Always heard great reviews of this place so had to try it out while we were downtown St. Ab. We shared the El Pastor Taco and each had a margarita. I had the coconut version and my friend tried the classic. Both were delicious! The tacos were also delicious. They have signage on the door that says they'll be moving to near the Costco. That will probably be nice. I found this location pretty dingy, dark and really hot inside. The washroom has some damage from water all along the baseboards. I think a new place will really make them shine. I'll definitely keep looking to see when they move and try out their new location. Service was quick and friendly. Food came out quickly. Good experience. read more

Fresh and flavourful! We had the Chorizo Tacos and the Chicken Pastor Tacos along with sides of tortilla chips and in house made red salsa and guacamole, Service was paced well so we weren't rushed. Ice cold Modelo and a couple Bartenders Margaritas. We'll be back! read more

I'll start this by saying maybe we came on an off day... I've heard nothing but good things, but unfortunately our experience didn't quite reflect that. It took quite a while to be seated, we were largely ignored by our servers and constantly had to ask for water refills. Our food took a long time to arrive and when it did, it was very chewy and mostly flavourless. Overall disappointing since I was so excited to find a St. Albert taco joint! read more

This was the 4th place we tried as other places were full or closed or had a lineup. It was quite good i went with the chirizo sausage taco. Very good. Tony had beef taco also good. My margarita was excellent, but i paid for the top shelf one, so it was expected to be excellent. I knocked off a star because even the stuff we thougjt woild be spicy was not. So if you like heat, you may have to tell them to crank it up a bit. Only other thing to note is tjay it says tacos and tequilla on the outside, and true to their word they have tacos and tequilla and not much else. read more

Came out with the whole fam jam (Gramma, Hubby, and both kiddos) tonight & so disappointed :-( We were served like warm water, had to ask for silverware & napkins, and while our main server was friendly there were a couple not so cheerful ones walking around. The volume was super loud inside - think having to almost tell to hear each other. Chips and salsa was $9.50 and came with just a handful of chips. They asked if we wanted more - which we did - but didn't find out until we were paying that there was an additional $4 charge for more chips! Also, both chip portions were 50% crumbles or pieces broken to about 1/4 chip size - pretty hard to eat with salsa. My 4 year old ordered rice and beans for $4 and man were they bland. He literally asked if they forgot to put in the flavor :-( The Yucatan Pescado fish tacos (2 for $11) were the best thing we had but nothing to write home about. My daughter enjoyed the Gringo Beef tacos (2 for $11) but the price still seems high. They were super drippy as well. Chicken al pastor tacos (2 for $10) were super bland and all 3 adults in our group elected to add hot sauce to these. We also shared street corn - 3 ears for $11. This was probably my favourite item here. Service was slow and hit and miss depending on who was helping you. Overall, I'd give the food 3 stars but the value was poor. 6 tacos, 1 bowl beans/rice, 3 corns, and chips/salsa - $70 I'd rather go to Tres Carnales or Calle Mexico any day - same prices but authentic and super flavorful. Cerdos - I don't think we'll be back. read more

Friday's = time to try a new restaurant for lunch. Bonus, new lunch buddy! We decided to check out Cerdo Tacos + Tequila, sister restaurant to the uber popular Jack's Burger Shack because Mexican options are few and far in between this oasis we call Edmonton. Okay, technically Cerdo's is in St. Albert but come on, it's pretty much the same. We arrived around 12:15pm and the place was packed. We had to sit in the bar area but eventually were able to snag a table as the lunch rush slowly filed out. Man, I don't know if this is normally the case but service was slooooow. Took forever for us to order and even longer to get our food. I don't normally complain (that much) about service but we only ordered two dishes! Here's a breakdown of their menu along with prices (starters, huevo bowls and tacos). Seriously, I really, really, REALLY don't like when restaurant websites don't list their prices. - Nachos ($13.50) with the Saltroom's chorizo ($3.00) - corn tortilla chips, jack cheese, tomato, green onion, jalapeno with sour cream and salsa as dipping sauces. The chips were crunchy and had that satisfying bite to it but the cheese could have used some better layering skills (it pretty much was all clumped into the middle). The jalapenos weren't spicy at all but gave the dish some colour. We added some chorizo - a tad expensive for a few pieces of chorizo, although it was tasty. The nachos were decent but we felt like you could make these at home pretty easily. Factor in the price, it's definitely overpriced for what it is. - Chicken al pastor ($9.00) - guajillo marinated chicken, pineapple, cilantro and radish. The tacos come in pairs, topped with cabbage and onion and with your choice of either corn (gluten free) or flour tortillas. I don't understand their choice of offering two tortillas over the standard three. Given that, the tortillas were stuffed with a good amount of chicken. Cilantro was fresh. Pineapple was itty bitty pieces - a few small sliced pieces would have gave it a nice contrasting sweetness. The chicken wasn't bad. Overall, the taco was missing something - a kick to it, a Mexican hot sauce or something like that would have helped. We didn't see the hot sauce bottle until after we ate the whole taco though. Oops, our bad but they should have had something in it originally! It's nice to see a more diverse selection of food options available in St. Albert. I know they have mad love for chains over here so I applaud the owners for bringing something new and different. I will have to try a few more dishes to see if my opinion changes of Cerdo's. As for now, decent spot but not my first choice in town when I'm craving Mexican food. read more

