| - 3.5*. Pretty good! I still prefer Wilbur around the corner, but this place was decent, and is definitely a King West-area spot you should try at least once! We arrived around 6:30 PM on a Friday night and it was very busy. We reserved in advance and we were seated right away.
First, ambiance and service. Good, attentive service, but almost to a fault. Our server tried very hard to upsell their menu, even though we clearly tried to tell her we didn't want to order anymore. Ambiance was casual, lively, with a very neighborhood/community feel to it - some tables are pretty close together, so it makes for a nice intimate environment.
Second, the food. We ordered Guacamole ($6.00) to start, and 3 tacos (Tinga De Pollo ($4.75), Bistec ($4.75), and the Campechano ($5.00)). Overall, pretty good but not the best. We've definitely had better guacamole elsewhere - it lacked flavour and value to portion size wasn't the best. The tacos were decent and portion size was fine - our favourite was the Bistec. Good flavour, but not the best tacos we've had.
Overall, a good spot for a nice casual dinner out - the place was full of families, couples, and groups of friends. It's a nice spot for a nice easygoing meal.
