11/10 pour la nourriture (ceviche mango habanero & les tacos de pescado), les boissons (surtout celles à base de mezcal) & l'excellent service de Natalia, qui était une hôte chaleureuse & organisée malgré l'achalandage. C'est notre nouveau spot préféré d'Hochelaga

Bof, les tacos au poisson sont vrm mauvais ne commandez pas ceux là. On dirait que c'est même pas du poisson, c visqueux & sans saveur je pense c des trucs congelés. L'eau de jamaica n'est pas bonne non plus c de l'eau avec du sucre, ca goûte pas la feuille hibiscus. Bref, service ok mais sans plus. Perso l'expérience était vrm mauvaise.

Deuxième fois à el Pacifico. Les tacos birria , c'est juste les meilleurs que j'ai mangé.
La terrasse était pleine, on a décidé d'aller au bar, & on a passé une super soirée grâce à Étoile, super barmaid, ultra sympathique qui a su rendre notre 2e visite meilleure que la première!
Top place pour la nourriture mexicaine!

Definitely some of the smallest tacos I've ever had. I ordered the pastor tacos, & each one had only a tiny piece of pineapple while being much saltier than expected. I also ordered a margarita, but it was filled with so much ice that there was very little actual cocktail. Overall, it was a disappointing experience, especially considering the price.

Le ceviche était frais & goûteux, les tacos aux crevettes était aussi aussi très bons! Il y a plusieurs mocktails disponibles également. La déco était vraiment jolie, la musique pas trop forte - tout pour une agréable soirée! J'ai adoré ma première expérience & j'y retournerai avec plaisir!

I came here with a friend on an evening where the weather was patio perfect so nobody was inside. Although the interior didn't look bad, I didn't experience it much. Service was fine. I like that they offer the option to add queso/cheese, really enhances the tacos in my opinion. Overall solid Mexican food, ranks in among the middle in the long list of Mexican restaurants I've been to in this city.

Le restaurant mexicain préféré de mon partenaire & moi! Toute la carte y est délicieuse !
Nos choix de prédilections sont l'aguachile, les nachos, les tacos birria, & la quesadilla rosarito. Accompagné du michelada, & de la sangria rouge. On sort toujours en roulant !
Conseil: s'asseoir au bar ou en avant, si les tables au fond sont occupées le bruit y est plus assourdissant qu'en avant.
