Hands down the best authentic Mexican food outside of Mexico that you're going to find. Julian uses traditional spices and chilis prepped the traditional way. Traditional toppings really complete the authentic taste and feel of the food! You won't find cheese on tacos, or lettuce, or tomato - what you will find is guac, pickled onions, cilantro, lime, and other traditionally used foods instead. Julian has truly brought the taste of Mexico to Canada!!Every time we stop in, it's so hard to decide what to order. Everything looks amazing, and I'm never disappointed with what we pick. Chips and Ranchera Sauce are a must-have appetizer every time. Tacos, whether it's Pork Al Pastor, Chicken Tinga, Pork Cochinita Pibil, or Beef Barbacoa are always a a flavourful option. Beef Birra soup is wonderful, especially on a chilly Canadian day. Enchiladas, currently done with a green tomatillo sauce at the time of my update are my new obsession. Someday I'll remember to leave enough room in my stomach for Tres Leches cake or churros for dessert. Oh, and cannot forget Julian's take on Cafe de Olla with cane sugar to finish off the meal - no cloves so it is toned down a little, but so good I didn't miss the cloves. If you want to stay authentic, don't add milk - I normally take cream or milk with my coffee, but this doesn't need it nor does the milk add anything to the overall flavour.Be sure to ask what he's got going for peppers when you're in too - last time we visited, he was making pickled scotch bonnets, this time he had pickled jalapeños. They make a great addition to any dish if you'd like to up the heat a little!Last but not least, today I learned I can buy and take home any of his sauces when I stop by. I hope he makes Rancherra sauce in extra large batches, because it's now my go-to for any get together!Edit to add I finally had the Tres Leches Cake and I'm not ashamed to say I didn't leave a single bit behind, it's that incredibly good! Photo added to prove it was on the plate at one point!Parking: Limited street parking, however they're near the intersection where you turn to go to the free lot.

Great food but disappointed with the very small portion of rice. We had tacos which were really good, but we were still very hungry.

I’ll say this….Best authentic Mexican cuisine in Ontario. Everything I ordered was superb, from the nachos to the tacos to the margaritas. I appreciate the details and effort put into this place to make it feel like you’re ordering straight from the yucatan peninsula.
