Review Summary

La Catrina offers a vibrant dining experience in the Old Port, featuring an array of authentic Mexican dishes and handcrafted cocktails that many visitors find delicious and well-prepared. The tableside guacamole is a frequent highlight, often praised for its freshness, while menu staples such as birria and al pastor tacos are frequently noted for their generous portions and bold flavors. The atmosphere is generally described as lively and fun, particularly on the terrace, with many guests appreciating the welcoming and professional service provided by the staff. While experiences with wait times and noise levels can vary depending on how busy the restaurant is, the majority of visitors feel the overall quality, festive vibe, and attentive care make it a destination worth visiting again.

The atmosphere is very nice even if a little crowded in the terrasse. The table-side made guacamole was absolutely amazing, so simple yet so delicious. The fried chicken & the marinated pork tacos were quite tasty, very nice mix of flavors. It was an overall great experience, would definitely recommend to a friend!

La bouffe est bonne, mais le service n'est pas top

Can be very loud depending on the location of your seating. The waitresses behave like they are doing customers a favor doing their job.

I used to love coming here on the terrasse l'été ! But my most recent experience the food fell short of great. I think it was just average & I didn't leave there being like « now that was a great meal!! ». The fish tacos barely even felt breaded & deep fried? It was weird compared to the previous times I've had them. the guacamole was probably the best part. It honestly doesn't even need to be made at the table. That's probably just to appeal to tourists. Something changed there sadly & I wish I knew what it was. I also miss having a DJ on a Friday night terrasse…. Prob won't go back after last night it felt off :(

Excellent sur tous les plans ! Nourriture savoureuse à partager (ou pas), margaritas rafraîchissantes & service très agréable (merci Ayda :) ). L'ambiance globale vous donne envie de partir au Mexique, & de revenir ensuite à la Catrina

The menu posted online & the one at the restaurant are different, it is much more limited & the food was only okay. The view was nice & that is part of the experience. The waitress was rude, she said I had to get meat on the side with my tacos despite not eating meat instead of just not having it. She also said my food would be gross without it, perhaps reconciling the online menu with the true menu would help everyone know there is only 1 vegetarian option on the menu & 0 vegan ones. Would not recommend unless it is only for overpriced drinks, not the food.

Una buona alternativa per cambiare il menù canadese, locale tranquillo, servizio ottimo , cucina messicana da gustare. Prodotti freschi preparati al momento, salse incluse, buono l'assortimento nel menù. Da segnalare un'ottima sangria. Prezzo nella media. Buono.

This Mexican restaurant is a hidden gem. The tacos were bursting with flavor, the guacamole was fresh, & the service was fast & friendly. Can't wait to come back! Shoutout Quarina
