" When you want authentic Mexican food in Montreal, you have to try El Rey del Taco! Their tacos al pastor are to die for and remind me of my adventures in Mexico. They also have an amazing selection of salsas that elevate each dish. However, I did find the service a bit lacking at times, especially during rush hours. Despite that, the food is worth every bite and penny. I will definitely be back! " (*Curated Review*)

Still, the food overshadowed any wait time. I left feeling full and happy! " (*Curated Review*)
