Atomic 10

What an incredible dining experience! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. Claudia served us and was absolutely fantastic—attentive, friendly, and made us feel right at home. Everyone we encountered was just as lovely, creating a truly inviting vibe. And the food… sensational! Every dish was full of flavour and beautifully prepared. Hands down my best new find yet—I’ll definitely be back! UPDATE We’ve since been back a few times, and each visit has been just as outstanding. On our most recent visits, Alexis took care of us and his service was excellent—genuine, attentive, and made the whole evening feel effortless. It’s clear that this place not only has amazing food but also a consistently wonderful team. Can’t wait to return again!

We stumbled upon this place by chance, and it turned out to be a lovely surprise. We started with the tostones, an easy 10/10. Then came the toston chicken sandwich (another 10/10) and the birria tacos (solid 9/10). We also tried a few drinks and beers, and everything was outstanding. There wasn’t a table available when we arrived, but the waitress kindly rearranged things to set up the perfect spot for us. Excellent service all around… friendly, thoughtful, and welcoming. We will return for sure.

Honestly underwhelming experience. The best part were the birria tacos and the atmosphere as it does look really nice inside and the patio are all very cute and quaint. However, the service was a bit ridiculous as I made a reservation for outdoor seating for two but the seat they gave us was right in the sun on a hot day so we were trying to figure out other seating and the hostesses were giving us the nastiest faces, what’s the big deal? I’ve been in the service industry, it is not a big deal if people want to sit somewhere else. They tried seating us next to people but there was a spot in the corner we could sit at if they easily shifted the tables and when we made the request and did so kindly, they looked at us like we were insane but complied. We got the birria tacos which were my favourite, as well as the carne asada tacos and the grilled chicken tacos which we liked. However, I’ve had better tacos and in comparison these weren’t that great. We will not be coming back.

Disappointing Experience – Misleading Menu and Poor Service Response We visited this restaurant as a family, and while the atmosphere was fine, our experience was significantly impacted by poor communication and inadequate service recovery. One member of our group ordered tacos, expecting—as suggested by the menu and the servant —a plate with three different kinds. Instead, three separate dishes were served, each with a different type of taco. This resulted in a portion size far beyond what any individual could reasonably consume. When we raised the issue with our server, they initially acknowledged the mistake but then backtracked and denied any fault. No compensation or goodwill gesture was offered, and we were left to pay an extra + CAD 50 for food that was clearly ordered under a misunderstanding. The food itself was mediocre, and nothing about the dining experience justified the premium pricing. Overall, we left disappointed. The lack of clarity in the menu and the staff’s unwillingness to resolve an obvious issue make it unlikely we would return. We hope management considers improving both communication and service standards.

Rating: 5/10 Visited Atomic 10 with my partner this evening after realizing Itacate was closed on Mondays. Our initial intention was to grab just two tacos (one for each of us) at Itacate and head home ($16) After sitting down, we realized that Atomic 10’s menu is limited to purchasing tacos exclusively in sets of 3. We didn’t mind getting more tacos, but we were surprised that you can’t simply add a taco to the 3 for a fixed price; you have to purchase 3 at a time. We settled with ordering 1 set. Now, as a couple visiting a restaurant, having 3 tacos as a fixed amount is pretty awkward, and leaves you with an odd number to share a single plate. (I’m assuming this is on purpose, so that you’re inclined to purchase more from the kitchen) We ended up doing exactly that by getting the guac+chips to start. I’d have 2 tacos, my partner would have more guac! Seemed like a fair fix to get the portions more even. We were surprised when the guac arrived… the portion is almost comedically small for $12. Kinda like getting a single scoop of ice cream. It also didn’t seem to be freshly made; very uniform and smooth like a batch-made guac. Kinda like an upscale version of the Costco guacamole you get in a tub. The tortilla chips were really solid! Ironically, when the tacos arrived… there was almost the same amount of guac on each tacos than in the entire bowl of guacamole. Kinda… too much; subtracted a bit from being able to enjoy the Carne Asada’s marinade. When you’re ordering the guac+chips, you’d think that the guac would be the main event; not on the tacos ahaha Really love the vibe and atmosphere; the patio was really relaxing and quiet. Servers were kind and quick! When the cheque arrived and the damage was $42 for just 3 tacos and guac, I simply mourned that Itacate had been closed. I don’t mind spending’ money, but I was surprised how little $40 got me here considering the quality. Overall, a bit of a gentrified taco experience. The concept of the Asian-Mexican Fusion deal is really cool, but I hope they improve the portioning of their menu in the future. Especially just being able to add tacos to the pre-fixed set of 3. For now, I’ll be sticking to Itacate just about 100m down the street. Wishing this place the best in the future! Maybe I’ll pop back when I’m looking for exactly 3 tacos, haha. Cheers!

