"The short version: if you don’t mind paying the right price for excellent food and love Mexican food, go go go! I have given up on Mexican restaurants abroad generally and in Basel in particular. We walked into this restaurant one week lunchtime because everything else around was too busy and had no idea from the outside that this was a Mexican restaurant. What a fantastic surprise. The food was just awesome and being Mexican I know what food Mexican food tastes like. I tried the ceviche at own risk and I had to stop myself from licking the plate to get the last drop of marinade. Making ceviche myself I can appreciate a good ceviche when I eat one. The fish was incredibly fresh tasting and the marinade to die for. The price and amount was in my opinion fair given the quality. My lunch buddy had some tacos and the fillings were delicious. I had a side of rice, wow that was delicate. Essentially these dishes are street food and you can’t get the taste of Mexican street food abroad and it is usually quite suboptimal. These classic dishes have been upgraded to gourmet taste and consequently you pay the price but it is totally worth it. Elsewhere you pay a bit less for Mexican food but it doesn’t taste good (see one of my reviews for comparison). My only suggestion: the rice is amazing but a slightly bigger portion for the price would be welcome. I have seen complaints about waiters not speaking German or being rude, we only had good experience."
