| - I've been a handful of times now, and am ready to go back. They have the best guacamole I've found in the city. I'm from California and highly suspicious of "mexican" food in Canada, but this place does relatively well. My favourite dish is the chicken burrito - the chicken is well seasoned and tender, the tortilla was baked and soft, and it was no problem to substitute guacamole for cheese, but I don't know how I feel about lettuce inside the burrito - would prefer some beans and/or rice. The rice on the side was a bit bland, but everything else was perfect.
There does seem to be only one guy ever running the place (bartending, hosting, and waiting), and the last time I was there we waited a further 20 minutes after we asked for the bill before I went and asked again. He's friendly enough, though.
It's nice and dark inside, with a big patio out back shaded by an old tree. Beer is expensive ($7 pint) but margaritas and sangria are reasonable. It's a great relaxed date or easy dinner out.
