El Sombrero

The food quality and service doesn’t justify the price. I’d rather go to teriyaki next door. Good complimentary chips though!

i wanted roti but they aren’t open on weekends. coincidentally, i was sitting right in front of El Sombrero and knew it must’ve been fate.
there was a poster with enchiladas that was just making my mouth drool, but i ended up ordering burritos for myself and my coworker.
i ordered a chicken burrito and a beef burrito with all toppings. and it came to $ 22 and change.
we ended up cutting both burritos in half just so we cold try both chicken and beef.
these are some pretty big burritos, people. delicious, but big. i managed to scarf them down pretty quickly. and within moments of finishing my meal, i was ready to pass the f out.
i can’t say i was very productive at work afterwards.
although it’s quite pricey, i will go back and try some of the other menu items eventually.

Wasn’t expecting much, but was pleasantly surprised. Got a taco salad with chicken, no dairy or dressing (dietary restrictions) and the meat was seasoned nicely, guacamole was actually green (as opposed to brown at other burrito joints), and the taco bowl was yummy too. I’d come back for sure!

Food was good. Nice size portions but it’s expensive. Burrito and drink almost $ 14. And then they charge if you want a side of salsa.
I could eat it every day but too rich for my blood.

Sign in window clearly indicated $ 11.99 for Monday-​Tuesday special. The person (owner?) inside refused to honour the deal, stating that the $ 11.99 special was for Wednesday (the sign did not indicate that and any reasonable person would read it as Monday-​Tuesday special).
The owner said that they’d give me the deal but they wouldn’t include the measly can of Coke. Now, this is a warning sign: the owner would rather save the 30 – 50 cents (or less) he paid for the can of Coke than satisfy a customer due to an incorrect or unclear sign that they made. This makes me wonder what else they do behind the scenes to save money. Thus, I left.
Lately their menu items are way overpriced anyway. I won’t be back.

I’ve become a regular at this place now, always grabbing lunch and we love their chicken taco salad.
I call ahead every time to let them know I’m coming and they remember me when I come in.
Great ppl and always a pleasant place to come in. I want to try other stuff but I love the salad lol

Another stop on my Insauga Top 5 burrito stops. Here they recommend the Salmon Burrito and also to get the burrito wet. Which I did! I normally stick to chicken/​steak in my burritos but that’s what my whole thing is about atm, trying new things and experiancing the best of sauga. That being said I probably won’t order a salmon burrito again the salmon tasted great but I just don’t feel it belonged with all the other flavors. I’ll stick to land meat thank you! The rice in the burrito had the perfect bite and they were so generous with their rice portions! Holy grains! They only had refried beans which was a downer cause I like whole textured beans in my burrito. The tortilla itself was much more Doughy than other places and the sauce they smothered on top as way too tomato-​based. It was like marinara sauce lol. Andddd… they disnt grill it. Even if i didnt order it wet it still doesnt come grilled, which should be considered sacroligious at this point of the burrito band wagon. Still was a big burrito and gotta give it to then for that El Sombre, you were a one night stand. Was fun but we’ll never cross again lol.

Great customer service, very friendly staff. It was our first time there and the average interior didn’t impress us at first but food was really good. We got a wet burrito and enchiladas as they were recommended by others, here on Unilocal.Both were awesome dishes and we definitely enjoyed it much more then expected. Will definitely go back.

I’ve been coming here for years and I must tell you it has one of the best burritos I’ve tried. The employees, environment, everything is excellent. Me and my boyfriend go there quite often thay they know exactly what we want to get now! I will highly recommend to try this place. We get the wet burrito and sometimes their fries. Their food is to die for!

Awsome and authentic. Eat here all the time.

One word: nachos. The chili makes it because it really is good.
Nothing fancy and not a huge menu, but I haven’t met anyone yet who doesn’t like El Sombrero.

Service was prompt. Cute décor. Average food at best and definitely NOT authentic Mexican or even Texmex. Having said that, most Mexican chains in Toronto aren’t very good.

Get the enchiladas!!! Their best dish likely. Great with guacamole too. Grab a beer and watch the World Cup…

I had a salmon burrito this time… last time I had a beef burrito. I think it was just ok. Nothing really to wow about. Maybe if I do choose to try it next time I will get a wet burrito. Although the hot sauce they have at the tables is pretty good.

Great little place. Surprising to find excellent Mexican in a ‘big-​box’ plaza in Mississagua. Don’t judge a book by it’s façade, this place is very good and authentic as it gets!

I recently went to this place. Food is decent, however it’s very expensive. I ordered a Quesadilla and fries and it cost $ 16. That’s kinda expensive for a place like this. Food is good, but not worth that kinda money.
I’ve been to the place twice before and it’s been pretty empty both times. They need to lower the prices a bit and they will be much busier than now.

Didn’t really mean to go here, but while looking for places to eat, accidentally clicked on it. Place exceeded expectations. Only tried their wet burrito and chili but they were really good.

Best Mexican food in the GTA, in my opinon. Blows «Burrito Boyz» out of the water. Burrito Boyz has a menu consisting of literally 2 items: Burritos, and quesadillas. Considering they can’t cook meat properly for either of them, I really don’t understand what they’ve got going for themselves. At El Sombrero at least you can get the real deal Tex-​Mex/​Mexican foods. Enchiladas, tacos, wet burritos, fajitas, they have it all. Not to mention their fried-​daily nacho chips, bunelos (chocolate tortilla dessert), and chicken tacquitos are all amazing. I have yet to be disappointed by any of the food here. I think you will like it too.
My recommendations: Burrito (chicken), Tacquitos (chicken), Enchiladas, and Bunelos for dessert
The guy who owns the place is very friendly too and has even thrown in some free extras from time to time for being a regular, so this is definitely the kind of small Mom & Pop establishment that I love to support
