 and a half hour time limit for our visit. This was on a Saturday evening, so we kind of understood, but not welcoming at all! We were put at a table, on an enclosed patio(?) directly beside another table, with little to no space between chairs. None of the waitresses wore masks. We overheard the table next to us ask if why the waitress wasn't wearing a mask. She said,"It's hot and humid and not mandatory!" Whaaaat??! And absolutely NO DISTANCING! Our waitress was talking right in our faces , without a mask. Food was just ok but definitely not worth the money. Mojitos were $14 , and couldn't taste any alcohol. The service was slow and, for lack of another term, dysfunctional! All the staff seemed like this was the last place they wanted to be. Almost angry. So strange! The last straw was when we were about to walk back through the restaurant to leave, as I was putting my mask back on, the hostess said, " It's ok, don't worry about your mask". With at least 20 people shuffling around together shoulder to shoulder, I couldn't believe she was actually discouraging wearing a mask!! This place should not only be fined for health violations, it should probably be condemned. Do yourself a favour, choose somewhere else, with positive reviews. Or just stay home. read more

An absolute disappointment and weird vibe restaurant. It took forever to get our food, when it finally arrived, it was all wrong and had to be sent back. We got our main before getting our apps and they forgot one of the apps. As soon as we paid for our dinner we were asked to leave but there was many empty tables. And worst of all they included the tip on our bill - there was 4 of us! Later realized they charged 25% Tip!!! Should of read reviews before trying this place out. one and done! read more

Horrible - Will Never Go Again - Epic Disappointment What can I say? Hands down the worst dining experience and let down in the history of time. Came in with such high hopes, as on the surface, the decor and building looks amazing, they have live music on the back patio, I was expecting to be amazed. Turns out what was amazing, was how horrible the service could actually be. A friend and myself arrive and ask for a table for two, the restaurant is mostly empty except for two large groups, one on the back outdoor patio, and one inside. The women that greets us recommends out back, as that's where the DJ was, so we try, no tables, so have to come back in side. She seats us, but takes forever to come back to order our drinks, at least 15 minutes, so I go to the bar myself to order drinks. When I come back to the table with the drinks, the waitress seems almost annoyed I got drinks myself and asks "where did you get those?" and comments on how the guy at the bar is now going to complicate her bill. She then takes our food order, it's about 8:45pm at this point, we probably arrived around 8:30. It takes 1 hour from now for the food to arrive - Over this hour, she didn't check on us once. No do you want more drinks. No explanation for delay or apology. Nothing for one hour. Just serving drinks to the big group inside and chit chatting with people. At about 9:43pm my friend and I decide we had enough, and we're going to go settle up for our drinks and leave, we go to the bar, our waitress see's us, we explain we are leaving, now all of a sudden, she says its ready, and runs into the kitchen and immediately presents our orders. Makes me wonder how long they were ready. So, against our better judgement we decide to stay and eat. The food was pretty good, but not great. It is horrendously overpriced. I recognized this going in, but just hoped it would be really good. But I paid $22 for alright enchiladas that have no sides of any kind. My friend got 3 tacos - which also have no sides - and a very weak Piña colada, his bill was $37. It was at best $15-$20 worth of food and beverage at any sane price. We waited an hour to pay too much for food that took us 5 minutes to finish. When the waitress brought the bill, she finally apologizes / acknowledges the service was horrible, and explains the large groups and lack of staff. My friend inquires if we can get a discount of some sort and says "so what, half off?" She says "I gave you a pretty good price already" nodding her head, implying she did something for the trouble... we open the bill... NOTHING just the menu prices which are too high to begin with!! Who lies about giving a discount?? The most ridiculously bad experience, that went from the highest expectations, to worst outcome. Should have went to Taco bell. read more

This place is a vibe! The service is quick and friendly. My friends and I ordered a variety of dishes and everything was delicious! I ordered the ceviche which was was okay but my main was tacos al pastore--DELICIOUS! The prices are slightly higher than expected but quality of the food supports it. Based on the previous reviews, yes, the tip was included but we were a group of 8-so not unexpected. Yes, the place seems more crowded than it should've been. Yes, the safety protocols could be improved. Overall, I'm glad that I formed my own opinion of this restaurant. It was a fun evening! read more

After reading so many less than stellar reviews, i visited Yo Amos Tacos yesterday with low expectations and i was really hoping that i would be pleasantly surprised. Nope. The Good: - The restaurant itself is really nice. - Guacamole was good. Definitely the best thing i ordered. It was plain and simple, nothing out of this world, but good nonetheless. - The selection of hot sauces they bring to your table. The Bad: - The tacos. Which is really unfortunate when the name of the restaurant has the word "tacos" in it. I had the sampler of four tacos (beef, fish, chicken, pastor) and they were dry, boring, and falling apart. Even the delicious hot sauces couldn't save them. The tacos (albeit a decent size) were on the pricier side (about $5 a piece) which would be acceptable if they were delicious. Having used a groupon eased the pain of spending money on these tacos, but even at half price i wouldn't get them again. Would i return? No. For the love of food, get your damn tacos right! read more

I'm spoiled with fantastic Mexican food down town and Mexican food is my favorite. When I was given gift cards to try this place and the way it was described, I couldn't wait. Driving into the parking lot, I swear I was in Mexico. The façade is exactly the way I remember Mexico. It almost looks like someone grafitied the place with Mexican characters. Tiki torches were ablaze outside the front door and, the Latino music was loud. I was pumped! Inside, fantastic. My wife, myself and our 3 kids say in the back sun room. Perfect ambience. We ordered ceviche, guacamole, snapper and lobster tocos and, shrimp fajitas. This is where the disappointment came. The ceviche was obviously old as it was soggy and not very flavourful at all. No onions? Come on! The snapper was over cooked and came from less than fresh oil as it was dark. Ditto for the lobster, tough and chewy - over cooked. My kids enjoyed the fajitas. They were actually decent. I won't be returning. Too disapointing. read more

3/5 star service 4/5 decor and style 1/5 food DONT BE FOOLED BY THE GROUPON, 50% OFF THE FOOD ISNT ENOUGH This resturant serves some of the worst food ive ever had. I spent $45 on 6 tacos and mexican fries, however there was no beef, sourcream, cheese on any of the food. Just a bunch of veggies and soaked chicken thats looks like it came out of a can. Great place to drink and chill but for the love of God, avoid the food. read more

I ordered 1 pastor (pork) taco ($5) and 1 fish taco ($6). The pastor taco was very good. It was tasty and juicy without being saucy. The pork bits and the dressing were loosely piled high. They kept falling down when I ate the taco. There were so much stuffs on the corn tortilla that the tortilla broke in the middle. This was when I wished that it had double tortillas. (4 stars) The fish fillet in the fish taco was lightly breaded and fried (I confirmed that grilled fish filet was not an option. Yet). The fish fillet was moist and tender but it had no taste, as if it was not marinated. Since the fillet was not chunky enough, so together with the blandness, the fish taste didn't really make an impact to the enjoyment. The dressing was very fresh. It made the taco refreshing. (3 stars) The services was competent. I visited on Wednesday dinner time. There was a live band playing and singing Mexican songs. Overall, 3.5 stars. If I have a chance to experience more items in the future, I will revise the rating accordingly. read more
