Steps away from the border of Oakville-Burlington, Guac Mexi Grill is a fast food Mexican establishment which is in a quiet plaza off of Appleby Line. The Monday meal special is one of the best valued meals that comes with a burrito, salsa with chips and a canned soft drink for just $10.99 + tax. I tried the regular carnita (basically pulled pork) burrito, which was also packed with seasoned rice and beans, salsa, and a variety of house made sauces that tantalized the tongue. As I love my hot sauces, for me, the hot sauce was much milder than what I was expecting, but it was still very tasty with a touch of heat. If you're looking for a comparison, Burrito Boyz would be ranked 2nd for me (ironically it's across the street if that's your jam) and Chipotle is a very distant 3rd.

Hygiene is a major concern here. Food poisoning and possible contamination are risks no customer should face. If curry spices ended up in our meals, this suggests either accidental cross-use of spices or poor handwashing practices by staff after eating their own food. Customers should be cautious...
Read moreHi, I wanted to share feedback on a very disappointing experience I had with my recent order. It was the worst chicken bowl I’ve ever had—the portion was extremely small, and there was no rice or beans included. The veggie were leaving liquid in the bown and were tasteless. When I asked about it, the employee (name: Rajat) told me there was nothing they could do and implied that I must not have selected those items, which felt dismissive.
In addition to that, the order didn’t include basic essentials like napkins or forks. I paid $50 for two chicken and veggie salads, and the quality and service fell far below expectations.
I hope this feedback is taken seriously, as this was a frustrating experience for...
