What User likes about The Mexican:
Great customer service, incredible authentic Mexican food (homemade chips are to live for), fun atmosphere, lovely staff, and the best place in Vancouver for margaritas. Try anything on the menu... you will leave happy and eager to return! View all feedback. What User doesn't like about The Mexican:
I went last night hoping to taste that delicious Mexican food they used to serve. It wasn't bad but it is no longer the best in Vancouver, sad. There are now better places to have tacos or chimichangas at a better price. I will go back but with lower expectations now. View all feedback.

The Mexican offers authentic and tasty Mexican cuisine in a quaint, neighborhood setting. The small venue may be crowded, but the kind staff and quick kitchen make for a pleasant dining experience. Stick to the 4 for $11/$12 taco and sope specials for a good value. Some dishes like the ceviche may be disappointing, but classics like fish tacos and chimichangas are hits. The small bar offers Mexican beers and margaritas to complement your meal. Overall, The Mexican is a reasonable choice for delicious Mexican food in downtown Vancouver, with great service and unique dishes worth trying.
