Came here for pre-dinner drinks with a friend and I must say it's a COMPLETE GEM. I don't know why more people don't come to eat here, it's awesome. I pass by on my way to work every day but I never noticed it.
We sat out on the patio and it was an extremely nice day. It let us talk and catch up since we haven't in a while. Our table was a little weird, every time I leaned on it it would roll because of the wheels on the bottom.
The service was amazing, but it was also not super busy at 5PM on a Friday - it started picking up around 7PM after we left. The server was very attentive to our needs, periodically checking in but not *too* often.
The food/drink was unbelievable! I had a strawberry daiquiri and my friend had a piña colada. They use real coconuts and real strawberries (albeit they were frozen) and they tasted AMAZING, better than the ones I had in Mexico. We had some chips with guacamole and it was sooooooo fresh. They make their chips in house and you can really tell. Very comparable to one restaurant I went to in Mexico called Coco Cabana outside our resort in Cancun. -

I'm all for small, authentic , family run business , and this is exactly what you get at Mexico Lindo.
My friend and I visited on a Wednesday afternoon & we were one of two tables. I ordered the guacamole, & fish tacos (on special on Wednesday's) & my friend ordered the beef chimichanga.
The guacamole was amazing- lasted us 3-4 refills of chips. It was fresh, smooth & the perfect consistency. I just wish it came with better salsa (tasted like the basic Tostitos one out of the jar).
The fish tacos- were okay at most. Not much flavour in the tacos (I've had better at JOEYS & other chain restos). Their rice however was fresh & delicious and their salad tasted like a Greek salad but was still very good. Also- there was nothing spicy or flavourful about the dish which is why I was disappointed.
The chimichangas- my friend ordered beef but got chicken. Not the biggest deal to us but still odd how the waitress forgot when we were one of two tables. She liked her dish and it was so filling!
Overall, my friend and I both left with take out boxes because of how filling everything was. Majority - if not all- plates come with beans, rice & salad. Service and food were mediocre at best (the birchmount express location is much better) but I will come back here to support the family's business. -

The decor is nice and the atmosphere feels right, but this place lacked a bit of service attention.
We dropped by for a quick bite as we love Mexican food. We ended up ordering the fajitas for two. It was a large portion of meat (we got chicken and chorizo mix) but there were only 5 (five) tiny tortillas... that didn't make sense to me. 2 or us, lots of meat, but very few tortillas...we asked and we had to pay to get more, which I thought was not reasonable. I didn't get more cause I'm cheap. Also, we got a tiny container of sour cream.
Overall it felt like they offered very little in terms of condiments.
I waited a good 5-10 minutes to get more napkins and some hot sauce (Something good and spicy) but no luck. I ended up getting up and walking to the front to ask for it. Overall the service wasn't great.
The fajitas were good but nothing out of this world. The selection of Mexican beers was also limited.
We will have to keep looking for the ultimate Mexican Food place! -

Excellent restaurant! Speedy service. Food arrived hot and fresh. Price was reasonable. Highly recommend, either for a solo meal or with friends.

We came here for Father's Day dinner on a slow Sunday. On google, it said the restaurant was closed on Sunday but apparently not ( they are open until 9pm), however when we called for a reservation they said they don't take reservation on Friday, Saturday and Sunday and that they were open till 8 pm.
Restaurant was almost empty and after eating the food here we understand why. Service was okay, food was so-so! Nothing extraordinary that I can talk about nor I would return for.
