1660 Kingston Rd, Pickering, ON L1V 5R2, Canada
Lively eatery serving traditional Mexican eats, from fajitas to chimichangas to pepper steak.
The food was freshly made, full of flavor, and served with love. The service from the lovely lady attending to us was warm and attentive, making us feel truly welcomed. The vibrant Mexican ambience added to the overall charm. It was the perfect spot to celebrate, and we’ll definitely be coming back!!
My girlfriend suggested this place and it was magical. The service is incredible. The food is absolutely delicious. The servings were huge. The cost is low for what you're receiving - massive home cooked meals with love. I absolutely recommend it 👌 I forgot to take photos when we were served. These are just my leftovers. Nom nom nom. Tacos. Taco Sald. Churros. Best Churros Ever!
This restaurant is truly a hidden gem! We came to celebrate my birthday and had a wonderful time. The staff was very welcoming and the decor is so cute. We were very satisfied with our meal, it was hearty, delicious and great value. My order was the veggie chimichanga, (my first ever) and I fell in love!!! Will definitely be returning! 🌮
I’ve been wanting to try here, so we went on a Monday. It said they opened at 5, but at almost 6 they were still closed so we started to make alternate plans, then the light came on and I’m so glad it did. Food was great, and service was so nice. Will be back for sure. Can’t beat the prices either.
Small place to get delicious and authentic Mexican food for a very affordable price and good portions. I ordered takeout with my friends. I got the taco salad, and basa fish. I highly recommend the basa fish, the sauce is amazing.
Cielito Lindo offers reasonably priced comfort food with a delightful touch of authenticity. The guacamole was great, perfectly complemented by their flavorful margaritas. I enjoyed the enchiladas and look forward to returning to sample more of their menu offerings."
The food here was just top notch. Tasted amazing, was so fresh you could hear the blender running whenever someone ordered 😂 Amazing price and great portions. Will definitely be back
First time eating here was amazing. This is a small, family run restaurant with great pricing and even better tasting food. Portion sizes were very good and filling. A bit of a wait on a busy Saturday evening, but the dine-in service was outstanding. This will be my go-to spot for Mexican cuisine in the area!
Disappointed I ve been waiting since Sunday to get some food from here as they are closed sundays. monday say 5pm they open but I m here in the rain and doors are still locked and lights off at 5:30 pm.
Amazing food. Great service. Hidden gem in Pickering. Will definitely be going back.
Great home style Mexican food. Good value for your money. Family restaurant vine
Wow what a fresh, delicious meal. I got tacos with no dairy and the meat was so flavorful that I didnt notice anything was missing. Now I need an excuse to drive back to pickering.
Mom and pop shop, food did not disappoint!!
This is a great little Mexican restaurant with friendly staff and delicious food. Prices are great too.
Gluten free friendly !!!!!!!So good I almost passed out, def will return thank you for the amazing food and amazing service !!! Very homey and welcoming I especially love the decor it s giving Mexico Dietary restrictions: Gluten free friendly !!!
Delicious and great priced
Casual family restaurant serving tasty Mexican food The only annoying thing is that they do not open their doors on time. They are mostly late to start as posted on their store Food
Outstanding authentic Mexican food.
By far the best Mexican foood ever
Authentic Mexican food. So glad we found this amazing family owned restaurant. The portions are huge and the price is exceptionally reasonable. Most important is the taste. We hadd the combo fajitas and Tabasco which is butlrito and enchilada. All were amazing. It was our first time they were so sweet explaining all the dishes. Id recommend this place eyes closed. Ill never eat elsewhere again for mexican. Glad we found this .
We came here for dinner and the service was excellent. Very friendly waitress and the food was hot and delicious. Prices were also very reasonable. I came with a Mexican man and he very much enjoyed the food. Very authentic. The establishment was very busy for a Tuesday night at 6:00 pm dinner time. Highly recommend.
Very warm welcome and excellent food. Very decently priced as well. Hard to find such good food at such prices. Must try their Pina Colada too!
Uber delicious food in an authentic setting. Food came out quick and was amazing. Can definitely recommend.
