Sadly the food was bland and tasteless; hands down, the worst Mexican food I've ever had. We did the Feed Me option and left disappointed. The only thing I enjoyed were the churros.

The food was ok and it was fast (630pm) but we were very uninspired by the small selection on the menu and were left wanting more due to the small size of the meals. The watermelon high cocktail was lovely, but the take on a piña colada was like children's lollies. Not a fan. Much prefer burrito brothers sorry guys

One hundy we b back here!Easy spot for Rudy.Even though I jumped the gun, and went in to order, Mr Mexico obliged and took my order instead of ushering me away back to our table to wait for service.What seemed like minutes later our meals started arriving.Followed expertly by the “how is everything” happiness check.Then table cleared and further follow up.The best thing, the most crucial thing, the thing that we go for: the food was….outstanding.Fresh.Flavourful.Inventive.Thank you Mexico, we’ll be back!

The food here is so far from Mexican (or even Tex-Mex) it was appalling. The prices are expensive for what you get ($9 for 1 taco with barely any filling, $15 for guacamole that was approx 1 avocado and a handful of corn chips, $25 for a tiny carafe of margaritas that poured 2 small glasses). I can’t even put into words how disappointed we all were, so much was wrong with this experience. Luke warm food, only heat seeming to come from chilli powder not peppers. No Colour no Mexican flair no atmosphere no burritos, no corn tortillas, no fajitas, no queso?? I wasI don’t recommend eating here if you’re looking for anything resembling Mexican food. Should have kept walking when we noticed half the sign wasn’t lit outside (bulbs out on MEX) and only “ICO” showing.Update: emailed them as they requested and I never heard back. Totally poor customer service to match the food

I had the beef cheek and duck tacos and they were amazing, also had a quesadilla guacamole and some other entree and everything was absolutely amazing, so tasty and with all the right sauces, the guacamole was made to perfection with the right amount of lime and seasoning. Was good to have a taco where the protein was the star of the show just like you will get in Mexico . I will definitely be back next time I'm visiting the Mt. Well done crew. Oh and amazing service also.

My partner and I went to Mexico Bay fair today and were pleasantly surprised. The customer service was nice, lots of seating.We ordered the degustacion which was only $20 each and came with a Taco, fried chicken, guacamole and totopa. Also came with a house soda.We decided to go for the fish and chicken taco. I would get the chicken again in a heartbeat! The fish on the other hand was alright, I would recommend having the Baja sauce as a side to dip otherwise it runs down your hands.The fried chicken was amazing as well as the sauces.Please put more syrup in the house soda!Would definitely return again!

Great service and lovely food with just one issue that let the experience down for a member at our table. The vegetable sides of broccoli and brussel sprouts were great - way to make vegetables delicious! Duck taco, pork belly taco and fried chicken also really good. I was happy with the size of the meals compared to prices and sizes at other Mexican places. Would’ve been 5 stars except a friend ordered the potato chickpea masa taco because it had just 1 chilli beside it on the menu and it was so so spicy it was inedible by anyone at our table. The fried chicken has 3 chillies next to it and everyone could eat it with no problem. So there is something amiss with the seasoning in the vegetarian option which is a shame and hopefully it can be remedied to more accurately reflect the menu.

We both enjoyed our meals. It seemed a little light on staff members, which seemed to keep everyone busy, and service slightly delayed.But the food was wonderful and we'd definitely return when in the area.I might just add, though the food was delicious, it seemed to lack some Mexican authenticity. I can't explain it.Definitely better than the restaurant chain of brothers that sell burritos.

Such an amazing little restaurant. The service was the best I've ever experienced and the food was so quick to come out and absolutely delicious. We will definitely be coming back very soon.
