A small neighborhood restaurant with a warm atmosphere, located in the heart of the Plateau, La Selva is a nice Mexican restaurant and a great restaurant for a quiet evening with friends and/or family. The quality/price ratio is one of the best in town. Come and enjoy the generous portions of excellent shrimp, fish and meat accompanied by rice, salad and beans.
La Selva Restaurant Mexicain delivers authentic Mexican flavors with generous portions, a friendly and attentive service, and a warm cozy vibe that invites return visits. Guests praise tender octopus and ceviche, tacos such as Jefe, carnitas and al pastor, as well as chilaquiles and desserts like chocoflan and tres leches cake. Drinks shine with fresh cocktails and aguas frescas, including horchata and a tamarindo margarita. The menu offers good value and the atmosphere is lively yet intimate, making it a great spot for groups or a quiet night out; reservations are advised because the space is small and in demand.
Tout était délicieux, des entrées aux desserts en passant par les cocktails! Mention spéciale à : Grinda asada, le paloma & le gâteau tres leches. L'ambiance était parfaite & tout le monde était très gentil & serviable. On a même eu droit à des shooters gratuits. On va y retourner ça c'est sûr!

Si vous cherchez un restaurant mexicain de quartier chaleureux qui sert d'EXCELLENTS plats & d'excellentes margarita : réservez tout de suite! Nous étions 20 pour un anniversaire. Les compliments des invité.e.s sur la bouffe & les généreuses portions ont été nombreux! Le propriétaire a même créé une ambiance spéciale au moment de chanter «bonne fête». En groupe ou en tête à tête, ce resto est un coup de coeur! Merci encore pour la belle soirée :)
Exceptional small neighbourhood restaurant. Fresh vibrant dishes. We tried the octopus & it was tender & savory! The fish tacos were fresh & flavourful. The tuna tartare was simple & elegant but masterfully done. We will come back many many times to try every dish on the menu. What a fun discovery!
I have been to La Selva a couple of times, & have had a great experience every time!! Their tacos are delicious (especially the fish tacos), & the service is excellent. Their mojitos are a must have!!

For anyone who needs the real taste of mexican flavors & those who love authentic warm & happy atmosphere this is the place. A jewel in Montreal, the place is tiny but the experience is enormous. Live music with Chelo/Marcelo is the best!!! Can't say enough, you have to experience it yourself. Every single dish was deliscious but my favorite were the fish tacos OMG!!! Will be back! Thank you La Selva Définitivement, ne marque pas goûter la vrai nourriture mexican 💯 🥰
This is the best Mexican food I have ever had!! I have traveled to San Diego & live in the Boston area & I will say that I have never had such tasty Mexican Cuisine like I have at La Selva! We shared a Green Salad, Octopus dish, Carnitas tacos & Chicken Tacos. Everything was flat Ful & fresh!! The staff at the restaurant are extremely nice & always smiling!! I cannot wait to return to Montreal & comeback to this restaurant for more food!! Gracias!!!!
