Their chips & salsa/guacamole are perfect after a day of skiing. We love their chicken tacos & they havevdrink specials daily. The only shame is that they aren't busier because you need to walk around the corner to find them. Service has always been a pleasure. We have been there at least 10 times.
We had a really disappointing dinner, which was a surprise considering they feel justified to take credit card deposits for reservations. Food was horrible. Nachos were a plate of strange, deep-fried chips that didn't taste at all like a tortilla chip, but okay. The only toppings were cheese, a handful of black beans, & a handful of pickled jalapenos. They were cold, & the cheese wasn't melted, which was obvious because it looked like shredded cheese straight from the bag. A small side of salsa was provided, & we asked for sour cream, which they charged us for! Chicken fajitas were underwhelming - lacking flavor & heat. Kids got quesadillas, which we added chicken to for an up charge which was expected. $15 for the quesadilla, $6 for the chicken, & $4 for sides of salsa & sour cream. So our kids got $25 quesadillas which they barely touched. We also ordered fish tacos: came with fish, iceberg lettuce, & chopped cucumbers on flour tortillas. That's it. Spicy margaritas were not spicy.
Service was fine until we mentioned the nachos & the fact they charged for sour cream. Presented our surprise as feedback for the restaurant, not an indictment on the server, yet she became defensive instantly & replied with multiple variations of'I just work here, I don't make the decisions.'
The prices were absurd for the quality of food. Felt like they weren't even trying. Doubt this place will be around next year.
Appetizers are good, vibe is nice, too a bit to get severed but the worst was the birria. Super bland & flavourless get chicken or beef instead.
THIS SHIT WAS SO GOOD!!!! i got the chicken taco with fries & a drink & i left nothing else on my plate. the girls were soooo nice & the atmosphere was pleasant & clean as heckkkkk! 10/10 would recommend im coming again! (i rhymed😇) ps keep playing bad bunnyyyyy :)
Poco Loco? More like Poco Lame-o. We were pumped to get our Mexican fix during our ski trip to Tremblant, but it ended up being a major'meh' moment. Lily, our waitress, was an absolute sweetheart - she was the real MVP here. But the food? Not so much.
We kicked things off with chips, salsa, & guac, & honestly, it felt like we were snacking on grocery store Tostitos. Like, no one told us we signed up for a Mexican food'imitation kit.' Major letdown. I ordered the birria tacos, which were... fine. Just fine. I've had better tacos from a food cart, honestly. My husband went for the chicharrón dish, & it was solid, but let's be real, it's hard to mess up fried pork.
Now, here's the kicker: my four-year-old ordered chicken with rice & beans, & it was so spicy that he nearly set his mouth on fire. The rice wasn't even Mexican rice. & the beans? Not even refried or charro. When we asked for the rice to be made less spicy & without veggies, the reply was,'It's already mixed in.' So, I guess that's a no-go.
For the price, I'd rather grab a taco from a food cart in a parking lot. Maybe next time, I'll just stick to après-ski poutine & forget this Mexican food experiment in the middle of the mountains.
Delicious food! Thanks Joseph, best chicken tacos I've ever had. Service was great. Will definitely come back next time I'm in Mont Tremblant.
I wish we had found this place sooner! We would have come back countless times. We had the bowl of chili & chicken tacos. You can tell everything is made in house, with love & fresh. Even the spices taste freshly ground in house. Service was fast & friendly. & it's just a block away from the base of the mountain!
Absolutely amazing service, incredible tacos (try the chicken - you won't be disappointed!) & seriously the best margarita you will ever have!! 100% will be going back again & will be recommending to friends.
