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.
Wow this was by far the best experience i had with mexican restaurant! The owner & the employees are really welcoming. The food & the ambiance are amazing. If you are looking for an authentic experience this is your spot. Cant wait to go back!
Great authentic Mexican cuisine! The quesadillas were the best I ever had. Homemade guacamole was perfect. & the host was very friendly, answered all of our questions & resembled a Mexican Elvis with his style & charm.
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
First time coming here. Didn't know they didn't take your order at the table. So after sitting outside & waiting a while with nobody greeting us we went in. Wasn't too sure what the process was to place an order. Bar tender is right there when you walk. So while waiting in line I figured I'd order a drink. Didn't realize I couldn't get my drink before getting to the cash to place th order. Would have been nice to drink while waiting. However the drink was absolutely amazing. So was worth the wait. Food was good but Not overly impressed. (& a little on the pricey side) Sauces are on one side of the counter (where people are standing in line to order). Not very convenient. Overall would I go back? For the drink 100% food maybe.

What a pleasant discovery! Thanks to Google Maps I stumbled upon this place. Located in a plaza on St Jean, away from the street. Small store front, easy to miss. That being said, there is a steady stream of people going in. People know about this place. The vegetarian quesadillas are friggen delicious. I'm already thinking of going back. The cheese in the quesadilla is crispy on the edges. The vegetable filling is delicious. The service was lovely & friendly. You do have to wait around to take your tray. The waiting are is where the majority of the dining area is. So the lineup to order, the place to wait for food & the indoor place to eat are in the same small area. The decor is very charming. Plenty to look at while you wait. Nice & functional terrace. Lots of parking. My quesadillas were 18$ something. Worth it!
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!
A mi parecer son los mejores de montreal los recomiendo mucho sus quesabirrias siempre son las mejores que eh comida por aca gracias por su excelente servicio y comida rica
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
