Review from Ben B.

Obviously, I love this city. Are we Toronto or Vancouver? No, but that's okay. We've got just about anything you could need or want but with better harbour views and less traffic. Suck on *that*, big cities.
But, every now and then I'm reminded of one thing that we lack that hurts me to my very core: great Mexican food that isn't North-Americanized to death. Short of moving into Mexico Lindo in Fairview, I often times find myself in great need of a Mexican feed.
And that's why the folks at El Gallo at the Seaport Market deserve a big giant hug. Their tostadas and tamales bring me to a whole new level of happiness every time I decide to indulge and a healthy selection of fresh salsas and sauces take my vision from black-and-white to rainbows of peppers, tomatos, avocados, and more.
I'm serious about my love for Mexican, you guys.
Can't find 'em? They're upstairs in their own lovely little corner so that you can enjoy your feast in peace without having to worry about someone knocking your tostada on the ground. Because, let's face it, that should be a punishable offense. -

I love the fabulous, fresh Mexican dishes from El Gallo. The refried beans and quacamole are my favorite, but the salsas and tortillas come a close second.
The only problem is that you can only enjoy them at the Saturday Farmers Market (they're upstairs beside Mike's Fish Shop). So pick up a bunch of dishes to last the weekend, at least.
