  • This place could be alright, but there's a real laziness that goes on that makes it pretty bad. Firstly, it's downtown, so it has that hallmark downtown feeling of being modern, slightly vacuous, eurotrashy (not trying to insult) but still cozy. But that was okay and kind of expected. Secondly, the server was really nice, doing her best to always be around. What was really pretty subpar was the food and drinks. I am really easy to please with tex-mex food, I even make it at home. But, the margaritas were pretty bad. It is 100% cocktail mix, and extremely weak. My gf and I had to order an extra shot with every drink, which my gf never would contemplate but she even felt she needed to. It was suuuuper weak, like I wanted to order two shots actually to add, but thought that would be a bit ridiculous. And then, the food was pretty bad, to be honest. I mean, there was nothing terrible, but it was as if they didn't even try. The nachos we had to start were all overcooked, and just very meh, and then our taco main courses, the beef in mine was so dry it just made me feel gross so I ate the tomato/lettuce/cheese etc only. My gf had fish tacos, and they were fish fingers like the same frozen packs we buy at the supermarket. She enjoyed it though, but come on, if you're gonna mark up your prices and sell yourself as a classier alternative to Burritoville etc, then you have to try a bit. Also, each plate came with a MASSIVE serving of black bean, which was just so dry and gross they both looked like cowpies. So much we couldn't stop laughing let alone contemplating actually eating it. It was hard to swallow without wetting it with water or sour cream or something. I've worked in kitchens and everything felt like it had just sat under the heating lamp for a long time. Also, our server was attentive, but everytime we asked for a napkin, for example, she just brought one tiny square, even though our hands were covered in taco juice haha. And then when we asked for more, like 3 times, we said could we have more than one? And she brought two. haha. She wasn't trying to be mean or anything but it was just weird and kind of funny. We had a good night, but mostly because it was dinner for my bday coming up this weekend and we were in a good mood. And the issue is that, nothing in the actual ingredients or whatever is that bad, there's just a huge lack of care and attention to detail. And so it just has that hallmark, empty, vacuous, meh, downtown feel. You can tell the people that opened this place were really into it once upon a time, they wanted it to stand out, and they just kinda gave up or something.. it feels as if its just kinda been left unscrutinized for a long time. There's much better options in Montreal, especially for the prices.
