“Food is good! We go here often and I love how they’re not shy with the sauce. Staff was friendly and once got offered guac, I said no since there would be extra charge but he gave it to me anyway and he said he won’t charge as he was the owner. It was a good plus!“
“This place is a must go if you're in the area and are looking for the full Mexican restaurant experience, the moment you walk into the restaurant from the often cold shiver of Canadian weather it feels like I just stepped off the plane into Mexico itself, with the music alongside the decor. As for the food, you get an absolute BOMB of a meal that in my opinion is set at an amazing price, my Birria itch has never been scratched so well, and to top it all off. The ordering process to getting my food is astonishingly quick, it surprises me every time and I love every single part of this gem of a place. Please do yourself a favor and experience this place, you will not regret it.“
“Came to try this authentic Mexican food restaurant based in the reviews! Totally worth coming in! The food was tasty, signer in Friday was excellent and the service quick and friendly. We would definitely come back here when we’re in the area!“
“????Price: 6/5Amazing tacos! Highly recommend trying their fish taco, it was one of my favourite. Quesadillas are perfect for cheese fans!Although i went at the end of the day, the churros were a bit old and dry.I would definitely comeback!“
“(Translated by Google) I found my experience correct, but nothing more. I didn't like the margherita, it was very strong and tasted strange. I am usually a fan of this cocktail and I take it in all the restaurants. I haven't finished the cocktail. The food was good.(Original)J’ai trouvé mon expérience correcte, mais sans plus. Je n’ai pas aimé le margherita, il était très fort et goutait étrange. Je suis habituellement une fan de ce cocktail et j’en prend dans tout les restaurants. Je n’ai pas terminé le cocktail. La nourriture était bonne.“
“Went to Barrio 14 craving Mexican food, and was definitely not disappointed! The food was definitely a Wow! Had Barria Tacos while JoAnn had the Baha Tacos, we shared a fry and cake for desert! Special thanks to our server Colton who was 2 for 2 with his suggestion of my main course and desert! Will definitely be back with friends!!“
“Colorful resto interior, festive (even solo dine-in) & authentic Mexican tacos. Best beef birria tacos ive ever had. Best taco restaurant in Montreal hands-down. Menu is delicious, my go to is 2 birria & 2 vegetarian tacos w/ cheese. Super fun & yummy. Highly recommend & will come back again and again. Tuesday & Wednesday AYCE tacos!!! ?“
“The food & drinks here are always delicious and the service is fantastic! We had Sophia as our waitress at our last visit and she was patient, happy to answer any questions we had and was just such a genuine pleasure!We had a great time and by the time we left (Saturday night) the music was pumping! Super fun atmosphere and delicious food!“
“In desperate need to book a restaurant at the last minute, I called El Meson and asked to reserve a table for 8 people on that same day. The lady on the phone was super ? She was very understanding and helpful. I was able to reserve for 8 people last night for my partner's 26th birthday celebration ? Given that we were 8 people, I thought the food will take time to come in, but our plates started coming in very shortly after we ordered our meals... Everyone in our table had nothing but good things to say about the food. The portions were more than enough!!! Our friends said that the Carne Asada was cooked to perfection ?? My other friends enjoyed their Beef and Chicken tacos ? My partner liked his Pollo Barbacoa ? My Chicken Fajita was sizzling when it came to our table that one of my friends even commented and said that he also wishes that his food came in with sound effects ? Also, their secret hot sauce was so good that we wanted to buy a whole bottle of it ? The service was quite fast, our primary waiter, Señor Roberto, was quite patient with all our requests and was kind enough to help us clean the table when one of our friends accidentally poured his water on the table.All in all, we had AN AMAZING experience at El Meson and hoping to come back soon!!! ??I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS RESTAURANT TO ANYONE LOOKING TO TRY AUTHENTIC & DELICIOUS TASTING MEXICAN FOODS ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️Dietary restrictions: 2 of our friends have dietary restrictions. The restaurant has a printed information sheet that tells you which foods they recommend if you have any peanut allergy, which was quite helpful and made our friends' decision making more efficient. That was quite appreciated.“
“Do NOT think twice about ordering food here!Hands down they have the best Mexican rice bowl - my favorite is the beef. I am posting this while eating one, because good food like this needs to be known..I’ve tried many Mexican rice bowls but this one is by far the most delicious I’ve had.Salad is fresh, they do a generous portion of meat serving & the rice & condiments are tasty.. trust me.. it’s worth the visit..“
“What a gem of a place! Lacking in atmosphere but the food more than compensates. Staffed by a single elderly man who both took & prepared our order. His service was pretty satisfactory, but his cooking was great! Menu had a nice variety of dishes spread between Salvadoran & Mexican cuisine. The prices blew me away with how good they were, I ended up ordering 2 pupusas as well as an entire platter. If it wasn't so out of the way for me, I'd come here on the regular & ensure he stays in business.“