Tasty Mexican cuisine at affordable prices. Visited for the first time - came twenty minutes after opening time but door was locked and no one was around. Luckily hung around the area and restaurant opened soon afterward. Interior has cute decor, but could hear radio (not music) playing from the kitchen. Kindly served tortilla chips and salsas on the house. Had the chicken tacos and beef enchiladas, which come with Mexican rice, beans, and salad. Meals were made to-order fresh and modifiable. Portion size was great and filling. Chicken was a bit bland, but food tasted great all around.
Food is mediocre, a little shocked they had a 4.7 rating. The beef chimi was really good, but the chicken chimi was bland. The rest of my family also felt similar, we got the Mexican combo and fajitas. Food
Delicious home made food. I love that this is run by a real family. The decor was lovely and the restaurant was very clean Alejandro is the best
Great Mexican food
Food is always delicious.
I found the food here surprisingly bland for Mexican food. Twice Ive eaten here, and found the food underwhelming both times. I asked for a little extra cilantro in my enchiladas, and was dismayed to be told that they dont have any cilantro in the restaurant - what kind of Mexican restaurant doesnt have any cilantro in any of their food?! I found that odd.
I ve been going here for years and love the way the dishes taste like home cooked meals! Service is great too!
Beautiful restaurant, clean and is authentic mexican food, more tastefully than any franchise.
Great family run place. Authentic, delicious Mexican food and great service. I have been going there for over 10 years and quality has always been consistent.
Fantastic experience overall. Incredible service, excellent food and friendly atmosphere. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic Mexican cuisine! It is definitely a hidden gem, family friendly and quite affordable. Thank you!
Forget the all inclusive. Come here instead.
I ve only ever had the Burrito meal here so I can only speak for that but it s so delicious. Out of all the Mexican spots in the Durham region, this one is the best! The restaurant is quite small and not a lot of seating.
Excellent value for the money.
Delicious and affordable! Will be coming back for sure.
Authentic flavors coming out of a family kitchen, with prices that can t be beat! The enchiladas and Tres Leches dessert are MUST haves when you visit! Will definitely be back again soon
Great take out, normally I dine in, still happy.
I ve been going here for years and it is my favorite Mexican food hands down (including food I ve had in Mexico). The owners are lovely and friendly and know my order without asking. What more can I say, you must eat here.
A welcoming Mexican restaurant owned by a couple. The first time I went there the food brought me back to the time that I lived in Monterrey, Mexico. It was so delicious. Would highly recommend. #supportlocal
Good Mexican food
Low key family run restaurant that serves authentic Mexican dishes. An absolute hidden gem; must try! We tried the Guacamole, Enchiladas de Mole and Pollo Poblano, all were amazing. And you can t miss the horchata!
Great place for everyday Mexican food. I come here from time to time and have the calamari, chicken chimi, nachos. Service is great!
Amazing
Yum!
Cute little Mexican place with authentic homemade dishes, a must try.
I ve been coming here for years and never once have they disappointed me. I m very thankful to have such good authentic Mexican food in my area I hope this place will never close down. You guys are very much appreciated thank you for your service Cielito Lindo! 10/10.
What a great little spot. Never been there until tonight. Excellent food and great margarita. The best authentic Mexican food I have had. Great prices!
Super delicious, authentic Mexican food! Its a small restaurant with very cute decor. We ordered the Enchilada Suiza, Chorinachos, and Enchiladas with mole sauce. All super delicious, definitely recommend visiting!
This is our favourite restaurant. Try the Enchilada Suiza it s spicy and AMAZING. The service is fast, friendly, and the food is always fresh and deliciously perfect! Dine-in area is small and cheerful. Take-out is dependably excellent every time.
Got take out and it was amazing!! Ordered the enchilada suiza, it was delicious and pleasantly spicy. Reasonably priced too! Ill definitely be back.
Very good family owned restaurant, authentic Mexican cuisine, recommend anything made with beef
I got chicken enchiladas to go from here and they were amazing! The green sauce is delicious and the portions are large. There are not enough small businesses in Pickering with this quality of food so I will definitely be coming here more often
So far I ve truly enjoyed the experience. The food is great and love the little take out window where you can look into the kitchen. Very clean and the food is delicious!! Hot sauce is actually hot too lol. Ordered twice now, Chorizo quesadilla. I ended up craving it after I tried it for the first time. Come with a very generous serving of rice, beans and salad. All are so yummy! Can t wait to try more!
