This is a very quaint basement restaurant. Loved it. You are welcomed upon descending the stairs. You order at the cash from a good menu selection, and your food is delivered at the table. I had chicken enchiladas served with rice an beans, which you can complement with a salsa bar. Excellent. Lovely service.

I got beef and chicken tacos, both were dry and tasteless. The salsa bar helped, but that meat was still so dry. Had no problems with the sides (beans and salad). Enjoyed the Pina colada

Ahora in ByWard Market is an authentic Mexican restaurant, especially with the Plato Ahora Pollo – juicy, well-seasoned chicken with fresh sides. The vibe is casual and colourful, and service is friendly. However, the Tres Leches dessert was a little disappointing – so soggy and missing that creamy richness. Still, worth visiting for the mains!

My favourite place to get a burrito in Ottawa. Great location downtown, but easy to miss since it’s downstairs. I’ve never had an issue getting seated, and service is quick. You order and pay at the front, and then they bring your order to your table. The Cinco De Mayo beer-margarita is a great addition as well.

Tried this small but well organised Mexican restaurant in Ottawa and overall it was good experience. The food was okay as it lacked spicy and flavours. It was also a bit cheesy for my liking which took away from the more traditional Mexican flavours I was hoping for. The potion size was great!
