We ordered on-line, but when we arrived 5 minutes after the stated time our food would be ready, our credit card had been charged, but food preparation had not even started.. It took a few minutes & lots of questioning to determine that we had already paid, but no food made. The 3 tacos were tiny & very greasy. The burrito was OK, but small. The best part of this restaurant was the unlimited toppings & sauces. I would not recommend nor go back.

Last night my partner & I had El Delicioso for the second time. We had held off on ordering from them again because it is really expensive for tacos here, but we thought we would treat ourselves since it was great the first time we got them. They also gave us an abundance of amazing sauces. Made the $60 meal for two a little bit more worth it. After last night, we will NOT be ordering from El Delicioso again. When I brought our taco order home, my partner & I were really disappointed with the amount of food they gave us. My partner had the El Pastor tacos & there was barely any meat in each taco. Also, last time they doubled up on the tortillas for him. This time they did not. I got the Camarón (shrimp) tacos & the batter was super soggy & the shrimp were tiny. However, I can forgive the size of the shrimp partially since I'm not aware of the details for their shrimp delivery. First time I had the Camarón tacos they were big, juicy & had an excellent crisp to the batter. I was hoping for $21 I would get that again. Not the case. I also requested no mayo, which they did not follow. Barely any lettuce & purple cabbage too in the tacos. For the sauces, we each got two tiny sauce containers of salsa. Last time we got 4 sauces each, three of them being big containers of salsa which was amazing! Not sure why they changed this. For their prices, I expect more & I was really disappointed. I've been trying to find a good taco place in Montreal since I grew up with incredible Mexican food. Makes me feel at home, but sadly I haven't found a spot that is affordable/worth the price for the amount of food they give. Overall, I will say their staff is friendly & warm to their customers. Nothing against the people who work at El Delicioso. I assure you they will treat you very well.

Be aware that portions here are huge!!! It's not uncommon to end up ordering too much because you want to try too many different dishes. So far none of the dishes have disappointed though. Would definitely recommend the pastor tacos & campechana torta. Also, the red sauce is properrr #chefkiss

What a pleasant surprise! Stopped by this resto while passing by & it blew me away with the flavours. I started with a guacamole & it was delicious: aromatic herbs, sweet onions, & lots of buttery avocados. Tried the tortilla soup as well & was rich with ingredients. Then moved on to the pulled porc & beef tacos & the flavours were so satisfying. Well marinated & spiced meats with a generous ratio of meat to taco. The complimentary sauces on the side (in picture) were so much fun to try. I ate all the pieces of lime. I met Louis, the waiter, & he was such a nice guy. Good occasion to practice my Spanish chatting with him too. Bravo to the chefs too. Enjoyed my meal. 5 stars.