The rooftop patio is a must for hot summer days! Their Bulldogs are delicious, but they can also just make a classic or flavored Margarita for you! The tacos are delicious and never dry or bland! I highly recommend the Carnitas or Shrimp tacos! read more

In March, St. Albert welcomed the new Cerdos Tacos + Tequila, a Mexican eatery located in the central Perron District and heart of the city. Sister restaurant to the neighboring Jack's Burger Shack, Cerdos Tacos + Tequila offers a wide variety of starters, huevo bowls, tacos and a drinks menu that will make tequila enthusiasts and margarita lovers proud. Taking over the space of the short-lived Feast & Lounge, the owners discovered that demand for the comfort food-oriented menu was less than expected what with Jack's Burger Shack right there. With a passion towards Mexican cuisine and tacos, the space was reinvented and reincarnated to give you Cerdos! Last month I spent one of my few available lunches to check Cerdos out. I recruited my friends Josh and Jesse (two hungry fellows!) to help me with the spread. The P&C Shrimp tacos (think the Chinese takeout peaches and cream shrimp) were surprisingly delicious! Shredded cabbage and slivered almonds gave the taco a nice crunch, while cold marinated shrimp was refreshing and cooked perfectly. The plantain and peach puree added a touch of sweetness, a summer-patio kind of taco if I ever had one. Despite this taco being originally high on my "errr, I don't know" list, it ended up being one of my favourites. Pork carnitas is a must order at any taqueria. It's a standard in my books. The pork was well cooked, crisp edges and the salsa verde was delicious. More salsa verde please! I don't joke around when I'm determined to order the whole menu. Chicken Al Pastor and Gringo Beef tacos were also on our list. The chicken was marinated with guajillo chiles, a flavour that I wished pulled through a little bit more. The pineapples were a nice touch but became the predominant flavour for me. The Yucatan Salmon tacos were a favourite amongst my tablemates. The spiced rubbed salmon were cut in bite sized pieces, making it easy to get a bite full every time. Ah... the chorizo. At the time, Cerdos Tacos + Tequila was using the local D'Arcy's Meat Market's chorizo, one of my favourite products from them. Loved the fresh guacamole and definitely a re-order item for me. Since my visit, they have switched to using chorizo from The Salt Room by Chef Tony Krause. Love the fact that they're supporting local businesses and restauranteurs! Our last taco for the day, the Cachete Beef Tacos. I was really excited about this one, a Mexican oregano and cinnamon braised beef with queso fresco and salsa caliente (tomatoes, habanero, jalapeno, cilantro, and lime). Perhaps my hopes were too high, I really wanted to taste every single described flavour profile! A delicious taco, nevertheless, but I'd love for a pop of cinnamon and the salsa caliente to hit me with all it's got! All taco orders come in a set of two, with a choice of corn (gluten-free) or flour tortillas. My personal preference: the flour tortillas. Tacos range from $7.50 to $12.50 and all can be made "Quesadilla style" for an extra $3. I would love to see more of the house made salsa on all tacos or perhaps put on the side for diners to add on at their leisure. Margaritas (also available as non-alcoholic) and cocktails (non-tequila lover options also available) were on point. Service and the kitchens were fantastic, given our large order and the start of a lunch rush. Overall, a great space and atmosphere for St. Albertans and a with a wide variety of tacos, something to please even the pickiest! Happy for a great alternative to the much-loved Tres Carnales (still my fav!) that can be a little inaccessible for those who don't live in the Edmonton core. When the St. Albert Farmer's Market reopens in June, Cerdos Tacos + Tequila will be a fantastic spot for a meal and a lovely addition to their downtown area. In addition to Jack's Burger Shack, the two restaurants anchor the small complex and no doubt will make the people hungry for more! read more

