Yup, it's an eatery from the Tacofino crew. Middle eastern food.


Any idea when they will open?

I think the one downtown closed years ago (now Varsha) - does that mean they're completely out of the CRD now?

With Quiznos closing on Douglas a few years back and now with the Vic West one gone, it's looking like their soggy sandwiches may be going the way of peri-peri-chicken...

I'm sad to hear they're closing.  I'll miss that chicken. :(

Is it a good Mexican restaurant? I could go for another good Tex Mex option in town.

Anything more specific than "the Mexican restaurant in Esquimalt". Name? Location?

It's authentic Mexican food, no tex mex there that I saw (albeit may there's some, but I didn't pick up on it). The food is awesome.

You need to explore more so you understand my vague post like everyone else does. Yes la Tortilla

I think you could have phrased that differently without seeming so insulting.

 

Instead of "handing out", how about "distributing"? Doesn't that sound better?

We hand out flyers, we hand out business cards, and we hand out a number of other things such as samples - like the man in the commercial. There's no difference there... but the man could've just been labelled a man... by anyone other than HB I suppose  -_-

Can we keep "short bald guy" though?

"The A&W advertisement in which the short & bald travelling gentleman distributes nourishing and delicious meals to appreciative locals..."

I think "advertisement" sounds less crass than "commercial".

You mean vertically/follicly-differently-abled  person of whatever gender they identify.

You can be the tall guy, the handsome guy, the sharp-dressed guy, the funny guy; but lose your hair and you become the bald guy.
