Talk about an unexpected and delightful discovery! We were headed to an Indian fast-food place nearby when we realized it was closed, so we just looked around and, luckily for our taste buds, spotted El Pocho Antojitos tucked away in a side street.
The atmosphere was delightful - warm, cozy, with beautiful contemporary Mexican feel. The waitress was very welcoming and understanding of our dietary preferences - vegetarian and no eggs. We got three dishes - tostadas, tacos and a salad - and each one was so delicious. My personal favorite were the tostadas. Often Mexican dishes all taste the same despite of the shape and here this wasn't the case at all. Each item had its distinctive flavor and feel, and we loved them all.
We chatted with the lovely waitress after our meal and learned that the owner is from California - that explained it all! Thanks so much for bringing good Mexican food to Toronto. It's a rarity ;-).
We will be back!
