Review Summary

Delivery orders from Habanero et Aji arrive hot and well packaged, with flavors that stay vibrant. Standout dishes include quesabirrias with a crisp tortilla, tender meat, and rich consommé, and Enchiladas Verdes that are refreshing and generously portioned. Birria tacos are repeatedly praised as some of the best, with tacos al pastor and other varieties also highlighted for bold, juicy fillings; the sopa de birria is tasty, though portions can be small for the price. Warm, friendly service and reliable timing are frequently noted. Montreal diners often rank it among the best taco spots in the city and a top choice in NDG, reflecting improvements over time and a commitment to authentic Mexican fare. Occasional chatter about temporary closures appears, with hopes for summer reopenings, but the overall sentiment centers on quality, care, and value.

We ordered through UberEats & Habanero & Aji absolutely nailed it. Mexican food can sometimes lose its spark during delivery, but everything arrived hot, well-packaged, & incredibly tasty.
The Standouts:
• 3 Quesabirrias: These were the star of the show. The tortillas had that perfect slight crunch, the meat was tender & deeply seasoned, & the dipping consommé was rich & flavorful. Total comfort food.
• Enchiladas Verdes: Refreshing & zesty! The salsa verde had just the right amount of tang & kick, & the portions were very generous.
If you're looking for authentic flavors that actually travel well, this is the spot. We will definitely be ordering again!

I ordered the Sopa de Birria, which is very tasty. My only complaint is that the portion was too small for the price.

Greatly improved since they took over after Taco Tijuana closed a few years ago.
First time I went, I was not very impressed with the tacos or quesabirria, & avoided going back for a long time.
I recently had a craving for enchiladas & decided to give them another shot, & I am thrilled to report that the food has significantly improved. Meat is tasty & much juicier, the enfrijoladas & enchiladas are so delicious that I ordered one for lunch & went back for the other for supper! So fresh!
Keep it up guys 🌮

3 years ago I made a review of this place when they first opened. It was not good at the time. However I decided to try them out again because they are still in business which means certain things had to change. & let me say things did change! SHIT IS GOOD. It's juicy, delicious & tasty. I had the beef enfrijoladas & the chorizo enchiladas. I loved them both so much. The al pastor has significantly improved as well. I'm a big fan now. Thank you for improving, I finally have access to good Mexican food in NDG.

So tasty. So spicy. Incredible. Though I miss Taco Tijuana, this place is a worthy successor. One of the best taco places in Montreal, tastes authentic.

Edit: Already temporarily closed? come on man... Why is every mexican restaurant in this building closing. There must be a curse.
