Visited Lily's on a whim for a light lunch. We were not disappointed! Ordered 3 soft shell taco's for $18. Had chicken, steak, and tongue. The meat for all 3 was so tender and flavorful! Staff were all very friendly and efficient. Sat inside because we didn't realize till we left what a lovely patio they had out back. Would definitely return to this hidden gem!

I gave them a 5 star because the food was really good, but that being said, the prices were really high. Cathy had the veggie bowl, and I had the chicken bowl, along with a soda each and that came to over 50 dollars.

Went in for takeout and practiced my Spanish a bit with the owners. I ordered 3 tacos with different fillings. They were delicious. The resto has an authentic Mexican vibe with the choice of decor. A village feel, nice lighting and quaint picture frames with Mexican landscapes as if you're there looking outside at the scenery.

We frequently search and dine at taco restaurants, which are plentiful in Toronto area. Lilys tacos in Simcoe by far are the best tacos we had. We ordered shrimp (3 tacos) and Pastor (4 tacos). They were flavourful, tasty and very filling. We especially liked double tortillas. We would highly recommend this restaurant!

Lily is a fantastic chef. Henry is very helpful as well. Grace who rang us up was very patient and explained everything to us. The lady that first explained the menu to us was so nice! We live just north of Toronto, and the food we had here was better than the Mexican restaurants we have been to. That is including Toronto. Quality ingredients and their friendliness makes this the best Mexican restaurant! We will definitely be back for more delicious food and to chat with all of them again soon. Thank you!

Authentic Mexican family run restaurant. The tacos were made with fresh ingredients and very tasty. The fajita bowl was the perfect combination of veggies, steak, beans, rice, and shredded cheese. The atmosphere was very inviting and interesting to see the imported products from Mexico. Although we didn t eat on the patio, it was spacious with lots of table with umbrellas.Bathrooms were clean and maintained. Owners (Lily & Henry) and staff were very pleasant and genuinely appreciative for the business.We will definitely be back.

August 22, 2024

How this has a 4.9 rating is beyond me. It was literally the blandest and smallest tacos I have ever had in my life. Sadly I would pick Taco Bell over this place. I got three different meats and they all tasted more or less the same which is basically zero flavour at all. Im not a massive eater but it did take 6 tacos (tax and tip came to $50) to fill me up which def wasnt worth it. Server was friendly but it really was a terrible meal.

★★★
August 22, 2024

The food was absolutely bland, had Quesabirrias which was overpriced for what you got. $30 for three and a bottle of coke, prepay and pre-tip for food that couldn t even be served at our table. Not going there again.

I see all the railings are 4-5 stars I m thinking maybe I just tried it on a bad day. We got 3 shrimp and 3 steak tacos as well as a burrito with 3 drinks for just under $100. The meat didn t have any seasoning/flavour (maybe it s normal) but other than that it was okay. (Kind of just taste like a roast beef minus the salt, with ju) The homemade hot salsa was very good , fresh tortilla chips, and the service was amazing and friendly. It s nice to see all the things you can buy as well in the restaurant.

We love this restaurant! Its like we were transported into Lilys homelands. We were greeted by the owner with a smile and took his time to go through the menu and his recommendations. His recommendations were spot on. All we can say is a 100 star WOW! The food is absolutely amazing. Its made with so much love, the food was absolutely perfect. The crunchiness of the taco, flavourful pork and cheese was well balanced and so delicious. We also ordered the Carmones Diabla. The shrimp was so incredible, I couldnt get enough. It was so nice to sit and chat with the one and only Lily. She came out and had her lunch next to us and made us feel like family. We love a great story. Their story is a testament to hard work, the love for her culture and for her people. This place is more than just a restaurant, its a dynamic space. Thank you Lilys Tacos. We will be back often.

The service and food was amazing! I got the nachos, and they definitely didnt spare on the toppings. Food was flavourful and fresh. Only down side is the lack of vegetarian options. Vegetarian options: Very few vegetarian options, but they willingly replaced the meat with beans on my order.

