| - One of my favorite restaurants - the flavors are so bright, fresh and authentic. Love their pulpo (octopus) ceviche (which unfortunately was not on the menu last time we visited).
The margarita on the rocks is nice and strong, though I cannot tell the difference between ones made with cheaper tequila vs premium...
Seafood is always fresh and very well prepared: taquitos la perla, tostadas Vallarta, tostadas la tun are all excellent. One of the meat dishes that I would recommend would be cochinita pibil (very tasty, although the mains are fairly large and better suited for sharing).
Their Mayan chocolate desert is made with dark chocolate and cinnamon cream - I like the dark chocolate, but I am not big fan of cinnamon (I guess you can ask them to skip on the cinnamon cream all together).
Service is laid back and somewhat lacking, but the atmosphere is very nice, and family friendly. In combination with Mexican music and decor, it does remind me of lovely Puerto Vallarta vacations:)
Again, compared to many other Mexican restaurants in TO, this place comes on top.
