130 Eglinton Ave E Main Floor, Toronto, ON M4P 2X9, Canada
Locally designed with the help of some of Toronto’s best street style artists, La Carnita is the spot to enjoy delicious tacos, a handful of churros, run through a mixtape, and wash it all down with a fresh cocktail or beer. At the heart of what we do is always to serve up a dynamic menu, and connect with the community through our love of art & music.
Came for dinner and drinks with my gf. Server was hilarious and really enjoyed the drinks and tacos. Great experience at a new place. Highly recommended ✅
A beautiful atmosphere with exceptional service from our server Rojin and tasty food! Can’t think of a better combo! Highly recommended!
If only Google would allow 10 stars haha. Amazing options on the menu and super cost effective. The vibes were very chill and the Hispanic touches around the restaurant were impressive! We scarfed down the trio taco option and before we were done we talked about coming back to try more of the menu haha Those churros will make you want to streak down queen street - I'm warning you from now 😭 Amazing experience and although we can't seem to remember our servers name he left a lasting impression. Thank you for an awesome meal!
Came in after a long tattoo session. Came in to grab a quick bite and a drink, so decided to sit at the bar. Montana was bartender and did a fantastic job, very help and attentive. Any time i get work done i visit La Carnita, and im never disappointed.
Staff was super nice and accommodating for our pretty big group (10+). Music was a bit loud but if you sit outside it’s not bad at all. Food was super good and portions were well sized. I’d 100% recommend the churros!!
The staff were super friendly and accommodating, the food arrived at a good time and was delicious and a great price for what you get. The nachos’ cheese was like none other and the churros and caramel sauce came in a bigger quantity than other food places with them. I will definitely come back the next time I’m in the area.
We went to the restaurant on New Year’s Eve, and getting a table was really easy as we went earlier. When the waitress came, she didn’t look like she wanted to work at all, which kind of ruined the vibe, at one point the manager or other waiter came to take our order, which he was all fun and smiles. Anyways we got the Mexican chorizo which was not that good. The best plate was the marinated ribs and tiger shrimp. Very flavourful and tasty. Overall it was a sub par experience but its worth giving it a shot.
Service was wonderful! Had nachos as an app which was large and delicious. Tacos are served "family style" because "sharing is caring ;)". Would highly recommend the churros. Food portions a bit small considering the price, but I'd say 2-4 tacos per person was satisfying, including apps and dessert. Didn't get to try the drinks here!
Food was great, Eddie was fantastic even hooked us up with some cake, all around good time will definitely be back soon.
I have dined at other La Carnita locations before and have enjoyed the service and food. But I had to leave this location last night before dining due to the extremely loud party downstairs and the music upstairs was heightened to compensate. The server did offer to reseat me, but it was overly noisy everywhere and did not want to shout with my guests.
We went to La Carnita last night for celebrating our anniversary!Delicious food and great vibe. Rojin made our experience even better with excellent service.
BIG yikes. I couldn t have been more underwhelmed. The pitcher of margarita is laughably small for $65 - you re better off getting an individual margarita (I did the math). The food was really bland. The only thing that was okay were the nachos. We also didn t like how they put all of the tacos together on plates rather than just giving each person what they ordered. The servers forgot which ones were which as well which made it even more difficult to figure out who ordered what. Overall just yikes.
Great food, ambiance, and amazing service by Naitik!
Happy hrs is on point and the service was a 5 start service .. thanks to natik for the amazing recommendations. Vegetarian options: No
Naitik was a super attentive tender, amazing service, amazing food, great place to go in Midtown. The atmosphere is great, its a solid place for tacos and music. I didnt get all the names of the best, but Naitik, thanks for the great service
Great service provided by Kaela!
Went for my birthday. Was greeted by my wonderful server Danika that gave the best restaurant experience I ve had in a long time. Food was amazing only wish the bowls were purchasable in store. 10/10 would recommend
Nice Bar... Good atmosphere
Each time I ve come here it s always had good food and service has been great.
Come here with my sister, nephew & mother who I haven t seen in over 8months. Danika was super welcoming, her vibe & energy unmatched. We had a vibe n her recommendations were spot on. My sister is super picky and she dealt with her like a pro! Deff coming back to this location just got here. Long time John st visitor and now I have my new spot! Danika thanks again!
