Chicken over cooked. Fish tacos a bit plain

Je suis allée manger hier pour la première fois à ce restaurant avec deux amies. À première vue, la nourriture semblait bonne & le service était correct, même si la serveuse venait rarement à notre table. Nous avons toutes commandé des tacos : deux au poisson & un au poulet. Malheureusement, nous nous sommes toutes senties mal après le repas, & l'une d'entre nous a vomi toute la nuit. C'était hier soir & j'ai encore l'estomac sensible. Je ne sais pas si c'était dû à la cuisson de la viande ou à la fraîcheur des ingrédients, mais je suis très déçue & je ne reviendrai pas. Faites attention.

Une hôtesse sans sourire, zéro empathie, incapable de nous trouver une table en terrasse, nous installe dans la SAM tellement bruyant qu'on demande la terrasse. En 2 temps 3 mouvements, un gentil serveur ns trouve une table pour 5. le reste de la soirée sans faille.

First time there but definitely returning back for the tacos, we tried the Birria tacos & gotta say it was one of the best braised beef tacos in Montreal, also tried the shrimp tacos & unexpectedly I really liked it the shrimps were cooked perfectly, along with the drinks which were ok, the only down side were the guacamole & chips that didn't meet expectation the chips were really bad & the guacamole was mediocre, & I would say a few outdoor fans would have made life easier in summer.

N.B the service & manager of the place were above & beyond, very welcoming & accommodating which really made an impression one for the things to return back for.

The food is amazing, price aren't ridiculous. The service is A1. Manager gave us a couple things during the rush cause he felt we were waiting a bit too long.

So pleasantly surprised by our experience here. We sat outside with our two little kids & they were very accommodating about ordering the kids food in advance. Kids menu offers three crowd pleasing options. Freshly made guacamole & the chef's platter of tacos were all delicious. We ordered the shrimp tacos as an extra & while the quality & freshness of the shrimp was great, they were really spicy so order with caution. The service was amazing & the entire terrace staff were super attentive.

Service was great, however the food was not that great. I don't recommend the birria tacos, flavour was lacking & there was mostly the fat of the beef. Good atmosphere however I liked the terrace outside during the summer.
