"Liberty’s local Mexican joint serves up a tight, focused menu in a charming, cantina style space. Owners Ivan and Gabriela pay serious respect to the art, culture and history of the slightly less popular corn tortilla, which they make on-site, entirely from scratch.
There’s a real focus on culture here, with educational art adorning the walls and frequent event nights. All ingredients are sourced sustainably, and where possible, locally. Maizal have partnered with a farm in Ontario to produce their own corn, and with educational institutions to expose students to their practices. Their efforts have been recognised with an award for agri-food innovation excellence.
Grab a cactus salad and a chocolate tamal to round out your courses, and wash the whole thing down with horchata, micheladas, or of course, tequila. ¡Que rico!" - NUFF

I am so happy I came across Maizal today! I went to get drinks with my friends after work and I was so happy to discover them at the Bellwoods Brewery! I have Celiac and everything Maizal is Gluten free! They also grow their own vegetables, from the corn for the fresh tortillas to the black beans for their amazing tamales! I got the pork tacos and the black beans tamales, the flavours were so fresh and delicious! I’m so happy to have found them and now I can get great Gluten free Taco’s on Ossington! This is my new go to spot!
Thank you Maizal!

I am so impressed and satisfied with this amazing Traditional Mexican dish. This Taco was DELICIOUS and out of this world... the best I've ever had. I really recommend to try Maizal Totopos, Salsas, Tamales, nixtamal masa and Corn Tortillas freshly made in Toronto. Order online at maizal.ca you will thank me later.

The place definitely has character & the food is delicious! The downside is that being a pretty small place with a pretty big reputation, they pre-mix all the dishes ingredients/sauces, to keep up with the crowd. So you cannot customize a dish, if you have any allergies (for example to onions). Check the menu before going: if you like it the way it is, go ahead and enjoy a nice dinner in a charming location. I lived their mango margarita. Wheelchair accessible, kids friendly and they take credit/debit cards too.

Authentic Mexican food, very well made. The restaurant loses points for the slow service, this happens due to the lack of servers. Seating is limited so come at 5pm when they open, or be prepared to wait a typical wait of 20-30 minutes. Well worth a visit when in Toronto.

Service was wonderful and the food was really good. Ordered the al pastor fish taco and it was delicious!! I would totally order it again the next time I come in. Also got a mojito (it was okay) and the “all around the world” quesadilla

Hands down, the best tortillas and tortilla chips made locally. We usually buy the organic blue corn products as well as salsas, guacamole 🥑 and refried beans. And I’m Mexican, so I know my stuff :)

This is real Mexican food, period.
Maizal honours its namesake by elevating the humble tortilla and masa to create really flavourful "miracles" on a plate.
No overpriced "dapper" chips and guacamole here, rather you'll find the best traditional Mexican food in town, with a more electrifying menu than hipsters places and tacos truly fit for a king.
Don't settle for 7, get all eight quesadillas and enjoy the true "México lindo y querido" on your trip around the world. And don't leave without ordering the "café de olla", it'll warm you up more than a "rebozo" on a cold winter's night.