The vibes and food here are amazing! Love the delicious food but had an incredible time today with exceptional service from Rojin
Thanks to our sweet server Rojin. She made our night
Thanks to our server Rojin. We will definitely come back
Everything was great. The staff were friendly and welcoming, especially Rozhin, who went out of her way to make sure we had everything we needed. It really made the experience enjoyable.
Yesterday, my friends and I were at our favorite spot, and I was telling Rojin, our server, how the downstairs area has such a cool and cozy vibe, but it feels a bit empty. I suggested they should add some entertainment to liven it up. That s when Rojin told us she s a fire dancer, and we were like, Wow, that s awesome! You should definitely perform here, and we d love to come watch! She gave us great service, and we were really happy with her. She also asked us to leave a review and mention the idea, so here it is!
The food is terrible. Everything came cold and was spicy af. Music is too loud, for a Sunday evening I don t think it s necessary. Servers were friendly
The food was decidedly not Mexican but the atmosphere was alright! If you decide you dont want mexican food this place is an okay choice!
Y all knew you had something good, what changed? The food. It used to be good and that s not placebo. The achiote chicken staple piece is more chipotle flavoured chicken dry and feta invisible.
Their menu is great, the short ribs were absolutely delicious, cooked perfectly.
Kaela was great, very attentive service. Thanks to the La Carnita team for a great Friday night experience
Delicious food and yummy margaritas! Thanks to Kaela and Montanna for making our visit fun:)
Food is mediocre. $9 a taco is insane. The 3 dips for $20 was tasty and a great portion but other than that it s extremely overpriced. Music was loud and the bathrooms were filthy. The service was attentive but overly attentive. I couldn t even have a conversation with my friend for more than 5 minutes without the server asking if I was okay. While I understand that she was trying to be as attentive as possible, it was extremely bothersome and made the entire experience unenjoyable.
The tacos were delicious, and the drinks were great! Definitely would come back.
La Carnita has been my go to spot for years. I love the atmosphere of the space and the staff is always great. I head there anytime I m craving a margarita and some tasty tacos!
Kaela made my evening! Great service. Attentive, courteous, funny and overall I felt looked after at all times. Also just a super rad human. Most Sincerely, Jean Constance Van de Mark
Stellar cocktails and exemplary food. No lame over-cheesed, over-riced burritos to be found. Try the cocktails: So Fresh, So Green; 6am in Sausalito; Who Shot Ya. Or a classic Margarita. Try the soft tacos: carne asada, pork belly al pastor, sweet potato, In Cod We Trust. Save stomach space for churros. But skip the Cookie Coffee Toffee ice cream which is mainly just a scoop of vanilla ice cream and not up to the Mexican cuisine standarda of this restaurant. Servers are attentive and know the menu very well. Atmosphere feels most pleasant nearer the open air section of the restaurant. Seemed maybe a little dark and gloomy further into the space.
Great staff ! Food was not good ! I got a horrible food position
They have the best nachos in GTA. Vege tostada is also really good. Prices are on the higher side though. Vegetarian options: Nachos, tostada
All around one of the best restaurants Ive been to in my life, the food was perfect service was great and the atmosphere was very welcome and personal
Food was okay and the waitress was great. Be aware of the $4 drink refills on soda. Food
This is not authentic mexican food. Maybe I would review it higher if I had that mentality when walking in. The flavours, plating and dishes are an attempt to be mexican while gringoing the meal. Mexican s would definitely not have this remind them of home. The restaurant layout and design is interesting. Probably better to go here to drink and maybe eat as something to fill your belly but surely not a choice you want if you are looking for an authentic mexican experience. The tacos are average. The tuna tostada left you searching for actual tuna. Ingredients are mediocre quality from meat to salsas. I reco the owners take a trip to Mexico to remind them of simple things they can do to improve their dishes.
Its says 4 Sol & 4 Tromba on the menu for $44, but the bartender said they dont have it at this location. I wonder why its completely dead and why have it on the menu if you dont serve it?
