Agave & Aguacate / Kensington Market
Agave & Aguacate is not your typical Mexican fast-food joint. Unlike most fast-food cooks, owner and lone-chef Francisco Alejandri trained at the prestigious Stratford Chef School and pours his culinary...
Burrito Bandidos / Annex
Burrito Bandidos arrival in the Annex is sure to bring a smile to the face of many a U of T student. But with Big Fat Burrito setting up shop...
Dos Amigos / Annex
Much like Italian food, Mexican is a cuisine that has been commercialized and turned to trash, worldwide, by fast food chains and supermarket freezer-aisles. When I see the stuff out there...
El Taquito / Weston-Mount Dennis
El Taquito is a Mexican restaurant with a terribly confusing logo. Is that a potato driving a car? In any case, the menu is much more straightforward. Beef, chicken, or...
El Trompo / Kensington Market
El Trompo in Kensington Market, with its west-facing patio, is one of my favourite places to be on a sunny afternoon in Toronto. This spot, serving up delicious and simple...
Frida / Eglinton West
Frida takes some fascinating liberties with the traditional. Gourmet ingredients add a depth of flavour to the most simple of dishes. Duck "Carnitas" tacos have an irresistibly delicate texture, and...
Grand Electric / Parkdale
Grand Electric has Torontonians flocking to Parkdale to sample the powerful Mexican flavours, absorb the pulsating rhythms and imbibe in brown-hued liquor. The brainchild of former Black Hoof'ians, Chef de...
Guacamole Mexican Bistro / Corso Italia
Guacamole Mexican Bistro is a new addition to the Toronto Mexican dining scene. This casual restaurant on St. Clair West offers quesadillas, tortilla soup, guacamole (of course) as well as...
Hernando's Hideaway / King East
Hernando's Hideaway is a small chain with two locations in Toronto. This bright restaurant, found on the second floor of Wellington near Front, serves up Mexican and Tex-Mex cuisine including...
La Cabana / Danforth
Decent Mexican food can be hard to come by in Toronto, but La Cabana on the Danforth ranks up there as one of the better options. ...
La Hacienda / West Queen West
La Hacienda serves up big plates of Tex Mex on Queen West. It's certainly plated its share of nacho orders throughout its 22-year run. Classic round yellow chips and high-quality...
La Mexicana / Yonge & Bloor
La Mexicana is a fairly typical Toronto Mexican restaurant located across from the Toronto Reference Library near Yonge and Bloor....
La Revolucion / Junction
La Revolucion, at the corner of Keele and Dundas, is the sole contender for Mexican restaurants in The Junction, but it is worthy of competition. Owner and operator, Indira opened...
La Tortilleria / Kensington Market
La Tortilleria is Toronto's first place that makes fresh corn tortillas every day. Not quite as good as what you'll find in Mexico, but still better than the frozen or...
Margarita's Fiesta Room / Baldwin Village
Margarita's Fiesta Room in Baldwin Village mixes up a variety of margaritas and Tex-Mex food like guacamole and fajitas. ...
Mariachi's / Yonge & Eglinton
It is really hard to find great Mexican food in this city. Tex-mex. Sure. But there is no true authentic cuisine from this northern Latin American country...
Mexican Salsas Grill / Kensington Market
Mexican Salsas Grill is a new joint promising authentic Mexican fare in the heart of Kensington Market. And while I like Tex Mex as much as the next person...
Mexico Lindo / Bayview and Leaside
Mexico Lindo is a serviceable Mexican restaurant on South Bayview. Don't expect anything too authentic here as the kitchen tends to favour cuisine from the Tex-Mex side of the Mexican...
Mexitaco / Bloorcourt
This is part 1 in a series where I attempt to discover Toronto's best burritos. Mexitaco occupies an awkward spot in Toronto's burrito landscape. The taqueria, located on a corner lot...
Milagro / King West
Milagro is a Mexican cantina on Mercer Street that features more contemporary (and pricier) Mexican food than found elsewhere in the city. On the menu are favourites like tortilla soup,...
Milagro (Yonge St.) / Yonge & Lawrence
Milagro can show you the upsides to Mexican culture, countering all that negative press the country's been getting. Inspired by cantinas there, where you can get authentic Mexican cuisine (ie....
Milagro on Queen / West Queen West
Milagro near Queen and Euclid is the third location in the burgeoning Mexican cantina's empire. For authentic Mexican food (not Tex-Mex) in Toronto it's tough to find a better place...
Paco's Kitchen / Etobicoke
Paco's Kitchen is a Mexican restaurant offering Enchiladas, Quesadillas, and other authentic Mexican fare....
Playa Cabana / Annex
Playa Cabana sits on a quiet residential stretch of Dupont Street just east of Davenport, and is one of the more recent arrivals to the Mexican restaurant scene in Toronto....
Rebozos Mexican Foods / Other
Look no further than the icy heart of this past Valentine's Day blizzard as to why our citizenry seem so nearly pathological about 'authentically' correct ethnic food. This peculiar, culinary...
Tortilla Flats / Queen West
Tortilla Flats has been serving Tex-Mex for 20 years. Famous for their $2.99 Margarita Thursdays....
Utopia Cafe / Little Italy
My perfect summer-time afternoon goes something like this: 1. A table at Utopia's cozy back patio. 2. A pitcher of sangria. 3. Giant burritos that satisfy all my friends - carnivore and herbivore...
