I was told about this place by a guy I work with who mentioned that it was a pretty good option for tacos.
I walk here from Spadina on a warm afternoon. Soon after arriving I realized that I had unreasonably high expectations based on the information I had about this place from yelp and the guy I work with.
It is my position that the Grand Electric is inauthentic in what it is trying to achieve. Therefore it may sometimes provide a passably good experience but, will like any posser, on close inspection fail to deliver on its promise.
I had the fish taco and Jesus Juice.
The taco failed to impress me.
I did not want onions on my taco but was told that I had to have onions as no substitutions are allowed. I can appreciate the policy of no substitutions if the food I am ordering is a complex gourmet meal with many steps required in its preparation prior to me placing the order. A taco is not such food. Most food trucks would thus outperform the Grand Electric in this regard.
Jesus Juice was a mediocre cocktail.
For some reason the bartender would occasionally stick his tongue out of his mouth and bit down on it for no apparent reason. A bit bizarre!
I found the service a bit passive aggressive and generally uninterested in creating a pleasant dining experience.
