Tacos Jefe, Gobernador, Gringa Carnita, Pulpo A La Plancha, Tartare De Atun 🌮🌮🌮
I think my fiance & I have found our new favourite Mexican restaurant in MTL. We are always on the hunt for good authentic Mexican food & this place really hit the spot. Our recent favourite has gone a little downhill for us as of late so we were so happy to stumble onto this place @laselvamtl
We really couldn't decide on just one thing, we rarely do, so we had to get a bunch of stuff! We got the octopus & the tuna tartare dish to start. Honestly so plesently surprised I didn't think tbh the octopus would be so tender & flavorful as it was. I know Mexican cuisine from what I've seen doesn't feature octopus so often but it was cooked as well as some of the best I've ever had. We saw like every table around us order it so we knew it was a must. Same with the tuna, light, fresh & full of complexity.I didn't expect to have in a Tartare with raspberries!
For me the star of the show was the Taco Jefe. It comes with four corn tortillas that really lend to the authenticity of Mexican Cuisine. Thinly cut ribeye with homemade chorizo an absolute must & then you get the added freshness from the grilled onions & Cactus all tied together with some cheese. Really a 10 out of 10 dish. Super impactful, bold, & extremely good portion very Hardy Taco in itself!
My fiance, her favourite was the'mini' quesadillas, the Gobernador. It was very different from a traditional taco or even quesadilla that I've had it came in a blue style tortilla with shrimp & cheese which I thought would be odd but actually really goes together very well along with some grilled vegetables Chipotle mayo & some guacamole & pico de gallo to tie it all together. I would also opt to ask for their two homemade hot sauces very spicy both of them even for someone who likes spicy but also very flavor forward!
Last but not least we have the Gringa carnita which is layers of pulled pork with cheese, vegetables, guacamole & other goodies packed in between two flour tortillas. Toasted on both sides so they get nice & crispy & the cheese melts evenly throughout!

Absolutely loved the food at this restaurant!
Everything we tried was beyond delicious - the chilaquiles & molletes are my absolute favorites, & don't even get me started on the Tres Leches Cake… pure perfection! 🍰✨
Great taste, great prices, super clean space, & friendly service. Definitely a Mexican restaurant worth visiting & enjoying. 🇲🇽🌮

Simply spectacular, a brunch like no other; comparable only to a real traditional Mexican eatery, full of flavors, colors, & a portion that only a true Latino chef knows how to offer. It has become a weekend tradition. The best Mexican restaurant in Montreal.

J'adore cet endroit! La nourriture est délicieuse & le staff est vraiment chaleureux. Je recommande à 1000%

It's important to note that you need to reserve in advance, as the place is very small.
The pulpo a la plancha was amazing! It was perfectly cooked & seasoned, the vegetables were a nice addition. I wouldn't get the Mexican plate again though. The carnitas tacos were good, though they needed the additional sauces. The special beef tacos were okay, a bit strange that you dipped the beef tacos in beef juice.
Overall nice spot & atmosphere.
2nd time going :
This time we got the octopus again because it was so good the first time & it did not disappoint! The chicken tacos were good though I think the rice isn't necessary & should be replaced with beans. The steak eye quesadillas were very tasty & cheesy.

Everything was great: food, service, & atmosphere. Would go back for sure if it were in my hometown.
Eva
Excellent, authentic Mexican food. Great assortment of tequila. Quesadillas are to die for. Amazing typical desserts.
Valentin
Très déçu.
On a pris à emporter. Le burrito n'avait pas beaucoup de goût & on nous à littéralement mis 10 frites dans la boîte. A ce prix, on s'attend à beaucoup mieux.
Le rapport qualité/ prix n'est pas convenable.
