It was great experience, the vibe was perfect! It was also our friend’s birthday and they did bring out surprise cake and did a little tradition as well. Overall great, a little pricey for the quantity of food.

Molkagetz has an incredible atmosphere as you feel like you are somewhere in Mexico. The drinks are delicious, but the food can use some work. I had the asada tacos and they were dry and lacked flavor. My friend had the chicken enchiladas and she enjoyed them. I might come back to try other items on the menu. Service was good and prices are very reasonable as well.

This place was phenomenal. The service was outstanding. They were quick, attentive, friendly. The food was deliciousss. We had ordered the guacamole (we can't speak enough of it, we would go back just for that). We also ordered the carnitas and the baja fish. 🤤 The kids had ordered the sopas, which they reallyy enjoyed as well. Overall great place. Definitely coming back.

I reserved a table for 4 here as it was my husband’s birthday. Everything was 10/10 from hospitality, to the authenticity of the food to the ambience and to the drinks! The staff was amazing and they got a special surprise for my husband with sparklers, tres leches cake and 4 shots for us! I had tried the most authentic mexican flavours only in mexico before and was not able to find anything even remotely close to that in Toronto but oh boy, THIS IS PURE AUTHENTIC MEXICAN FOOD! If you go here, you must try the Birria Ramen and Tres Leches cake!!! They truly made my husband’s birthday special. Thank you.
