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.

Nopalitos con carne (Cactus with beef), Pescados Yucatan, Carne Asada, Pechuga con mole, Cazuela Mexicana (Seafood platter)

The service was nice & accommodating, the atmosphere was very much a Mexican restaurant appeal, the spacing unfortunately was a little tight for our grouping, the pricing is what you'd expect for a restaurant post covid & the food was on the higher end, but had some dishes that could be more reasonably priced for the taste, all in all, if you want to try a new Mexican style restaurant worth the try & judge if you want to come back again.View more

Petit restaurant mexicain familial face au canal Lachine & au fleuve St-Laurent. Il faut réserver car c'est toujours plein! Les soupes sont incroyables, de même que les cocktails ( pina colada & daiquiri aux fraises) & l'assiette principale! Nous avons mangé des côtelettes d'agneau, avec légumes en accompagnements, riz & haricots noirs. Prix raisonnables. Ce n'est pas notre première fois. On habitent à vaudreuil, juste pour dire que ça vaut le déplacement!😊❤️View more

Ordered guacamole as an appetizer to share with pico de gallo on the side (they will bring you more chips if you run out!), it was fresh & delicious! Had the tacos as the main dish, was very good! Authentic Mexican cuisine, extremely friendly staff & they often checked on us to see how we were liking things. 10/10View more

The carne asada here is no mere dish; it's a celebration of char, spice, & a symphony of savory notes. While not reaching the pinnacle of culinary epiphany, it's a damn good journey into the heart of grilled excellence.View more

Nice atmosphere & the food was good . Fajitas was delicious & the Margarita was well done . I had a reservation & even if I showed up on time I had to wait at the door for about 20 minutes. That should be improved.View more

Honestly the best Mexican food (& I don't usually like to eat it!!). I also love a good frozen margarita & they make it so well. The place is small, a bit cramped but once you're enjoying your meal & time with friends you hardly notice!View more
