Located in the heart of Guelph’s entertainment district, this culinary doyenne is an amalgam of elegant design and authentic Mexican cuisine. The exposed brick walls, glittering chandeliers, and button-tucked benches set the mood while the tacos – like the ‘Taco Meli’ (shrimp, asadero, Mexican oregano, morita mayo, pork crackling) – seal the deal. As does La Reina’s selection of 60+ tequilas. – From TOQUE’s Little Red Book, 2020
