Quesada Burritos & Tacos earns praise for tasty, fresh, and colorful Mexican fare with a build-your-own approach to tacos and burritos plus a selection of sandwiches and salads, and portions are often described as generous while prices stay reasonable, making it a popular fast-casual option near the campus and downtown where midday energy adds to the vibe, though some reviews mention a quiet setting with no music. Reviewers consistently note friendly, attentive service and quick turnaround, with many highlighting a welcoming atmosphere and helpful staff; at the same time a few experiences point to inconsistency, such as meals arriving barely warm, small portions on some orders, or sauce requests not being handled as expected, and there are mentions of occasional miscommunication at certain locations. Vegetarian options are repeatedly praised, and freshness of ingredients, value for the money, and the ability to see orders prepared in front of you are commonly cited positives. Some customers appreciate the casual setting and occasional outdoor seating, while others mention the fast-food pace and a no-beer policy; overall the place is viewed as a solid, dependable option for a quick, satisfying Mexican meal.
Si vous cherchez à faire rimer'fastfood' avec'santé', ne cherchez plus. En plein coeur du campus centre-ville de l'UQAM, le Quesada propose une variété de sandwichs & salades à la mexicaine. Les tacos & burritos sont composés devant vous avec des ingrédients que vous choisissez vous-même, donc vous êtes sûr·e que ce sera bon. Vu l'affluence sur le temps de midi, vous avez aussi la garantie que les produits tournent & soient frais. Pour le service, ça dépend -comme toujours- des différentes personnalités, mais il est généralement agréable & respecte vos demandes à la lettre. Je suis végétarienne, donc je me concentre sur les options végétariennes ; mon favori est le burrito aux haricots frits avec supplément guacamole. Le prix est raisonnable, entre 10 & 14$. Ça fait des années que je viens & je n'ai jamais été déçue. Mon fils, qui est un peu difficile sur la nourriture, adore aussi. & pour ne rien gâcher, le gérant est en outre très sympathique & amical. Sur le temps de midi, beaucoup d'ambiance avec les étudiants de l'UQAM, notamment. En été une petite terrasse avec quelques tables & chaises sur le trottoir pour profiter de la météo & des passants. Je vous le recommande chaudement.
They charged me $1.49 for a sprinkle of shredded cheese. The contents of my burrito that should have been hot, as they were coming directly out of the warming pans, were barely warm, some bites of beans & rice were actually cold. This was a desperate late night food grab. I'd recommend you find another late night option.

I could say all I have in mind, but I'll stick to just recommand to the staff who made my order that if a colleague tells you that'like always you don't setup the oven properly' & you just pretend it doesn't change a thing? Well my roasted veggies were all but roasted. Take care
I recently visited Quesada Burritos & Tacos in Montreal & tried their Tacos with Beef Barbacoa & Chicken Tinga. Both were served in hard taco shells with a variety of fresh toppings, & they were absolutely delicious. The flavors were rich & satisfying, making for a great meal. The staff at Quesada were exceptionally nice & friendly, which added to the overall positive experience. It's a great spot for a tasty, quick bite with a welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommended!
Great food & service overall. The server noticed I was choosing vegan options & recommended their vegan chipotle sauce, which was really good. All the ingredients were good & fresh. One improvement could be the menu presentation. A lot of text on it was very small. They could put less photos & make it more straightforward with bigger text.

I recently visited Quesada at 10 pm & was thoroughly impressed by the experience. Despite the late hour, the service was exceptional. The staff was friendly, efficient, & ensured that my order was perfect. As for the burritos, they were absolutely delicious. The ingredients were fresh, & the flavors were well-balanced. The variety of fillings & toppings allowed me to customize my burrito just the way I like it. Overall, Quesada delivered both in terms of service & taste. It's a great spot for a late-night meal, & I highly recommend it!
