About the restaurant

WELCOME TO THE MULE.

We’re not your traditional Mexican place. We just happen to think that tacos are a dish best served fun, with a side of liquor. Welcome to The Mule, where tacos, tequila and bourbon come to play.

Located in one of Cambridge's most treasured spaces, we think we’ll be your new favourite lunch spot, your regular late-night haunt and your go-to destination for a good drink. Our bartenders have crafted a bourbon- and tequila-focused cocktail menu that will surprise and fascinate, and we also have a variety of beers on tap.

And don’t forget the food. From baja wings to Brussels Sprouts tacos, chef Matthew Kershaw’s menu offers an approachable and fresh twist on your favourite flavours from way down south. Our tacos range from classic Mexican to weird-and-wild-you’ve-gotta-try-this. All of our food is 100% gluten-free and we offer a variety of fare that is sure to delight your vegetarian and vegan side.

Little Italy / College St.

About the restaurant

At Quetzal, we celebrate regional Mexican cuisine, inspired by traditional flavours and cooking styles, all cooked over a 28 foot-long open fire that runs the span of the hot line. Traditional moles, sauces and little-known native ingredients are transported to Toronto and infused with the bounty of local Ontario and Canadian produce, for a one-of-a-kind dining experience. Quetzal is located at the corner of College & Bathurst, at the edges of four Toronto hotspot neighbourhoods: Little Italy, Kensington Market, Harbord Village, and the Annex.

Exceptional from the moment we called to advice of our delay to the leaving. Every single staff member provided the same outstanding service. The curated menu beyond our expectation. Thank you for making our celebration one of the best dining experience we’ve had this year. We’ve been to several Michelin star, recommended restaurants in GTA - you have restored our faith. Amazing . 10 stars if there was one!

About the restaurant

Hello!
My name is Burro. I love chef-inspired tacos, tequila drinks, good music (according to us), vegetarians, bourbon, graffiti, vegans, mood lighting, queso, AND YOU!!

Our kitchen is 100% nut and GLUTEN-FREE, and we are 100% serious about that.

For the "Liquid Diet" sort of crowd. Our bartenders are equally happy to whip you up a hand-crafted creation or a classic cocktail. If you just want a shot of tequila we're into that too.

Okay, that's enough chit-chat. Let's eat.

El Pocho is one of my go to restaurants when we have guests from out of town. It has great ambiance, amazing cocktails, and the food is spectacular. Because it is a small plates restaurant it is has the perfect amount of food for everyone. It is also gluten-free and I can easily take my vegetarian or vegan friends here and ensure they have a delicious meal that is more than just salad. Their sharing menu is also a great value. It is such a bonus that you don't have to make any decisions and only need to wait for the next excellent dish to come out. I can't recommend it enough when you have a group of four or more. The staff is friendly, professional and responsive. You can tell they really care about their craft and want you to have an enjoyable time. El Pocho is one of Toronto's hidden gems and one of the best summer patios. 10/10 recommend

I had my 31st birthday here this year and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! My guests and I had an amazing time and the food and cocktails were phenomenal. Our server was really nice and did a great job handling our table of 8 guests and everything came out quickly. The margaritas, nachos, carnitas tacos and plantain with feta were huge hits and the table and many of my guests ordered interesting cocktails that were well balanced and featured unique ingredients. The ambience of the place was really cool and we got some amazing photos together. 5 stars!

About the restaurant

In both 2022 and 2023, we received the prestigious Bib Gourmand accolade from the Michelin Guide, making us the first fully plant-based restaurant in Canada to achieve such a distinction.

At La Bartola, we take pride in creating an authentic dining experience from scratch. Our corn-based dishes like handmade tortillas, Oaxacan Tetelas, meticulously crafted from non-GMO heirloom corn and traditional Moles, carry the legacy of ancient recipes passed down through generations.

Every meal we serve is a tribute to the artistry and time-honoured techniques of Mexican cuisine.
Our commitment to using high-quality, traditional ingredients brings flavours to life in unparalleled ways. Each dish tells a story of dedication, honouring the cultural heritage while embracing a plant-based philosophy.

Join us on a flavorful journey where each bite is a celebration of artisanal craftsmanship, culinary excellence, and the rich legacy of Mexican gastronomy.
