Went for my birthday this weekend - absolutely amazing experience!

Not only was the food 10/10 (amazing spicy sauce maison, and best fajitas I’ve ever had), but the service, and the bartender’s spicy
Margaritas were second to none.

Loved it, my friends loved it, will 100% be back! Thanks to the team for such an amazing evening!“

“The food slaps but WHY DOES IT HAVE O TAKE A MILLION AND A HALF YEARS TO ARRIVE WITH HALF MY SAUCE MISSING AND A BUCKET OF CHIPS ORDERED NOT IN MY ORDER 😭 i’m saltier than the chips at this point

Edit: the customer service at foodtastic and with their Quesada app is fantastic though. They reached out and solved my issue, thank you team!! Opt for Quesada app, not uber eats“

Only suggestion I have is to add more variety with the sauces available, although the Chipotle sauce is delicious and spicy.Prices are also very good. A+++ All around!“

“Really great Mexican restaurant, was one of my favorite so far, big portions and great food.

“Vraiment bon !!! Portion enorme ! Le gout est la . On se sent vrsiment au mexique avec l’ambiance et la bouffe“

“Their food is delicious! And they have horchata which is so good. But the best part is that they have a grocery part with products that are kind of hard to find unless you live near those latino grocery stores in Montreal. Authentic and Mexican. Absolute must try!!Seriously though, the horchata is crazy delicious.“

“Excelente y muy recomendable!!“

“Imagine going back to your hometown after a while and going to your grandparents. That is El Amigo in a nutshell

Reservation by phone. On location, not a cat. Only us and the only staff/front of house/cook/etc. Menu: extensive. Atmosphere: drama in Spanish on the TV. Decor: inside your parents house. Not wheelchair accessible. Bring your own wine/beer. Food made on order. Came pretty quick. Good portions. Tasty. Had the restaurant for ourselves until 20:00 came. Then 11 + 2 came at once. Staff overwhelmed but did his job.

Good prices.

TL;DR: come with good company, good wine or beer, and patience and enjoy the pupusas.“

“Surprisingly awesome airport find! We stopped by Carlos & Pepe’s at Montreal airport and had a great experience. We ordered the steak nachos and vampiro tacos, paired with a passion fruit mojito and a glass of white wine. Everything was flavorful, fresh, and super tasty.

The vibe and decor really stood out—it honestly didn’t feel like we were at an airport at all. Chill atmosphere, nice lighting, and a space that made us forget we were in transit.

There was a bit of a wait for the food, but the staff let us know in advance, so no surprises there. And for airport dining, the prices were totally reasonable.

If you’re passing through YUL and craving some solid Mexican food in a relaxing setting, definitely check this place out!“

“Le Tarasco is cozy, colorful, and full of flavor. This family-owned Mexican spot in Hochelaga is all about heart … from the Spanish music videos playing on the TV to the traditional blankets used as table runners and traditional masks decorating the walls.

I stopped by during their Thursday to Sunday special this month:
🌮 $7 for 2 tacos (you pick your meat)
🍺 $7 beers instead of $9
Great deal, great vibe.

Here’s what I tried:
🌽 Pozole – A warm, comforting bowl of soup that tastes like tradition.
🌮 Carnitas Tacos – Juicy and tender with no frills, just flavor.
🍺 Michelada Pequeño – Tangy, spiced, and perfect with tacos.
🍹 Cantarito Pequeño – Zesty and refreshing, like summer in a cup.
🍮 Chocoflan – Soft, rich, and dreamy … part chocolate cake, part flan, all delicious.

The staff was super kind, the portions were just right, and you could feel the pride in every dish.

“BEST TACOS AND TORTAS IN MONTREAL BY FAR!!!!!
From the moment I walked it i knew i hit the jackpot! The birria tacos are to die for, jampacked with meat sauces are absolutely amazing and the “caldo” (broth)…. Id bathe in it !!! A absolute must try!“

“Real Mexican food, extremely courteous service and it really tastes as if you were eating at a taquería back home!!!🤗“

“We went at this new place in the neighbourhood a few days after opening to try it out. We were pleasantly surprised by the atmosphere and the food. We ordered tacos Pastor and enchiladas and the dishes were delicious. Definitely going back again to try more.“

“The Best Mexican Restaurant Experience in the City!

From the moment I walked in, I felt like I was on vacation in Mexico. The ambience was vibrant and authentic, with music, decor, and a welcoming atmosphere that instantly set the mood. But what truly made the experience unforgettable was the food — fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. Every bite transported me to the heart of Mexico.

The staff were just as impressive — warm, friendly, and genuinely passionate about what they do. Their hospitality added a personal touch that made the entire experience feel special. If you’re looking for a true Mexican dining experience, this place is a must-visit!“

“The atmosphere is very nice even if a little crowded in the terrasse. The table-side made guacamole was absolutely amazing, so simple yet so delicious. The fried chicken and the marinated pork tacos were quite tasty, very nice mix of flavors. It was an overall great experience, would definitely recommend to a friend!“

“So good!!!!!!!!!!! I tried it with my boy for the very first time and it is really really good! Muchas gracias! Will come by again!“