Go too place for fresh tacos and delicious not watered down drinks and cocktails. Easy vibes and easy going atmosphere. Wendy gives the nicest service

Great taco’s, very tasty, and drinks were good. We enjoyed the patio. It is on the pricy side, giving 4.5 due to the prices.

This was my very first time visiting this place!! Everything was delicious, definitely made with love!! Highly recommend trying the birria tacos, very juicy and flavour! Worth every penny!

Came here with a friend that frequents this spot when she's craving tacos and downtown. It's nice and cozy inside with cool funky decor and a cute patio in front for the summer time. Our waiter was great and very attentive. We ordered the yucca fries with chipotle dip, the pad Thai and birria tacos and I ordered a spicy margarita. I loved the rim of the spicy margarita, I couldn't get enough of it! The yucca fries were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside but a bit more dense compared to potato fries. The chipotle sauce is to die for, I could put that on everything! I loved how unique the pad Thai tacos were and the birria tacos were delicious as well. I've only tried Atomic 10 at taco fest but so glad I finally got a chance to try it at the restaurant. I will definitely be back!

My group got the birria tacos, carne asada tacos, and fish tacos. The carne asada tacos came out to each be around 24 CAD after tax and tip (around 18 USD). The tacos are on the smaller side, but they are quite flavorful! The birria tacos are super tender and the shell was the right amount of crunchy. Definitely the highlight of the meal! The fish tacos were pretty decent as well. The carne asada tacos, however, were under seasoned and tough. I recommend the birria tacos if you're dropping by! No complaints about the service either.

Firstly, our server Gienel was extremely genuine, attentive, made us feel 100% welcomed. She wasn't ever intrusive but still extremely observant and always came at the right time. Our dishes were served at the perfect pace, and she even gave us free churros as a welcome to Toronto (we were traveling), so sweet!! She also made me the most amazing spicy margarita - the best I've had. In terms of food also AMAZING!!!!! Juicy and well balanced tacos, will for sure satisfy all your cravings. Their churros are super fresh, soft and almost chewy, yet crispy on the outside, pairing perfectly with their caramel sauce. The interior was unique - colorful and fun. I thoroughly enjoyed this meal from combination of good vibes & good food :) will definitely try to come back if we can!!

Get off of your device and get down to Atomic 10 immediately. Order everything. Amazing food. Cool ambiance. Service is good.

My boyfriend and I tried the Birria Tacos for the first time! Absolutely delicious Good lighting for IG food pics and very vibrant decor. They had very friendly servers and a cool bathroom too! Wish I had more time to try other items on the menu--but I'll be back for sure

Excellent tacos. I've been here a few times now. If you come during the Summer be sure to sit on the patio, not because you want to make the most of the warm weather in a Canadian town but because the joint is so fucking loud you can't hear yourself think. Delicious cocktails, remarkable tacos and sandwiches, and a charming staff. Bonus points for the hilarious bathroom decor. I had the birria tacos and they are excellent. I was so excited to eat them again that I forgot to snap a photo until I was down to my last taco. The only drawback from eating here is that my buddy and I did a bang-bang and this was the follow up to a tremendous cheeseburger and the dairy double punch fucked me up. I had to racewalk home and even had to call my girlfriend so she could open the front door ahead of my arrival making it easier for me to bound into the bathroom and destroy the crapper. I even needed a shower and a nap afterwards. Take it from me kids, take your lactose intolerance seriously. But really good tacos.

