CAREN'S RESTAURANT REVIEW - LA MEZCALERIA
2018 Aug 31st
La Mezcaleria 2 locations 68 E. Cordova in Gastown and 1622 Commercial Drive, East Van
Since 2013 Mezcal has been serving diners true authentic Mexican fare inspired by the different regions in Mexico. Sharing, family style is the best way to enjoy the dishes.
One of the house specialties is the Quesito Fundido, a molted cheese fondue served in
a volcanic stone bowl topped with your choice of salsa. The chips are addictive to say the least, made in house. I encourage you to try the Amigos Flight, which is 2 types of ceviche, a pico de gallo and house guacamole. I am rather predictable in my main order, it is always the fish taco. This for one reason only the fish actually goes from one end of the tortilla to the other. Each bite is full, we have all had the taco where you search for the filling and lettuce isn’t it!
one of the house specials is the grilled beef flank, chorizo & veg on a hot stone with jalapeno cheese crisp and salsa morita. The other must is their Margs don’t leave without
having one, or two!