Friendly staff, bright and colourful decor, delicious food and cozy atmosphere! Highly recommend if you re looking for authentic Mexican food :)
A true Mexican restaurant. It is not fancy and the food is amazing. It feels like youre eating in Mexico. I loved it.
Sauces are canned, not very authentic Mexican food. It was supposed to be chorizo, but was ground meat. My wife did not enjoy her dish either.
A family run business! They are all very friendly, they make you feel like family. The food is amazing from the appetizers, to the meal choices, one word, authentic! I keep running into people I know there. Its definitely a place you have to go to and experience, youll keep coming back.
Great food, great prices at a low key location :)
The food at this place is one of my favorite things and I find the owners to be pleasant and engaging in conversation.
Seriously amazing food - just like what I ate in Mexico and New Mexico. And at a very affordable price.
Best Mexican food in Durham by far, highly recommended.
Love this place! Run by a lovely family. The food is delicious and the portions are generous for the price. Highly recommend!
This place is amazing.. I wish I lived closer so I can eat this everyday. Seriously.
Very flavourful food...and authentic. Dietary restrictions: They are able to accommodate diary allergies. Food : 5/5 |
Hidden gem for great mexican food. Small restaurant with amazing quality and good service. From salsa to chimi everything we ordered were delicious.
I ve been going to this restaurant since 2008 and it is phenomenal. The owners always treat us like family when we adrive and the food is ALWAYS fresh and delicious. Highly recco their shrimp dishes and chicken enchilada suizas with green tomatillo sauce. The best Mexican in Durham by far!
Amazing Mexican Food ! Cozy little restaurant with Mexican food you could tell was cooked fresh. Everything we had was delicious .. definitely one of the best tres leche cakes I have had. If you haven t tried the Tamarind Juice highly recommend as well. Prices and portions are excellent.
Highly recommend this place, very authentic. Food is always delicious and good portion sizes. Tried almost everything on the menu! Chorinachos are soooo good.
Amazing food.. great service.. Happy to support a local business
A very cute spot to dine in- food was very delicious and huge portions. Highly recommend the tres leches cake!
At a time where giant cookie cutter restaurants are everywhere, Cielito Lindo shines above them all (hands down!). Right off the highway in Pickering, this small restaurant is filled with character and charm, offering you the freshest foods of Mexico as if you were sitting in someone s kitchen. Owned by the cutest couple, everything from food to their delish drinks, this place will keep you coming back for more. It does for me! Try it once and you ll keep coming back for more.
Chimichangas were awesome!
We went there last night after confirming reservation. Arrived at right time 715pm. Waited till 850PM for food which we ordered immediately after arrival. Finished by 925PM. Hopeless service. Reminded for food 2 times without much success. Very small place and noisy. If you are hungry, please dont go to this place but if you plenty of time to sit in a small and overly crowded restaurant, it is fine.
Dietary restrictions: The chicken and beef is halal :)
Cielito Lindo is a charming neighborhood Mexican restaurant. Although not a big place the restaurant had a warm and inviting atmosphere. Service was friendly. The food was delicious and the prices were quite reasonable. Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for a cozy and satisfying dining experience.
3-4 time eating here and they are excellent every time. The food seems authentic, is flavorful, and our favourite are the enchiladas Suisa and the tres leches cake! The service is also so amazing and kind.
We ve ordered out and dined in, and the quality of the food is consistently excellent! It s a super small, unassuming location but everything we ve eaten has been so flavourful and satisfying. The Enchiladas Suiza are our favourite but make sure you leave room for the Tres Leches!
Got takeout from this place because another similarly-named Mexican restaurant in Ajax that has a very similar menu has prices that are 50% higher. I wasnt too surprised that the food at Cielito Lindo was EXCELLENT, much like the one in Ajax. Perfect Cinco de Mayo fare. We had the Tabasco special (superb) and the Chimi special (which my son essentially inhaled, so I assume it was good). The only things I would change are: use leaner ground beef, and add a little cilantro and lime to the guacamole to give it a kick. Otherwise, this place is perfect. Parking: In a strip plaza with enough parking, but it can become a little tight because its a popular place.
