I’ve been here five or so times and it was great every time. It’s usually not super busy and the people working there are always nice. They also make some excellent Margarita’s(and fairly well priced compared to other Y&E restaurants). I’ve ordered a few different dishes but their enchiladas are very delicious, especially with the poblano sauce. I usually get the churros for desert which are delicious. The only thing I would suggest to them is to update the restaurant appearance. The booths, table are chairs are quite old and really starting to show their age. It’s definitely a casual restaurant but I wouldn’t mind it to be just a bit classier. Overall though, excellent restaurant.

The food there is amazing, and I’m a fan of this place now :) The Guacamole and Corn Tortillas are the must to order!!! Overall, the food is amazing there and I will definitely go back for another round.

We were in the mood for Mexican and had always walked or drove by this location. We decided to finally give it a shot and were not disappointed. The location is small but has a authentic feel about that stands or among other local restaurants. We had a guacamole, chips and a few tacos for an appetizer and both had great flavour and came pretty quick to our table. The chips for the guacamole were still warm. We had a few main courses. Fajitas were a stand out with a zesty tomato sauce as the base. Over all great experience, large portions and classic authentic Mexican feel. We will absolutely go back!

I like this place. Their food is good, I love the sauces and the décor and the super-friendly staff. My favourite are Chicken Taquitos. I have tried the Mole Sauce, I am not a fan. I have tried a few other things like Pablo Poblano, Fahitas, etc. but tend to order Taquitos more than anything else. When I want sit-down Mexican food, I go to Mariachi’s. Go on your Birthday if you want a cozy experience.

I stopped here on a whim after walking along Yonge between Davisville and Eglinton. The staff was friendly and relaxed. We decided to sit on the patio, which can get very noisy at times from the busy street. However, the people watching could be worth the noise. We ordered the veggie fajitas and Cancun meal, which included a seafood burrito and seafood enchilada with rice and salad. I was a little disappointed with the seafood dishes because the filling consisted mostly of surimi. I believe the dish would have been better off using only shrimp or a flakey white fish. The sauce was really delicious and creamy, but the quality of the filling brings the rest of it down. The veggie fajitas were decent, but there were not enough tortillas to eat the entirely amount of fillings. I find it annoying when that happens, like not having enough bread to mop up the bottom of a yummy soup. I would definitely think twice before returning again, but there were a couple of dishes that perked my interest including a shrimp and cactus appetizer.

It’s rare that I give 1 star for a restaurant. Thats how bad it was. Food tasted awful, overpriced, Sangria tasted like juice with barely any alcohol or fruits, and didnt feel the restaurant was clean. Will not be returning.

Their home-made habanero hot sauce is AMAZING. I believe they sell it… but call ahead, as they often run out and re-stock weekly. Staff are friendly, and accommodated my friend’s keto-diet(happy to switch rice out for salad). Food was yummy, great place to bring friends and family to relax and get a good bite :)

This easily could have been five stars. A few things happened that made sure we won’t bother returning here. First was the wait for drinks and a menu when we arrived. At least 30 mins for the drinks and 10 – 15 for the menu. The problem here is that the person who served us as a waiter is also the bartender(and probably owner.) Ask anyone else on the floor and they wave you off as they don’t parle in English. The other staff only bus food. There is a lovely shorter older lady-extremely pleasant and they are all sweet, but really we are there to eat and drink, and it was just painfully slow. Everything took forever. The food was nice enough, however ridiculously expensive for what you get. We had chicken and chorizo fajitas, tasty but nothing to put on top. Had to order more tortillas because even though it was a double order we didn’t get very many. The guacamole was okay, I can make better though! It was tart and $ 8 for one avocado worth was pricy. Anyway for 3 dishes and ½ litre of wine it was over $ 100. Not coming back. The owner/bartender might not want to be so greedy and allow other competent servers on the floor. We could have easily spent double that amount if we had attention.

I had the guacamole and the fish tacos which were both good but not amazing. I like Mexican food and I’ve definitely had better — especially considering the prices were on the more expensive side. The service, however, was definitely lacking. It took a while to order and the food took well over 30 minutes. Afterwards we asked for the dessert menu as we were craving Churros but also wanted to see other options on the menu. The waiter forgot to bring over the menu until we reminded him 10 minutes later, and once we finally ordered Churros he told us they had just served the last one and they were out. So we waited for the bill which took another 10 minutes and then just walked up to the cash. Overall I still think it’s a good place to eat in the neighbourhood(probably more so when their patio is open) but they could benefit from focusing more on the quality of the food and the service.

