We called ahead to see if they were open because we were coming from a long way to try their food. My father wanted to try their food because he’d seen their commercials on TV. We get there and they’re CLOSED. Right smack in the middle the day. Thankfully there’s lots of great food nearby and had no trouble finding something else. But this really sucked.

Great Mexican spot! We had the carnitas nachos which were some of the best nachos we've had! Fresh tortilla chips and a good amount of toppings. Had a variety of tacos...birria, Al pastor, chorizo, fish, brisket. They were all great with amazing flavors. Will definitely be back!

Absolutely amazing experience! The food was delicious and beautifully presented, with a wide variety of options to choose from. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making us feel right at home. The ambiance was perfect, cozy yet stylish.

I recently had a quick lunch at Ay Caramba. The staff were welcoming, and the restaurant was clean, which made for a pleasant dining experience. The food was well presented, and the portion sizes, especially for the tacos, were generous, though the price was a bit high. While everything tasted fine, the flavors weren't particularly memorable. Overall, I'd give it a solid 4.5 stars—not quite perfect, but still a good choice for a meal.

I came here for an event and found the owner very friendly. He told us a bit of a history about Tacos and Mexican food and explained the ingredients of each taco we were going to try. I tried fish taco, Al Pastor, Eh! Taco and Campechano Taco and I’d say Campechano Taco was one of the best tacos I’ve ever had; it had perfect amount of spices. I would definitely come back to try it and other menu items.

This is an authentic Mexican restaurant offering a variety of authentic Mexican food with a twist. We tried various tacos, churros and horchata. We enjoyed the tacos very much, especially the fish tacos, so crunchy with a corn shell . After the meal, we ordered another takeout order for 5 tacos and nachos. The portion is not big though. The owner Carlos is super nice and friendly, and the service is very fast too, would recommend if you’d like to try some real Mexican tacos .

Ay Caramba delivers true Mexican flavor. I love the atmosphere around here with the little booths and lighting decor. The owner is extremely friendly and has passion about the food that they serve. Most of the dishes are house made. I love their secret hot sauces. Not so secret now but I highly recommend you ask for them. Portions are very generous for real tacos. The chicken and beef were incredible with such great flavor. The fish was super delicious with a good chunk of haddock. The churro was perfectly cooked and not overly oily. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside the way it should be. I like the way they serve their menu here with a flat price of five or three tacos. You can mix and match them any way you want or order all the same. There is no difference. I will definitely be coming back to try out some of the appetizers as five tacos filled me up and I couldn't have another bite. Great job! We'll be back.

This place is a true gem, it is authentic, the taste is delicious and great prices. We ordered 5 tacos, each one were different and delicious tastes. We also ordered a quesadilla and it was delicious. The service was amazing and the atmosphere is wonderful, very aesthetically pleasing. This will be my new go to place:)

From the second we sat down the waitress had an attitude. She was very pushy to order so we asked for more time. She messed up our order and when we told her she brought something we didn t order she got extremely rude and said fine then I ll take it off your order grabbed the plate and stormed off. Very childish. The Birria tacos were fantastic as were the chicken taquitos . The place is very tiny so consider going with 1 or 2 people max. Had higher hopes for this place but unfortunately the service provided overshadowed everything.

Been here multiple times and so far, it s some of the best tacos we ve had in the GTA. We try a new flavour each time and have never been disappointed by any that we ve had. The horchata is a must have with any order! All the food is freshly made and extremely flavourful. The staff are all so kind. Their hot sauces could do with more heat, but they have good flavour overall. 1000% recommend.

Great tacos and nachos! They had a promotion going on during Cinco de Mayo, so we were able to try quite a few different tacos for a nice price. My favourite tacos were the Poyito and the Brisket. We also ordered a Chilaquiles Eh, with alambre. The meat was packed with flavours! The place itself is pretty small and cozy. It could get crowded if there are lots of people waiting to order, but there are quite a few tables available. Will come again. Parking: Its located in a plaza with plenty of parking.

The atmosphere was great and so was the service! Staff was very polite. Definitely recommend the Horchata! I ordered the Birria Tacos it was so good. However I feel the portion is very small, you do get 3 tacos but they re very small tortillas. I feel like the portion served is not justified for the price. That s the only problem I had, but don t get me wrong the taste was really good.

