Review Summary

La Tamalera draws broad praise for fresh, authentic Mexican fare, friendly fast service, and a bright, colorful setting. Favorites include Baja Shrimp Tacos, a fish taco, tortilla soup, churros, pozole, and pink horchata, with a summer Shrimp Empanada also praised. Tamales receive mixed notes, but the rest of the menu remains consistently delicious. No alcohol is served, portions are generally satisfying, and staff are described as helpful and attentive, making the place feel welcoming and worth returning to, with several reviewers calling it a hidden gem in Montreal and one of the best spots for chilaquiles in town.

visited several times over several years, dine-in & take-out. Love the Baja Tacos (shrimp), Tibu (one big fish taco), Pozole stew, pink Horchata, & Brunch Huevos. Summer 2025 special was a Shrimp Empanada, loved it. *No alcohol*

Go to taco spot. Love the shrimp tacos grilled or fried. Guac is delicious. Service is friendly & prompt. My teens enjoy the atmosphere too!

Best Mexican in MTL by far. If you're into authentic that is. Cochinita pibil is delicious, shrimp tacos, yummy. & service is super fast. Been there 10+ times.
