La Perle D'Acapulco is widely celebrated as an authentic, family-run hidden gem located near Jean Talon Market, recognized for its cozy atmosphere and homemade flavors. Diners frequently praise the exceptional quality of the tacos, tamales, and unique beverages like horchata, noting that the staff is consistently friendly and helpful.

By goodness if it wasn't delicious. Probably the best Mexican food I've ever had, run by the sweetest staff of all time. Must stop when in Montreal.

Pésima experiencia. En la foto promocional Uber eats se ven enmoladas de buen tamano y bien preparadas, pero lo que recibes es una burla: tortillas micro con poquísimo mole y nadando en grasa. En la foto puse mi dedo como referencia para que vean que no exageró. Publicidad enganosa total. Por cierto el tamal estuvo excelente.

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
