My God, the best fish tacos I've ever had in my life! So fresh, it's almost as though they fished them out of baja Verdun this morning!

One of the only places in the world where they serve a proper Margarita using Cazadores Tequila...

Wow wow wow. Best tacos I've ever had. Food & drinks were delicious. Everything tasted so fresh. Staff was friendly. We had the birria lamb, shrimp, Korean steak, shrimp & chicken tacos. You have to try the Fuego margarita...a bit spicy but oh so tasty. There are also different flavors of lemonade. Passion friut lemonade was my choice. No complaints. 10/10

Really enjoyed the classic margaritas, guac, cornbread & shrimp tacos! 🌮 The cauliflower tacos were a little underwhelming, but they still went down fine. Amazing mural & so much colour in their decor. Friendly, funny staff too. 🙌

Mais quelle belle surprise pour le brunch! Les quesadillas au fromage, champignons & truffe sont absolument incroyables. Mon copain a pris les enchiladas qui étaient aussi excellentes. Le tout accompagné d'une petite bière mexicaine & d'un margarita préparé à la perfection, c'était définitivement une belle découverte pour bruncher sur la Wellington! Nous connaissions déjà le Escondite pour ses tacos mais pas pour bruncher, nous reviendrons c'est certain. :)

Jose was the best server we could have possibly asked for! Super kind & helpful & recommended the fiesta on the table (the best the restaurant had to offer) & it really was fantastic. Would highly recommend everything, but the mango salad & ribs were to die for. Leche margarita was deadly. Churros were mind blowing. I want to come back for my birthday in January with all my friends & fam! ❤️

Très bon tacos & super ambiance! Les employés sont supers sympathiques & rapides. Le Margarita est bon, mais un peu trop dilué dans les glaçons à mon goût.
