Food tasted okay… had to wait over an hour in an almost empty restaurant. Not worth it.

They made me wait over 45 minutes for mediocre tacos, & the chicken on mine was cold in the centre! I will not come back here

The pollo taco is one to try for sure - the watermelon topping was unique & refreshing. Biking made us thirsty for margaritas & they did not disappoint!

Service is really slow. Food's ok. The pork & chicken tacos were tasty. Table side guac is so-so. They leave out the ingredients on their trolley exposed in the heat. Tipping option was set for % option only when the server gave me the machine.

Chicken shrimp & fish tacos are heavily battered & deep fried.

It can be hard to find excellent Mexican food, & Montreal wouldn't have been my first guess. Yet here it is, excellent dinner, great atmosphere & kind staff.

I ordered the quesabirria tacos which were fantastic. I didn't even use the dip the flavor was so good.

To drink I had the fun Coco Loco, a rum lovers delight. True the pineapple only was carved out 60% of the way down so the'glass' ended up a little shorter than I dreamed of, but it was fun & delicious.
