Antojo Tacos and Tequila

Authentic Mexican Restaurant Design

Antojo Tacos and Tequila in Halifax opened in January 2018. This Mexican food and beverage outlet was designed and handcrafted by the team at Irish Pub Company and McNally Design.

AN-TOH-HO = Craving is located in the heart of Halifax’s restaurant and entertainment district and is the winner of ‘Best New Restaurant’ in the Nova Scotia Restaurant Awards.

The design details throughout this outlet are exquisite; with hand painted specialist artwork, handcrafted furniture, detailed joinery and millwork throughout. The logos and paintings on the walls feature catrinas or skulls that are part of the ‘Day of the Dead’ holiday in Mexico which honours deceased loved ones.

Bringing an authentic Mexican Restaurant to downtown Halifax

From our client:

Our sincere thanks to you and the team at the Irish Pub Company for your recent design, build, and install of our new Mexican Taqueria, Antojo.

Since opening the doors to our newest hospitality venture, we have been inundated with positive comments regarding the design and the physical finishes. When we tell people that Antojo was designed and built by the same group that designed and built Durty Nellys they are amazed. Your team has truly knocked this project out of the park. You should also be aware that Antojo was the winner of the best design award at the recent Restaurant Associations annual awards ceremony. Please pass on our sincere gratitude to all of your colleagues that touched this project.

We look forward to working with McNally Design and the Irish Pub Company in the future on our 4^th venture.
