About us

Mr. Victor Lopez and his wife Elena Garcia welcomes you at El Meson! This authentic Mexican restaurant located just across the Lachine Canal, in an old brick house in Old Lachine welcomes you in a warm and friendly atmosphere. It is already several years that this Mexican gem serves its secret family recipes. They started timidly years ago in Dorval for those who remember, and it is through satisfied customers that this Mexican restaurant has made a name for itself and today El Meson ranks among the best Latin restaurants in Montreal.

Don't be fooled! You are here to enjoy and savor the fine foods from Mexico. So forget about other so called Mexican restaurants that offer the same Americanized dishes over and over again. Here you'll taste real delicious Mexican specialties such as Carne Asada, the Nopalitos con carne (Cactus with beef), and many more... Indulge yourself, it is not every day you can travel to Mexico for so little. Everything is a matter of imagination, let yourself be surprised, there are so many flavors to discover...

To enjoy the sunny weather, El Meson offers two pretty terraces (front and back) where you can relax with the magnificent view of the beautiful Lachine Canal, an experience that your eyes will never forget. During the winter, once you step inside El Meson, you will never want to leave.

The decor & atmosphere is very Mexican making for a delightful dining experience. The staff were friendly & attentive, adding to the overall positive experience. However, the food was a bit of a letdown. The soups were okay but the main dish, unfortunately, was overly salty, which overshadowed any other flavors that might have been present. The mussels were overcooked, making them tough & less enjoyable. Overall a nice experience.View more

Excellent food quality & value. Great experience over all. One recommendation though! Convert the men's & ladies toilets into one. Current condition is not up to standards since current hygiene law permits a single toilet space for both genders.

Rustic resto with a honey vibe. We went on a super hot day & sat on their shaded terrace but could have benefited from the breeze if they didn't have long plexi lined across the terrace rail. Food is a very good portion, we ordered the fajitas which my partner likes a lot. I ordered the carne asada & the steak lacked so much flavour. Everything else on the plate though tasted so good. They are also generous with their cocktail in terms of alcohol put in. They are understaffed yet managed to get the food to us in record time. If it wasn't for the under seasoned steak I would have given 5/5.View more
