Tacorrito

Tried the fish tacos and they were pretty good.
Loaded with toppings and tasty.
Worth a try if in the area.
Will try the Mexican poutine next.

What is happening to food joints in Toronto. I came thinking will have some light on the go meal at this place. The said had no flavour and the meat was so dry on top. The person serving did not even understand the English. I am not coming back here either.

It ain’t no Chipotle. That’s for sure…
Their ingredients seem fresh enough, but the flavour just isn’t there for me. Also, the temperature of the food seemed a little cold to me. Maybe it just cooled down really quickly due to the cold weather, but it made it a lot less enjoyable.
I’ll give them points on the style and décor of the place, though. Very cute and modern with lots of colour and personality. Now if they could just add some of that to their food…

Their tacos and bowls are kinda ‘mehh’, but i would recommend their mexican poutine. However if you order it with meat, DO NOT get their pork. worst ‘pulled pork’ ever. Just so dry and flavourless. Would be better if they didn’t copy Chipotle and charged for guac.

Great freshly made burrito with all the toppings. Friendly staff and delicious food makes this place perfect for lunch with co workers. Highly recommend it.

the «1 stars» are not even remotely fair at all. the price line is reasonable, the food was average. food prep area and the restaurant were very clean and maintained. would def eat here again to try something else on the menu :)

The food was good, warm and the quesadilla was generous in size. Not loving paying $ 1 for the tiny cup of guacamole but it’s on par with most other places so that’s not a big point for me. Would surely visit again.

Update — I went to this place on Halloween night with friends. I was amazed to see the staff managing the crowd so well. I had never been to Tacorrito in the evening. Loved the fish quesedilla and Mexican Poutine. I highly recommend this place to everyone. Places like these should be encouraged in the neighbourhood !

CAFETERIA FOOD! STAY AWAY!
I’m an idiot for not checking Unilocal first.
I saw they had a fish taco special (3 tacos) for 5.99. I was really excited to try it out considering the seemingly fair price.
First of all, the «taco» they used was worse than a no name brand you could buy at the grocery store, they charge for guacamole (the only other ingredient besides cheap beans, salsa, and lettuce. the sour cream was super watery, the whole taco was FREEZING, and the whole thing tasted like it was full of Tostitos salsa. I legit didn’t even want to finish the other 2 tacos after the first one. I can’t believe someone would open up a restaurant and charge people for extremely poor food. GO TO BURRITO BOYS… Or anywhere else. Id prefer Taco Bell over this place. Do yourself a favour and don’t even bother. Really gross
The only nice thing I can say about this place is that the staff was friendly.

Food quality and quantity leaves much to desire. Nachos were cold, uncooked and service was poor. Would not recommend.

So i had a burrito bowl, definitely overpriced, very little in a «large» burrito bowl and the pulled pork was horrifying, it looked almost like canned tuna and leaked water like it was canned too. There was no iconic pulled pork bbq sauce either so I don’t understand why they don’t market it as «cat food» because what they have there isn’t really «pulled pork».
Typical customizable stuff, had some black beans, pinto beans brown rice, nothing really shined, I suppose their chopped jalapenos and coriander were reasonably fresh. Aside from that not really the best. I wouldn’t come again though the staff are reasonably friendly.

Not good and overpriced. Ordered 2 tacos and was surprised that it wasn’t truly «made to order». Meat was pre-​cooked so who knows when it was actually cooked! Tortillas were heated up but not the meat??? You gotta pay more for guac which isn’t cool. Also the music was so loud and the guy who worked there had a thick accent so just ordering was a challenge. This place has potential which is why I didn’t give it 1-​star but I don’t see it lasting very long under the current business model.
There are a billion other taco places in Toronto you should check out before this place.

It’s not Chipotle. It’s not fair to compare every Burrito place to Chipotle; I get it. The main complaints I have is that everything was overcooked (chicken, rice and beans primarily), the guacamole had turned brown and was unappealing (lack of lemon juice I suspect) and overall there just wasn’t a lot of flavor.
I don’t think Chipotle is by any means the best Burrito you can get… but right now it is the gold standard in popular consciousness and because of its prime location in the village people like me expect similar quality and taste but this place unfortunately just doesn’t have it yet.
If you’re starving and just want anything this place is decent, if you want anything more you should go somewhere else :-(

We wanted to try something new, and after spending some time walking around the village, we ended up at Tacorrito. With a nice variety of meat and vegetarian options… it seemed like a good idea at the time.
Overall, the food wasn’t bad. However, the price really didn’t stand up to the quality of the food. When you spend upwards of $ 30 for two people (2 burritos, 2 drinks), you expect more than a mediocre taste.
I don’t like spice whatsoever, but my partner loves it… and she was disappointed on the lack of levels of actual spice (that they were proud enough to paint on the wall) didn’t show up when talking with the staff.
The chicken wasn’t as fresh as I’d like it, and the rice lacked flavour.
With the overall number of options in the downtown core for burritos, I wouldn’t recommend this location, but I also wouldn’t speak against it as it wasn’t the worst.