When you walk in the vibes are pure Mexican! The service is outstanding, all the waiters/waitresses were very friendly from the beginning and throughout the entire dining experience. Food was beyond expectation, I was looking for authentic Mexican tacos and this place did not disappoint! I got the al pastor quesadilla (delicious, perfect blend of meat and freshness) and my girlfriend got the birria tacos (delicious and meaty). We shared chips and guac, and again the guac was fresh! Everything made here is made with love and is very fresh/high quality! You can tell the workers have a genuine passion and happiness when they work there, I highly recommend this place! Hidden gem.

The customer service was really good! Everyone helped us with a smile. There were a lot of taco options on the menu which is always nice. We ended up doing the 5 taco deal for 29.99 and then the Quesabirria eh. All the tacos were quite delicious. We particularly enjoyed the Quesabirria eh (it was also very good as left overs warmed up). Its really hard to find good tacos so Im very happy to have found this place.

Maybe this is a one off order. The food was bland. I ordered a potato power and a chipotle chicken taco. Both were tiny little tacos. Chicken was ok but the pot potato was bland, no flavor. Not worth the price they selling. Also ordered veg nachos. I have had bettered nachos in any other regular restaurant. Not worth the money for me.

This is our go-to spot for tacos in the area. I m so glad they added Birria tacos to the menu. It was delicious and one of the best Birria tacos I ve ever had.

As much as I love the food here, the small, $5 tacos are just pushing it. Yes the flavours are great and pretty authentic, but even buying their 5 for $25 taco option leaves you barely filled.

Came here on the weekend for dinner - thought the tacos were average/mediocre. Nothing to rave about. Tacos were relatively smaller than we had anticipated, and at $16 for 3 tacos, we had expected a bit more. The brisket taco was noticeably soggy too. Nice to try, but unlikely to return.

Best I can say is not bad . I ve had everything from authentic tacos in Mexico to chain restaurant tacos, and this falls flat somewhere closer to the latter. While the atmosphere, service, presentation were pretty good, some key points were missing that would ve made the experience satisfactory. The biggest issue: food is cold. There are some other comments here sharing the same thing, but the chicken & onions used were extremely cold, and we did dine in too. Can t imagine those getting tacos for takeout. We enjoyed the tacos. Quite pricey, even compared to others in the area, but not uncommon nowadays. Definitely a $$ place. I d say it s worth trying, see if you like it. But avoid the chicken.

December 23, 2023

The food does not justify the high prices. First off, the taquitos are so tiny they were only slightly larger than 4 cigarettes. My husband and I ordered 5 tacos each and they came out 5 minutes later lukewarm and soggy. If youre going to charge $5.6 per taco then at least add an additional tortilla to prevent the entire thing from falling apart. They also put the tipping option before showing the total which was fine, but we ended up tipping 15% for non-existent service. The flavor of the food is not bad, but they need to step up their game to justify such high prices and most definitely increase their portion sizes, honestly the portion sizes are a joke. Would definitely not go back, almost $100 spent for a casual dinner.

We were looking for a new burrito spot in Vaughan and found AY Caramba, Eh! Small location that s a hidden gem! We were greeted by the friendly staff, who are from Mexico and serve authentic meals. We started with chips, home made guacamole and pico de gallo. Great appetizer before our Burritos were ready. The burrito is smaller than most of the franchise places however the taste is far superior! We will definitely be back to try more options from their menu. Expect to spend about $20 per person with a drink. Slightly more if you want to try their churros after your meal.

Overall though it was a good place. 5 tacos + guac/chips + jarritto drink + one bottle of water came to about $50.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this place. Such a tiny little space with so much to offer! The fish tacos are by far my favourite. The house made chips and salsa are absolutely TDF. Small space but delightful decor and seating. I found it by accident in a small business section just north of Rutherford. I went on my own out of curiosity and then just kept returning with different friends. The fare is a little expensive, but well worth it once you take a bite. Super cute and (I think) family run.

We went there today for the first time and had the 5 tacos including the Birria, the brisket and the pineapple beef. I had such high hopes for the Birria, but it lacked flavourful. The tacos were smaller than other restaurants. There wasnt any depth to the tacos except for the beef and pineapple taco. The churros were standard, but expensive for the amount. The restaurant was clean and the service was ok.

Ay Caramba had a clean and fun atmosphere with Latin music playing. The waiter was friendly, bilingual, and provided details about special menu deals. As a vegetarian, I tried a potato taco and a mushroom taco. The food wasn t spicy but they had sauces on the side for you to spice to your liking. Vegetarian options: The mushroom tacos were good but mine didn t have jalapeño peppers so not spicy at all.