Been there twice, their food is so yummy The nachos were sooooo good. Loved the atmosphere and the staff is very friendly and the service fast. Kind of pricey but worth it. Food : 5/5
It s my first time coming here, we had a reservation for a surprise birthday party and Emily (our server) was very nice and kind. Made sure that we got our food on time and continuously checked in on us. On top of that, the honey mushroom quesadilla was very very yummy, would recommend everyone to try!! Their cocktails were also very delicious, I would definitely come back for a cute dinner date with my partner :)
Had Emily as our server and she was great! Always came around to see how we were, overall very very kind. Food and drinks were good! She recommended the pineapple margarita and it was delicious Vibes and atmosphere were also great, really great choice of music as well. Overall Id recommend, came for a birthday celebration and had a great time. We also have the same name so another bonus!
Booked this place for my friend s surprise bday last night for a large group and I couldn t ask for better service! Emily was our server and she was so kind and patient with our group. She was super accommodating and made sure that we had everything we needed throughout the evening! I will definitely be back !!
Wonderful staff! Thank you to Eddie for the tequila bottles for our wedding!
Emily excellent service
Amazing nachos! I love the place, vibe and service. Old fashioned is also delicious.
Loved stopping hear to meet up with old colleagues of mine! Our waitress was amazing and took care of everything wr needed, including a few special request orders! Happybhournisbalsongreat so get there before 6pm to take advantage!
We got the Mexican chorizo which was not at all good. The cocktails were kinda just okay-ish. Wouldnt say it was an amazing experience overall , but it was just okay lets not go there again. Food
Good food and great service from Emily!
Awesome night out with my friends. Emily was a fantastic server, and the food and margaritas were all great. Great times at a great spot. Food
amazing food, 11/10! music a little loud though
It was a nice place to chill. They have a patio to sit out. Everyone was friendly. Bathroom was clean.
Service was quite good. Everyone chips in to take order, bring food, clear plates so cant call out a specific person but really good teamwork to make sure you felt taken care of. Food was ok, nothing that made me say Id go back. Generous guac on nachos though. Corn soft taco shells became mushy and fell apart. (Taco pricing is for one taco). Churros were delicious! Came out warm and crispy with chocolate sauce - best part of meal.
This spot offers great drinks, and while their dishes are creative and conceptually interesting, they could use a bit more flavor to really stand out.
Really bad food. The server was nice
Nachos were good in taste and great quantity.
Went here for Cinco de Mayo yesterday with some friends. Had a great experience there. They have some good food and drink specials. The music was great and the atmosphere is always welcoming. We had a whole gamut of tacos, and all of them were tasty and fresh. The elote (Mexican street corn) was just ok. The cobs could be bigger and the flavours should be more pronounced. The main thing I wanted to point out was the amazing service we received from our waiter (Shahbaz). He was extremely attentive, had a great sense of humour and was very warm. It made our experience there that much better. Ive ordered 5-6 times through Uber over the years, and visited 2-3 times in the last year in person. Well definitely continue to visit yalls restaurant. Great establishment.
Good margarita
Thanks to emma for being so accommodating.
Happy hour - 10$ pre made Margaritas, bottles of Sol, and bad flour fish / shrimp tacos I really don t understand how la carnitas used to be the standard. Very disappointed despite cheap prices and will not come back.
I love the playlist
Firstly, I need to start off by saying, Eddy, is so wonderful and accommodating. If you have a celebration, THIS La Carnita is the place to host it! I just had my 30th birthday celebration here last night, and it was just the BEST!!! (I also had my 24th birthday at this La Carnita location as well, and they absolutely do not disappoint.) I want to give a shout out to our incredibly lovely server, Shahbaz, who was just the sweetest, thank you so much for everything! Thank you to the wonderful bartender as well, who is now best friends with my mom apparently?!? (Haha!) La Carnita is where it s AT! Great food, great music/vibes and the most exceptional service! I had the best 30th birthday ever. Thanks again, guys, I ll be back again soon!!! :)
Good service, quality food. Nice place for event or party.
Lovely experience with my server Sarah!! She was very pleasant and attentive to our needs. We enjoyed some wonderful cocktails and delicious Carne Asada tacos!!
Everyone is always friendly and I love it when I stumble upon Shahbaz when he happens to be serving there!
Nicole is amazing!!! She gave the best service and incredible food recommendations:)
Great atmosphere, love the bartender Nicole shes fantastic and such a nice person! Will come back
Shahbaz was amazing and friendly!
