Overall, reviews portray Tacos Don Rigo as a lively, authentic Mexican taqueria with flavors many call the best in Montreal and the West Island, offering generous portions and good value for the quality. 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. A few reviews mention that seating can be tight and the place can get crowded, which may slow things down, and occasional misses on orders or issues with beverages are noted by a minority of guests. Taken together, Tacos Don Rigo is presented as a must try for an authentic Mexican dining experience, where most patrons leave impressed and plan to return for more bold flavors and hospitable vibes.
Excellent place for REAL Mexican food, no tex mex here, authentic tacos & tortas, I would recommend this place if you really want to experience real Mexican cuisine, very good service & the also sell liquor if you want to pass those tacos with a cold one🍺!!
Vraiment un must try si vous passez par le West Island. Nous avons mangé les tacos & burrito en combo. Telllllllllement bon, goûteux, plein de saveur. Grosse portion. L'endroit a vraiment un bon vibe. Personnel super sympathique. Hâte de revenir.

All I can say is wow! It was are first time trying tacos don rigo!! I am so impressed! Hard to find quality Mexican food. AMAZING! && the peanut sauce wow!
Besr birria tacos EVER I've tried a few different places in montreal & laval & none compare to this its just so flavourful & the portions are big. The restaurant has amazing decor & mango margarita was really good
Notre première visite. Personnel très courtois & gentil. Si vous parlez anglais ou espagnol, pas de soucis. Si vous parlez français, pas de soucis non plus car il y a toujours des employés francophones pour nous aider. La musique & le décor sont super. Par contre, la musique est si forte que c'est difficile de communiquer la commande. Nous avons mangé le combo de tacos au porc grillé (au menu du jour), servis avec des fèves piquantes (léger), de la guacamole (excellente) & deux sortes de salsa. Cela inclut une boisson sucrée en bouteille ou en canette avec une grande variété de saveurs. Nous n'avons pas acheté car nous ne buvons ni jus ni boissons sucrées en général (notre goût personnel). Petite terrasse dehors : agréable. On mange dans le cabaret sur un papier. Ils appellent notre nom quand c'est prêt. Resto sympathique : j'espère qu'il restera ouvert longtemps car je veux y retourner pour goûter à d'autres repas sur le menu!
Best Birria tacos I've ever had. Pairs perfectly with their slushy margaritas. I dream about this place. Hard 10/10. They deserve a Michelin Star. Totally worth going out of your way for.
Authentic flavors, recommend any of the tacos, especially the chorizos. One of the best frozen margaritas I had. Super friendly service, live the decor & even had live music!
Visiting home from the USA & this was the first real good Mexican food in Montreal! Burritos, quesdillas, tacos were delicious. Very friendly service. Spicy salsa was very tasty. Thanks

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!
What an absolute gem! Some of the best Mexican food I've ever had on the island. I had never heard of this place before this past weekend. I had a car full of hungry kids & we just searched "west island restaurants" hoping for a quick bite. We went in with zero expectations. The décor is amazing, with walls full of memorabilia & quirky decorations. The whole place has a comfortable, lived-in, cluttercore sort of vibe & personally I am here for it. It's unpretentious & welcoming right away. The food is outstanding, with a great variety of Mexican staples at very reasonable prices. Our family of four were able to eat our fill of mouthwatering tacos & burritos, made with fresh ingredients, for roughly the same amount I would have spent for drive-thru burgers. If you like Mexican food & enjoy a casual, family-friendly vibe, you need to check this place out ASAP.
Great ambiance, felt authentic, very tasty, I left it up to the gentleman at the cash to decide for me, had a burrito that must've weighed 3lbs & tacos it was great!!! Thank you
Do yourself a favour & come try this place. We discovered it unexpectedly & it was absolutely delicious. If you want some authentic messy Mexican tacos (in the best way possible) you should give this a shot. The decor is a blast & the space is cozy so it's a great vibe when it's busy. Even though there was some confusion with one of our orders they were great & gave us some extra food to make up for it, even when we told them it wasn't a big deal & nothing needed to be done!
