Mexican food in Vancouver, BC

La Casita

La Casita

Before a Canucks hockey game last week, we decided to finally try out La Casita in Gastown. We were able to have a quick meal before the game. The service seemed a bit scattered, and I know for sure that they sent our food to the wrong table at first.

Las Margaritas was one of the 2 restaurants we visited for Dine Out this year.

Their dine out menu was only $18 and it included my Scallop Ceviche appetizer, Crab Enchilada main, and Churros dessert. It was a pretty good deal.

I have been craving for enchiladas for a couple months now, therefore I brought myself to Bandidas Taqueria, a Mexican restaurant on Commercial dr.

I was looking for a quick lunch in Vancouver, and my friend suggested that we’d go to Best Burrito, a place he discovered recently. The menu was really simple, I ordered a Chicken Burrito ($8) and watch the owner made it in front of me.

Last week we had a birthday dinner at Cobre in Gastown. After eating there, I thought it was a Mexican fusion restaurant, however according to their website it was a fusion of Argentinian, Cuban, Brazilian and Mexican.

I went on our first food walking expedition with the team, and we went to the highly buzzed La Taqueria Taco Shop. With all the buzz, I was pretty excited to finally get to come here, but I also tried to lower my expectations as much as I could.

Ok, I should start out by saying I am basing El Taco‘s review on the one Fish Taco I had. They might have a signature item on their menu, but this is my Fish Taco experience at El Taco.

Salsa & Agave Mexican Grill, big burritos for hungry hippos

Salsa & Agave Mexican Grill, big burritos for hungry hippos

I’ve been to Salsa & Agave Mexican Grill a couple times, but both times because I needed somewhere to eat, fast. I’ve read a lot of rave reviews about this place, but I’ll have to disagree.

The Mexican food here is only average. The bowl of complimentary chips came with their own salsa. The salsa is pureed with apple sauce like consistency. Pretty weird to combine it with crunchy chips, but doesn’t taste bad.
