    The drinks were good, the food was just ok. The carne asada taco in particular was disappointing. Also, they charge $0.25 to get cilantro on the side instead of in the taco. Very strange…

    Lovely spot and always so delicious. I bring people here all the time! It's great for me being celiac, but you'd notice a difference!

    I always bring celiac members of my family here when they visit and it’s always a hit! Food was delicious regardless of dietary restrictions. Cocktails were some of the best I’ve had recently in Toronto. And love the cozy ambience!

    Lovely place to get cocktails and a bite! They can get busy so great to reserve a table. Their margaritas, sours, and pasion are to die for! Definitely will come again.

    This is my second visit to El Pocho and I am even more impressed with the total dining experience offered at this local hotspot than I was the first time. Every single dish my table of 6 sampled was so delicious, so beautiful, so perfectly proportioned. Our favourite is the fish tacos and the fried chicken…can’t remember their spanish names, and this time I had the ceviche ...OH MAN are those good! And the cocktails…the lychee margarita! One thing my daughter notes is that the music is appropriate to the Mexican food, and not too loud, which is really important for us as we love to visit during dinner. Considering how busy they were on a Wednesday night the service was super fast. The amazing thing that no one talks about is that El Pocha is a 100% Gluten Free restaurant…right down to the bar. My daughter can order absolutely anything here just based on what sounds good, not on what might be safe. It’s all safe! Well done El Pocho.

    Great spot, would recommend dinning later if you prefer to dine without children. Seems to have become a family spot, with noisy children. Food is amazing as is the service.
