Pinto (City Centre)

• I ordered a steak burrito with extra guac
• The steak was perfectly cooked so that it was a little pink but not overly chewy and the fillings were plentiful but not so much that the wrap fell apart while being eaten
• What really made it for me was the wrap itself
• S I imagine (regulars is an understatement)
• They have been back to visit and the last time they were back we arranged to meet up for lunch
• There are so many new places here and I was excited to tell them about all of them
• Even although the conversation was over text messages I could tell that they were holding something back &
• It turns out that out of everywhere down here they were really missing Pinto on Queen Street

• My friends had almost the same but with spicier salsa/jalapenos so I was really going with their recommendations
• I chose a Desperados to wash it down with as it seemed fitting then we paid up and took our tray back to our table

• Mexican food never looks very pretty and this was no exception but it was tasty and filling
• The company have also opened another Pinto on Gordon Street but it is smaller than the first one with only a couple of window seats

• You find yourself with some tasty food indeed
• Gordon St and Hope Street is also good for business meetings
