| - On a rainy June day in Toronto, my boyfriend and I went for a stroll along Corso Italia trying to avoid the rain, while also filling our bellies with food! We spotted some great Yelp reviews of this place and tucked in, just in time, to get some grub.
One thing I will warn you about immediately is that the portions are very generous! Especially for those used to the meagre portions found in other Mexican places in the city, this place does not leave you hungry and waiting for more. We made that mistake when we ordered delicious tacos and the vegetarian nachos and we had to leave half the nachos behind! The reason is that each table gets complimentary tortilla chips served with 5 different bowls of toppings. Three are different sauces, a bowl of limes and a bown of diced fresh onions and cilantro. You've already started and you didn't even know it yet! The tacos come with at least six flour tortillas and enough meat and veggie to OVERSTUFF all six of them and still leave some on the plate to shovel off with your forks!
The ambiance is that of a family-owned/run business. Patrons are strangers, family and friends and when we went, there was a children's birthday party winding down (that is, the adults were winding down while the children were running wild) it's definitely a louder atmosphere since there are lots of families, but the staff are super friendly and the food came really fast. They have a great selection of sodas, flavoured water and other beverages as well.
I'm going to reiterate what I said earlier, come with an appetite and you won't be disappointed!
