I usually eat Texmex style. Was such a different experience eating authentic Mexican food. I feel like I entered Mexico once I went in that store. That restaurant was the closest thing I tasted to real Mexican food. The Enchilada with Pulled beef was out of this world and the hot sauce is home made has a strong kick to it. Overall felt like I was eating from a family not a business just a great place overall.

This is a great family owned and operated authentic Mexican restaurant. The food is delicious, the price is good vs portion size and the service is out of this world. Ricardo always makes my friends and I feel like family when we go for dinner.
If you havent checked this restaurant out, now is the time to do it!

I came here with a group of six for drinks and dinner. The food was DELICIOUS and the service was fantastic. I loved my dinner, it was so filling I couldn't finish it. Everything was fresh and authentic. I liked that the margaritas had blended ice and the little umbrellas were a nice touch. I will definitely be going back and would recommend this restaurant to a friend!

I highly recommend this restaurant! They have amazing authentic Mexican food. There were tons of options for vegetarians as well which was great and the dessert was delicious as well!
Alison Mclean
The food here is always good. Very flavorful. It's a family business and they really care about the quality of their food, your experience in their restaurant and everything is kept clean. There's always good music playing, you really get that Latin flavor vibe.
They let you customize your order somewhat as well when you have food allergies or dietary restrictions. The plantain dessert is really good as well.
I love love love the quesadilla, and I love how they put shredded cabbage on everything! Don't know how but it works, but it tastes really good.
The owner is usually there and he is very friendly, he even offers to teach you a few Spanish words or phrases. And he always remember a if you've been there before and he remembered where we were from and everything too.
Great place! The share platter is the best deal, great value for your money and you get to try everything!

Super delicious! Real Mexican food outside of Mexico, made 100% from scratch. If you want real Mexican food but can't go to Mexico, then go here. It's amazing! The staff are great as well. Ricardo is excellent at his job and so are the rest of his family. I know I have a new favourite restaurant!

Food and staff was excellent! It felt welcoming and of home. The enchiladas mole were the best I've ever had. Service was quick and good. Highly recommended.

We had a wonderful dinner here. The service was amazing, and the menu was very authentic.
Margaritas are also beautiful. I hope the people of Victoria get out there & support this restaurant as it really is a hidden gem in the city. Would definitely return five stars for sure.🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Join Host Ricardo as he greets you at the door, offers to teach you Spanish, and settles you in for fresh, homemade Mexican Cuisine. Won't be popular to the Fusion and Tex-Mex crowd, but if you're looking for made from scratch Tortillas, Chips, and everything after, this is your spot.
I'm either already there, or considering being there, at any given time.
Love, love, love.

If you like Tex-Mex food, go to Taco Time or Taco Bell, if you want AUTHENTIC Mexican food, you must go to La Tortilla Mexicana, Ricardo was an AMAZING guy and was really making sure we were enjoying out meal, not to mention, the food wasn’t good... it was DELICIOUS! I felt like Home, it’s been a while i haven’t got some good Mexican Food and i finally found it! Definitely will be back here and i recommend the place 10000000%!

Most amazing authentic Mexican food. I keep coming back for more, about 2 times a month! Totally worth it, service with a smile! Look at these chicken enchiladas...
Amanda
I've been here so many times now. It is always a good experience! The food, the people, the decor. If you haven't been here have to check it out. Their fruit drinks are always delicious too! Though I couldn't find the drinks on the menu last time I was there.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 6 STARS IF I COULD!!
Best place for Mexican food on Vancouver island by far. I HIGHLY recommend this place. Everything on the menu tastes just like it does in Mexico and there's not a single bad item.
In the picture is the enchiladas rojas ordered to go and it is DELICIOUS. This is one of my favorite dishes here and the portions are always a good size!
If you are looking for a new place to try or have the opportunity to go here at any time do it and don't think twice about it! You will be thanking yourself later.
The atmosphere is great to, as soon as you walk in you feel like a little piece of Mexico is right here.
I've lived in Victoria for over 24 years and I've never had anything even close to the real mexican home cooking you get here and I would know as I have family in Mexico as does my wife who is from Mexico. She also loves the food here and said to me it tastes exactly like at home.

For years I've been taking my dad (he's mexican) to a bunch of the local Mexican places. Everytime we went he would always be disappointed since the food was always super westernized and overpriced. I still like some of them (shout out tacofino, la Taqueria and la taquisa) but it's true that they aren't very authentic. This place is FULLY AUTHENTIC!! Such good food! Really brought me back to eating proper mexican in Mexico. Also the service was amazing, we asked to pay most of it in cash and then charge 3$ + tip on debit and he offered to just cover it! Of course we payed up but that's something I haven't once experienced here in Victoria. 10/10 would go again.
P.s. photo doesn't do it justice, you have to go in and try it to understand
Arturo Del Moral
Don't know why I can't select 0 stars, they used to be good years ago, but now, the food doesn't have flavor, the carne azada tasted like nothing, same with the beens and the rice, the tacos were swimming on water(no flavor) causing the tortillas to disintegrate before you can even take the first bite at the first taco! Overpriced as well, strongly suggesting to avoid the place, hopefully they improve for the good of clients in the future
Cheryl Serpanchy
Ordered take out, ended up staying to eat in restaurant and it was amazing felt like I was back in Mexico!! Our new favorite Mexican place for sure!! Can't wait to try more from the menu! Great service, fresh authentic food! So happy this is Victoria and now you need one in Langford, best Mexican on island by far!
Richard Hallet
Sorry to be honest but let's be honest. The good old days of Esquimalt are gone. Used to frequent this place all the time for their amazing empanadas and make no mistake they were authentic and absolutely amazing. Tonight I experienced super and I mean super watered down verde sauce and the dough for the empanadas was so thick you couldn't even taste whether it was authentic or not. Basically deep fried dough. Really disappointed my fav mexican place has gone down hill. Good luck to you and your business but you won't have my support anymore. Cheers
Nicole Rojas

Best Mexican food in the whole Victoria. My wife and I enjoyed delicious taste of Plato Fiesta. The best choice for those who are new to Mexican food. You get a little bit of every thing they have to offer. Trying it will help you decide what you like more for your next visit. We had a very nice evening, delicious food, a very friendly server. Definitely going back again for more. 5 stars!
Tony Canevaro
