Fun atmosphere at El Mexicano. Friendly staff. The music is nice but a little loud depending where you sit. Good food choices for people who prefer vegetarian options also delicious cocktails (& mocktails!) plus Mexican hot chocolate perfect on a cold day.

One of our dishes was amazing but the other dish lacked seasoning. It was meant to be medium heat but was so bland and lacked spice. The manager took the the cost of the dish off our bill which was appreciate. Overall our experience was average, didnt feel like we were special.

It was ok. Our booking was for 9 and the table was set for 8. Our order was slightly mixed up. We ordered more as we were still hungry but it took so long we opted for paying and leaving without having it.

Service was bad, mains came out with our entrees, had to go get more water as no one came around. Was waiting at the table to pay but ended up going to the counter. We would’ve got desserts but no one asked us. We wouldn’t recommend dining here.

Fantastic food, packed with flavour! We have the tower of margaritas too! Yummo! The pricing was great and serving size good. The only draw back for us was that it was a bit noisy. Some people may prefer the noise for atmosphere, but it was loud. Would recommend this restaurant to anyone who enjoys Mexican foods & flavours. Thank you for a fabulous meal. Perhaps the balcony seating for us next time.

Wouldn’t allow us to sit outside until we asked again. Wasn’t clear on how to order, we assumed table service. Wrong meals were delivered. We would have ordered more drinks but the line to order was too long so it was easier to just leave.
