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.
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.
Great little place around the corner from our house. Very cozy mexican resto Staff is exceptional, extremely nice service, & tacos are excellent. Good for kids too!
I recommend the beef tacos & Mexican mule.
This was probably really good years ago but it's fallen off since.. every single item had dry meat making them hard to chew & swallow & even the limes were dry.
I got the all pastor & pollo tacos.
On the bright side, they don't skimp on the meat & they have decent drinks. You won't be leaving this place hungry.
Un endroit agréable pour passer un bon moment seul ou accompagné en dégustant de la cuisine mexicaine. Je suis Mexicain & je peux confirmer que les tacos al pastor sont vraiment délicieux, surtout accompagnés d'une bonne michelada. Les sauces sont aussi très bonnes. Le service est excellent & les serveuses sont très sympathiques. Je recommande cet endroit !
Un restaurant mexicain merveilleux ! La carte est simple & tout est préparé à la commande. Littéralement tous les tacos sont bons, je vous invite à y aller à plusieurs & à les partager. L'ambiance est chaleureuse & atipique avec une déco vraiment original ! Une chose est sur, c'est vraiment bon.

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.
Excellents tacos. Ya une tonne de restos de tacos à Montréal, c'est dur d'en trouver avec du cactus. Le meilleur quessadilla: celui au boeuf effiloché juteux: parfait. Beau décor avec pleins de figurines rétros.
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! 🌮
I go there once a week at least since it's close to where I live & I love the place. The waitress all remember my usual order by now so I don't even need to ask. Highly recommend fro great tacos, my favorite being the carnitas, drink wise I always take a spritz but their spicy margaritas seem really popular & I found it good as well.
