It's a shame, because Vancouver really lacks Mexican restaurants, especially in the West End. But with ordering at the counter rather than the table, this isn't really a restaurant, either.

Warm, buzzy, and genuinely welcoming from the moment you walk in. The enchiladas are my go-to, saucy and cheesy and full of flavour, I order them almost every time and they never miss. But truly everything here is great. The tacos are excellent across the board, the guacamole is fresh, the nachos come loaded, and you should absolutely save room for the churros because they're some of the best I've had. Portions are generous and the prices are more than reasonable for how much food you get. The margaritas don't disappoint either. It gets busy, especially on weekends, but the staff keep things moving and are lovely the whole way through. A proper hidden gem. I go whenever I'm downtown.

The service was warm and welcoming without being overwhelming. Ask for Eleana, she took wonderful care of us while we were there. The restaurant is cozy - not huge, not small, enough room for everyone there without being packed. I found the food delicious and authentic. Great to support a local, woman-owned business.

Food is spectacular, and the place is cozy yet vibrant and full of life! I wouldn't recommend ordering on UberEats- it always gets cold before it gets to you, and the tacos fall apart on the ride. I do HIGHLY recommend going in person, bring a few friends and have fun in the moment!

A shot and a beer later, things were already looking up. We grabbed some tacos, which hit the spot. I had my heart set on their quesadillas, but turns out they were unavailable because they're moving locations soon. Tragic. All in all, a solid first meal in Vancouver. Will 100% be back--hopefully next time with quesadillas and less jet lag.

Highly recommend this place for a tasty, quick meal.

My friend and I decide to go to Nelson park to have to go tacos. It's few minutes walk from restaurant. They have 4 tacos for $17 deal though, I ordered two tacos for $9ish and good volume and tasty. Their fish taco is not deep fried one. It's grilled with creamy sauce. Very good balance. I really enjoyed lots of flavor in it. Mole chicken taco was very tender and saucy. It's gonna be messy but worth to try it.

Our server was attentive and around when we needed something but never interrupting, and his recommendations ended up being some of our favourite dishes. The anchovy olives were a standout, super crispy, packed with flavour, and not overly fishy at all (great if you're a bit hesitant about anchovies). The mushroom toast was rich, savoury, and full of umami. Just a heads up not to let it sit too long since it softens the bread. The tuna tartare was fresh and well-balanced. Not my personal favourite served on toast, but still really enjoyable overall. The paella was excellent, perfectly cooked shrimp, tclams, and crispy pork belly chicharrón that added the best salty, fatty crunch. The roasted cabbage completely surprised me and was easily one of the best veggie dishes I've had in a while. I could have eaten a whole plate of it. We wrapped things up with churros and shared a pitcher of sangria. For three people, it came out to about $68 each before tip, which felt very fair for how much we ordered. Would definitely recommend.

The stewed pork is so tender and juicy and pairs really well with the refried beans. - the carnitas is excellent. Slightly crispy, the way it should be , not just shredded pork. Very tender and juicy. - the other meats are good too. The carne asada is just OK. - the sides are just ok jsut onions. No pico de gallo. No guac. Good place overall.
