Just discovered this place. Only 15 mins drive from the house. Didn't know what to expect. In the basement on one of Dublins gergian buildings on Mountjoy square. Wonderfully decorated with loads or brightly coloured Mexican paraphenalia.
O rdered 3 different types of tacos, sour cream and a guacamole bowl,.....then another 2 tacos beause they were delicious.
My son had a buritto which he said was also delicious and my wife had a buritto bowl with a cocktail.
The food was top class .... so much so that I can't wait to go back. I am always looking for good Mexican food and in El Grito I think I have found it.
5 Tacos, Buritto, buritto bowl, guacamole, 2 sour creams, 2 cokes and a rum & passion fruit cocktail. €69. You can't beat that with a big stick.
El Grito, expect to see a lot of me.

What a great night we had with a friend at El Grito. The Mexican spirit is everywhere, everyone puts a great vibe and is super friendly. The food was amazing. Especially the alambra was heavenly with the guacmole bowl and very good portions. Muchas gracias a todos , we will be back to taste the cocktails 🍸 😉

Delicious, wholesome food, good portion size and great service. Definitely one of the best Mexican food spots in Dublin. Alhambre and Chimichanga is a must try. Would recommend to get a consome along with Tacos. There are plenty of cocktails and beer options. Don't miss the Three milk cake (Tres le ches) I was absolutely blown away by the dessert. Service is excellent and staff is very helpful.

Superb authentic Mexican food with real Mexican beer 🍺 I'd go back just for the beer but the food selection was brilliant.. I'd the meat free vegan meat, which was super tasty and we also had the pulled pork.. which I was reliability informed was perfect 👌
I'll definitely be back.

Really nice place in mountjoy Square. we went a few of us for lunch, and the food was lovely. Simple and well explained menu. Really enjoyed a mix of tacos, great flavours, and reasonably priced .

Very nicely decorated Mexican restaurant highly renowned by Mexicans in Dublin. We tested a variety of food, the winner was the Tostadota to which I added spicy chili con carne, it was delicious and had cactus on it. While waiting you can play at your table a typical Mexican game to get literally shocked with electricity. Apparently this is a traditional pass time in Mexico that gave birth to the name of the restaurant 😱

In giro per Dublino da solo entro da loro di sabato sera.
Il locale è pieno come c’è da aspettarsi, e tuttavia il servizio è veloce. Tacos e chili con carne più bottiglie di acqua minerale grande, 12 €. Cibo buono, speziato al punto giusto da buoni messicani. Personale simpatico e accogliente. Il giudizio positivo se lo meritano..
Around Dublin, alone, I call in on a Saturday night. it’s full of people is expected, yet the service is quick. Tacos with chili and meat plus a large bottle of mineral water, 12 €. The food is good, with the right amount of spices to be called Mexican. The stuff is friendly and kind. A positive judge is well-deserved.
