   We went during happy hour and the prices were right and the food was fantastic. I had the cod tacos, which were incredible along with a very yummy margarita. It was the perfect place to have a bite to eat before seeing a concert at the Opera House.

   Service was extremely slow for drinks specifically. Our server was really friendly and upbeat, but we were a party of 8 and it wasn't a full restaurant and even getting a beer took 15-20 minutes. We also got our bills handed to us without asking. Food was good tho, but with how long it took to get drinks it almost feels like with an auto gratuity because of a larger party they don't feel they have to put the effort.

   Delicious. We ate too much. We chose six tacos. Stick with four. The Open Table $35 prix fix was not available. Was over $40 now. The parking is atrocious with the construction

   Appetizers were the best, it wasn’t that busy and service was slow.. took over 20 mins to get our drinks. The tacos had wayyy too much sauce and ingredients were not preportione right. I paid my bill with cash at the end and wasn’t even asked if I wanted change back the server just took the tip and didn’t even say thank you. The best part of the whole meal was the short ribs definitely get these if you decide to try this place !

   The restaurant was terribly understaffed. Despite the extraordinary efforts of the single server, the restaurant desperately needed more staff.

   The food was really good, will definitely come back for the shareable nachos! The vegan options were great as well. The staff was accommodating especially when I requested to change my reservation from indoor to outdoor last minute (the ambience of the outdoor patio is so warm and exciting). Due to the festivities of Canada day, they were a bit understaffed which affected service, but everyone worked really hard to make sure that all guests were attended to. I’ll definitely come again with friends!

   Very disappointing food! It is a poor excuse for a Mexican restaurant

   Food and service was subpar. Our waitress announced that our group (7ppl) would be subjected to an 18% autograt upon arrival. After submitting drink orders, we barely saw her afterwards as she was visibly studying/ on her computer. Every time we needed something we had to flag down/ call out to another staff member. We waited 40 minutes without drink once we were done eating and had to get up and swarm her at the bar to pay. There was one other 2top in the restaurant during our entire experience. Definitely not deserving of 18% as service was terrible and inconsistent. The food was quite soggy. A few of us had the pork belly and the majority was too fatty to eat. We never had a quality check on food to provide feedback. Would recommend visiting the king st location as their service is significantly better, their food was prepared properly, and for overall ambience

    Tacos are incredible. And the 1/2 price Friday tequila special is also a plus!
