  • Went here the other night. I love it when a friend recommends a restaurant to me that's in the downtown core and then I find another location on Queen St. E! So much closer for us and the parking situation is ace! We found a parking right in front and parking is free after 6pm!!! Ok enough about that onto the rating which I will break down into pros and cons as it is easier. PROS: - While the restaurant is a bit oddly laid out, it's got ample space which is great for busier nights. We went on a weekday night and so there was no wait time but I imagine it gets really busy on weekends - Staff is amazing. No seriously. They constantly checked on us, cleared our plates, filled our waters and we were able to make multiple orders with different staff. They never gave us that look like "uh hello I ain't yo server". I wanted to pay the bill covertly and the only person near me was a girl at the bar. I expected a "wait for your server" but nope! Gladly helped and made the whole 'operation' run smoothly lol. We also got good recommendations as to what to order as well as a tip: order 2 tacos first and see how you feel...then order more if need be. I was full after 2 so that worked out nicely - I will go into more detail but the food was so tasty. I went with a foodie friend of mine and she kept saying how happy she was because it was so good CONS: - I think several reviewers have mentioned this but...the music is actually comically loud. I didn't notice it at first until I realized I was yelling at my friends to be heard. I find it an odd choice and it doesn't really add anything to the ambience. Maybe bring it down a few decibels? - We got a chips and dip platter and we ran out of chips so we asked if we could have more. We only needed maybe 5 more chips to finish up the dip. We were charged $4.00 for them. I actually knocked off a star for this because that has never happened to me before...I mean come on are we supposed to eat the dip with our hands?! Also tortilla chips are like 5 cents. If we had known we would have wrapped them up and taken them home! Ah well. - Price. It doesn't seem like it at first but once you order multiple tacos, appetizers and drinks, it really adds up! Minus tip, our bill came up to $120 for 3 people. Maybe this is the norm I dunno...but I did feel that it was a bit much. Not complaining too much though because the meal was good. WHAT WE ORDERED: Sorry can't remember the exact names: Beef Tacos: Amazing. Best one of the night. The toppings compliment perfectly. ($4.75) Chicken Tacos: Only ok but still tasty. ($4.75) Fish Tacos: Tasty as well but similar to other places I've been. I think I may like Grand Electric's version slightly better. ($4.75) Pork Hock Taco: The special of the night, similar to pulled pork. My hubs said it tasted the same as the carnita taco but with a different sauce ($4.75) Carnita Taco: Only ok but tasty ($4.75) Ceviche Taco: My friend said this one was really good ($6.25) Dip platter: Was only ok, could have passed on it plus the chip situation mentioned above didn't help ($14+$4 for extra chips) Ribs: Holy crap were these good. The sauce was amazing. Only wish there were more than 4 on the plate ($12) Churros: Really, really delicious. Comes with an amazing dipping sauce ($6) Popsicles: Ok so the staff mentioned that they were known for this so we ordered. Hubs got the cookie one and said it was very good. My friend and I got the chocolate peanut butter and we weren't huge fans as it was just a fudgesicle with peanuts on top. And the peanuts were a bit too salty for our liking. I wish I got the Corn Pops one. ($4/each) Overall, I MIGHT go back but I'm mainly just glad we tried it and have good memories of the place. Oh one more thing! We were comped one extra taco! It was so nice of them and I don't really know why. Could be because they accidentally made an extra one?