Food was sooooo good. A friend and I randomly found this spot while exploring the Toronto area. We were quickly seated with no reservations and the ambience was great. Plenty of outdoor and in door seating, making for a cute spot that's intimate. The food came quick and was delicious. I got the Baja tacos and loved it. It's the perfect meal for when you want something light but still tasteful. Service was great. Definitely recommend!!

Flavorful. Tasted. Damn good tacos. It's tucked off to the side from the main road. (I like that better) it's good y'all. PRICEY! Not gonna lie, but guacamole 10/10. No Queso dip, but that's okay! This is a place I would frequent if I lived in Toronto. I do plan on coming going back one day very soon!

This might be the most flavourful birria tacos I've had ever! The consomé was little heavy on the salt if you ate it alone but perfect after dipping the tacos. We also got the pad Thai taco, which had fried fish and it was unique: didn't taste like Thai / pad Thai but still good. Would definitely recommend the birria and will come back to try other flavours.

Service was great, food was great. We ordered the Platano Frito, Pad Thai Tacos, and Birria Tacos. No complaints whatsoever, the hot hot sauce was pretty spicy but worked really well to balance the tacos, go for the medium if you want a comfortable level of spicy.

I was driving by hoping this was the restaurant I would soon be dinning in as the patio with all the lights, the bright colour caught my attention. There are neon signs all over. The room is red! One wall is covered in the periodic table. The music was hyped creating a great vibe overall. Onto the food, we all tried different tacos from the fish, to crispy chicken to birria tacos. I would have to say the crispy chicken and birria has to be my favourite. I wish they had the option to try the different type instead of purchasing 3 of the same kind. Nonetheless, will return to try more.

The atmosphere and vibe is Immaculate! I love the decor around the entire restaurant even the bathroom has sick images all over the wall. I've tried many things on their menu and even got takeout to go sit at a park nearby. The tacos were amazing and filled with lots of flavor. I can't wait to go back during patio season and have a nice cold beer! If you're looking for awesome food recommendations feel free to check my food page on instagram - @filledupwithfood

The atmosphere and vibe at this restaurant are wonderful with all the decor and colours. Food-wise, I highly recommend La Bamba (shrimp), Pad Thai, and Baja Fish tacos (all priced around 16$). They come in three so if you go with a friend or two, you can get all three and share. As for Black & Yellow, I was so-so on because I personally don't like the beans and fried plantain but my vegetarian friend said it was really good. To each their own, I suppose. The nachos were alright, they need to be eaten quickly or they get hard and stick to the tray because of the cheese. Churros are also pretty tasty (6$ for two) and you get to choose your flavor of sweet sauce - I usually get caramel.

First time trying this taco place. It's a small place. The decor of the restaurant was really detailed. For the tacos we got the K pop, pad Thai, la bamba, and baja fish. We enjoyed all of them! The portions were big and the taste was definitely on point. It comes with a side of lime and hot sauces (mild, medium, and hot). The washroom had a wall of cool meme stickers!

I had the tacos and guacamole and chips. Very tasty and fairly reasonable. The location does not have a lot of seats so I would recommend reservations or do take out

Randomly came across this restaurant and so glad I did. Delicious tacos, great service, definitely try the yuca fries! The food was super fresh, will definitely visit again!

