We were staying locally for a weekend. Found this restaurant on a cold night, we took a take out of vegetarian tacos & a burrito. Would highly recommended this really good Mexican restaurant. Fast service, fresh ingredients, TASTY food!!
On est allés manger chez Tacos Neza cette semaine & on a adoré ! On n'y va pas pour le luxe du décor, mais pour manger un vrai repas typiquement mexicain, & c'est exactement ce qu'on a eu. Les plats sont préparés par le propriétaire, authentiquement mexicain, & ça se goûte dans chaque bouchée.
Service rapide, souriant & familial. La nourriture était fraîche, savoureuse & vraiment plaisante à manger. Une belle découverte sur la rue St-Denis - on va assurément y retourner !

C'est un restaurant modeste dont les propriétaires sont une famille qui travaille super fort ! Si vous aimez encourager les petits entrepreneurs & les business family owned, c'est un endroit à ne pas manquer !
C'est une vraie perle cachée de Montréal. Le service était excellent, cependant ne vous attendez pas à un service digne d'un 5 étoiles Michelin, l'ambiance est plutôt semblable à une visite chez une connaissance ou une tente éloignée.
J'ai été surpris à quel point le repas était délicieux ! J'ai pris les tacos Barbacoa & le boeuf était tendre & goûteux. Par contre, les tacos Pastor de ma conjointe étaient encore mieux !
Tacos Neza has the best Tacos. This Mexican flavour packed savoury comfort food hits the spot especially if you like juicy meats. You could order 20 birria tacos easily, they are to die for 🤤🌮
The portions are generous & everything is delicious from appaetizers to desserts 🍮
I ordered from Uber eats, they came with meat for like 2 tacos even they were 4 tacos. Who puts cucumber on pastor tacos? Who told this people pastor tacos comes with cucumber.
I've order tacos from Uber in other restaurants & they came perfect & they taste amazing.
Pastor tacos 0/10 worst tacos I've tried in Montreal so far.
j'ai un mal expérience ici la bouffe c'est pas délicieuse c'est très cher je paye 57 dollar par 4 tacos sans rien de viande le service c'est déplorable la qualité c'est pas bon la madame m'a donné un horrible service
Decided to visit this place according to the AYCE promotion going on. It was a good discovery for the quality of the tacos but the service can definitely be better.
Our waitress started a timer on her phone as soon as we ordered & set forth conditions such as: We couldn't order our second round until our first round was finished (whereas we were 1 bite away from finishing our plate). Given the preparation time we just wanted to get our order in to be able to try as many variety as we could (isn't that the purpose of the AYCE)...
We ended up stress eating for most of it but did enjoy the flavor of the tacos.
Maybe this kind of promotion is good for visiblity but I do not think they are well equipped to serve the food within an acceptable timeframe with the current staff.
Really nice family owned restaurant. The barbacoa tacos & the aztec soup were incredible. Everything is really tasty & homemade. We had an amazing time, service is excellent too. Strongly recommend!
We came for the 20% off deal we saw online & ordered two birria tacos at $22 each, but the size was okay & they weren't filled with meat like other places like a small portion, where they're usually much more generous & juicy, so for a $56 total plus tip it really wasn't worth it. The birria itself was pretty flavourless & most of the taste came from the sauce they gave us. On top of that, they refused to apply the discount, saying it didn't apply because of guacamole that came with the tacos, even though the app never mentioned any exclusions, which made the experience pretty disappointing overall
Incredible tacos, warm service, & the owners are very kind people. Big selection of tacos, all perfectly balanced & delicious. Must visit this spot in plateau!
I got the birria tacos with the hibiscus juice. The topping, to meat, to bread ratio was perfect. It was also exceptionally tasty & the broth dip was so flavourful. The hibiscus juice wasn't too sweet, it complimented the dish very well. The home made tortilla chips with the guacamole were the cherry on top 10/10. They're very generous with the portion of guacamole as well as with the limes & sauces. I usually have to ask for more but I was left with a bit left!
Restaurant was super clean & well maintained. I had a peek in the back to the kitchen & I could see the chef preparing fresh ingredients. He was also quick to help us find a seat despite being busy prepping food for the day. He was so friendly & I never saw him without a smile on his face!
Will definitely come back when I'm shopping on Saint Denis to try their Al Pastor next. Very reasonably priced too!
I just had the best lamb taco ever 😍
The Al Pastor Nachos is a dish you would want to go back & have again.
They also have a delicious vegetarian option : Mushroom Quesadillas.
The service & kindness of the ownerd & server is out of thid world.
