Absolutely loved this spot! The tacos & homemade Mexican dishes were bursting with flavor , super fresh & authentic. The drinks? Amazing. You can really tell they put care into every detail. The owner is so cool & welcoming, & the waitress Marino gave us incredible service , super kind & attentive. You can feel the good vibes as soon as you walk in. Can't wait to go back!
I go out regularly with different friends from different groups to explore Montreal's restaurant scene, & this Mexican gem in Verdun was a real treat. The flavors were bold & authentic, & the overall ambiance had a relaxed, welcoming vibe.
The service was exceptional-attentive without being overbearing-& they were very accommodating to my party. While their selection of tequilas & mezcals isn't the largest I've seen, what they do have is well-chosen & definitely worth a try.
All in all, a great spot I'd be happy to return to. Kudos to the team for delivering a great night out!

Flavorful, delicious, authentic mexican restaurant!
The ingredients are fresh, & the preparation of the dishes are just perfectly authentic. The taste of the barbacoa tacos is really similar to the one in Mexico.
The drinks are really good & taste amazingly. Plus, the desserts are delicious.
Definitely recommended!
My only comment is that the waiters were rushing us out.
Amazing authentic Mexican restaurant in Verdun! Both drinks & the food were amazing. We were happily impressed by the ceviche, & their tacos (especially the lamb ones) are to die for. Of course we got margaritas & they did not disappoint!
Great authentic Mexican restaurant in Verdun. Drinks are flavourful, highly recommend trying the Paloma & the Sweet Anita Sour. Service/staff very friendly. Food was yummy, especially the Al Pastor tacos. The guacamole was very tasty as well. Will go back!
I recently had the pleasure of dining at El Sabor de México to celebrate my birthday, & I can confidently say it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment we arrived, the ambiance was warm & inviting, even having English menus, setting the tone for a fantastic evening! We started with the chef's special, which consisted of perfectly crispy mini chicken taquitos. They were a delightful introduction to the meal, offering a blend of textures & bold flavors. Next, we savored their citrus-fresh ceviche, which was light, zesty, & bursting with freshness-a true testament to the kitchen's mastery of balance. For the main course, we decided to share a variety of their entrees, & while everything was outstanding, the Tacos de Birria were hands-down my favorite! The tender meat, flavorful consommé, & perfectly spiced toppings were a match made in culinary heaven. To complement the feast, we enjoyed their mojitos, which were some of the freshest I've ever had. Overall, the food was vibrant, authentic, & full of personality. Whether it's for a special occasion or simply to indulge in incredible Mexican cuisine, El Sabor de México is a must-visit. I can't wait to return!

The ambiance is good, cozy place & alot of noise like a true mexican place. The drinks are dumb expensive (14$ each for little quantity) & the portions are small. To each their own but it is authentic mexican food.
Great cocktails & authentic yummy food. We had a lot of Mexicans in our group & they were all very excited about the excellent cooking. Very fun atmosphere & music!
Great little restaurant! Amazing food, great service & a pleasant atmosphere. Their tacos are delicious & authentic. It's great for both small or large gatherings. I would definitely recommend!
A fantastic, & authentic, Mexican restaurant. Service was excellent, food was interesting, & atmosphere was good. Unlike most Mexican restaurants in Montreal, this place isn't filled to the brim with sombreros & Day of the Dead kitsch. It's just a nice restaurant.
Excellent! The food was very authentic Mexican. Wait staff was superb. & Rafael has assured me that this is the place for me to perfect my Spanish. Absolutely recommend El Sabor de Mexico!
