La Taqueria Pinche Taco Shop - Victoria, British Columbia

We got enchiladas and vegetarian tacos. Enchiladas was good. I also liked the taco with fried cauliflower. The reason for giving it 3 stars is that I believe it’s way overpriced. Their pina colada was served in a super small glass full of ice. You pay 9$ for almost nothing. I ordered steak on ... top of my enchiladas. The sad handful of dried overcooked pieces of meat on my dish costed 8 extra dollars. Read more

Aye yaye yaye! Lunch was everything we could ask for. Fast service and really yummy meals. We had the fried chicken burrito, fish baja tacos, beef burrito and of course the very tasty and chilled Miss Hibiscus Margarita. Definitely coming back to try more tacos and special drinks!

In and out quick for our first try at La Taqueria. The space is pretty cool with the exposed beams and venting overhead, the bar and kitchen being in the middle of the restaurant is also nice. Staff were super friendly and pleasant especially our server. My ... daughter and I had a taco each, she had the al pastor and I the carnitas, both on corn tortillas. I love that they used both a yellow and a blue corn tortillas and were warmed nice and soft but cooked. The carnitas were quite nice. Nice balance of flavours although as a personal preference I wanted a little more crackling/fat to lean meat ratio. All three hot sauces(not pictured) were their own flavour profiles and heat levels so that was A+. The pastor for my daughter, she said was “ok”, she rates it a 3.5 stars as she was looking for that nicely shaven/char from the meat that’s cooked nicely on the spit and she feels she didn’t get that. (She’s had a lot of Al Pastor at different taco stands in Mexico last year, so I feel it’s a fair opinion). The pineapple salsa was a bit much for her in terms of ratio with the meat so she took some off which I ate and I quite liked them actually. Cannot wait to come back to try everything. Read more

Great place for some great tacos 🌮 😋 We have dined here several times now, and as of late, for the Happy Hour menu. Tacos are big and filling and priced well. They are well presented and put together. We had the Fish, Cauliflower, Carnita and Bean tacos, delightful. The ... Guacamole and chips are yummy too, the chips are nice and crunchy with the right amount of seasoning. Definitely recommend. It's our favorite place for tacos any day of the week 😋 Read more

I have this a 5 star, based on the whole experience not just the food. The food was very good, especially the fish tacos, but could easily be a 4 out of 5. What was great was happy hour. Great deals on quality food and drink, and super nice, efficient, friendly ... staff. I would absolutely go back, especially for happy hour! Read more