Kiran was our waitress and she was so sweet and helpful!! She made our night special :)
Kiran was a huge slay and she recommended some bussin tacos and nachos 10/10 would have her pour me another marg
Really good service, food is fresh and tasty. I am recommending you to try this restaurant
Incredible place with and great atmosphere with delicious food. From classic tacos to flavorful enchiladas, each dish is a culinary masterpiece. The service is exceptional, with attentive staff ensuring a seamless dining experience. The food runners efficiency and friendliness add to the overall charm, contributing to the restaurants reputation for excellent service. Their efficiency, professionalism, and dedication to customer satisfaction make them an asset to the dining experience.
Went to have dinner with a friend and had a great night. Food was delicious, atmosphere was a vibe and Nicole was amazing. She made our experience even better. Definitely recommended.
Came in last night and nicole was my bartender, she was very attentive and nice. Will definitely return.
Very good experience. Nicole was really amazing. Will be back.
SHAHBAZ was a great server
The food was amazing and I enjoyed the drinks all night! Music was so much fun and my server, Nicole, went out of her way to make sure that my date and I had fun from the moment we sat down until the moment we left the door. Will def come back for food, music and Nicole!
Loved the food here - the tacos especially! Their pulled beef and pork were incredibly tender. 100% recommend!
Good vibe, nice music but the service was not bad, could have been way better, the food was kind of cold.
Food was ok, a bit spicy. Not much on the dine in menu other than tacos. They have a great take out menu but because we were dining in there we were not allowed to order a burrito which was on their pick up menu but not on their dine in menu. Makes no sense. Wheelchair accessibility: I do believe their bathrooms are downstairs.
Really good food for reasonable prices. Shoutout Shahbaz for the great service!
Shahbaz was a great server!!
My server Shahbaz was amazing,, after our meal, he offered a birthday treats and to double down, he offered to pay 5 months of my rent too!! so sweet!
Shahbaz was very chill, and made us feel at home, his service goes long way, definitely an experience to remember.
Shahbaz is the realist in there. I said I loved dogs and he gave me his. Love him downnnnn
First of all this was the best taco spot I ve been to thus far. Our server, Shahbaz was an amazing help. Probably the best customer service I ve gotten. He was so quick and attentive. Thank you, Shahbaz. I ll see you soon! Vegetarian options: NA
Shahbaz was pure class. Made my experience here nothing short of excellence.
Shahbaz gave me a charger in my time of need like a knight in shining armor
A fun place with a hip vibe for a Saturday night. Food tastes great, a modern twist on Mexican. Pulled pork taco is fantastic as is the street corn. Nice selection of drinks as well. I would recommend La Carnita.
The atmosphere and vibe is pretty good. The price for food and drink was high. We paid 440 for 4 person Food
I love coming to Carnita. Such a staple spot for the Yonge and Eg area. Bonnie was bartending when I was there last time and it made our night. She knows what to recommend on the menu & has a great sense of humour and witty personality. Highly recommend!
I had an incredible dining experience at La Carnita! From the moment I walked in, the vibrant atmosphere and friendly staff made me feel welcome. The food was absolutely delicious, with each dish bursting with flavor and creativity. Whether youre a fan of tacos, cocktails, or both, La Carnita delivers an unforgettable culinary experience. Its definitely earned a spot on my list of favorite restaurants, and I cant wait to go back for more. Highly recommend giving it a try!
I dined at La Carnita with my partner and we were pleased with the amazing service we received as we dined downstairs. Our bartender was Bonnie, she was fun, kind and made amazing margaritas. We will absolutely go back!
I was here on Saturday with my fiancé and I had the pollo frito chicken tacos, and they were delicious! Our server Bonnie was also SO kind and friendly, she really made the dinner fun. Will definitely be coming back for tacos.
Terrible experience from when we walked in. Hostess was extremely rude, our server was nice but never came. We had to ask for individual items from our order bc they kept forgetting. Never came to ask for drinks or anything, we would ask, then it would never come. Horrible service - do not go.
Love this place. Montana is one of the best bartenders in the area
The tacos were quite disappointing :/ manager was rude
The tacos are too overpriced imo. Churros are amazing. One thing I dont like about here is that I always feel pressure to drink. Twice I came here and twice the server was pushing me to order alcohol. I dont drink please stop.
I placed an order through Uber Eats, I highly recommend it, it was very delicious, it tasted like super fresh and homemade food.
