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.
Absolutely the best experience in service , warmth & the best authentic Mexican food by far !!! Thank you Don Rigo for your continued hospitality ! Try the Don Rigo specialty drink ( but don't drive afterwards 😂)
Pudiera decir que soy una cliente frecuente de este restaurante. Si alguien me pregunta'¿qué restaurante de comida mexicana recomiendas?' Siempre recomiendo este, desde el sabor y el ambiente es una pequena parte de México. La comida es muy rica y la atención 10/10
The best place for food,service & atmosphere! We ordered in person & left but later found out an item was missing (new employee forgot it but it happens) so I called them & the man (I'm guessing is the owner or manager) immediately made the moment right. I put my boyfriend on this place & it is his absolute favorite place to eat! He even joked about getting the name'Tacos don Rigo' tattooed for a reward of free birrias tacos for life 😂. Anyways, they never ever disappoint & will be a long time customer 🥰
Honestly, the best tacos in the West Island! This place is a solid 10/10. The food is always super tasty, the portions are huge for the price, & the vibe inside is really welcoming. Service is spot-on too, everyone is friendly & attentive.
The only tiny downside? The parking lot was full, so my wife & I had to park across the street. But honestly, that short walk was totally worth it for the amazing food waiting inside!
We were welcomed warmly by the owner, who graciously explained some items on the menu. The food was incredible, fresh. You can really tell that it is a labour of love. Would definitely recommend to anyone.

A GREAT spot for Mexican food- the Al Pastor Tacos / Quesadilla & Quesadilla Pollo were all absolutely amazing. Service was quick, all portion sizes were perfect, & the food was delicious!
Tacos are ok not the best but not bad either & they were well packed!
But the 7.49 charge for beans & rice (+soft drink) was really not worth it the beans were really basic & the rice was bad (not cooked enough & not properly seasoned we both didn't eat it) the pico de gallo rotation needs to be even smaller because the cup I got went bad.
The horchata was HORRIBLE, clearly the powdered one & the strawberry flavor made it even worst.. it taste like medicine. That horrendous thing deserves -1/10😖😂
It's a ok place if you're in the area but I won't drive 30min to get there
absolutely amazing food & ambiance!
went here for my birthday, the owner came out & took care of us, super thoughtful & kind!
10/10 would recommend & go back!

I really enjoy Tacos Don Rigos. The staff is effective & amicable. The options are plenty & delicious. The only negative I'd have is with the space itself for it gets crowded fast therefore I'd suggest takeout but if you don't mind the intimacy the space creates it's a great time there always. Great selection of tequila also!
Tacos are really good & fresh however service could be a little faster. Always a line up & very slow to get your order. Good to see mom & pop shop thriving tho.

Restaurant bien dans l'ensemble. L'ambiance & la décoration amène de la diversité au quartier. La nourriture )Burrito au chorizo) était bonne sans être exceptionnelle. J'aurais un peu plus de nachos comme à côté dans le combo.
Mini Mexican vacation! Great food. Busy friendly staff. Outdoor & indoor seating. Mexican sodas! Such decorations. Fun, tasty & good prices. Real saddle seats outside. Great for photos.
