Review Summary

El Pacifico is widely regarded as a hidden gem in the Hochelaga neighborhood, praised for its authentic and delicious Mexican cuisine, particularly the birria tacos and ceviche. Guests frequently highlight the cozy, intimate decor and the quality of the cocktails, especially the margaritas and palomas. While the service is often described as warm, professional, and efficient, some visitors note that it can occasionally be slow during peak hours. The restaurant offers good value for the price, though some diners suggest being mindful of the final bill to ensure advertised specials are correctly applied. Despite the establishment being occasionally noisy, the overall consensus is that it provides a high-quality dining experience with flavorful, fresh ingredients that keep patrons eager to return.

Le Paloma est excellent, je goûte ce cocktail partout & ici c'est un sans faute.
Les tacos al Pastor sont très bons, mais gagneraient à offrir un petit peu plus de bouts d'ananas.
On a demandé des churros sans cannelle (qui vient par défaut malheureusement) & ils nous les ont fait, ce qui a été très apprécié.
Très bon rapport qualité prix & décor sympa. Bruyant mais on s'entendait parler quand même.

This place is incredible. Accept no substitutions, no competitors. The Mango Habanero Ceviche, the Aguachile, the Biria tacos & the Al Pastor were all heavenly. Price is perfect for the amount of work that clearly goes into this food. Guys, don't change anything.
