Head to El Grito, the Mountjoy Square taqueria with a warm, buzzing room. Share loaded nachos, tuck into a barbacoa torta and order a round of drinks.
Full description
El Grito is a Mexican taqueria on Mountjoy Square with a casual, social atmosphere and a menu reviewers describe as full of flavour. Nachos and chimichangas are specific highlights, and the barbacoa torta is praised for its meat.
Drinks and attentive waiting staff also earn mentions, as does its ability to handle larger groups, including a birthday table of ten with young children and dietary restrictions. With a 4.5 rating from more than 3,700 reviews and no booking required, it suits walk-ins for a relaxed lunch or evening meal, with a local rather than touristy feel.

Reviews
The ambience and atmosphere truly Mexican, but Pricey and very small portions. Cocktails great, but ordered dairy free food but still served food containing dairy anyway; won’t go back.