Nicole is always accommodating and provides friendly service whenever Im at La Carnita
I had the best experience at the bar! Nicole is so friendly and suggest a great drink for me! Best service I ve had in a while I can t wait to come back!
Me and my girlfriends came here for drinks and some food. We had three margaritas and nachos. In the middle of our third margarita we were OFFERED a promotional shot and we accepted. About ten minutes later, our waitress informed us that the bartender (who we had never spoken or had any encounter with that night), had cut us off. Tables next to us were visibly drunk and rowdy so that makes sense as to why we were cut off -however - no one next to us was We asked the waitress as to why we were cut off and she said it was because we looked young and the bartender didn t know if we could handle a shot. We are paying, respectful customers and are LEGALLY OF AGE to drink, and we were EXTREMELY confused as to why we were declined service. Will NOT be returning. Save your money, go to joeys (their happy hour doesn t last ten minutes)
I have to spend $70 to get full what ever happened to cheap delicious full for $20 tacos
Loved the scorpion wings here! Also try the spicy Margarita if you love spice. Great service and ambience. Will definitely come again.
Went for dinner my girlfriend, loved the server recommendations. I tried the whoshotya and my girlfriend had the sangria Both the drinks were amazing. Tacos are full of flavours and spicy which we love.
From the first bite to the last, every taco was bursting with flavor. Easily our favorite spot for tacos in town! (Special date night , special dinner )
Really adorable place, the food was good but the service was even better. Sarah is the main reason I will be coming back to this location. She made our experience here and I m excited to come back for more.
Sarah was the best 10/10 will be returning for her service.
I had a great time there, great place to hang out with friends or families. Good atmosphere and good food. Friendly staff and great service
Great food and greater vibes. Loved it!! Highly recommended!!!!
I have been there 2 times. both times the service and the food was really bland and nothing good about it. The cocktail menu is so limited. Only the who shot ya cocktail which had bourbon and pomegranate was good. The rest is not really something special. The waitress also was not really friendly.
Excellent service & food Thank you Naitik for the great service. Food
Food was nice, prices are nice. Our server was Naitik and he was really helpful! Music is really loud though, so be prepared to yell
Came for my birthday dinner. Kiran was such an awesome and sweet server and I hope to see her next time I come back!!
Kiran was such a kind and attentive server. great experience!!
MC was the best server!!! Thanks for your fantastic service! We enjoyed our food and drinks so much!
MC
The working girl MC was very sweet, the service was fast and very friendly.
I love this place!! Especially, I like MC! She is so kind and she works so fast!! Thank you
Kiran was awesome with appetizer recommendations! Great spot for dinner.
MC was a great server!
Shahbaz was our server. Great guy!
Ive been going to La Carnita for the past five years, frequenting various branches until I settled on this one over the last year. Sadly, each visit leaves me more disappointed than the last. Some of the waitstaff appear disinterested, which affects the overall experience. While initially drawn in by the delicious drinks, even those have become mediocre lately, despite the premium prices, you get a sports bar cocktail. The food, particularly the wings, fails to meet expectations I couldnt even finish them. Its regrettable that the neighborhood cant enjoy this location as much as the others.
The waiter name Natik was very kind and good person!! It was first time to go to this restaurant, so he explained kindly!! I had great time!! Food
Nicole is the best bartender iv ever had!! She s hilarious so enthusiastic and attentive. I WILL BE BACK JUST FOR HER
Pam was so attentive and was honestly such a ray of sunshine , she was the best service by far here at La Carnita
Kiran was fantastic! She made our experience a delight. All the best to her!
Pan and Nicole were terrific. The service was second to none. Always smiling and happy to service you.
Pam and Nicole are the best servers I ve experienced in a long time! Super attentive and knowledgeable!
Pamela was amazing
I had such a great experience having drinks here! Our server Pamela was great energy and had great customer service. Also the margs are fire!!
Nicole gave great service and was very knowledgeable about the menu.
Nicole was such an attentive bartender I will definitely be returning because of her
Great place! Food was amazing. Service was excellent Nicole was so nice
such a lovely spot, Pam was super nice!
Nicole went above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was enjoyable. She was attentive, knowledgeable, and made excellent recommendations. Her friendly demeanor, and efficiency truly enhanced our meal
The food was amazing and Nicole made me feel very welcome:) I would highly recommend this place!
