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.
Went today with my friend after studying at a nearby café & was served by the most wonderful waitress - Luna. Such a sweet person who radiates a wonderful energy. Made our experience x10 better because of her. The food was really good & the atmosphere felt like I was in Mexico. The music was perfect as we could hear each other talk, unlike in other restaurants. Would definitely come back again as it was worth eating at a place with a welcoming staff :) A Montreal gem that's for sure!
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.
Excellent tacos! We loved the food & we were well received, we had a great time, & it's not expensive. We tried the guacamole, very fresh, with chips. Also the margaritas are to die for! Don't miss it.
tres bon restaurant Mexicains ses la première fois que je suis aller la bas & a ma surprise tout était très bon je conseille vivement cette place une vrai pépite à découvrir pour les amateurs de bonne bouffe Mexicains
The tacos here are truly authentic, with rich, vibrant flavors. The guacamole is next level & a must-try. The staff is also friendly & welcoming, making the dining experience enjoyable.

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.
Tacos Frida is my go-to spot in the city for amazing tacos. A stroll down the canal to the restaurant makes for a perfect day, & the experience is always worth it. I never miss out on their Birria tacos & the great drinks they offer. Highly recommended for anyone craving delicious, authentic tacos.

Un véritable bijou à Montréal! Chez Tacos Frida, j'ai été impressionnée par la qualité des plats & l'authenticité des saveurs. Le service était rapide & amical, ce qui a rendu l'expérience encore plus agréable. Les tacos sont incroyables, chaque bouchée est un voyage au Mexique. Mention spéciale pour les tacos au carnitas & le guacamole, absolument délicieux. Les margaritas étaient également excellentes, parfaites pour accompagner le repas. Un endroit que je recommande vivement à tous les amateurs de cuisine mexicaine! Endroit un peu bruyant aussi, donc soyez avertis!
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?)
C'est un 3.5/5 La nourriture était bonne & fraîche mais j'ai déjà mangé à des meilleurs endroits. Le pulled pork était frais & avait la bonne cuisson mais il n'était pas assez relevé. Le service était excellent. Les serveurs sont à l'écoute & sont efficaces. Le gros problème pour moi est que c'est un restaurant très bruyant. C'est difficile d'entendre les conversations des personnes à 30 cm de soi. La décoration est très jolie! Le restaurant a une belle ambiance.
