Excellents tacos (carnitas)! & que dire des tamales? Savoureux! Les proprios sont hyper sympas en plus. Je recommande fortement. Situé en bordure du marché Jean-Talon.

Great little authentic Mexican restaurant with a homely vibe & home-made flavors. Perhaps the best tamales I've tasted in Montreal. Also easy to access as it's tucked away in a corner of Jean Talon Market

This hidden gem doesn't get the credit it deserves---but maybe that's a good thing for those that know about it. Some of the best tacos in the city, the perfect'Mom & Pop' atmosphere

This is a spectacular, little, authentic, family-owned Mexican restaurant bringing flavours of Acapulco to Montreal. I had a burrito & it was so delicious. The service was good too. I was particularly amazed by the frothy, blended horchata. I've never had horchata served like that before, it was as much of a treat as the food. There is limited seating as it's a small restaurant. So worth trying this place if you love Mexican flavours.

J'ai commandé sur une application. Le pozole est arrivé sans totopos & la saveur était très ordinaire. Peu de bouillon qui était fade & beaucoup trop de maïs. Le format est petit contrairement à d'autres restaurants mexicains qui le vendent au même prix. Les quesadillas al pastor ne sont pas bonnes non plus. La viande n'a pas de saveur & c'est très gras. Les sauces sont ordinaires. Dommage. No soy mexicana pero vivi en México y sé reconocer un buen sazón.
