We started with the guacamole & chips which was tasty. One of us had a steak burrito which was tasty as well. One of us had what was supposed to be a chicken fajita. The chicken was not sliced, the onions were not cooked, there was a lot of liquid in the pan, it was not sizzling, it was also covered guacamole & an exorbitant amount of cilantro. To say the least, it was not eaten & they did nothing to compensate. The manager did not even come over after the waitress told him.
The food was delicious. Drinks are honestly really good. Our waiter ( Karan ) made sure that we enjoyed everything & he really made our night better. 5/5, you should try it

Assez mitigé de l'expérience. Mon tacos était bon, & c'était une bonne surprise. Mais le service était lamentable. On se faisait servir 1 verre par 1 verre. On était 4 & à chaque fois le serveur apportez 1 verre après l'autre, en prenant bien 15 mins entre chacun. Je vous rassure il avait 2 mains mais ça a l'air que ça lui tentait pas. On a attendu 40 mins avant de se faire servir à boire. On a jamais eu d'eau pourtant c'est pas faute d'avoir demander. Ils ne débarasser jamais la table fait qu'on était vite encombrer. Les serveurs changer tout le temps, pas moins de 3 personnes qui ont défiler devant nous & ça a jamais était aussi pire de l'un à l'autre. On a vraiment pas eu le goût de donner du tips. C'est certains qu'on ne reviendra pas, surtout pas après un service aussi décevant.
I'm not a taco person & always had "regular" tacos comparable to Taco Bell. Holy f**k this place is the cream of the crop. The tacos are on a whole other world. Everything is fresh & well seasoned. The cocktail list is extensive & has imagination. & the prices are very reasonable. Highly recommended! ⭐️⭐️
This is a staple visit every time we come to Montreal. The service is fantastic & the food is incredible! Also a plus that there are tonnes of gluten free options ☺️
The food was very tasty. I got a pork quesadilla & the portion was very big. The food came fast too. The only thing that could have been better was the service. We sometimes had to ask twice for something because the server forgot about our request. Other than that, they were kind & helpful.
Food & drinks were good. However, the service was the 6 service I've ever experienced in my life. Had to ask to order, had to ask for them to clear the table, & had to ask for literally everything. We ordered desserts, the churros took an hour to come out, & the cheese cake was still frozen. We were there for 3 hours. 2 of those hours were just us waiting.
