    Chicken Burrito
    Adele W.

    I saw this place open some time ago and have been dragged here a couple of times by coworkers but have never ordered anything for myself. A few of us who had never eaten here before decided to give it a go and we came last Friday for lunch. Although it was a later lunch, this place was packed to the rafters. I ordered a small chicken burrito garnished with most of the toppings. The burrito itself was a good size and plenty for lunch, the unfortunately thing was, it complete lacked any resemblance of flavour... or chicken for that matter. Definitely not worth the money. It left me wondering how this place was so busy. I will likely come back and try something else because it is so close to my work but I would never go out of my way to eat here.

    I had the chicken burrito and it was not very good. Lacking flavour, the sauce was a bit sour and the rice must have been out all day, because it had those dry hard bits. The service was nice and it looked good, but in the end the taste didn't make it a worthwhile meal. After I finished I regretted wasting a meal on this burrito.

    Came one Friday around 1225pm for lunch and just missed the rush! After I ordered, a whole line up (almost to the door) was behind me! The restaurant looked quite small and dark, and to be quite honest, a little dingy. Nevertheless, I was excited to try their food as I've heard good things and seen the line! I had ordered a steak burrito bowl, which was a burrito minus the wrap and is priced as a large. The bowl came with all the toppings they had (guac included!!). The order was fairly quick, but I would have to leave this as a very mediocre meal. I found the beans too soupy, which made my bowl terribly soggy. It was so bad I felt like I was drinking soup! Another thing I missed was the corn! They had no corn! I usually like corn with my burritos to give a hint of sweetness. On the positive side, portions are fair with comparison to the price. Overall, the flavours were quite one toned and left a fairly 'meh' taste in my mouth. I would actually much prefer Burrito Boyz, a 5 minute walk down the street.

    Looks and tastes like Taco Bell-but with Big Mac sauce over top

    Mediocre burrito joint that serves tacos and nacho fries as well. I tried both the fish and beef tacos from this place and both were on par with the quality that you can get from Taco Bell. Each taco was mostly comprised of lecture, tomato and their secret sauce that essentially tasted like Big Mac sauce. The protein was lacking in both, and the overall flavour wasn't anything like what you'd expect for a taco. I would say that it was more akin to eating a burger minus the patty. A disappointing meal overall, as it was neither affordable nor satisfying. Maybe their burritos are better, but I would not recommend the tacos at all.

    Nachos and chips? OH MY!!!

    First of all, I don't understand these negative reviews about the place not being clean. What is the reviewer Terry H smoking? This place was open for nearly a month now and if their food wasn't clean then wouldn't the city have shut them down already? How could the cook have "dirty fingers" when THEY MAKE YOUR FOOD FRESH RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU?! Not to mention that if you look near the cash register, you can CLEARLY SEE that not only the cook is certified in food handling, but got a PASS from the city of Toronto. The food is fresh and not factory frozen like Taco Bell. The staff is very friendly and helpful in placing your orders and the place looks like a well-established 5 star Mexican restaurant. And you really got to try the Bean N cheese burrito if you are a Vegetarian because they use the freshest vegetables available to cook the beans with. If Terry H says that you could eat a better burrito from No Frills, then ask Terry H what carcinogenic GMO ingredients they put in their burritos? How else do you think it is "fresh" from the Freezer of No Frills and sells for a buck? You might as well smoke a cigarette and live a healthier lifestyle than eating those FROZEN GMO-laced No Frills burritos. If you don't believe me, then check them out. Give them a trial. It doesn't hurt if you check the place out for yourself. Once you have a bite, it will blow you away like you were at the Alamo.

