Best mexican restaurants in Toronto

The best Mexican restaurants in Toronto do more than tacos and some do not even do tacos . While the tortilla-topped fortes (when offered) are on point, there is a wide variety of roasted meats, conventional stews and sandwiches for you to devour.

El Catrin

This modern Mexican restaurant in the Distillery District is a fiesta for the perceptions. Indoor and outside places are decorated with Dia de los Muertos motifs and vibrant murals, while the menu records esquites, ceviche, tacos and other botanas also as multi-course tasting menus.

Grand Electric

Spend an evening dedicated to tacos and hot squid at this raucous Parkdale restaurant, or an afternoon eating wings, chilaquiles, and pork tinga tostadas. Tall and bourbonade cans of Tecate, Mexicano Caesar cocktails seal the bargain.

El Pocho

This patio-endowed antojitos bar in the Annex is the place to really go for bottles of Mexi-Cali and Negra Modela -style snack food. Carne asada fries tacos, road corn and tortillas with gauc’ all grace the menu, plus on weekends El Pocho does brunch.

El Rey Mezcal Bar

Sip on cocktails and let your tastebuds tour flights of mezcal at Grant van Gameren’s cacti-adorned saloon in Kensington Market. The kitchen is open until last call serving up like quesadillas late night nibbles, potato sope, and empanadas.


Engagement party venue Toronto

Playa Cabana Cantina

No two restaurants are alike within this family of Mexican eateries. At one place you’ll locate neighbourhood-special takes on tacos and tequila. Other locations delve into comfort food, family-style banquets and Mexican-Korean fusion.

Tenoch

This comida on St. Clair West offers an entire range of conventional Mexican staples. Tacos, tortas, tamales, quesadillas, enchiladas and chilaquiles are all on the menu and best appreciated in the brilliantly coloured dining room decorated with Luchador masks.

Torteria San Cosme

The Mexican sandwich shop in Kensington Market has earned a loyal following for its taco-less brand of fast food. Tortas built on pan telera will be the key menu items, but you should not overlook sides like elote and charros (sausage and bean stew) either.

King's Tacos

Traditional Mexican dishes will fill you up at this everyday St. Clair joint. Here, tacos are presented with heaping heaps of meat alongside steaming, ensalada and salsa tortillas for DIY assembly.

La Carnita (John St.)

Loud music, tacos that are overloaded and a tequila-significant drinks menu really are a common thread at every of La Carnita's four places. Daily specials and select apps (such as quesadillas, chorizo meatballs and scorpion wings) are exceptional at each outpost.
