El Caliente Modern Mexicano

As a Californian, my diet consist of a mix of Asian food, Mexican food, occasional in n out burgers and various health foods. So being in Tokyo with my friend who studied in California… She knew what’s up and we had Mexican food for her birthday. For being 6, ooo miles away from Mexico, I can’t blame them for not being able to compete with that late night hole in the wall burrito after a drunken night in Los Angeles or San Diego. But what got me was i am in japan, eating Mexican food! How F***ing cool is that! (Can I cuss here?). Anyways my low rating has nothing to do with the food, food was great and the waiter was prompt when I want more beer. What really bothered me was it was my friends birthday and yeh we got a little wild. The waiter freaked out and threatened to call the cake throwing police on us. Good thing I wasn’t drunk enough because I would of sarcastically said «yeh right, go ahead» but then again I am glad I behaved because a lot of the people there I just met that evening. Anyways let’s the people have fun. I get it, Japan’s a reserved country but the new generation is more ok with having… Well fun…

Casual Mexican food.
Lunch has some good choices.
I had Guac & chips plus tacos.
Japanese type but refreshing from everyday Japanese food.

This restaurant is really fun! When you walk in everyone greets you with «hola!» The food is above average for mexican food in tokyo. The seating area is spacious and stylish!
I really like the atmosphere here. I had my birthday party here last year and we had a great time! The outdoor area is also fun in warm weather.
My favorite thing about this place is their original salsas. They usually have a selection of six to nine original salsas and they are all really Good!
I give it four stars because of the lunch menu. It’s small and not usually very good. I highly recommend eating here for dinner NOT lunch. I’ve tried the lunch twice and was disappointed twice. It’s just bad.
