Diners describe Tacos Tin Tan as a lively spot with authentic Mexican flavors, standout birria tacos and other favorites like fish and al pastor, and a menu that shines especially for brunch and bold drinks. The vibes are warm and colorful with friendly staff most of the time, and many customers praise fresh guacamole, good mezcals, and creative twists on classics. However, some visits have fallen short with slow or uneven service, delays in taking orders, and in a few cases small portions or bland elements for the price. Several tasters note that portions can feel tight for the cost, and a few cases mention changes to recipes that affected the overall experience. Overall for taco lovers the place remains a major draw with consistently strong flavors and a welcoming atmosphere, though expectations around portion size and service quality can vary by visit.
These are the best birria tacos in Montreal for sure, I haven't had any even close to as good as the ones served here. I would highly recommend to go & try them atleast once in your life.
Greatttt birria tacos!! Some of the best in Montreal. Also just amazing vibes & super fun decor inside.
A highlight was weirdly their drip coffee. They put cinnamon in there I think? & it's delicious !!!
I was greated with a smile & some typical latin american music. Place is clean, colorful with funny & tasteful decorations everywhere. I ordered a guac to start & it was perfect! Then 3 gorgeous birria tacos showed up with a cup of jus... Maybe I got lucky but it was some of the best I had in years! Will definitely go back... Muchas gracias!
Amazing tacos, especially the birria! We drive 90 minutes into Montreal for them. We've been back four times. Margaritas are really good too, be sure to specify frozen or on the rocks. Seems like the same friendly staff every time. Can't wait to go back.

Pros: Great service, cute decorations & atmosphere.
Cons: the food was bland & lacked flavour. The consomé for the Birria Tacos was questionable, it seemed more of a beef broth… The Al Pastor meat was dry.
My first time at Tacos Tin Tin! I ordered the birria tacos (with no onions). My order did come with onions which was likely a mistake. With tax & tip, I spent about $25 on my takeout order. The consume was very good (8.5/10). The tacos were okay - nothing special (6.7/10). The service was great! Staff were very welcoming once I walked in & offered me a seat & water as I awaited my order.
The atmosphere was great - I would make another visit & try another menu item during my next visit.
Nourriture & service exceptionnels. Nous avons commandé le Gobernador & le Birria, ainsi que l'entrée de guacamole & deux aguas frescas (horchata & mango). Les tacos étaient savoureux, juteux, & délicieux. Nous y retournerons sûrement!
N.B. On nous a demandé si on voulait du fromage avec les Birria, mais on nous a pas prévenus que c'était $3 d'extra.
By far, one of the BEST taco places in Montreal. La sopa de tortilla is so creamy & the birria tacos were excellent. Finish it off with horchata & a slice of the pastel de tres leches. Chef's kiss. Will be coming back!

If you are a taco lover, you have to come here! Easily one of my favourite taco restaurants in Montreal! Great taqueria atmosphere & excellent service! They have a great selection of authentic tacos! The birria tacos are a must try, simply delicious! 🌮
Mon repas était savoureuse, ça goûte bien la Birria, les tacos au poulet sont assez ordinaire, mais... le gros bémol c'est la petite portion par rapport au prix, malheureusement nous ne reviendrons pas .
This place totally exceeded my expectations! The birria dishes are on another level juicy, flavorful, & super satisfying. I also loved the creative twist on classic Mexican brunch. Everything looked & tasted amazing. The staff made us feel really welcome & took the time to explain the menu. Cozy atmosphere, great music, & delicious food
Une super découverte pour le brunch ! Le menu est original & savoureux - les chilaquiles verdes & le birria ramen sont incroyables. On sent que tout est fait maison avec soin. Le service était rapide & très chaleureux. Un endroit parfait pour bien commencer la journée avec de bons plats mexicains. Je reviendrai sans hésiter !
Fui a probar la birria ramen: excelente idea, mala ejecución. El lado de la birria estuvo ok, pero usan ramen instantáneo lo que realmente deja mucho que desear. También probamos los chilaquiles (con birria extra) y esos si estaban bastante buenos, pero la porción era diminuta. No como mucho y fácilmente hubiera podido pedir otra orden. Por último, mismo que apenas era medio día (abren a las 11:30) nos indicaron que ya se había acabado el café. En conclusión: por ramen instantáneo y una porción de chilaquiles que te deja con hambre, no recomiendo ir, sobretodo habiendo tantos otros buenos restaurantes en Montreal.
I must say that as a Mexican in a foreign city, this place surprised me. The chilaquiles (my favorite food in general) were super good. The sauce has the perfect amount of spice & the Birria, makes you feel like home. Totally worth it.
