Ok I’m from Texas so I have to say that I already have high expectations for Mexican food. I was told this place has the best Mexican food in Helsinki. I went there and I was sorely disappointed. Not only were the portions small(everything is bigger in Texas right?), but the flavor was bland. Also what I got only shallowly represents what I remember as Mexican(or Tex-Mex) in real Tex Mex country. I don’t know if its a problem with import taxes or something but you Finnish people REALLY need to come visit Texas and THEN try to go back there and see it the same way. If you do then then I would like to hear your opinions as well!

Sehr schöné 2geschossige Location mit sehr feinem mexikanischem internationalen Essen! Sehr schmackhaft und bei guter Bedienung, verweilt man hier gerne länger! Zwar wie überall in Helsinki teuer, aber es lohnt sich auf alle Fälle hierher zu gehen und zu speisen!! Auch phantastische Mittagsangebote! Die Fleischspeisen sind allemal zu empfehlen und immer so gebraten/gegrillt wie gewünscht!

Very nice Tex-Mex kind of Bar. I don’t really remember if they had food the first time I was there, but they had a vast variety of drinks. I was looking for a cocktail, but couldn’t remember the recipe. so the barkeeper and I tried a lot of different possibilities until we got it right… It was a great night I spent there and I staggered back to the hotel really drunk and with a free T-Shirt. The next time I went there, I had a good dinner, not too expensive and the food was better than acceptable, so I can absolutely recommend it and I will go there again when I come back to Helsinki!

I could describe this place with one word — rubbish. The weird deep-fried platter was fairly disgusting, and didn’t really qualify as a meal in my book. I’m giving it 2 stars only because the staff were really friendly and kept bringing more beer very quickly, which is what was required.

Classic tex-mex restaurant in Helsinki, being one of the first. It was also first place in Finland to have slammer girls serving tequila. For those reasons people of my generation go there every once and a while for nostalgic reasons. Food has never disappointed me, but it is not for those looking for a cheap meal.

Le soir tard, rendez-vous au Cantina West pour essayer le Salmiakki Kossu, vodka marinée au réglisse
