The food is described as fresh and flavorful, with standout birria tacos, al pastor, quesadillas, and other traditional fare, and the drinks and homemade hot sauces earning praise. The atmosphere is repeatedly described as vibrant and festive, with colorful décor and a feel of being in Mexico, while the staff are noted as friendly, helpful, and welcoming, and service described as quick when possible.

Absolutely incredible Tacos & Burritos. I used to go to Quesada on St-Jean every week before I found out about this place but I don't anymore, this place is the real deal, I've been going every week now for over 3 months. Authentic mom & pop Mexican food. The ambience is stunning, just look at the pictures. They have a great variety of burrito toppings to chose from, stuff I've never seen in regular chains like cactus & whatnot. Their chorizo is simply incredible. I saw a comment that they don't toast the burrito making it leaks all over the place, & it's true BUT once Marianna offered to have it toasted & it stopped the leaking. So they don't do this systematically, I think you can ask for it. They're a bit expensive but hey, I prefer giving a bit of extra money to this awesome place than to a faceless burrito chain. I highly recommend this Mexican joint.
The birria tacos & the sauce they come with were excellent. I also enjoyed the decor & music, makes you feel you're in a mexican cantina. Service at the counter is very corteus & food comes very quickly. Highly recommended!!
My only regret is that we waited so long before coming here !! The food is so so good. The flavours are deep & complex; there is thought & talent behind it all. I highly recommend the Quesabirria Tacos which come with a jus. 10/10
This is the best Mexican restaurant! It's always crowded, but it makes sense. The owner was super nice, funny & polite! The tacos were super delicious! Strawberry Margarita was so tasty. Highly recommend!
Please come here for your next outing! The food is fantastic & the ambiance is great! The staff is generous & patient with questions. I HIGHLY recommend the birria tacos. Nothing can compare I swear! Their michelada was also quite good.
Went here with my family & we had a great time. The food is delicous & authentic, the atmosphere is very enjoyable (mojito & strawberry margarita 10/10). The owner was AMAZING!! He made sure everything was to our liking & worked his best to ensure we had a pleasant time. He was super kind & caring towards us. Super appreciative of his hard work. Highly recommend!
Absolutely delicious. Had the Cochinita tacos, added some salsa & guacamole & they were absolutely delicious. Service & atmosphere were great. Highly recommend.
