    I'm not local to Barrie, but whenever I'm in the area I try to stop by -- and I've even made the…read more~1‑hour drive just to eat their food. It's always worth it. Pros: The staff are consistently friendly and always remind you about the regular and gluten‑free menus, which offer a variety of options like fish and chips, fries, battered pineapple, and poutine. I have Celiac Disease and have eaten here many times with no issues related to cross‑contamination. My two favourites are the gluten‑free battered mushrooms with house sauce and the poutine -- both generous portions, the mini poutine fills me up. Food is made fresh to order and comes out hot. Simple ordering process you order from their food truck, which has a little sheltered interior. Typically I wait 7-15 mins for the food to be ready, theres also free condiments and seasoning that can be used, and there is a small outdoor picnic areas to sit. It's a nice spot to stop for lunch. Cons: Parking can be difficult during peak times. The food is on the expensive side, especially the gluten‑free menu (which I have to order from due to Celiac). The to‑go utensils are a bit flimsy 50% of the time the forks break, and the elastic bands use to hold the togo lids on broke on 2 out of 3 items I ordered, and one spilled my last trip, which was frustrating. (I'd get gravy on the side just next time). Sometimes the battered mushrooms have a fishy smell makes me believe they are using the same oil as the fish which i dont like, with the mushrooms being a vegetarian option. Finally they dont accept credit cards only cash and debit which may be a hassle to some. Overall I would recommend this restaurant/ food truck to others :)

    The service is excellent. The fish itself - super tasty. Not necessarily better than a good…read morerestaurant or an at home recipe but better than a chain/franchise for sure. BUT. I will not be back. It's a single portion of fish for $18 at the cheapest and up from there. The fries are fine and portion of those is good imo, then you get a teeny coleslaw if you opted for the upgrade which is a regular thing with fish and chips but price wise makes no sense to me.

    This is the only Mexican all you can eat I know of in the GTA or nearby. Certainly it is the only…read moreone in Barrie. So it's great to indulge your love of Mexican (and not Tex-Mex!). That said there're some concessions to Tex-Mex, with the burritos and American cheese on the nachos. We were greeted with servings of what seemed to be light versions of nachos & 2 sopes (like the corresponding items on their menu, but with fewer toppings). The nachos used nice, crispy, firm tortilla chips. The sopes were decent (though I'm not a fan of Hispanic corn dough, since it's quite heavy & has a strong taste) Sopa de tortilla was very rich & tasty & slightly spicy. There was a nice texture from the tortilla bits & pork rinds. Caldo de pollo was good but it was just chicken soup with rice. The tacos were pretty big. Campechano was mostly beef & sausage inside, but was dry with a flat flavour. Yet, it was not the fault of the meat - on its own the stuffing was pretty tasty - it just didn't work in the taco. Camaron was pretty good it had a lot of herbs & had a fresh taste especially with the sour cream. Gringa was good: like Mexican pulled pork - more onion, more sour & less sweet than American pulled pork. Pastor was tasty spiced pork with pineapple, though it was better on its own outside the taco. Pambazo was a soft, very potatoey bun which was pretty good. Enchilada mole was quite small - you could just order 1. It was decent. The lime agua fresca drink had a good lime taste & tasted fresh & homemade. The desserts were decent too. 3 milks cake was pretty good - I've had moister but this was moist & rich. Bunuelos (fried dough) were decent - fresh with nice cinnamon, but very thin so they were all crunch; they were also a bit oily. Ice cream was normal.

    All you can eat tacos. It's gringo tacos. If you're hungry and have a big party - great place!…read moreLocation is good in Downtown Barrie.

    Cocina Mexicana - Very small portion. No accompanying slides, big disappointment. Chicken burrito was cold inside and tasteless.
