Great Mexican food! Tried the tacos Al pastor. Great. If you arrive near 12, they stop serving until 12 to get things ready for lunch

A very pretty decor Mexican food restaurant located in the centre of old Montreal. You can see the crowds & tourists if you choose to sit outside. Otherwise inside is very chic & uniquely decorated with large mirrors & unique wallpapers.

We visited on a Thursday evening around 6:30 & were lucky to be accommodated without a reservation as we were a small group however, definitely recommend a reservation at this place to be safe.

Food was good & came out to us fairly quickly.
We got the vegetarian tacos along with guacamole & chips. We also got the corn on cob. The food was fresh & delicious.

The service can be slightly improved. Our server was busy & not really able to check in on us. But nevertheless, we were able to locate her.

However, music was loud, making it very challenging for conversations. It doesn't help if you sit indoors near their station where they constantly grab plates & cutlery thus creating loud noises.

Overall, it's good food & vibes. Recommended.

An up vibe Mexican restaurant with an extra sprinkle of World Cup fans mostly commiserating post game. Service was slow but in general a good experience. The menu was surprisingly short for a Mexican restaurant. I think the tequila list was twice as long.
The food was fresh & pretty tasty.

I would rate this place 3 stars. The restaurant is beautiful, clean, & has very nice decor. The concept leans more toward gourmet Mexican cuisine, which gives it a more'fancy' feel.

However, I wouldn't consider it one of the best Mexican restaurants in Montreal, as it lacks that authentic, traditional flavor. That said, the service was good & overall it's a pleasant place to visit.

Fantastic Mexican restaurant serving latin street food at its best! The tacos were out of this world & the staff was amazingly welcoming! The avocado dip was very fresh & tasty, the tacos melt in your mouth with the perfect balance of flavors. We ordered the Al Pastor Tacos & the Shrimp tacos- highly recommended!