Atomic 10 was the bomb.com!!!! I loved the food from here! I decided to come here while visiting Toronto after looking at a Toronto food bloggers page, that mentioned them. The pictures looked good so we decided to try them for lunch. I'm so happy we did. Our waiter was nice but I will say the service was slow starting out. It seemed to be maybe only 2 waiters so we waited for a few minutes before even getting water and menus. Other than this, everything else was good! We started with appetizers and drinks. We ordered chips, pico and Gauc as well as Yuca Fries. The chips and dips were good. The dips tasted fresh and homemade. The Yuca Fries were the bomb!! They were fried perfectly and to the perfect golden brown. Both the chips and fries were well seasoned. The fries also came with a dipping sauce that was amazing and paired perfectly with the fries. Myself, my husband and our youngest daughter tore these fries up. My husband ordered a classic margarita and I ordered a Blueberry Mojito. His Marg was very good and tasted well made! My mojito was good. My only complaint was that sometimes with certain flavors they tend to taste a little like cough medicine. The cough medicine flavor was not super strong but it was there. However, if I drink from the bottom of the glass I got less of that flavor bc it was sweeter. It was still good though. For lunch we ordered 2 Chicken Plates and Fish Tacos. The chicken plates were amazing. It came with marinated chicken, plantains, Gauc, rice and black beans. All plates come with rice and then you can choose 3 sides. The chicken had the perfect taste and crunch. It was cooked well. Probably the best grilled chicken I've had in awhile. It went so well with everything else on the plate. This was the perfect lunch! We also ordered the beer-battered fish tacos. There are 3 tacos in each order. The tacos were good and fried to the perfect crunch and golden brown. The other toppings that came with it made for the perfect fish taco. Overall, we truly enjoyed Atomic 10. I would highly recommend!

Its a small spot tucked behind other businesses. At first glance of the dishes, its the Wow factor! And they taste as good as they look! We ordered the fish and shrimp tacos, Pollo Loco chicken sandwich and nachos. Every dish was amazing! I preferred the shrimp tacos over the fish (surprisingly). The nachos are the best ive had in Toronto, portions are just right. I went with the Espresso martini, will definitely have another next time. Service was great and they were attentive!

Heard great things about Atomic 10, so when my partner and I were feeling Mexican we opted to give them a try. When we called to place an order we were disappointed that they were out of tortilla chips and the k-pop tacos. However, fortunately there were other items we wanted to try. We ordered the plantains which were amazing. I could eat plantains every day. We split the fish tacos and the carnitas. The fish tacos were great and crispy. The carnitas were also good. We also shared the carne asada tostone. It was really good but the tostone was a bit sharp. lol I'd probably opt for a bun next time. We placed our order by telephone and it was ready for pick-up in 15 mins! The have a very creative menu and can't wait to come back and check out their patio.

Friend took me here after work, now it's a ritual. La Bamba is GOATED especially with the salsa verde! Super underrated and the vibe is always top tier.

It's a fairly small place but has great food and service. Be sure not to confuse it with the larger place next door. Service was fairly quick and they sat us down right away despite coming in a bit early for our reservation time. My girlfriend and I ordered nachos to start. It was a good sized portion with plenty of cheese and sour cream. For drinks I got a standard beer but my girlfriend loved her Atomic Bomb cocktail. For the main course, we both got tacos. I ordered the carne asada and loved the cook on the meat and the touches of goat cheese they added. Portion size was fairly generous as well. My girlfriend had to take some of hers home but she was quite happy with having chicken tacos for lunch the next day. I'm glad I found this place in the St. Clair West area and would love to come back for more patio dining.

Service was great! Super friendly and on top of water etc. Food was delicious (Baja tacos was my order)but they sold out of guacamole. Atmosphere was very fun but music was WAY too loud we were a table of 6 and could not hear each other at all unless sitting next to you and speaking very loudly. When someone was talking on other end of the table you couldn't hear them at all you were trying to read lips lol. Cocktails/margaritas fun but I accidentally ordered a $25 drink by assuming it was a similar price to the other drinks but it was pricey! Oops. Churros for dessert were pretty good. All in all I'd prefer to go to a similar but different Mexican place in the city mostly so that music won't be too loud. We also felt very squeezed into the small restaurant and felt people pressing right behind me every time someone walked by- seating was SO uncomfortable that it actually felt so good to all of us when we stood up after the meal everyone commented how good it felt to get up and I've never had that at a restaurant before. Also smelled like pine sol in the air after they cleaned every table.