    Went there one night after walking into another restaurant and being turned away because it was 10 pm on a Monday and apparently the kitchen was closed. The reason I say apparently is because the place was packed and didn't look like it was closing anytime soon. I am super glad I walked into this little gem. It definitely touched the spot with the craving I was having to enjoy a late night snack with bold flavours. I ordered the chicken burrito loaded to the max. The friend I was with is a super picky eater so he ordered the taco's with just cheese and meat, NOTHING else.. pretty sad I know. My Burrito was kicking with tons of flavours, and filled to the rim with everything you would expect to find in a Burrito. I also found the service to be great! I felt like it was very family oriented behind the counter which is nice to see know a days. Being so close to my place I will be making a visit here again. I enjoyed my meal and can't wait to try something new on the menu the next time around.

    There's also some pork in there, somewhere.

    3 tacos for $6.75 on a drizzly Saturday. What could possibly go wrong? The answer, in case you're wondering, was served up in a frayed straw basket from the Burrito Place at Yonge and Finch.. The tacos were made with cold flour tortillas and a little more than half the filling (pork, but they also have the usual beef and chicken, plus fish and soy) you'd expect in a standard-issue taqueria. Main ingredient was clearly the chopped iceberg lettuce, followed by some chunks of tomato (not bad) and a sprinkling of a shredded orange-and-white cheeselike product. This was dosed in a very sweet version of the sour cream-based sauce found on Baja-style fish tacos. Bottom line: cloying, bland and utterly devoid of the rich, complex flavor that makes Mexican food so popular worldwide. I asked for hot sauce, and received a ghost pepper concoction that was plenty hot, but also flavorless and apparently pointlessly sweetened too. On the plus side, both the folks working there were pleasant and there's a cute mural on the wall. Just don't go there for the food. So just how bad was it? Let's put it this way: when I got home an hour later I went immediately to the kitchen and made a quesadilla with a couple healthy jolts of Cholula, just to get that sickly sweet taste out of my mouth.

    After Two times of visiting; I've decided to write this review. First adventure of visiting; Friday night of thanksgiving, me and three buddies had no one but us three; we came in and ordered a feast, food came out quick, now here's the twist...I never eat fish tacos ever; for once I tried it under the owners guarantee. It was amazing! I wanted seconds! It was tender yet favor filled unlike other places will blank taste. Second time of visit: more surprise! I decided to try the shrimp and chicken steak mix. I was shocked that the shrimp was fresh at 2am in the morning. Almost perfectly cooked, juicy and tender. Sum up: after muti-dishes from burritos, tacos to salad, fries and nachos I'm giving the place a 5 star! Great owner, great food, good speed, open kitchen for viewing and LLBO+ exotic drinks!

    Supreme fries with beef! Must try!!
    Ella P.

    Best burrito place Literally! Food is always done right! The hot sauce is to die for if you are looking for a fiery kick. My all time favorite hot sauce, I'm hooked! The fish burrito is juicy and delicious! The Supreme fries are a must try! The secret sauce makes it so amazing and makes you want more! It's a small place by finch station. The owner is a super cool guy, very energetic, passionate and remembers all his customers. Check it out and you will be coming back for more!

    Fish Tacos (2 pieces)

    I was craving tacos so I came here. They had good service without extreme long wait time. I ordered the fish tacos and it was okay. It was a bit dry and the lettuce was a bit old- not very fresh. However, I liked the fact it came with sour creme and tomato sauce. I think I would come again if I was craving tacos and I was nearby but wouldn't come here purposely.

    It should be two stars, but I'm going to be nice and give it 3. This is probs the ONLY mexican-ish place in the area, so its a nice change. DEFO way better than John Andy's. That was just..yeah. Anyways. I stopped at about 10pm on Friday Night to get some noms because I realized I hadn't eaten all day and I didn't wanna drink on an empty stomach. It was pretty packed and there was a line for food. The owner took my order and said it would be about ten minutes. I ordered the steak burrito combo (w/ Fries and a Mango Jarritos) While waiting, you can see right into the kitchen, and it's pretty cool. He's pretty vocal about what's he's doing,so you know exactly what's happening. True to his word, I got my food exactly ten minutes later. So here the skinny: 1. My burrito wasn't the greatest. It was understuffed, and undergrilled. It fell too easily. 2. The fries (which I knew were the last order of the day b/c he said "after this no more fries", and also were just sitting already cooked in the basket) were inedible. Sorry. I'm really about that, b/c they were shoestrings, and you rarely see a good shoestring at restaurants these days. 3. The habanero sauce I got on the side was PHENOMENAL. Anastasiya was crying after she tried it. 4. Jarritos was delicious as usual. My bill came up to 10.50. Not too bad, considering the fries were a large portion and the jarritos was a dollar extra. I can definitely see myself coming back here. It's not the best, but it's a good effort, and the owner definitely has heart.