«For an extra dollar would you like to add guacamole?»
This is the saddest statement you can hear at a burrito place and usually indicates that the burrito itself will not be great (more on that). What makes your guac so great that you can charge a dollar extra? Burrito Boyz makes their guac fresh and they don’t charge an extra dollar.
What do you know, the burrito wasn’t great! Actually, it was miles from great, what a disappointing burrito, especially when I walked in the place, it looked really cool and interesting. Too bad the food doesn’t match the décor.
Had the chicken burrito, it was barely filled, barely toasted and most importantly it didn’t taste great.
Damn! Was excited to have a new burrito place in the neighbourhood. Hey Burrito Boyz, open a location in the area and show these hacks how it’s done!

I give it 3 stars because of its attempt at trying to make something good. Not like the other burrito places this place is a touch more authentic. They need to heat things up a bit, food should be served warmer. They do have a few wrinkles to work out for sure with service and flow, hopefully that will come in time. Give this place a chance. I’ve had the nachos and the taco’s, the price and portion was reasonable. We have grown so accustomed to our processed franchise style places I don’t think «good» works anymore. We expect everything to taste the same and when something unique opens, we resist. We are the processed society.

Got a burrito bowl. Expecting it to be like chipotle’s (though I didn’t have that high of an expectation). Their ingredients were
lacking in choice. Besides the chicken, everything was very meh. The grilled chicken was good but they give you like a small spoonful. If you think chipotles is skimping on their servings, skip this place. My bowl was like half filled by the time it was done and it was $ 10. Would not be back.

These Mexican burrito spots are blowing up and this is just another one located at Church and Wellesley. Having tried the likes of Chipotle, Z-​Teca, Burrito Boyz, and Burrito Bandidos, this has to be the least favourable one.
I will say that I didn’t have the burrito, but the burrito bowl. Choice of rice, beans, peppers, some toppings, along with 2 meats. One big bonus — no upcharge for choosing two meats (I decided on the pulled pork and steak). Threw on some salsa, beans and off I went with $ 9 less in my pocket.
Overall. the taste was meh — the spice level was great with the spicy salsa, but the rest was just plain and not really enjoyable. I was excited for a new burrito spot in my neighbourhood and maybe that contributed to my high expectations. Or it could be the numerous of other similar restaurants that will get you a more satisfying meal for the same price. Regrettably, I would not recommend.

New to the hood so we hit it up for lunch Monday. I arrived before my friend which gave me time to try and decipher the backward menu board. I presume the figured their line-​up started at the back of the restaurant so the three step menu board is install with step one on the right — totally counter-​intuitive! (My buddy needed it explained! lol)
I told the very young, (and very blonde…) girls I was waiting for a friend and would like some nachos with guac while I waited. This created a confusion as they thought they were out of guac (at the beginning of lunch hour) then had to wrap their pretty heads around it going on a plate, not in a bag…
After my friend arrived and after I explained the confusing menu boards… I turned to the girl and said: «I would like the medium Chicken Quesadilla please.»
The young girl started to prepare it — a very awkward process apparently, then the million dollar question:
The ‘girl’: «What type of meat would you like on that?»
Me (again): «I would like the medium Chicken Quesadilla please.»
The ‘girl’: «Yes, I know, but what type of meat do you want, we have chicken, beef, pulled pork or vegetarian.» [I guess vegetarian in her world is a meat?]
Me: «I prefer chicken on my Chicken Quesadilla please.» (I’m struggling not to roll my eyes or use my Valley Girl accent here.)
The ‘girl’: (Looking a bit perplexed) uh, ok…
The came the slow awkward process of making it, three staff inquiring if I had been served, and if it was to go or to stay…
So the food was good. No complaints, and right size for me.
And they would likely make a killing on the weekends after the bars — although I think the current staff might last about 20 minutes until some patron lost it…
OK they are NEW — I hope they get it right fast. We need new spots in the village.

Living in The Village I saw the opening of Tacorrito. I haven’t eaten here nor at their other location on Richmond St. Walking in just before a dinner rush on Saturday the line was already present. I waited less than 4 minutes to order and had even let a couple move ahead of me as I waited for response for a possible addon order for takeout. The place was clean, lit well and comfortable.
The menu is like other BIY (build-​it-​yourself) places where your order is taken and prepared behind a glass partition so you may inspect everything going into your meal. Each ingredient clearly laid out and NOT messy from spillovers or hurried employees. I ordered a large tilapia burrito with pinto beans, salsa and veggies and a large chicken burrito with black beans, veggies, salsa, sour cream and cheese. Both burritos were sized well to fill a hungry adult for dinner. Combos are available which add restaurant style chips and a coke for $ 3 more or a jarritos for $ 4 more.
The food was flavored and blended well. For $ 20 two burritos with a side of chips and a coke, I felt my meal was ok. 4 stars for price and quality I recommend this new spot in The Village.