Great dining spot! The interior is quaint, and the lady at the counter was welcoming and friendly. Food is marvellous as well; if youre in search of authentic Mexican food in Pickering, this is the place.
Small family owned and run local favourite restaurant. The two owners are the chef and the server. They make foods fresh to order with friendly service. Highly recommended.
Food taste amazing. Staff is very kind and price is fair. Will definitely be coming back.
The restaurant absolutely nailed it with their delicious food and amazing atmosphere. After my second visit, I just had to share my experience. Its clear that they consistently deliver top-notch quality, making every visit a pleasure.
Family owned small and lovely place. Not sure about athenticity as I am not mexica but the food was really great. The staff was so welcoming and friendly. The vibe of restaurant was top notch. It is a small place and their prices are very affordable. portions are of good size too. The food was very fresh and tasty. Def recommend to go there, you can get one of combos they are very filling and just around $12-14.
SO GOOD! Both my wife and I said after two bites wow, this is great! We ll be back, over and over again.
Small restaurant that is so comfortable you feel as if your home, the food is extremely tasty and dont get my started on the refried beans absolutely delicious will definitely go back. Customer service was top notch the workers are friendly and helpful when navigating the menu.
Best Mexican food ever!
Food always excellent
Absolutely hidden gem for authentic Mexican food. The owners are lovey and you can definitely taste the love given to the food you receive. The price is a little more on the expensive side but that s to be expected. The flavours are there and it s absolutely delicious. Well worth it. Visit this place if you can!
Small family restaurant, the food is so tasty, service is good. I will come back
Delicious, friendly, cosy. What a wonderful little gem. Do yourself a favour and get the nachos with Mexican sausage. Perfection. Also they have horchata!! One of very few places that do! The prices are also a steal and the portions are huge. Please support if you can.
food and service was great. would go again when in the area
Excellent food!
This place truly is the most authentic tasting Mexican I ve ever had in the GTA. Having a family home for over 30 years in Mexico I can tell the difference. It s worth the drive for you to see for yourself. I couldn t give them a perfect five star review because my wife wanted to try the Basa fish and at lunchtime they already said they didn t have it available.
Large portions, excellent taste!
Our go to place for Mexican food Casual place for hangout with friends or family Love their chips and guacamole Fresh and light salsa All in all very flavorful food
Best beef tacos in the area. Would drive from Scarborough to get these!
Excellent food, great prices. Would definitely recommend.
Cielito Lindo it s a family-run business where you can find portions, price, and service really good. Suggestion nachos with beef
Food is top notch...!
Great hole in the wall spot! Very friendly staff, nothing fancy about the inside, and great value for the food. Very simple food done right. Ordered the nachos fiesta & enchiladas and both tasted great and fresh. Will definitely be back to try some other things on the menu!
Amazing food I am definitely going back in the near future! Service was amazing too!
Perfect spot for mexican food in pickering.
This place is such a hidden gem, I almost didnt post this review to keep it secret. We get takeout. Its fantastic. Great prices. Would recommend this place to anyone.
Read about the great reviews and we wanted to try this place out. I have to say that the customer service is a bit slow. It took about 5 minutes for someone to greet me and hand me a menu. Then from there, it took another 15 minutes between ordering my takeout order and paying before I waited another 15-20 minutes for my food. Besides all this, the food is spectacular. We had shrimp, chicken, veggie, and ground beef tacos. They were delicious. The chicken tacos could use a bit more seasoning however they provided some hot sauce and Mariana/Tomato sauce. This is the first authentic Mexican restaurant Ive tried that wasnt overpriced and in downtown Toronto. 3 tacos for 12.95 is a great deal. Definitely coming back to this place in this future.
Enjoyed with authentic and delicious Mexican food. which may get you to Mexico.Have a wonderful experience with family.
