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.
I went in for a quick bite to eat because I was craving Mexican. I was sat quickly because the place was pretty empty, the menu is very limited & I was told I could not modify drinks, no problem. My food took way too long to come out & it was extremely salty (Birria tacos) the staff just stood in the kitchen & laughed & stared instead of checking on my table.
Absolutely delicious tacos! The carnitas were soo fresh & tasty & so was the tortilla soup! It is on the pricier side! Just the two items cost us $31! Apart from that incredible food & atmosphere! Love the music playing, transported me straight to Mexico!
This was THE BEST Mexican food we have ever had. I cannot wait to come back with my friends & family to show them this hidden treasure!! The server we had was such a sweetheart & the decorations of the place was simply wonderful 😊🙌🙌
We had the birria & al pastor tacos. Both were delicious. The ambience is quirky but comfortable. The only negative was the cocktail - got the mango Mezcal & was not impressed by it.
If I could give more than 5 stars I definitely would. Me & my friend decided to stop in for a quick bite to eat & we were blown away by how great the food tasted. If you're ever in the area don't sleep on this place,go eat there!

So, so delicious! Tried it on a whim as I was cycling by & I'm so glad I did! I'll definitely be back! Great atmosphere, deco & music. Very polite & attentive service.
Best Mexican food that we have had in a long time. Last time I had Mexican food that was this good was in New Mexico, in a restaurant where they didn't speak English. If I lived in Montréal, I would come back here regularly!
