The first and the best for All You Can Eat Tacos! 🔥🌮
At La Tóxica, we're the originals, the ones who launched this unique experience in Montreal, and we remain the best at offering you unlimited tacos full of authentic flavors.
La Toxica shines with vibrant Mexican flavors, especially birria tacos and al Pastor, with generous portions and refreshing cocktails that pair nicely with a festive, upbeat atmosphere. Guests describe a lively vibe with music that invites dancing and a warm, friendly service that often comes quickly, making it a great spot for groups and celebrations. The ambiance is repeatedly praised for its colorful decor and party energy, though a few reviews note it can feel cafeteria-like or loud at times. Birria tacos and the ramen version are among the highlights, and the drinks, including margaritas and Palomas, are frequently praised for flavor and value. The all you can eat option elicits mixed reactions, and some menu gaps or pricing concerns are mentioned, but the overall experience tends to lean toward enjoyable and authentic Mexican fare with a fun, welcoming scene.
Great experience - highly recommend for groups of friends.
I went for the all-you-can-eat tacos last Tuesday & wasn't disappointed. Honestly, I enjoyed all the flavors available in the rotation. That said, I do think the variety is a bit limited: birria, carnitas, steak, chorizo, plus a vegetarian option if you ask. Everything tasted good, even the birria - although it didn't really resemble any birria I've had before (it felt more like meat in a tomato-based sauce), but still enjoyable.
One thing that seems pretty standard for all-you-can-eat taco spots in Montreal is that you only get the tortilla & the meat - no cheese, guacamole, or sour cream included. Even so, the price is great for what you get. The'spicy' sauces they offer are actually really good, especially the green one.
Nice atmosphere, very Latin vibe. Service was good - I really liked our server, with that warmth & friendliness that only us Latinos seem to have 🙂

The food was good-the birria tacos & the quesadillas were good. However, if you order takeout, be very careful not to forget your food. We stepped out briefly & came back within two minutes to pick it up, but the waitress had already thrown it in the trash. That was very disappointing.
Bonne nourriture mexicaines & belle ambiance. Nous sommes allés un samedi soir avec un groupe d'amis. Le service un peu long au début. Il y avait un groupe de musique les gens dansait. Ambiance festive & chaleureuse. Les tacos Al Pastor & Birria sont excellents.
We were hungry & another nearby taco place was packed. La Toxica quickly sat us, & the vibe seemed good. We ordered birria tacos, chicken tacos e birria ramen. The food came out at the same time as our drinks…very quickly. The beef birria was catastrophically bland. Like unseasoned. Luckily the consommé had a bit of flavor, but these were not good. The birria ramen was okay - basically ramen noodles in consommé with some of the same flavorless beef. Not hugely impressed but it seems like they do good birthday business (there were 6-7 birthday sparklers over the 45 minutes we were there).
I went to the one in Chinatown, not really impressed. Dishes like carnitas nor pozole were available. They said only the one on Jean Talon serve these dishes. Dissatisfied & disappointed. Birria was salty, & is beef birria. On the other hand, tacos were good. Fresh fruit water was delicious. Service is good, friendly & helpful waitress. Good family ambiance. I probably will try the Jean Talon's restaurant. Looking forward to carnitas taste. I hope this will help you.

The food was absolutely delicious. The birria tacos are a must. The Paloma is divine. But it was not busy & the service was so slow & we had to flag the waitress down every single time. Kinda a bummer because the vibe was fun & food & drinks were great. I might give this place a second chance.
Insane that this restaurant doesn't have atleast 4.7-5 stars. I am an avid taco enjoyer in Montreal. I look for the best birria tacos. This place is definitely a top 2 for taste & #1 for value!! Birria tacos are expensive here but haven't found better price to flavour value. Amazing vibes, great ambiance, service is quick, & attentive. Would recommend & obviously will be back (probably once a week)
Their all you can eat promotion is kinda deceptive… you only get 8 tacos which you choose from a list of 5 options that don't include birria (most popular one) so it's not exactly as advertise. Although they were good, the tacos are pretty small & don't come with much filling.

Nous avons bien mangé à un prix raisonnable. Je recommande les tacos birria avec fromage & le burrito al pastor. Le service était un peu lent, mais la serveuse, très sympathique.
The all you can it option is not worth it, they are bite size & very blend. Birria is very small & not worth it to me.
If you want a nice ambiance, it's really well decorated.
Thank you!

Two juicy beef birria tacos loaded with melty cheese, topped with fresh onions & cilantro, all wrapped in golden, pan-fried tortillas. Served with a side of rich, slow-cooked consommé - deeply savory, spiced to perfection, & made for dipping. Every bite is a flavor explosion. 😊
Une expérience 5 étoiles chez La Toxica ! Je suis allé récemment chez La Toxica sur le boulevard Saint-Laurent, & je dois dire que c'était une expérience mémorable du début à la fin. Le service était impeccable : l'équipe est chaleureuse, attentive & rapide. Dès mon arrivée, je me suis senti accueilli & bien pris en charge. Quant à la nourriture, elle était tout simplement délicieuse ! J'ai opté pour les tacos birria au boeuf, accompagnés de leur fameuse trempette. Chaque bouchée était un pur plaisir, avec des saveurs parfaitement équilibrées & une viande tendre qui fondait dans la bouche. La trempette, riche & savoureuse, a vraiment élevé le plat à un autre niveau. L'ambiance du restaurant était aussi un gros plus : une décoration colorée & festive qui m'a transporté ailleurs le temps d'un repas. En résumé, La Toxica offre une expérience exceptionnelle. Si vous cherchez un endroit où la qualité de la nourriture, du service & de l'ambiance se combinent parfaitement, je recommande vivement cet endroit.
The Birria tacos with their consomé are incredible!! Server Betsabe was extremely kind & she helped us choose great drinks & food. New favourite, highly recommended. Gracias!
Réplique parfait de la Toxica sur la rue St-Hubert. Chaque bouchée était divine. J'ai eu de la difficulté à faire le choix entre le Al pastor & le Birria au boeuf pour finir sur la meilleure note. Un peu déçue du ramen birria mais contente de l'avoir essayé. Très peu crowder donc service extrêmement rapide.