This place is simply incredible. I get it for delivery quite often. Load up on whatever taco you like, its gonna be damn good. Taquitos you say? I feel they would fly under the radar here because the tacos are so good, but get them, cause they are unbelievable. You like Birria you say? Search no more. They got em here, and they could quite possibly be the best thing to put in your mouth in all of York Region.

Ay Caramba, Eh offers a pleasant dining experience in a cozy and clean environment. My waiter was very polite and attentive when taking my order. I was surprised the restaurant wasnt busier - it deserves more customers! While on the pricier side, with my nachos, 3 tacos and a soda totaling $51, the food quality makes up for it. The nachos were a standout - crispy chips layered with flavorful pico de gallo, spicy pickled jalapeños and chipotle sauce. I tried the brisket, birria and al pastor tacos. The incredibly tender brisket and the melt-in-your-mouth birria were my favorites, while the al pastors strong pineapple taste was less to my liking. The fresh garnishes rounded out the tacos nicely. They execute upscale Mexican fare in an intimate setting, albeit at premium prices. Still, the attentive service and scrumptious nachos and tacos make it a tasty spot for date nights.

Used to be my go to taco spot then they raised the price by $8 it used to cost $20 for 5 tacos now it s almost $30 I will not be coming back until the price is changed because as of now it seems to be a total rip off the owner also argued with me over the phone trying to explain that they raised the prices because of the cost of living, that s not how you keep customers especially ones that have given you plenty of business, save your money and don t go here unless your trying to spend $30 on 5 tiny tacos

One of my favourite taco places in Vaughan! The tacos are extremely flavourful and have such a unique flavour. The tacos are on the pricier side and the portion size is a bit small, but it s definitely worth it if you re looking for really good tacos. My personal favourites are Alambre, Chorizo, Fish, & Al Pastor Eh!

We used Ay Caramba to cater our engagement party and we would highly recommend Carlos and his team to anyone looking for quality, authentic tacos and amazing service. He was so quick to reply to us and to accommodate our requests. We were worried that they were a bit far from our event and while we did reach out to a few other places nearby for quotes, we ultimately went to him for his service, responses, fair pricing, and ease of delivery - the distance didn t matter, the different items were packaged great and lasted throughout the evening. Our guests loved the food, the tacos and churros were a hit. Thank you for everything, Carlos!

Ay caramba! Eh... I had no idea there was such a popular Mexican eatery in the outskirts of the GTA. More precisely, this authentic spot is located at the end of a plaza off the Hwy 400 so you have to look hard to find it. Called ahead for takeout and arrived to a long waiting line at the front cash. My food was nowhere near ready which was a bit disappointing. But received complementary chips & salsa, which was a nice touch from the friendly owner. My advice is to try the spicy salsa, it has a real kick from the jalapeños for the taste buds! And true to ad, the food here was infused with scents/flavors of Mexico making it worth the visit and wait. Ordered the aptly named 3 Amigos: fish haddock, carnitas and beef brisket tacos. Both carnitas (slow-cooked pork) & beef brisket were tender, moist and marinated deliciously. Fish was nicely battered and also topped with plenty of fresh garnishes like the others. Just a great triumvirate of tacos, albeit in small portions.

Cute little taco shop with authentic tacos. The prices were very reasonable as compared to other taco shops. Carnitas were outstanding, the horchata and agua de Jamaica had a hint of cinnamon which elevated their flavour even more. The house salsa was the most delicious sauce I have ever had even in Mexico. They have a bathroom but it is located at the back of the kitchen, a-bit narrow to get to. I recommend them!

Very cute little shop! More of a take out location as they only have 3 small tables for 4 people. These are smaller tacos (about 2-3 bites), but if you prefer variety this is the place. I love being able to choose 5 different tacos. We tried almost every taco on the menu (minus the mushroom one). Mostly everything was great! The only not as flavourful ones were the potato power and chori-potato. Otherwise it was a nice stop for a quick dinner bite. Be aware they are busy for take out and wait times can be longer.

This is the best taco spot I have ever been to. I miss going to taco places but don t have any near me. This place is fairly close so I decided to give it a shot. I ended up eating 8 tacos and will go for 10 next time. The jalapeño dip was to die for. Thank you for the amazing food and hospitality:)
