Review Summary

Chilanga Taqueria comes across as a casual, cozy spot with generous portions and affordable prices, and many reviews praise the tacos, birria, suadero and other fillings as tasty and authentic, with drinks like margaritas that are well received. The menu is varied, including pastor, shrimp, chorizo, potatoes and enchiladas, and several readers call it the best tacos in town. The interior is described as basic but welcoming, and the staff are often friendly and quick, although service can be slow and experiences sometimes vary. The location in the Village attracts crowds for friends, family, dates or solo visits, and a small outdoor terrace is noted. A few reviews warn to check food before leaving due to occasional dryness or blandness, and there is mention of a no takeout policy in one note. Overall, Chilanga Taqueria is viewed as a strong option for authentic Mexican cooking in a casual, affordable setting, with experiences ranging from exceptionally delicious meals to occasional inconsistencies.

Nice restaurant in the queer area of Montreal. The quesadilla was delicious. Also the churros were a great dessert. The guy serving us was very helpful. The interior of the place could be a bit warmer. Nice we could try typical Mexican drinks.

small mexican restaurant in the Gay Village. The waiter was very kind & helped us with the menu. Amazing portions of food for fairly cheap prices. Food was a bit cold & bland.

Great Mexican place located in the middle of the village. Food was fresh & tasty for a really good price. Lots of options on the menu for both meat & seafood, will definitely give it another go to try more stuff.

As someone who appreciates authentic Mexican cuisine & has spent considerable time exploring the culinary scene in Mexico City & its surrounding areas, I can confidently say that the flavors here are truly genuine. From the rich beans to the fresh salsa, each dish brings a taste of Mexico to the table. The Birria is tender & flavourful, & the fresh cilantro adds a refreshing note to every bite (Emphasis on Fresh as a lot of restaurants do not nail this very important detail). The prices are very reasonable, especially considering the location on St. Catherine in Montreal. Portions are just right, & the service is prompt & friendly, making for a satisfying dining experience.

I've eaten at Mexican restaurants all over, this place wasn't good. The tacos tasted bland & dry, & no matter how much lime I squeezed onto it, it did not make it taste any better. The tacos were expensive! You would think for the price, they would taste good. The chips for the guacamole were burnt, & had no flavor. The churros we got for dessert barely had any sugar on it, & tasted like sourdough bread. A Chipotle has better food than this restaurant. Service was super slow, had to wave down someone anytime I wanted something (they were all talking at the front).

Wide variety of authentic dishes at affordable prices. Beer tower (3 liters) for $40 is a great deal! It's never empty & there's a reason for it, best mexican food in the neighborhood.

Unfortunatly can hardly speak french & minimal english. Food okay but if being in Mexico in the heart of the gay Village is your fancy, where you cannot be served in your own language I guess that's the place. 25$ buffet all you can eat is gross, soft mexican stools & irritating collon... ____________________________________________________ Still do not have a website & still not have a permit for booze! Cheap eats, not or me. I would of loved to try it.

This is authentic Birria my friends! I love coming here with my gf & just enjoy the food & the great service. There are always mexicans eating here so that is the most tale telling sign.

Not going to lie, i never dislike food, had burritos many times at various places, this one was so blend i could barely finish it. Had no taste to it as well. I couldnt even see the beans inside, & im sure something inside was stale. Im not mexican, but usually burritos have rice in them, except the Southern californian burritos & Sonoran burritos. Would have returned it but I dont like drama & it was only 20 dollars. Actually was disgusted when eating, just finished because my culture respects food. Will never go back. The portion size is small too & the potatoes come on the side they better didnt put it, there were only 6-7 tiny pieces accompanied by half raw onions. Very dissatisfied. Had to buy Jarritos to rinse the taste in my mouth.