This is a gem of a place located near the jucntion of Kingston and Brock. The place is small and has a few tables and is run by a small team. The food is exquisite and delightful. Must try the chorizo its so good. We tried enchiladas and burritos with it and absolutely loved it. The chimichanga is great to and best part is everything is make to order. Highly recommended.
The food absolutely beautiful and authentic. Love this place!
This is a hidden gem. If you love Mexican food, you need to make it a priority to visit or order. The value here is also incredible. It s half the price of eating at other Mexican alternatives in the area and the quality and consistency is much higher. Since we first visited, we re ordering from here At least once a week. A few things to know - I would call this more of a café than a restaurant if you re dining in. There are a handful of plain tables, but you re not going to be blown away by the ambiance or the service, but that s not really the point. This is a family cooking great food at a great price, in a simple environment. Owners, if you re reading this, we would love if you added a fresh salsa option to your menu. And people may kill me, but you should raise your prices.
Service was a little slow but honestly, its worth the wait. Staff was friendly and the food was fantastic. Portions seemed massive. I need a nap.
Great food. Very reasonable Nice local business
Great food, portions, customer service and prices
It was our first-time at this restaurant and the experience was fantastic! If you are looking for authentic Mexican food this is the place to go
I was doubtful to try this restaurant as my previous experiences with authentic Mexican have all left something to be desired. I can honestly say this restaurant was a pleasant surprise and on of the best meals I ve enjoyed as much in years. The service was impeccable and the food was clearly made with care and love as you don t just throw together meals that are that perfectly seasoned and balanced. If you haven t tried it please do but take the time to go in, you won t be disappointed!
First time eating here and I must say, the cozy ambiance, the friendly service and the super tasty food are all amazing. Its a small family run establishment where the dad is the cook and the son the waiter. The prices are reasonable and the potion size is great too.
Have to add a review. The food was awesome you cant go wrong with anything you order. The service was great and helped me get the food into my car. Caring of customers goes a long way and cant give them any less than 5*
I have to say this was the best Mexican place I ve been to in Durham. The chimichanga was superb! I will definitely come back to try more of their dishes.
Delicious and authentic Mexican food, with friendly and great service as well.
Delicious everything
The food was too good I had to get another portion, I also got a pina colada and it was so yummy.
Nice food and serving
Mole is excellent
Excellent Mexican food
Arrived here to find it to be closed without any notice. I am sure the food is great but the times are wrong
Great food. Very small place.
This place is pure heaven, every time Ive been here, its always a warm and cozy experience. Its like eating food at home thats served with care and love. People who own this place treat you like family and feed you well. You dont have to go to Mexico to have the best Mexican food ;)
I have been coming here for years. Continues to be the best spot for mexican food in Durham hands down.
Hands down my most favourite place to go for authentic Mexican food! Been a repeat customer for 5 years Food
Delicious food! Great service!
Always have great good and service, love stopping here for a quick dinner.
Good service but wait time is long
Great experience:)
I ve been to many Mexican places in Mexico and GTA - this one is the real deal. Nothing fancy, very reasonably priced, but the food is great! Beef fajitas were delicious
The only place serving authentic horchata made from rice water instead of cinnamon
Ordered chicken Burritos w/rice salad refried Beans, Taco Salad . Everything was good, fairly Authentic. Was not impressed with plain Chicken Thighs. Suggestion to Owners/Chef , use chicken breast instead of Thighs . Pound meat flat ,,season and cook on high heat for char . Food : 4/5
Great food! The cute dishes were definitely a plus!
Best authentic Mexican food in Pickering
I was blown away from how good the food and service was. I asked them to chose a meal for me and they made a combination of beef and chicken that you can only get at a high end restaurant in Mexico. I will be back here often as Im already addicted!
I order out from here a lot. Consistent taste, great value for money.
Hands down, best authentic Mexican food in Pickering. Prepared with skill and care, its so much better than the big-box retail offerings. Support locally owned business and try it, you wont be disappointed.
Honestly, just not good. Portion sizes are terrible and the food looks and tastes like it s from a cafeteria. I ve been to Mexico many times and this is not a good example of that cuisine. Skip it.