Nicole was an amazing server to me and my 5 friends. She was very attentive, organized , friendly and very careful with my food allergy with her knowledge of the menu. I will definitely return!
Don t even know where to start! Food was amazing & Nicole was an amazing waitress. Very attentive and friendly! Will definitely return.
Nicole was my bartender/ server and was absolutely the best! I was there a week or so ago, and she went out of her way to give me suggestions when I couldnt decide what I wanted and my bf was no help lol. She also makes some yummy cocktails. Def will be coming back as I liked the vibe and loved her service.
Service was good, and the staff were friendly. The establishment was clean and nice. The food was awful, probably the worst non-fast food Mexican food I ever had. They clearly walked across the road to the lawblaws to get every aspect of their tacos. The tacos were served cold, not even bothering to heat their tortillas. The pineapple was clearly from a can and still soggy from its juices. The tacos were overly saucy. As far as prices go these are also some of the most expensive tacos in Toronto, going for between $7.50-$8.50 per taco. That s a huge chunk of change for someone who could just walk across the street and make a better taco for themselves for 80% less $$$. Also had the queso fundido, which is more like a stadium nacho cheese than a real fundido. We had to get a snack after eating here to cover up the taste of the food. I m talking B-A-D bad! Would not recommend the food here at all. I don t know if anyone there has even tasted a real taco, and if they have then why would they do such injustice to the craft. 1/10 will never eat again. Vegetarian options: They have mushroom and vegan chorizo options. If you ve had beyond meat chorizo then you know that your next trip to the washroom will be spicy.
Shahbaz was great!
Shahbaz was amazing (see photo).
Great food, and Shahbaz was an awesome and attentive server!
Shahbaz was so wonderful! Lovely smiley face
I came in the other day, and had a great time my server Sarah was such a gem. Super helpful and energetic she was a joy to interact with. Foods good as usual.
Such a great experience! Our server Sarah was so kind, enthusiastic, knowledgeable and accommodating!! She really made our night special. Can t wait to go back:)
Sarah was my server and she made sure we had the best experience!! Not only did she explain all the food I asked about very throughly but she had such a good happy attitude! 10/10 recommend eating here!
Had an amazing experience here! The atmosphere and service were fantastic. I usually don t leave reviews but my server, Sarah, was so helpful just provided us with the best experience. I would highly suggest to friends and will definitely be going back!
Literally the best rester aunt experience Ive ever had, especially because i had this server named sarah, funniest and kindest server Ive ever had.
Had a lovely evening with my wife Sarah our server was amazing she makes this place amazing definitely want to come back! Hopefully we get Sarah again!<3 Food

I love La Carnita! Sarah was such a wonderful server, very friendly and quick. Made the experience even better there.
Sarah was the best waiter anyone could have asked for! She was literally the sweetest and we had a great conversation at the table, and she kept asking if everything was okay. Would definitely come back here! The food was great and the atmosphere was awesome too.
We were visiting Toronto over the weekend and was recommended to try this restaurant, our server Sarah was amazing and super attentive, the food was great and we will definitely be coming back next time we are in the area.
Nicole was the best ever she s so awesome, pretty, loving and provided the best service. TOP TIER PURR. She was great I got the most delicious food and drinks. I will be coming back to see Nicole and enjoy it all!!
Went with some friends for some drinks and our server Sarah was amazing. She was very friendly and funny and she made the experience even better!

I went with my girlfriend last week. Sarah was our server and she was wonderful! Great food and great service
My friends and I had such a good time and Sarah our server delivered 10/10 service! Amazing overall experience! Will be returning!
Came by for some taco s and cocktails, the ambiance was very nice and the food/drinks were awesome. Thank you to Sarah as well for giving us the best service. Highly recommend!
It was meh
Shared a bunch of apps, nachos, onion rings and the shrimp and everything was incredible....the onion rings were next level. Our server, MC was great. Only complaint is that the restaurant is incredibly cold. Will be back!
Been here in the summer and it was much better experience. Today the service seemed off and we waited more than usual and it wasn t even that busy . Portions seem even smaller than before . We both went across the street to get burgers after this .
