Super tasty Mexican place N of Central Park on Kingsway. Still remember when this place used to be…read moreGreek (Minoas). Parking is available in the lot behind the building, as well on the side streets. The venue looks like it used to be someone's house. There's even what looks like a living room downstairs. Definitely a strange layout. Not sure what goes on there, but the regular dining room seems to be upstairs. There is a nice large S facing patio and large bar area. The place is brightly coloured, with yellow and orange walls. Staff are friendly. No complaints. I had the alambra carnivoro. This thing is pretty epic. Basically a pile of fajita fillings (meat, peppers, onions, peppers, cheese, and more meat bits) in a pile, served with soft tortillas and a pile of sides (rice, refried beans, salsa,and guacamole). I just sat and stared at the big beautiful dish. Maybe I was super hungry, but it was very delicious. I left satisfied and happy. Definitely worth checking out if one needs a Mexican fix in the area. Recommended.

Came here during the "Bite of Burnaby" promotion. 3 course meal for $35. Good pricing and value. I…read moregot this instead of the Taco Tuesdays special - 3 tacos for $12 - because the BoB menu had enchiladas for the main. I love enchilada and that's always my go to order. For the starter I ordered the Esquites. It was nice but too liquidy after a while. The chicken enchilada with red sauce was ok. The refried beans and rice were not the best I had and that was usually my favorite part. The dessert was Passionfruit cheesecake. Initially they said it was out of stock and would replace with tres leches cake (yay my fave). But they somehow managed to find the Passionfruit cheesecake and served that. It was not good at all. It didn't taste like cheesecake. Good thing that's usually not on the menu. R had the tacos instead. I tried some of that. He got the Birria, asada and pastor. Of those, I prefer the pastor. Very tender and flavorful. The horchata was pretty good but at $7, I thought that was a bit on the high side. We may come back for taco Tuesday ($4 each with min 3 purchased) or burrito Wednesday ($14) in future. I'm glad this place is being used again after the Greek restaurant closed when the owners retired. The layout is still the same. It can get really loud at any of the tables by the speakers. The music kinda drowns out any conversation. Parking is available behind. Walking distance to both Patterson and Joyce skytrain stations. Or there's the bus stop nearby.

Formerly Don Oso, they changed their name a few months ago. It's still family run and service was…read moregreat. They're known for their quesabirria taco and it did not disappoint. It was a bit messy to eat but I liked the consommé so much, I could drink it. Taco Tuesday: pollo (roasted chicken) and carnitas (pork) is $3/taco instead of $3.75. I liked the amount of meat that they put on each taco. Carnitas tacos was my favourite, the pork was so juicy.

Went to Sabrosito the other day as I'd seen reviews for their birria tacos. I've been craving these…read moretacos for a while so a friend and I went to check them out. I got an order of two tacos ($15) and my friend got three ($21), and we shared an order of chips with guacamole and salsa. The tacos were delicious, with lots of meat and they were served fresh and piping hot. The consomme was decent but for me lacked a bit of flavour compared to what I've had in the past. The chips were very tasty and both the salsa and guacamole were fresh with bright flavours. At $12, the portion of chips was tiny so I would not order this again. Service was very friendly but minimal - in the sense that you order at the counter and they bring to your table, then clear up when you finish. The restaurant is quite small with 4 tables that can seat 4 people each, but they're not too close together which is nice. I'll definitely return to try some other dishes.

So so good! My new favourite and great price! I do wish they were open later and on weekends,…read morehowever.

Came for something non taco and got the burrito instead. I really wanted the lengua but not sure…read morewhy lengua is offered for tacos and tortas but not burritos. I opted for carnitas. It was dry. I think with the tacos there's a bit of diced onion and tomato on top to compliment the meat. However with the burrito it is pure meat inside. I even tried to put the sour cream, guac, and salsa verde on it but it still was very chewy. I will stick to my lengua tacos. The choriqueso appy was a disappointment. It is super cheesy on top but the bowl is very deep so the rest ot the chorizo under doesnt get any cheese to pair with. The amount of nachos compared to the choriqueso is very little. You basically just have to eat spoonfuls of chorizo at the end. Our friends ordered the steak and the medium rare came medium. It was tough and had a lot of unchewable tendons.

These tacos are bigger and loaded than other usual ones i've seen. we got the grilled chicken taco…read more($8.50) and the pork gringa (aka: carnitas, pulled pork,$8.50) and i think it's a fair price point. pork one was definitely way better than the chicken. it was juicy, full of various sauces and had a nice blend of salt, tanginess and spice. the chicken on the other hand was quite dry. i had to really dump the salsa they served on the side onto this one to cover it up. overall i would definitely go again! these two tacos filled me up and had the right amount of meat and vegetables inside.

We ordered through Uber-Eats. I got my usual crispy chicken burrito. It was very tasty. It did tasted slightly different from what I remembered when I last had it at the downtown location. Nonetheless, it was still very delicious. The chicken could be a bit crispier. I also had their diablo cookie. The cookie tasted more like a ginger cookie. It was also quite strange because it was a bit salty. I really enjoyed the food. Prices is definitely on the higher end and that is probably because we ordered through Uber-Eats. Overall everything was delicious.

Anyway, yes, the mall itself is primarily aimed at the local population, so the wife was pleased to find something different. At first, anyway, in the end she wound up throwing out half the food do it just not being very good. I didn't order anything as the menu was lacking and there was no beer, so I wound up having to go elsewhere. Looks like that was just as well.

I got two chicken and one beef. The chicken was so tender and full of flavour. I usually feel like I'm never full from tacos but the gentleman was very generous with the protein. I was very satisfied. Can't wait to go back to try more, they also have healthy smoothies and smoothie bowls.

Was in the neighbourhood and my boyfriend suggested this place as he used to go many years ago…read morewhile working on King George and when this restaurant was situated at its original location when it was a hole in the wall spot with plastic tables and chairs, plus a Mexican grocery store attached. We arrived around 7:45pm on a Saturday night and it was busy with a FIFA game on the TV. The staff were friendly and we got a table after they cleaned one for us. Really cute authentic Mexican joint run by friendly hard working Mexicans. Each table gets served complimentary chips with salsa, which was amazing. I asked how much to get an extra side of salsa and the waiter told me they don't sell it but for me, he'll get me another free side of salsa. My boyfriend ordered two soft tacos and I got the chicken enchiladas with green salsa plus a lingua (beef tongue) soft taco as I needed leftovers for lunch the next day. We also asked for waters and a grapefruit soda. The food arrived pretty quickly and I really enjoyed the rice, refried beans, and the chicken enchiladas. A lot of Mexican joints have dry chicken but the chicken here is juicy and flavourful. The beef lingua taco was okay - not outstanding but not bad. Their hot salsa and creama sauce were outstanding though - we asked for extra to take home with my enchiladas leftovers. One of the servers forgot our water, soda, and extra salsa but we managed to get it after awhile. He was extremely apologetic but no biggie. Great friendly service with solid food - this might be one of my favourite new spots in Surrey.
