First thing to remember (despite the big Mexican flag),it's a Central American place (El Salvador), so don't expect the regular "Mexican" flavours wih your food.
Skip out on the burritos (go to Burrito Boyz or elsewhere for that) but definitely try the tacos (hard or soft) and the enchilada (like an open hard taco except with black beans added). I heard the pupusas are worth it too (didnt have room to try it out).
Stick to food only to save money, buy beer elsewhere. (3 hard tacos, 1 burrito, 1 enchilada and 4 imported beers = $38.80)
This place is worth trying out!
(Im already craving an enchilada!)
The papusas are amazing. The mixed one is my favorite. The hard tacos, enchiladas and nachos are great as well! Its a busy spot, so come prepared to wait for a table, or grab it take out and go sit in the park. Its cash only, so remember to grab some $ before you get here. If you forget, there is an atm in the grocery type store across the street and a bit east. There are a couple of parking lots near by, and we usually have no trouble finding parking on Bloor.
My girlfriend and I go here all the time for the nachos and the overall price! I highly recommend the nachos! For under $7, they're good enough for a meal. Original and delicious!