Nice little place just off at Clair with a great patio and friendly service. The tacos were tasty and everything is reasonably priced. Could do with some beers on tap though (if possible).

Yum It takes amazing I like the fish taco the most, the shrimp and chicken and steak are like right under the fish

Excellent food and fair prices with warm, friendly and professional staff. Carne asada tacos: Great flavours, very adequately filled and meat was tender & tasty - would absolutely order again! Covered patio is lovely with a high awning and tables that were spaced out. Bathroom was clean.

Very tasty food, and the service was good too. Cool little place with a full bar. It was a little cold the day we were there so had to keep coat on which wasn't great. A little pricy for tacos but I would go again.

This place showed up on my feed one day from BlogTO and the photo encouraged me to come and try it! The place is fairly new and offers patio dining. We ordered the guacamole and chips, pad Thai tacos and the carne asada tacos! Of the three, the pad Thai tacos were the best!!!! So much flavour in the batter. Can't wait to come back to try more!

My first time being indoors for a meal since the lifting of restrictions. I enjoyed their pork plate with sides of fried plantains and yucca fries with a beet salad. My meal was delicious and I especially enjoyed the flavour of the lechon. The service was adequate but I think I was left on my own after my server finished for the night because I needed to get my bill myself. Maybe they were out of practice with customer service given that they just reopened. I'm hoping my next visit is better.

I tried the pollo loco and it was very filling and original, I like the idea of using the plantains as buns, but it lacked a little bit of flavor for my taste. They have good service and lovely place. I will go and try something different once the patio are open.

Picked up sandwiches, a salad and cheesecake in a jar for an easy Friday night dinner. Delicious. The Cubano on the tostone was a great alternative to bread. And the fried chicken sandwich (on bread) was perfect to a hungry teenager. Crispy chicken with lettuce and tomato - simple and tasty. Beet salad a great side. And the cheesecake in a jar. What more is needed? Best part was it took 15 minutes for our order to be prepared so which meant I called, drove over and was home again in far less time than if I had used a delivery app. Highly recommend whether you live in the area or not.

We booked a reservation for 3 a week in advance to celebrate my niece's birthday. The day before I get a call saying that their patio isn't heated and if we move inside we were be put on a high top table. I mentioned that it was fine. Not even 10 minutes later, I get a second call repeating the same request. I said I had already spoken with someone, and they said they would put me at a high top. The day of, I get this same phone call! Honestly, how hard it is to communicate with your own co-workers! When we finally arrive, we get pointed to our table, not showed, barely acknowledged. The "table" in question is less then 12 inches wide and mounted on two pipes, not attached to the wall, and wobbling. When asked if we could move. Even if it was to go to a patio table as it wasn't that cold. We were told their was nothing they could do, and would move us when a table opens up. 20 minutes go by, no one as checked in on us, or even ask if we wanted a drink. Finally we get moved,to the actual bar and another 15 minutes go by before getting our drink order in, and immediately asking us for our food order. My husband was sitting right at the end of the bar with next to no space in front of him for anything other then his drink, the bartender had to fully move her prep area for him to eat. After placing those, it took 15 minutes to get drinks. The food took over a while, but no one checked in after we got our food. No one asked if we wanted a refill on our drinks. Honestly very disappointed, more so after coming here a couple of times already.

The carne asada tacos aren't worth it. For about $30 I got the carne asada tacos with the chips and guacamole on the side and it totally wasn't worth the price for the taste of the food. This isn't good Mexican tacos. The guacamole had way too much lime and the meat was almost tasteless. The place has a nice vibe good for a night out, just not good if you want good food.

Always happy to visit our friends at #atomic10. The patio keeps getting more quaint, the line up keeps getting longer, and the margaritas keep getting yummier! Oh, and the taco selection keeps getting more and more perfecto! Anna and Victor run a very warm and welcoming local kitchen, supported by great staff! Thank you again Atomic10 for another great night!

doesn't look like much but the tacos are good, the manager gives off weird energy, I wouldn't want to work for her...
