El Quixico — Restaurant in Tokyo

A quaint Mexican restaurant less than a 5 min walk from Nishi-Ogikubo station's South Exit. Owned by an oji-san who indeed does all the cooking, serving, ringing up, etc. I've been a handful of times and this place never disappoints! All the meat is tender and well seasoned, the drinks are a bit pricey but a wide selection is offered, and the atmosphere is also wonderful. All the masks and other art drawn on the walls were done by the oji-san as well! I definitely recommend the Burrito Set (pictured) as its the best value for the amount. Chicken is great but the beef variety is superb - actually authentic which can be hard to come by in Japan! Recommend to anybody in the area...

We went on a Friday evening and there were a few empty tables, but otherwise it was pretty busy. The place is quaint and feels homey. Only the owner works in the restaurant so it took a while for the food to come. We ordered the tacos and the enchiladas. I don't mind waiting for really good food so although the pork meat was good, the beef was a bit overcooked. The bean sauce and the tortillas were great though, although the overall portions were small. We ordered some nachos as we weren't full yet and again, we had to wait quite a bit (although the guacamole was pretty good). All in all, it was an ok experience but not...

Delicious food with generous portions. The service is okay in Japanese standards but typical if you come from anywhere else. The guy is very chill and straightforward (reminded me of a very typical American service & kinda liked it) , but very understandable since he’s busy running the place himself. Loved this pace and would come again! Also recommend the coconut frozen marg And Burritos...