    The burritos were not filling and over priced. You're better off going to burrito boyz just down the road. They are so much better.

Parking was a challenge, but there is a Green P that is about 5-8 minutes away that isn't too bad if the weather is good. The atmosphere is quite intimate and I did find myself bumping into other people / staff when going to and from the washroom, etc. The food was pretty good - the tacos were full of flavour and I got to try a variety by sharing with the group. I think my favourite was the beef barbacoa. The prices are definitely a bit up there for a Mexican restaurant, I believe the tacos were around $7 each. The quality made it worth it, but there's definitely other places in Toronto that serve up a great taco for nearly half the price. We also tried a couple of appetizers, including the nachos, guac and ceviche. The nachos were something special - it was a bit of a nacho pizza. I didn't expect that from Playa Cabana, given everything else was very authentic. The taste was good, but it was a bit of a challenge to share! The highlight of the night was definitely the desserts - we ordered the tres leches cake, and the churros. Definitely the best churro I've ever had.

We got lucky and they were able to squeeze us into seats at the bar area, which ended up being the best possible spot because we had a front-row view of the live fire cooking the entire night. The ambiance was lively and hip, with a great energy that made the whole experience feel exciting. This was my first time watching each main courses get cooked over live fire in real time, which added to our amazement given that all the dishes came out cooked to the right doneness. Every bite of meat and seafood was perfectly kissed with flame -- the char, the subtle smoke, the texture. Beyond the fire element, you can really taste how fresh everything is. Nothing felt heavy or muddled. Each dish was well thought out with balanced flavors, but the ingredients and that fire/smoke magic were always the main event. Service was also superb. All the staff were attentive and high-energy. Different servers checked up on us throughout the meal, our water was always kept full, and dishes were cleared in a timely manner. Only drawback: the heat. Sitting by the fire is incredible for the show, but it definitely started to feel like a sauna at times. Still, I'd do it again and choose to sit at the bar without hesitation. If you're in Toronto and you love a tasting menu, this is a must. Just make sure you book at least a month in advance - it's popular for a reason.

The inside was nice, it was dark with ambient lighting and decorated with a modern and Mexican theme. The waitress was super nice, and the staff were fairly attentive. We got the chips and guac to start. I do wish they gave a little bit more walk because it came in this really small cup so we had to go light on the guac to chip ratio. But overall the guac was yummy and the chips were very crunchy with a nice seasoning. They have a special every day of the week and Thursdays are there crunch tacos, which are hard shell tacos, wrapped in a soft shell taco with some sauce in between, and you can choose between their chorizo or chicken.

You enter the restaurant from a set of stairs outside and the restaurant doesn't look too appealing from outside. Also, the restaurant always seems busy and/or small, so it's always loud and service is slow. With the negatives out of the way, let me explain why I love La Carnita! The food is amazing! Their tacos are on point, and with so many to choose from I can go back multiple times can never get bored. Each of their tacos has something different to offer and each has relatively good balance to them. The balance of freshness and savory (and sometimes sweet) toppings is well done, making me come back for more. The one item that pushes La Carnita over the top is their nachos! Homemade nacho chips with gooey cheese and a generous amount of toppings makes them my favorite nachos in Toronto! One last observation is that the service is always friendly. They may be (very) slow at times but they seem like they always try their best and are always quite pleasant. Overall, I love La Carnita and when I get a craving for tacos and nachos, I'm heading straight here!
