Food here is great. First time we went was for cinqo de mayo. We were seated in the dining side. The booth was very odd to sit in but that's ok. All the food was great besides the calamari which was very underwhelming. Cocktails were also delicious. The music was mostly authentic Mexican but unfortunately switched to terrible reggaeton style as the night progressed. Churros are yummy. Unfortunately the second time I booked, we were seated on the side with the bar. The bartender shook his drinks like you wouldn't believe. I felt like a was being pranked on a show. I couldn't hear or think & neither could my mother, mother in law or grandma. Poor ladies! He kept shaking & shaking drinks so aggressively for really no reason at all. No cocktail needs to shaken that long & hard for each drink it was insane. Food again was delicious & the spicy brownie is literally very spicy! Actually not pleasant as the spice isn't tastey just uncomfortably spicy. Unfortunately the day I bring my mother's & grandma they decide to play loud bumping reggaeton all night. Between that & the shaking drinks we pretty much couldn't hear eachother talk the whole time. My baby didn't seem to mind 🤣 I'll go back but only on the dining side or outside. Never near the bar & that bartender again please! & also just play authentic Mexican music. At least until like... 830pm so people can just relax & dine not feel like they are at a club.View more

Très décevant car ils n'acceptent pas de retirer les oignons crus (ou marinés) de leurs plats. Dommage, le menu est intéressant mais si on n'est pas capable de manger d'oignons crus, le 2/3 du menu est inaccessible. Notez que leur margharita est excellente à mon avis!View more

Décevant. Nous n'avons pas vraiment été bien reçus. La table qui nous a été assigné était au milieu du passage & comme la porte était ouverte pour le service à la terrasse, c'était un courant d'air. On n'a pas voulu nous assigner un autre endroit. La serveuse était correcte. La nourriture est correcte, mais n'en demandez pas trop. On est loin de la finesse de Tamales, pour ceux qui ont connu. Pareil pour le menu: on parle beaucoup Tacos/Burritos/Enchiladas, mais ce n'est pas très varié. & trop de gras. L'ambiance est bruyante, & probablement voulue ainsi. Donc tout le monde doit parler fort. Cocktail & ambiance comme dans les 5 à 7 j'imagine. Donc les gens se reconnaitront à aimer cela. Pas moi.View more

We had a great experience at El Gordo. The only thing that was better than the atmosphere was the amazing service. Our server was actually that night's manager. He was very pleasant & really knew his stuff. The owner stopped by a couple to check on us too. It was a great evening. I recommend El Gordo if you want a great experience.View more

Belle ambiance & très bon service ! Je mets seulement 3 étoiles car je trouve que la carte est un peu chère. Minimum 15$ (hors taxes & pourboire) c'est trop cher pour 2 tacos ... D'autres établissements bien connus du centre ville en proposent 3 pour le même prix, voir 1 $ de -. A titre indicatif nous avons payé 66$ pour 2 (2 bières & 2 plats de tacos).View more
