Review Summary

Ta Chido Snack-bar mexicain serves authentic Mexican fare that many reviewers rate highly, with standout tacos and tortas such as the pulled pork torta and the torta pierna and al pastor tacos praised for flavor, freshness, and generous portions. The ambience is described as casual, lively, and eclectic with authentic touches and a small patio that enhance the dining experience. Service is mostly friendly and efficient, though a few guests note occasional delays or lapses like slow seating or missteps with glassware. Drinks and cocktails receive solid appreciation and the overall value and consistency of the food keep bringing guests back, with many calling it one of the best Mexican spots in Montreal. The place is regarded as a must-try casual destination for authentic Mexican flavors, even as some reviews mention occasional service hiccups and not every dish shining equally.

Nous avons pris deux sandwiches tortas & c'était absolument délicieux ! Le poulet effiloché est savoureux & parfaitement assaisonné. Les sandwiches sont frais, goûteux & très bien équilibrés. Même s'ils sont copieux, ils ne sont pas lourds du tout pour l'estomac, ce qui est vraiment appréciable. La sauce aux haricots noirs est savoureuse & agréablement surprenante ; elle apporte une touche crémeuse qui rehausse encore plus le sandwich. Honnêtement, c'est le premier sandwich sur lequel je m'extasie depuis que je suis à Montréal ! Je vous le recommande sans hésiter : tout y est, le goût & les bonnes portions !

Really great atmosphere, hours, service…

The pierna torta is probably the best thing I've ever eaten. I've gotten it loads of times, to make sure. Highly recommend.

La cuisine est faite maison. Je recommande tout particulièrement les tortas, sandwich fait avec un pain réalisé sur place. C'est juste délicieux & copieux !

Je commande souvent de là & ́leurs tortas sont les meilleures sans hésiter. Le pain est fantastique, les tortas sont bien garnies & pleines de saveur. Je vous recommande la cubana.

My friend & I had what might be one of the worst restaurant experiences we've ever had here last night. We're both vegetarian, & were excited about having multiple options for our meal! We decided to each try a vegan chorizo taco & share the tofu al pastor torta. We started with the tacos, which were delicious, but it quickly went downhill from there. I had the suspicion the torta had meat instead of tofu. When I sheepishly brought this up to the server, she said she couldn't tell, but brought it back to the kitchen just in case. After several minutes, (& we were the only two people in the restaurant!) she came back & said they were remaking the dish to be safe. When she brought it back, the new one was obviously tofu- which means we were certainly served meat. I'm a server myself, & would've been horrified at this mistake alone. But mistakes happen, & it's not the end of the world. My problem is that NOT ONCE did the server (or anyone else, for that matter) take accountability for her error or even muster up an apology. I consider this extremely bad service, especially after my friend approached her to express that it was insanely rude for her to have never even said sorry. She then continually lied to my friend, claiming that she apologized & "had no idea" it was meat. It's beyond wild that she simply couldn't own up to an incredibly simple mistake. In the end our bills weren't comped AT ALL. At least the terrible service distracted from the fact that we both ate meat after 8+ years of vegetarianism. (Saturday August 10th, 6 pm).

On a commandé nos sandwiches en marchant vers le resto & tout était prêt à notre arrivée. Le tortas hawaïen était vraiment bon.

Updated review, June 29th 2024 I had a torta today, the Cubana one, 22 dollars, taxes included. It's sad to see how quality is not top notch anymore. The bread was not fresh & the worst is that maybe in their rush to dispatch me they didn't even heat it up properly. I also noticed they put less stuff inside the torta, sad, because the price is quite high for a torta that poorly garnished. Anyway, today was the last time I visited this restaurant. Adieu, Ta Chido. -------------------------------------- So far the best tortas I have tried in Montréal. They make their own bread. Mole tacos were not that good for my taste, they were overloaded with flavour. Service is very good.

Une belle découverte dans Mile end. Les prix sont bons pour les portions, la qualité des aliments est irréprochable. L'accueil & le service impeccable. J'ai prix la soupe azteca & mes amis les tortas! Un vrai délice. La soupe est savoureuse avec un vrai bouillon, & le pain des tortas & frais. J'y retournerai & je le recommande.

Fantastic authentic Mexican food on Park Avenue, with a fun & eclectic decor. We've been coming for years & love their Mole Verde Taco Chido & Cubana torta. Their chillaquiles were tasty & abundant, & they have a variety of addictive tacos to choose from. The guacamole & cactus salad are great appetizers. The owner is a baker, & all breads & desserts are his creations. You must try the Mexican coffee, which is warmed by a touch of cinnamon. They've also got delicious horchata, a great drink on a summer day. This is our favourite Mexican restaurant in Montreal, & despite our many visits, have still not tried all the dishes on their menu. Definitely recommended !

Quite tasty, not American "Mexican". They have tacos, however their specialty is Tortas, made on homemade bread & filled with very tasty food. The atmosphere is "hole in the wall". The service was great, not very crowded.

Great authentic Flavors, Service was ok but they were jam packed during lunch, anyone who has worked in the restauration, will understand. Anyhow the wait was worth the food! Generous portions, If you leave there with a stomach-ache its because the Tortas are HUGE, like they should be.
They recelty updated the menu & it's been a year they expanded to the next door business. They have a new flour tortilla section. Pambazos, alambre, Quesadilla flor de calabaza

It's not your typical Tex-mex, fajitas & burritos joint. It's real mexican food.

Qui aurait cru qu'un sandwich au tofu serait aussi délicieux!!! Vraiment!

Parfait pour un lunch rapide ou un take out pour aller manger dans un parc du Mile-End.

Le service n'est pas toujours super courtois (ie: tu te présente à 11:55 pour & on te demande de revenir à midi pour ta commande de take-out. on te laisse même pas t'assoir pour attendre 5 min. vraiment?).

Mais leur tortas sont tellement bonnes que malgré tout, moi & mon chum devons y aller au moins 1 fois par 2 semaines.

À essayer: Tortas (Tofu al pastor, Aguacate), Tacos (Chorizo con papas, Mole verde)