“I loved this restaurant! The food was so delicious, the drinks were great, and the people were very friendly. I will be going back for sure. Good place to go for a 5-7 even if it's a little out of the way. I would like to support this small business and will be recommending this for the next work outing and night with friends.“
“This small, family run business is such a gem!The food is so authentic and delicious! (You know because the menu is in Spanish) The homemade tortillas and flavors were delicious!We had tlacoyos, tacos carnitas and pastor, as well as the alambre. We also had flan for dessert.“
“Food quite good, typical and affordable. A real Mexican experience, since the waitress spoke neither English nor French. We ordered with signs pointing to things on the menu. I had a beer (not stamped) that tasted ordinary, and I realized that it expired a year ago. I showed it to the waiter but apart from a grimace he did nothing. Well, I'm not full, we ate well.“
“First visit to this fabulous location and let me say you are immediately on vacation. The food is delicious, fresh and clean however i would add more spices and salt and thats a personal prefference. Choices and combinations are infinite and for the price you pay the portions are mega generous. Ide recommend anyone to give it a try its worth it. Decor is nice and welcoming .On a last note and an important one is that the gentlemen jimmy and the lady tatianna serving me are extraordinary people!!!! I will be back very soon. All love.“
“Great experience! We were a group of 10 last weekend and we were very pleased by the service and the food.The manager on the floor was hands down and our server was so friendly, polite and courteous. We were offered extra « surprise » shoots which made the experience even more pleasant and enjoyable, we ordered twice!! Food was served on time, place was super clean and we will for sure go back soon. Great customer service!!“
“Super nice place, the service was fast, the waitress was very nice. The entire menu was mouth watering. I would definitely go back to try the other dishes on the menu. The flavors were there, the portions were generous, only positivesGreat discovery“

“Nice restaurant with beautiful decor and good music! Why go to this restaurant? For something new, flavor in the different tapas and a good atmosphere! I went there with a friend on a Friday evening and we loved EVERYTHING about the meals! Such a delicious salad that contained popcorn (yes! yes!), tasty pork tacos and the other tapas we had were all just as delicious! A special mention to Pascal who served us throughout the evening with whom we lacked nothing and to M.J the chef who cooked the meals in front of us. I have to go back! ^_^“
“The menu is really varied and the presentation of the plates is mouth-watering and really delicious. There were 15 of us and everyone loved their dishes. The portions are generous, the service was fast, even if the restaurant was full. A sure value.“
“best experience with Ricardo Gomez. one of the 10 most prestigious mixologists in Montreal and not to mention the food, excellent flavor, super well served, and inexpensive. the atmosphere and the service is first, wow I came back with friends and family because the place is excellent, I recommend it 1000%“
“The place is small and cozy, the service is good. I ordered some tacos and quesadillas and I can say they did not disappoint. Definitely the flavor they should have and the sauces were the extra touch. Spicy and on point.I would definitely recommend it if you want to try some of the famous "Antojitos Mexicanos" ?“
“Delicious tacos at decent prices. Ordered the quesabirrias and chorizo tacos for takeout and both were fresh and absolutely delicious. Glad I’m from out of town or else I’d be apologizing to my wallet and waist line from ordering at this place regularly!“
“Anniversaire avec une vingtaine de personnes : Nourriture impeccable et absolument savoureuse. Cocktail et garçon au bar extraordinaire! Service… nous avons déjà connu mieux à ce resto… mais bref somme toute, le groupe était satisfait.“
“A gem of a Tex-Mex restaurant! I've been coming back to it constantly for years. The taste of the dishes is unbeatable. We felt as if we were welcomed by a Mexican family who cooked us home-cooked meals. Such a comforting place. And they use lots of beautiful vegetables (purple cauliflower, broccoli, colored peppers, etc.), it's so appreciated to see so much good quality on our plates for such reasonable prices. It’s truly a favorite place. Exquisite on every level!“
“Prime rib au jus ordered medium rare and served medium rare. Well-cooked fries and buttery vegetables that are neither too raw nor overcooked... What more could you want? Nice wine list appropriate to the menu and type of restaurant...reasonably priced wine. For dessert, a perfect semi-cooked...almost crispy on the outside and runny on the inside. Impeccable and friendly service. We give a 4 for atmosphere because, for many reasons, your establishment is very popular with the "brewery" style. THANKS !“

“Amazing staff! Fun and friendly, they graciously helped me explore and modify their offerings to decide on a meal choice based on my budget and dietary preferences. They applauded my (sad) attempt at Spanish and French and laughed at my (even sadder!) joke.The salad I decided on was super fresh and was a tremendous value for all the toppings I was offered. It is a great spot for vegetarian/vegan options.You guys were great! ????????Vegetarian options: Plentiful and fresh. You won't miss meat.Wheelchair accessibility: Excellent. And conveniently located at entrance 9 of the mall.“
“Located across the street from Marché Jean-Talon, this modest and authentic Tortilla serves up delicious food for takeaway, as well as selling imported Mexican staples to stock your home pantry. Well worth a visit, if you visit the market, though note its opening hours are limited and currently oriented to the weekend.“
“The wraps all have fries inside them, think of this as the filler. Next comes the choice of meat, sauce and optional vegetables & cheese.Almost all the flavour comes from your choice of sauce. It’s unfortunate that veggies are an extra cost, at an extra $1 per small portion of single vegetable you choose. Overall I think their menu should be revised, as the cheeses and certain meats are extras, but it just isn’t justified in my opinion due to their quantity in the wrap.Even a “small” is quite filling though, so keep that in mind when ordering.Tip: The choices can be a bit overwhelming, so be sure to have a look at the menu beforehand.“