First and foremost, the food here was really good, we visited here for the first time recently with some friends and we re really happy with the food quality. The portion sizes were decent, the staff was super friendly and all In all everything we ordered was excellent. The only downside was the food is really pricy! We paid over $70 for only 2 people and it wasn t enough to feed us both and that was only with one drink that we shared. Our friends were also really surprised by the cost, I can t imagine what it would have costed us if we brought our kids. We would absolutely visit here more often if it was more affordable, but find there are other similar spots in town that are of equal quality and more budget friendly especially if you are dining out with multiple family members.

Not the best mexican food at all. Very mushy food and not even hot. Some people got served long before others even arrived in the group. Seemed like food was made days in advance. Shrimp definitely old!

I am now confused which one I like most. Haha. Honestly, everything is so delish and it does not disappoint us! Glad we live nearby. The owners are very nice and so welcoming too!

First time visiting and the owners, Lilly and Henry, couldnt have been more kind and attentive. Since there are many seasonal farm workers this food has to be authentic Mexican cuisine.

One of my favourite taco spots of all time! Fair pricing, authentic menu, good portions and amazing flavour. I got the quesabirria and three tacos: lengua, carnitas, and barbacoa. All fantastic. The tortillas are fresh and moist without falling apart or being overly chewy. Disclaimer - my eyes were bigger than my stomach on my second trip, 3 or 4 tacos will do the trick for one person. I ve definitely paid more for tacos and enjoyed them a lot less. Personally, this is top 3 tacos I ve ever had!

Being from Mississauga and after visiting a friend in hospital in Simcoe I was looking for a bite... I parked the car looked around and saw Lilys Authentic Tacos and thought ya lets give it a try. Very happy with the quality of the food and got to meet and chat with Lily and her husband - wonderful people. Had the beef tacos with a tasty soup. If you like the idea of supporting local people producing good food I urge you to support them. Russ B

I ve been to Cozumel Mexico several times hands-down better than the ones I ve had in Mexico!! The staff is extremely friendly and gives amazing service. Wait times are very short. Tacos are a 10 out of 10 made to perfection. They have tacos for people who don t like spicy like my mom and for people who love the spice like me. I would recommend you try it best tacos, and all of Norfolk county!!!

The best Mexican food in Norfolk County and surrounding areas! The Quesabirria (birria) tacos are a must try and my favourite. Staff are always welcoming and kind. Great patio to sit and enjoy your food on in the warmer months as well. Pictured below: Quesabirria tacos and authentic pop.

A MUST TRY! The empty dishes speak for themselves. We ordered their quesabirria and carnita tacos. They were so good that we forgot to take photos before we inhaled them. Quesabirria 4.5/5: the shells had that crisp, the birria was dripping with flavour, but there was too much cheese for me. Some bites were just cheese. Consumé 5/5: I would drink a cup of that every day during the winter *drool. Carnitas 4/5: the pork was tender and perfectly seasoned but could use more acid. So extra limes for the carnitas are a must.

Yummy, affordable, and speedy tacos. We really liked the garden patio. Only reason for 4 stars not 5, is that we asked for hot not mild, and they were quite mild.

Henry was really friendly and the food was yummy. Good spot to try authentic Mexican cuisine.

December 22, 2023

Totally ripped off. Did not have a good experience. The guy charged extra for tomato because it was not Mexican . (Really?) Found a bone in my taco Burrito was so small and $14 I asked for a side of rice for my 2 year old. He charged me $3.50 and gave me less than a 1/4 cup. Everything was overpriced and not worth it. Especially after the guy told me the plates were quite large and filling. I was very excited to try this place but Will not return very underwhelmed Kid-friendliness: Not recommended

First time here after a quick Google search. The owner was extremely friendly and was happy to explain some of the various options on his menu. I had the barbacoa gringas, which was stuffed with cheese, beef and onions and served with sour cream and hot sauce. To say that this was delicious would be the understatement of the century! So flavourful and fresh. I almost wanted to order a second one to go! Highly recommended!
