L'Estancia is described as a lively, family run spot in Montreal offering authentic Mexican flavors with generous portions and homemade tortillas. The menu spans birria and pastor tacos, chorizo and gobernador varieties, huaraches, burritos, quesadillas and a brunch lineup, all praised for bold flavors and solid execution. The atmosphere is colorful and welcoming, with a vibe that feels like a mini escape to Mexico and occasional live music. Drinks, especially margaritas and horchata, are frequently highlighted as strong accompaniments to the food. Service is generally friendly and attentive, though some visits note slower pacing or occasional inconsistencies during busy times. Overall, reviewers rate L'Estancia highly as a top Mexican option in Montreal, praising authentic taste, generous portions, and good value while a few dishes or moments of service fall short on occasion. It remains a popular pick for gatherings, brunch, and casual dinners, with many saying they would return to explore more of the menu.

100% found my new go to spot for birria tacos! The drinks & the food were both fantastic & the atmosphere was casual with a fire playlist in my opinion :') I definitely recommend the birria tacos & the mango mojito (made with real mango) the service was good with room for improvement as I think the waiter forgot about us at first but regardless I had a great time here & will be coming back for more!

Très bon. Je recommande le Molcajete Mer & Terre (repas pour deux).

Leur mojito à la mange & celui à la fraise sont aussi très bon.

Absolutely delicious gem in the Plateau. Very affordable prices, tasty food & good portions. We tried the Tacos de birria & the quesadilla gigante con pastor, & added a glass of horchata. The staff is super nice & we were full the entire afternoon. 100% recommended! I will be coming back.
