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.

Les propriétaires sont gentils & bon service! Savoureux, goût authentique! Tacos de poissons, chorizo & Pastor, tous succulents! La sopa de tortilla ! Je recommande le jus d'hibiscus, bien équilibré & frais! Je reviendrai c'est certain!

La nourriture est moyenne. Il y'a un goût dérangeant dans le riz. Je ne comprends pas les gens qui disent que ce n'est pas cher. 22$ pour un plat tacos avec juste un peu de viande & 4$ le coca cola c'est vraiment très cher pour un ptit restaurant de rue.