Mariachi’s is a cozy little Mexican restaurant just south of Eglinton station. We can here for lunch and it didn’t take long at all to get a table. The price-to-portion ratio is really good! So much food for less than $ 10! I got the Canadian Tire combo which had seafood(shrimp and crab) but I think next time, I would go for the beef. We also got guacamole and chips, which was good(but not amazing). Just a quick tip about the hot sauce — even though its not red, its really hot!

I was at «El Mariachis» this evening for dinner with a friend and it was both our first time eating there even though it’s located in my friend’s neighborhood. The atmosphere was pleasant but I didn’t feel like I was in a real mexican restaurant. Besides having the name of the items on the menu in Spanish and the staff being Hispanic, I still felt like there was something missing in the whole«Mexican» experience. I had a veal steak with rice, beans and a side salad. I was surprise at how small the rice portion was because it was the size of an ice cream scoop and I didn’t have enough to mix with my black beans. The side salad was okay but the highlight of the meal was the veal steak which I really enjoyed but it’s unfortunate that it was the only thing that I liked on my meal. I would defintely come back to this place because it’s a great place to bring a date or or to catch up with friends but I might have to ask for extra portion of the side dishes because I was still hungry when I left the restaurant.

Mariachi’s is one of my go-to restaurants. The staff are always so friendly, the drinks are delicious(we usually get a pitcher of sangria — pricey, but lots of booze!) and the food is fantastic. Highly recommend the flautas as a starter — crispy, topped with the right amount of sour cream, cheese, tomatoes and guac. I usually get the pork tacos, which have the right amount of spice balanced out with pineapple. The hot sauce is homemade and amazing(very spicy). You can buy bottles of it to take home, which many of my friends do after having it for the first time.

Went there with my coworkers for lunch and it was good. The ambience of the place is cute with Mexican music playing in the background They had great service, polite and friendly staff which is always great! The guacamole was deliciously amazing. For the main course I ordered the taco special(beef), it wasn’t too bad. I did ask for a side of sour cream and it tasted a little off, which I wasn’t too happy about. I love my sour cream with tacos! The other thing that I wasn’t too pleased with was the smell of the restaurant, it did smell a little funky. Overall, not bad for a small restaurant!

I love this place, great food and atmoshpere. Very reasonably priced, and good variety. Food is prepared very quickly, so good if your in a hurry. Friendly staff there as well. Margaritas are a good size. Hidden gem, for sure.

I am Mexican, this is a «Mexican style» restaurant, this is not a Mexican restaurant, the menu sounds really good, everything sounds very traditional and appealing, however once you try it it’s less than average. I’ve been here a few times, I tried to give them a second and even a third chance, I thought that maybe if I ordered something g different I was going to like it, but no and on top of that the dishes are extremely overpriced, I don’t recommend it at all, if you want Mexican food go to el trompo and if you want a «Mexican style» restaurant go to Milagro, this one is also more chic and less casual than el trompo.

Great vibe! My table of four ordered lime margaritas and beers, chips with guacamole, chorizo & chicken enchiladas and pork tacos for dinner and all were fabulous! For dessert we shared the fried ice cream and the churros(these were a little doughy then I’ve had in the past, but still good). It is a casual scene and I can’t wait to go back!

If you value atmosphere — this is the place for you! The family atmosphere and décor really add to the experience. There is also a pretty outdoor patio for summer. The food is reasonably priced, tasty and quick! The drinks are amazing but pretty pricey. They are, however, really boozy and get the job done! You haven’t lived until you have done a shot with queen Lupita! ! Great for dates or a night out with friends.

First things first: Great service! They were so polite, friendly and for the most part fast The margaritas were fantastic! I will definitely be back for those! However, the food left my taste buds in complete disappointment! The appetizer was alright– everything was bland for myself and my boyfriend. Entrees: my boyfriend ordered the beef enchiladas. They looked fantastic and I would know, I was looking at his meal for awhile. I was kept waiting for my chicken enchiladas for about an additional 5 – 10 minutes after he got his. When it finally came, my rice was cold! Not to mention? I found a hair in it. I pretty much lost my appetite right there. But I was just too hungry in the end– so I ate around my nasty rice. Again, food was bland! For Mexican food, I expect bold flavours and spices… I got none of this. Not to mention, the«spicy» sauce was not even a hint of spice in there. I gave them three stars because they were über nice and the service was good. However, this is a Mexican place I won’t be visiting again for the food.

I have been here numerous times and they never disappoint. I think it is owned by a family that works there and they are always smiling. I have ordered all types of stuff and nothing has failed me yet. Guacamole is a MUST here because they make it fresh and it is sooo creamy it tastes splendid. Ask them their reco for Tequila and they are sure to make sure they choose what fits your style. We were recommended the Jimador chilled and he was absolutely right it was amazing… so we had a few more lol
