Reviews consistently praise Tacos Frida for authentic Mexican flavors with standout options like pastor, birria, carnitas, and pescado tacos and a memorable pozole. Many diners describe the service as friendly, attentive, and fast when the place is busy, with a cozy, vibrant atmosphere. Several mentions highlight strong drinks and margaritas, including hibiscus and tamarind varieties. Portions and prices vary, with some praising generous value while others note small portions or higher prices for certain dishes. Delivery orders generally travel well, but some guests prefer dining in for the full experience and report occasional order mixups or missing utensils. Gluten free diners should be aware that cross contamination can occur, as the kitchen reportedly does not fully prevent wheat and corn tortillas from sharing surfaces. While the majority call it among the best tacos in Montreal, there are occasional critiques about wait times, inconsistency, and some dishes not meeting expectations. Overall, Tacos Frida is described as a top Montreal Mexican spot with flavorful, well seasoned dishes, friendly staff, and a lively setting.
I had what the waitress suggested & it was fabulous. Beef burria tacos I think it was.
Staff are really laidback & friendly. Overall a great experience.
Another tasty taco spot! We ordered delivery & tried the Al Pastor, beef fajita-style tacos, & the carnitas. The Al Pastor & carnitas were definite winners-super flavourful & juicy. Both the red & green salsas were delicious, & the guacamole was fresh & really well-seasoned. Everything held up great for delivery, but next time, we'll try dining in to get the full experience!

Wildly inconsistent.... inedible this time..Last time we got food from here it was the most amazing fajitas I'd ever eaten the beef was so tender & flavourful. My partners chorizo tacos were delicious. We order the *exact* same thing today, awful. We couldn't even finish our meals. Dry, flavorless. My beef in my fajita was like rubber & tasted like nothing. The peppers were raw. The chorizo one looked so sad & was also flavorless. I don't understand how inconsistent this can be from amazing to inedible. It worrys me from ever coming a third time. 😕
Since traveling to Mexico in Feb 2024, we have been trying to find an authentic style Mexican restaurant in Montreal. We did find this one that fits the bill. The food was fresh & delicious. We started with chips & guacamole. The chips were crunchy & freshly fried, & I would have liked more. The guacamole tasted just like mine, homemade. I did, however, find it quite expensive at $4.50 for 8 chips & 3 tbsps of guac. We then had, for our main meal, I had a beef burrito, & my partner had the carnitas platter. The Beef Asada Burrito was huge. The flour tortilla was filled with lots of grilled beef, lettuce, refried beans, cheese, & a bit of rice. Both red & green salsa were provided to up the spice factor & taste. As for the carnitas plate, it was served with rice, guacamole, black beans & 4 tortillas & carnitas (pulled pork with pico de gallo). It too lacked some spice & heat but was filling for those with big appetites. Reservations are not accepted, so be prepared to wait. We were there Friday at 6:15 & the place was full. We did have a short wait, which wasn't too bad. Except for the fact that it was way too hot inside. It seemed like the AC was out. Even the staff complained. Yes, this is an option for Mexican food. Next time we go, we'll make sure itbis cooler outside.
Amazing food, beef quesadilla blew my mind. Great service. Very homely atmosphere. One of the best places for Mexican food I have ever had in my life outside of Texas.

I was tired & hungry,I wanted Mexican food so badly & my friend told me about this place + it had great reviews...so I walked an extra 30 mins in the heat. I did pass several other Mexican places, but I was set on this one. I walk in, tiny restaurant, simple looking, nothing much, a few spanish speaking customers (good sign). Man...the food was on another level. Wow wow wow. We ordered a variety if dishes, including drinks, every dish was unreal, the drinks were so refreshing. Big highlight was the cactus beef & the ice cold horchata drink Basically transported to another culture instantly through flavours. Glad I walked so long, glad I trusted my friend & the reviews. 9/10 experience (-1 for the interior design, which is cute, but nothing special...but who cares?)
We had the quesadillas shrimps with tacos mushrooms & beef tacos. We LOVED the shrimp quesadilla & the mushrooms tacos. The beef was overcooked for our taste, the waiter was nice enough to offer us a second table so we could sit next to each other. The ambiance was nice but a bit noisy for us. Highly recommend!
I loved the place. Design is so nice. Our tacos were descent. Tinga & Taco du jour that came with a delicious soup were amazing. I prefer Taco du jour with beef. The staff were nice & bilingual.
If you're craving a a nacho plate with tacos, I totally recommend coming to this restaurant. My friend & I shared a nacho plate & Tacos Al Pastor with a jug of Horchata. We did order a bit too much but took the rest in a container. The beef nachos were really good, the tortillas had the real taste of corn & the plate was very generous in beef & guacamole. Also, the tacos did not disappoint, there was a good amount of meat & the mix of sweet/salty with the pineapple was just perfect. If you're hesitating on getting horchata, just do it ! It was such a perfect addition to the meal, it was light, flavorful, we drank it very easily, & it wasn't at all cloying. I would totally come back to try Frida's plates or even the quesadillas which looked quite tempting too.
The food is delicious. We ordered the Chicken fajitas plate with a chorizo entrée. Originally, I had ordered the Beef Fajitas plate but there was a mix up. I was NOT disappointed. The portion was generous & tasted fresh & amazing. Recommend the guacamole (best I have tasted in Montreal) Ambiance was very festive & good service.
We got the cecina (grilled beef oaxaca style) & shrimps tacos, with un pozole y guacamole. Everything was just so tasty & delicious! Super friendly staff too