UPDATE: Restaurant has finally re-opened! Yay!! This a small, family run Mexican restaurant in a Pickering plaza. Authentic home-cooked Mexican food is available to eat in or take out. In addition to regular menu, they offer daily specials, kids meals, variety of entrees, etc. and is licenced offering sangria, beers, margaritas, etc. This is a local eatery, with neighbourhood regulars, and is a decent place to take the kids. Food is always good and authentic. As it is a small family run restaurant, service can sometimes be slow on busy weekend nights but the food is worth the wait.
So glad theyve reopened!! Always amazing food
I am so incredibly happy this place is open. Such wonderful food, great staff&owner. Authentic Mexican
Absolutely delightful food .. but with very slow and inattentive service .. We had the following: 1. Camarones Calientes : Shrimp in spicy sauce. Just passable. 2. Sizzling Fajitas for two (chicken) : Amazing flavour and quite a large portion 3. Tabasco create-a-combo : One Beef Burrito in a red sauce and one Chicken Enchilada is a tangy green tomatillo sauce. The tomatillo sauce was the best - but the scene stealers were the creamy refried beans and the rice 4. Basa Fish with Camarones : Crisp fried Basa fish and shrimp served doused with a brilliant Chipotle sauce. This was the best of the lot !!! 5. Fried Ice Cream - This was a real let down 6. Churros - Oh the churros - they were so magical, fresh out of the fryer and drizzled with cinnamon sugar. Great way to end a great meal 7. Sodas to drink The bill amount came up to exactly $100. Please be prepared to wait - both for ordering and for the food to be delivered to your table. We went around 2:30 pm on a Saturday when some of the other diners were about to leave and even though there werent enough patrons then, we still had to exercise a lot of patience and fight the urge not to walk out after getting frustrated with the wait.
They have reopened but maybe they are too busy as their dishes have gotten sloppy. I ordered a few thing and nachos, hot home and the nachos were cold like the didnt place in oven or microwave passing on them next time.
Small local family restaurant, first time visit. Best Mexican food in the area. Food taste yummy, good portion, affordable price, I dont usually like bean sauce, but I finish everything on the plate.
My family ate nachos, chorizo Burrito & enchilada and a beef chimichanga and everyone enjoyed the food. The service was also excellent.
One of my favorite restaurants. The food is flavourful and authentic. The menu has lots of variety. The owners are lovely. If your order is taking a while, don t worry! It s worth the wait.
One of the best Mexican restaurants in the area!! This place was closed for over three years because of a fire in the next unit. The food and service was so good. Please support this little family run restaurant.
This is a MUST visit Mexican eatery. Now Im not a super experienced connoisseur of Mexican food... but we really enjoyed our meals and the service. Very friendly and fresh. The flavours were delicious and I highly recommend the churros(!) for a beautiful dessert. You wont regret it
Very friendly owner!! Food was delicious! Loved the interior as well, it s so authentic. Hidden gem in Pickering!
Authentic Mexican food -- The Enchiladas Suizas taste just as good as in Mexico (Sanborns). Service can be slow though, so be patient
Love this place! The food is so good. Best at all times
Excellent food as usual
Go, right now!!! I had the fish tacos, soooo good!!!
One of the few authentic restaurants left... good food, service, atmosphere. Shoutout to Alejandro and his family keep it up!
First time trying out authentic Mexican food. Went in there not knowing what to order. Asked the lady for recommendation for 3 dishes. Super friendly, chose the 3 dishes for me!!
Pleasantly surprised by its size quaint appearance. The food and service were top notch. A very casual Mexican restaurant with a relaxed atmosphere. This was our first visit and not certain of what to expect. Had a great time and enjoyed everything placed infringe of us. Wished I had taken a few more descriptive photos, next time. We will be back!
Amazing small local family own restaurant. The food flavour took me back to the days of eating back in Mexico & Latin America. Friendly staff and great location.
Tried this place for the first time. While the actual restaurant isnt every impressive, the food was very good. Portion size was great, as was the taste. We will definitely be going back again.
Delicious!! Will definitely be back. Great price for what you get as well.
Food was amazing and staff was very friendly. This place is definitely now on my go to list for authentic mexican food.
