MexiRolls offers a vibrant atmosphere with a fusion concept of tacos and sushi that divides opinions among visitors. While many patrons praise the generous portions, the high energy, the live music, and the exceptional service provided by the staff, others express significant disappointment regarding the authenticity and seasoning of the food. Experiences range from delightful meals featuring creative rolls and tasty birria to complaints about bland ingredients, poor service efficiency during peak hours, and inconsistent quality across the menu. Ultimately, the restaurant serves as a popular social spot for drinks and music, though diners hold conflicting views on whether the culinary execution consistently meets expectations.
We went on a quiet afternoon with about 7 people, our server was awesome & very friendly. We got the strawberry lemonade, regular lemonade, & some Corona. The drinks were excellent & the lemonade was delicious, though it was a bit carbonated if that's not your vibe.
My rating for this restaurant is so low because the food is passionless. Full of the blandest meat imaginable, only veggies were onions & cilantro. The carnitas were dry & had 0 seasoning, the birria tacos that my partner got had cheese, onions & cilantro & the consommé is just clear beef broth also with next to no seasoning.
Mexico would be disappointed in these tacos. I understand maybe toning the spices down for tourists but this is disingenuous & inauthentic. Old El Paso tacos have more spices than these do.
We didn't try the sushi at this place, but I can't say I'm inclined to try it after such a disappointing experience with the mexican half of this restaurant. If a'chef' can't get tacos right I can't imagine the sushi would be any better.
Music is good, no patio but the doors open up to the outside so the whole restaurant feels like a patio. This restaurant has so much potential but the food is incredibly disappointing.
The only good thing was the birria tacos, the service was poor & deficient, sushi have weird flavors & the cocktails are expensive for what they are.
I absolutely won't be back there.

SUMMARY: DO NOT GO TO THIS RESTAURANT - YOU WILL BE MISLED.
This was the worst experience I've ever had in Montreal. This restaurant feels like a scam in every detail.
Let's break it down. When we arrived, I tried to clarify everything about the all-you-can-eat menu - prices & what was included. First red flag: you are required to purchase a drink. So the advertised price of $27 automatically becomes $31 (since the cheapest drink is $4).
Another misleading detail: based on the menu design, it's very difficult to understand that the sushi all-you-can-eat costs $30 & the taco option is $27. It actually looks like it's $30 on one day & $27 on another (which is why I went on Tuesday in the first place).
On top of that, any food left on your plate is charged at what I consider unreasonable rates: $3 per sushi & $8 per taco.
Only a small portion of the menu is actually included - basically tacos from the Mexican section & sushi rolls. This limitation is not clearly explained upfront. As mentioned in other reviews, the service is slow. The food takes a long time to arrive. On the day I went, three taco flavors were unavailable - which made an already limited selection even worse.
The whole system feels very sketchy. There are lots of fine-print rules, & the all-you-can-eat concept seems designed to trap customers.
To be fair, I want to highlight that our server, Brenda, was friendly & polite. Also, the food isn't necessarily bad - just unusual, which might not appeal to everyone. One of the rolls tasted like eggplant (even though that wasn't listed as an ingredient - who knows where that flavor came from).
Overall, it felt like money wasted. It could have been much better spent at a place where the goal isn't to take advantage of customers.
Franchement, le service était exécrable ! Mais ce n'est pas la faute des employés, c'est celle de leur patron ou du responsable du personnel. Je ne pense pas être la seule table à avoir attendu plus de 45 minutes pour être servie ou pour qu'on me demande de payer l'addition ; la nourriture était mauvaise & lourde, & les pauvres serveurs couraient partout pour essayer d'être servis car ils n'arrivaient pas à suivre. Mon copain est arrivé le premier pour commander en m'attendant, & même là, on a dû attendre beaucoup trop longtemps ensemble. J'avais envie de sushis mais aussi de tacos, alors on a commandé les deux & c'était horrible ! Les tacos avaient des tortillas abîmées, pratiquement jetées à cause de la précipitation, & le sushi était une boule de pâte impossible à mâcher ; il y avait environ un centimètre & demi de pâte seulement & le centre était presque inexistant.
Si c'est comme ça un lundi, j'imagine mal ce que c'est le week-end. Vous avez des employés, pas des esclaves ! Trouvez du personnel capable d'assurer un service correct & d'améliorer la qualité de la nourriture. Payer 100 $ ne va pas me ruiner, mais ça m'a fait hésiter à remettre les pieds dans votre restaurant.
