About this restaurant

  • Great for happy hour
  • Hot spot

Locally designed with the help of some of Toronto’s best street style artists, La Carnita is the spot to enjoy delicious tacos, a handful of churros, run through a mixtape, and wash it all down with a fresh cocktail or beer. Our aim is to serve up a dynamic menu, and connect with the community through our love of art & music.

Located in the North end of the city at 130 Eglinton Ave E. La Carnita's Uptown location is a beautiful open concept, where guests can cozy up in the Winter or enjoy the wrap-around patio in the Summer.

Our extensive cocktail program includes all the classics as well as daily drink specials.

    I was wondering why the rating for this place dropped, but after dining there recently, it all made sense. Sadly, the food quality and tastiness has greatly changed over the past few months. Feels like menu items have lost a great deal of their flavor . Tacos were only mediocre, and salsa had zero taste whatsoever. The only thing that didn’t change were the drinks. A bit of a disappointment, as it used to be a decent place.