I recently dined at La Cartina with a group of 12, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The service was impeccable - attentive and accommodating. The food was simply outstanding, with a diverse menu catering to all tastes. Personal favorites as a vegetarian included the honey mushroom quesadillas, Mexican street corn (a must-have!), Queso fundito was a standout dish! The vegan options, such as the sweet potato taco and vegan chorizo taco, were equally delicious and satisfying. For non vegetarians the table ordered the carne asada taco & they enjoyed them. The atmosphere was vibrant and welcoming, perfect for a gathering with friends or family. Dont miss out on the delicious churros for dessert! The drink selection was also top-notch, with refreshing beers like Sol and Dos Equis, and the Dizzie Rascal cocktail was a delightful choice. Overall, La Cartina exceeded my expectations in every way, and I cant wait to return. Highly recommended! Vegetarian options: Amazing vegan/ vegetarian options! Parking: There is street parking opposite to the place, and there is a green p close to it
We didn t love it. Not authentic Mexican. They I fused Mexican with Indian flavours and not done well might I add we love both Indian and Mexican but this infusion wasn t for us.
Their portions were very small, but the flavours of the tacos I got were great. I probably wouldnt come back here as I feel like its not worth it (due to portion size). Service was great as well!
The food is a okay and the waiters are just trying to upsell.
Nachos were some of the best weve had. Tacos left a lot to be desired for the price. Emma was great!
We loved the tacos (specially vegan and fish one), the service was fast and efficient (shoutout to our server MC). the location was good as well. Overall really nice experience.
I ordered Mexican corn via ubereats. The corn arrived with no cheese, doused in sour cream. No seasoning. The vegan bowls had similarly skimped on ingredients.
Great tacos , sometimes can be a wait. If really busy order tacos at once
I visited this restaurant yesterday, after reading some Google reviews. There werent many customers, probably because it was a Tuesday night, but the poor quality of service made me rethink whether I should recommend this place to others. The waitress seemed to be in a bad mood and was quite rude when she took away my plates without asking if I were still eating, which I was. She also told me that the restaurant was closing when it actually had an hour left before the closing time. Based on my bad experience, I would not recommend this restaurant. However, other reviewers might have had a better experience or luck.
First time dining here and it was an ok experience. I went on a Thursday for dinner and the service was slow and hard to get the staffs attention. If youre looking for some good tacos I would suggest other places that are worth the price because these tacos were pricey pricey. Just my opinion! My friends and i got a pitcher of sangria to share but it was so small. Felt ripped off.
Good food.... But cant say the value is good.
La carnita used to be one of the best taco places in Toronto back in the day Went yesterday after 2 years and man the quality has deteriorated. Tortillas were cold and the pork belly pastor had more pineapples than pork lol. Paying $8 for a tiny morsel of pork on a single taco? LOL Don t get me wrong I m not asking for you to overload it with meat but a taco is about balance - tacos last night from la carnita were not
Recently dined at La Carnita, and it was an exceptional experience! The atmosphere was inviting, creating a perfect setting. The food was a true highlight from delicious tacos to what I can confidently say were the best nachos ever. The flavors were outstanding, and the overall quality surpassed expectations. Kudos to La Carnita for delivering an outstanding dining experience. Highly recommend!
We hosted an event here last week and Eddy and his team were amazing, so accommodating and the service was excellent!
I dont think my kids will give tacos another try after this experience. Food was cold - like it had been sitting out and forgotten about and tasted disgusting. Too much lime in everything. Service was VERY slow and they dont come back to ask how everything is. Worst meal we have had out in a long time.
Great atmosphere and the taco deal on Tuesday was delicious and great. Will say it s a bit overpriced, especially the pitcher sangria for $50 is quite underwhelming on taste and was incredibly small ( we asked for 6 glasses but could barely split it into 3, wish we had gotten a heads up about that).
Yum
Naitik is great! My husband and I went for dinner and he was our server. Eddy the manager was really nice too, he came by to check on us to make sure our night was good. Tacos were delicious and our favourite was the 8 spice shrimp appetizer!
The ambience is great. Good music and good atmosphere. Food wise, not so much. The tortilla taco was old and the meat was bit hard to chew.
Food is not tasty at all and portions are small for price.
My boyfriend took me here for taco Tuesday and we tried the tacos at this place and they were absolutely fantastic! The flavors were on point, and the ingredients tasted fresh. The staff was friendly and provided excellent service. The cozy atmosphere added to the overall enjoyable dining experience. Ill definitely be coming back for more tasty tacos! Highly recommend for any taco lover.
