    Food was ok and service as well. My only complaint is about updating the description of the menu in this app. I was looking for chilaquiles and huevos rancheros that was highlighted in the description, but not longer in the menu.

    It was our first time at Tinga Kim Taqueria. We were celebrating a birthday. The food was amazing. We love the fusion of Korean/Mexican flavours. The staff was very friendly and attentive as well. Thanks for having us.

    Excellent service. The server was very friendly and nice. Food was very tasty. We were a table of 4, everyone enjoyed taco and burrito. We came here on Sunday, 12pm. Very quiet. Cute backyard patio.

    Tl;dr....just go to this place for the tacos. They are legit! I wish someone had told me that before. Because the nachos were awful (squirt cheese...really?!) and the drinks way too sweet and overpriced. Service was friendly, but slow as the servers also had to make the drinks and run the till. Maybe someone called out the night we were there, but if not...better to hire one more staff to make the drinks at very least! Along with the tacos being very good...the ceviche was also quite nice. They do also make a good guac. The flan was also a disappointment...way too dense and the dulce de leche sauce tasted very off.
