About

Mr. Azteca specializes in the preparation of authentic Mexican street food, emphasizing the bold flavors and traditional techniques found in regional taquerias. The menu highlights a variety of corn tortilla tacos featuring slow-cooked proteins and vibrant, house-made salsas that balance heat with acidity. Vegetarian options utilize fresh produce and plant-based fillings to maintain the integrity of classic flavor profiles without relying on meat. The establishment prioritizes quick, accessible preparation methods that capture the essence of market-style cooking. Every ingredient, from the charred vegetables to the crisp radish garnishes, reflects a focus on fundamental culinary quality. This approach ensures that each dish provides a direct, unadorned experience of core Mexican staples served in a functional setting designed for efficiency and flavor intensity.

The atmosphere is generally described as welcoming, vibrant, and cozy, complemented by a staff that is consistently noted for being friendly, kind, and attentive.

Je ne recommande pas ce restaurant. Le service du buffet du mardi ne dure qu'une heure par personne. De plus, durant cette heure, il n'y a pas vraiment de service. Le temps d'attente est long même si le restaurant est presque vide. De plus, les tacos sont loin d'être authentiques. Genre vraiment loin. C'est très sec & salé. Une chance qu'il y avait un petit peu de sauce. De tout les tacos à volonté, c'est celui au steak qui en vaux la peine: mais attention, seulement trois par personnes. Très décevant. En plus, j'ai manger dans des assiettes de fête en carton. Je me sentais pas dans un restaurant.

Really great authentic Mexican spot with amazing food & a very welcoming atmosphere. The owner was incredibly kind & helped us choose our order with great recommendations. The birria tacos were absolutely delicious, & the hibiscus drink was refreshing & full of flavor. We also got to try some freshly made tortillas, which made the experience even better. They also have unlimited tacos on Tuesdays & Wednesdays, which is definitely worth checking out.

One of my favorite Mexican spots in Montreal, especially in my neighborhood. I've been back so many times & have brought a bunch of friends here, & everyone always ends up loving it.

What I really like is that the menu has way more than just tacos - they have a really big variety of Mexican dishes & everything tastes super fresh & made with care. My personal favorite is the chicken enchiladas with the green/tomatillo sauce. So good every time. The tacos are also amazing, & I'd definitely recommend the birria ramen & quesadillas too.

They also have really good cocktails & desserts, which makes it even better. Definitely one of my go-to spots & I'll for sure keep coming back.

Le rapport prix qualité c'est pas du tout juste. Juste une gordita de chicharron pour 14 dollars c'est pas du tout du porc mais du boeuf & un taco de pastor avec deux tortillas pour 9 dollars qu'il vienne à peine avec viande cest pas juste. Vraiment déçu de cette endroit. Je le recommande pas.