Great place for authentic Mexican veg food ! Leave you with a great taste, highly recommend! Vegetarian options: All items can be made veg Wheelchair accessibility: Ground level, no large bumps
We discovered this little gem late! We came for lunch around 12pm on a Wednesday and were transported to Mexico with the bright colours and quirky decor. Here is my assessment: We ordered the Tabasco Create-a-combo and the Beef tacos (2 soft, 1 crispy) Both dishes were so flavourful and delicious! every single item was perfectly seasoned. Theyre homemade hot sauce was so good that I took some home with me! We got the flan for dessert and this is why I took off one star. Although the presentation and the flavour was excellent, the texture was a bit dense. We will definitely come back here and try other dishes!!
Cute and friendly atmosphere.. food was authentic, delicious and made with love. Service was amazing - a little gem in Pickering!
Great authentic Mexican restaurant.
So glad to see Cielto Lindo is back operating as this is arguably the best Mexican restaurant in Durham maybe even the GTA. They have been serving up great food since 2006 until a fire next door in 2019 forced their shop to shut down. This family run restaurant stayed determined through the pandemic to make sure they would re-open and they finally did in March 2022. Finally stopped in today on a Monday, a day most restaurants choose to close. Ordered the Tabasco combo with a beef burrito in a spicy red sauce and a chicken enchilada in a green tomatillo sauce. Wow, fantastic flavour, it was sooo good. The rice was great as well along with the fresh salad and perfect creamy refried beans. Very large portions and amazing value at only $12.95. The churros were delicious as well. 3 large sticks of perfectly fried churros, crispy on the outside and warm and moist in the inside complimented by 3 different dips; strawberry, caramel and authentic sweet dark chocolate. Perfect way to end a great meal. Family run restaurant with great service. Friendly staff with a smile on their face. Forget all the other Mexican restaurants, this is the only one worth visiting for dine in or take out. Great food, large portions and very reasonable prices.
Thank GOODNESS this place is open again because we moved to the area during its unfortunate closure. We called ahead and ordered takeout for dinner (guac & chips and the Alcapoco plate to share because we had a big lunch) and it was ready to go when we walked through the door. Were big eaters and it was more than enough food for us. The beef burrito was my personal fave and definitely something Ill be ordering again. This is the spot anyone in/visiting our household will be buying Mexican food from from now on!
Humble and friendly owners/staff, authentic food, well-priced, and good service. 5 stars.
The food here is always excellent, with great, friendly service.
Food was great. The staff was very friendly. Keep up the great work..
Our first time here, loved the ambiance, food and the family who run this small little homely Mexican restaurant. Since it s a family run restaurant there s a bit of a wait when you come in during busy time, but they work really hard to cater on time.. For us it was worth the wait! Took about 15 mins.
Lovely people ,great customer service,thank you
Nachos are awesome. Enchiladas were top notch. Going back here soon.
Randomly found this place from Google Maps and I love it! Excellent food, excellent service. It s a couple who run the place and they re amazing. I had the taco salad and I couldn t finish it. I will be returning because I want to try every single thing on their menu. I returned and tried a whole lot of delicious food and now I will be a regular. Be warned, their spice levels are the real deal.
The food is great!
In appetizers I had the Molettes and in main course I had enchiladas with mole sauce. Enchiladas was okay but molettes was really yummy. A family run shop, good quantity, overall good experience. Vegetarian options: Has a few decent vegetarian options Parking: Is located in a strip mall, so parking is available
We have been to this place couple of times and enjoyed a lot. They have many options for vegetarian. I would definitely recommend this one if you are looking for authentic Mexican food.
Great service and ambiance. Affordable prices compared to other mexican restaurants. Ordered Tabasco combo and Enchilada. Both were great and very hot!(temperature) Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options available. Parking: Lots of parking in the strip mall.
Very good food
I tried many Canadian Mexican restaurant. This is the first place where I feel like American Mexican restaurant. You will welcomed with free Nachos and salsa in beginning - please comment if there are any other mexican restaurant in Canada where you welcomed with Nachos and Salsa. I tried Chimichanga and it was really nice.
