About Us
Aquí es Mexico began with a simple idea: to share the flavours, traditions, and warmth of Mexican food with our Sunshine Coast community.
In 2019, Selene Flores and Mel Aguilar opened Aquí es Mexico at Harbour Centre in Madeira Park, bringing their love of Mexican cuisine to the heart of the community. Inspired by traditional flavours and homemade recipes, they set out to create a place where good food and friendly hospitality come together.
Fresh ingredients and daily preparation are at the heart of what we do. From our favourite Mexican classics to satisfying dishes with our own touch, every meal is an opportunity to share a little of Mexico’s rich food culture.
Our motto, “The Soul of Mexico, The Heart of Canada,” reflects what matters most to us: celebrating our Mexican heritage while embracing the community we call home. We believe food has a special way of bringing people together, creating connections and turning everyday meals into memorable moments.
Over the years, Aquí es Mexico has become a favourite gathering place for locals and visitors alike. Our family’s journey has also grown with the opening of Mextizo Mexican Restaurant in Sechelt, allowing us to share our passion for Mexican cuisine with even more people along the Coast.
Whether it’s your first visit or you’re one of our regulars, we’re happy to have you at our table. Thank you for being part of our story.
