Review Summary

Reviews for El Pacifico describe a warm, cozy Mexican spot where the menu shines on birria, ceviche and a variety of tacos, with birria and fish tacos often highlighted as standouts. The ceviche, including a mango habanero version, is praised for freshness and balance, while the shrimp tacos are flavorful though one note mentions shrimp can be overcooked when crowds are large. Calamari is beloved and pork and ribeye tacos are reliably tasty with generous meat and good seasoning. Service is described as friendly and attentive, though it can be slow during busy periods; the terrace adds to a welcoming atmosphere and the decor is frequently described as charming. Value is repeatedly mentioned, especially during happy hour, with margaritas and other drinks earning praise for being strong and well balanced. Overall, El Pacifico comes across as a top local choice for authentic Mexican dining in the area, a hidden gem for many and a reliable spot to enjoy flavorful, well-prepared dishes and a convivial vibe.

Magnifique & délicieux petit restaurant dans Hochelaga. Je conseille de goûter au ceviche à la mangue & happy hour tous les jours de 5@7!

Super ambiance, très bons plats & cocktails. Avec le happy hour & les spéciaux 3$/taco, on retrouve le plaisir d'une sortie à budget raisonnable!

Service was good. The ceviche had a lot of fish which is good but it was lacking a bit in flavour. Didn't taste like much. The drinks were good & was at a good price especially with happy hour. (10$ for a cocktail). The tacos were good however they were not worth the price tag. 3 small tacos for 15$. I would expect for this size to be around 9$ to 12$ or to at least have a fourth one. You can get 4 tacos for the close to the same price at taco lakalaka. Overall a good experience but I would not return due to the price.
