    The selection may seem a bit confusing to begin, but you break down your burrito build using either beef, chicken, or wine chorizo.  

    The times I've been there the staff have been busy with other tacos, and the decor is rather clinical.  The view is nice out the window as you sit and chow down.

    The quantity of food you get is the most appealing part of the visit, and the flavors blend together wonderfully.  

    Suggestions : have some additional hot sauce as the heat of the burritos is not extreme enough.  All burritos have a wonderful flavor but never enough heat for me.  The rice used seems instant ( minute rice ) , and a slowly prepared seasoned rice would be better.

    4 out of 5

    would be 5 out of 5 if they would heat up their food a bit ( spicier ) and use slow cooked parboiled rice that isn't minute rice

    The smoky flank steak with salsa verde is a spicy and flavourful combination! So yum! It's filled with lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream, red onions, green peppers. You really taste the smokiness of the cumin, chilli and chipotle adobo spices in the meat. I really liked the salsa verde which is their spiciest salsa; I like spicy food so this wasn't super spicy by my standards but it packs a decent amount of heat.

    The chicken taco is marinated in cumin and chilli and it's filled with red and green peppers, tomatoes, lettuce and sourcream. I asked for the chipotle corn salsa - nothing too great, I'd get the salsa verde next time cause I like the intense flavours and heat from it. This salsa is more chunky and definitely very mild. The chicken is not as jammed packed with spices compared to the flank steak but still just as good. 2 tacos comes to $4.80 after tax. It's a delicious fast and fairly healthy lunch as nothing is deep fried and you get real meat with fresh veggies. You can't go wrong with that!

    There's also burritos, quesadillas, nachos and salads that are around $6-8.

    Note: For a quick casual eatery, this the wait here can be a tad long during the lunch rush, especially on Fridays.

    Winnipeg's first taqueria just might be it's best! Marinated in a myriad of spices, the fillings are a succulent fiesta of flavour. Chicken, Beef and CHORIZO!!!!! And some vegetarian stuff...blah blah blah. These boys have got it right!
