We went to El Gordo very randomly with no expectations, & it ended up being such a great surprise! The fish ceviche was really tasty & fresh. The birria is definitely a must - so flavorful & satisfying. I also loved that the carnitas tacos were nice & fatty.

& their margarita was really good too!

Overall, a great unexpected find - I'd definitely go back.

Went with a friend before a show! I had reserved in advance as I read it can get busy at times. We arrived & the place wasn't too busy, a few groups were seated. It was delicious! We shared fried calamari & chips+dip as an entree & devoured our mains. I got the fried chicken tacos & she got the grilled chicken burrito & it was delish! Definitely recommend!

I was very disappointed with the Food, flavor & service.
Over priced for so little quantity. The soup which I was informed was big came cold & hardly filled with anything for 10$. I WOULDNT RECOMMEND it.

I had the Birria Taco than came 3 tiny ones with corn for 22$ not worth it, it lacked depth & flavor I had to drown it with hot sauce to get anything. I would say 2/10

I've had better Mexican food for cheaper elsewhere.

The Shrimp Ceviche was alright nothing special from a what I can only assume was precooked & pre packaged pre frozen shrimp you can buy at any grocery store.

The Service was subpar which wouldn't have mattered if the food was good. The Atmosphere was nice but not good enough for a good review. Definitely disappointed & wouldn't recommend or come back.

My Fiancé & I went to El Gordo for the first time after reading online reviews. We were pleasantly surprised & agreed with the positive feedback. We found the atmosphere to be relaxed which was what we were looking for . The Sunday special for 2 of Chicken or Tofu Fajitas was our choice for our first visit ( but definitely not our last ) & we were very happy with it. It was delicious & a generous sizzling pan with the usual accompaniments of 8 soft Tacos , Pico de Gallo, Sour Cream, & Salsa . We chose a bottle of their house wine which was an Organic Bio Tempranillo from Spain. The price was very reasonable.

For dessert we had the traditional Churros & Flan & were happy with both along with an Americano/ Canadiano.

The service was exceptional, courteous, friendly , made us feel like honoured guests or family. We were especially happy with our server , Simon who is a definite asset to your Restaurant. He has the perfect personality for the service profession.
We would also like to give a shout-out to Malik. He too is great in the service profession. Personality wise, these two rate a 5/5 + 🌟⭐?

We will be returning & cannot wait for Summer Terrasse weather.
Thank you to one & all at El Gordo.
Two new fans,
Sharon & Ian Clyde

Accueil chaleureux, tacos décadents, ambiance tamisée. Assez chouette sans prétention.

Great nonchalant atmosphere, it's close to the theater so, it's a must with friends before the show. They did have some vegetarian options.
The resto is Mexican themed so you have to like tacos, burritos, quesadillas, mescal drinks, with some hot sauce & so on. You can always ask for changes & they will kindly do so. Good service.

This place has an excellent ambience, we ordered Camarones (TACOS) & Gringas (Al Pastor)- Quesadillas, the Quesadillas was just amazing must try & also perfect quantity. I would like to mention Simon, who was very kind & took care with precision.
Would love to visit again!
