La Mexicana

Last time around we were moderately happy and since I was feeling like Mexican it was time for another trip back to the Yonge & Bloor location.

At 6:15 on Friday night it was rather empty and no problems getting a seat. It was a bit odd that they didn't seem to want to give us the primo booth by the window "since there was only two of us" but then offering it to the next two people that came in. Once the complimentary chips & salsa came out, we were slightly appeased.

Like last time, I decided to go with pork tamales with beans & salad. There was two pretty sizable corn husk wrapped tamales with a sparse amount of meat and some spicy red sauce and cheese. Overall high amounts of goodness!

Ian went with the combo platter which came with 3 items of the soft taco & enchilada genre. He got some beans & rice with his meal. There wasn't much sharing going on with me, so I can only assume this means that he enjoyed!

For about $35 or so including tax, tip & tap waters, this place is reasonably priced, especially for the often overpriced yorkville neighborhood.
