The reviews described Calle Mexico as a "little gem" with "great food" and super friendly staff. Sorry. Okay food (not the nachos which were burnt) and just okay tacos. The staff were pleasant but paid us very little heed. Tres Amigos is better and the Mexican place on Whyte (I understand) better still.
Another hidden gem you could easily pass by, Calle Mexico’s food is fresh and tasty, and popular with the locals. The salsas can be taken as mild or as hot as you wish, and the prices are right too!
Great authentic tacos, always have the el pastor and tried the langua (beef tongue).
We have tried both the food truck and the main restaurant and this place is spot on for reminding us we have a truly Mexican place in the heart of he city.
Reminds me so much of being in Mexico. Be sure to help yourself to the salsas they do enhance help enhance the flavours forsure but the food is just fine as it comes.
If you want truly Mexican food this is the place to go!
If you don’t like this place then you should probably stick to Taco time since you don’t know what REAL MEXICAN food is.
Had Calle catered for an event at work and it was delicious!! Really reminded me of Mexico and everything was fresh, large portions and super tasty!
In the heart of edmonton just outside china town, calle is a bit of a hole in the wall although not dingy or dirty at all. the staff are polite and helpful. the open salsa bar is a nice touch, though I would like to see larger cups and more variety.
the tacos here are some of the best in the city and decent value. the nachos are also some of the best I have ever eaten. I would highly recommend this place to anyone.
I've been to this place many times and it never fails me! My favourite are the fish tacos, probably the best I've had here in Edmonton! Love it!
I Dunno, Like..... Burtis, I Guess
+4.5
Just had three tacos from the food truck at the south side farmers market! Very tasty, hit the spot! I liked the pork one the best. Gonna have to try the restaurant next
Calle Mexico is probably the closest you'll get to authentic Mexican cuisine. Located not really in the most ideal place for a restaurant, the area isn't the greatest and parking can be a tremendous pain. But once you're in its a pretty laid back setup. You can see the kitchen at the front and they have a decent sized menu. You order first, pay, grab your number stub and they'll bring your food to your table. They also have open condiments and napkins for you to help yourself.
I got nachos and dip to snack on and they're pretty bomb. The salsa is not the traditional salsa most know, it's more wet then anything else. But man is it good. Their chips are also super crispy with a super satisfying snap. I also got Horchata. If you don't know Horchata it's a milky drink with warm spices like vanilla & cinnamon. It may sound weird but it's refreshing and light. My girlfriend got Steak (Asada) Tacos. They come with 3 and are small but super damn good. I got their Beef Tongue (Lengua) Tacos and these were delicious. The beef tongue was super tender and almost melted in my mouth with each bite. The food quality and taste is reminiscent of LA's Mexican food but that's where it stops. It's kinda of expensive here like the tacos are almost $12 and even though they were very good I was still hungry.
Calle Mexico is a easy authentic stepping stone into the good old Mexican taco. Damn good but I'm not sold on the price though. Nearly $40 by the end and I was still hungry. Give it a try though but just a try if you can stomach the price.
It's a cold day, I just had the worst day of my life, going past this cute little restaurant I decided to try it out. Needless to say, I walked out happy and full of delight, from the excellent service to the outstanding food done with authenticity had me going back again and again. Gracias por todo.
the guy with the 1 star review......... what is his problem????? this place has great food and atmosphere! friendly service and i'm so glad they're expanding!! usually go with a variety of tacos and of course the horchata to drink, go here you won't regret it! gracias calle mexico me encantan sus tacos :)
Delicious, authentic Mexican food! Somehow the plastic plates and cheap decor just makes the experience feel even more authentic. The food was amazing. The service was quick. I would rate this a hidden gem of Edmonton. 10/10 fully recommend.
This has always been my favourite place for authentic tacos in Edmonton. The original location most exceptionally. The restaurant is CLEAN feels authentic and staff is friendly and committed to providing great service. Jerry stood out to us as a great team player and had no problem stepping away from what he was doing a few times this evening to assist his coworkers and us with anything that was needed without hesitation. We did take out numerous times over covid and even ordered my birthday dinner here one year! The first time I remember coming to this location was with my grandmother who used to have her own car wash/taco place in Cancun, of course even she loved them and said the experience brought her back which is very special. 5 stars, without a second thought - thanks for an all around great experience, always! Calle 107 ♡
Edit: I almost forgot until I added the photos.. don't mind the steak (asadas). I know its not everyone's preference but, I asked for extra cilantro because I love it and BOY DID THEY DELIVER 🙏👌♡
I finally found an authentic Mexican restaurant that my wife can also enjoy. Everything was perfect! I had the #1 and she had the #8 and so good I ordered it again! I left stuffed and ready for a siesta! I highly recommend this place!
Great tacos!! Fast, tasty and great price.
Today was my second time ordering from Calle Mexico. First time was takeout: they were so kind to call and ask me what time I'd be arriving. They'd prepare it closer to my arrival so it's fresh and doesn't get soggy. The second time was delivery: they were so sweet with their little messages, thanking me for supporting their business, which I will GLADLY do again. Highly recommend this restaurant for their amazing flavors and their portions. You will NOT be disappointed! Thank you 😊
Food was decent, little bit of a longer wait on a busy day. While sitting I noticed that take out was quite popular. Give it a try!
Great Restaurant serving up some tasty Mexican cuisine. Staff is super friendly and very accommodating.