I am never disappointed here by the food! The gringo beef tacos are my go to, with a side of rice and beans. The fish tacos are also verrrryy tasty. Don't forget to try a Jarritos while you are there (Mexican soda). I like the lime one. read more

Came for a weekday lunch and was surprised they weren't super busy. The guy behind the bar was our server and he was great. Super friendly and a pleasure to deal with. We were told they didn't have chicken or fish that day, so we went with the migas huevos bowl ($12.50) and the chorizo tacos ($12) on corn tortillas. Hearty portion of chorizo in both orders, and it was very tasty and flavourful. The bowl needed a bit more flavour - I wish it was served with cilantro and a wedge of lime since I think it would take it over the top. There were lots of chips and the egg was soft and fluffy. They also didn't have fresh avocado, so they used guacamole on our orders (guess it's not made in house?). Overall, we enjoyed our meals and the service. We've been here numerous times and have always had a pleasant experience. It's a good alternative to having to drive downtown if you're towards the West end. read more

It was the day before Cinco de Mayo and I went for tacos! I had heard for awhile I should try this place out. Totally worth it. First it is corny but at least it is trying for a Mexican feel. The service was quick and good. Had a mojito, it was meh but an actual good mojito is hard to find! The chorizo tacos though yummy! The fact is they have a few options which puts them way ahead typical tacos places. Oh and they have tequila so ya take that taco bell! $20 for a drink and a couple decent tacos is a decent price. I mean no it isn't cheap but you get what you pay for. I would say this is a great little Mexican lunch spot! read more

I've been really excited to try Cerdo for a long time... but every time I try to go, I end up at Jack's Burger Shack next door instead. Not for any reason other than the fact that I am addicted to their burgers. I finally walked in on a Sunday around 5 pm and ordered some take out. Service was kind of lack lustre. We took a really long time with the menu, since we hadn't been there before. And when we finally decided, some of the things we wanted couldn't be done for take out (maybe mention that when you hand me the menu?). Anyway, we finally decided and it took about 10 minutes for our food to be ready. We got an order of the pork carnitas tacos and the gringos tacos. Oh and an order of chips with 2 salsa and a guacamole. The guac was good, but the salsas were a little underwhelming. The carnitas tacos had big chunks of pork - I was expecting smaller pieces of meat. They were pretty fatty too. I would not order them again. The gringos were great. Lots of ground beef, just enough cheese and a big plop of salsa roja. I added sour cream to it as well. The menu described them as messy and not authentic. Which although true, seemed like a strange thing to put in the description. I watched the bartender make a few margaritas and bulldogs and was really disappointed to see that their margaritas are just tequila added to pre-made slush and lime juice. I'll come back if this is where somebody else wants to go, but it won't be my first choice. read more

Been to Mexico, been to top notch Mexican restaurants. Not really as authentic as I'd like. Good food though. Ok prices. Wasn't really a restaurant for me. I'm used to something else though. I'd recommend them if someone were to ask about them though. read more

Okay, the first time Shawn and I had food from here it was take out, and didn't travel well. I went back recently with my partner, and we both had the gringo beef. It was good, but super super greasy, and nothing to write home about. The service really confused me. Our waitress was super friendly when we got there, and as we sat chatting and such, she kept coming over and telling us there was no rush, all while getting more and more irritated with us. After my partner paid, she slammed the receipt on the table and walked off without a word (and I know the tip was good). This place isn't bad, but the inconsistent service and better tacos elsewhere make me hesitant to come back, even though it's a short drive away. read more

We enjoyed this place. It has a lovely ambiance. The tv in the corner showing Mexican wrestling was an impressive touch. It does seem more geared towards a lunch environment than a dinner environment. The music was a little loud for my tastes, but we could still talk. We both had the special. We found the food very good and very filling. Good price for what you get. Found the service to be a bit on the slow side, but the waitress was nice and friendly. Overall, we enjoyed the place and would definitely come back. read more

My girlfriends and I came here for cinco de mayo and I can just say that we have found our favourite taco joint. The food was spicy but so was the waiter. The service was impeccable, they were very attentive to our experience throughout the evening. Though it was obviously busy -because it's so good- we still were able to get a table in prompt time. From margaritas to gringo beef, all in all I really enjoyed this cute restaurant downtown St. Albert! Happy cinco de mayo read more

Cerdo Tacos + Tequila - Mexican Near Me - St. Albert, Alberta

Myself and my wife have been to Cerdo on a number of occasions and have enjoyed our experience immensely. During one visit we had the opportunity to speak with one of the owners and told him how happy we were to have such a great new (and Mexican) restaurant on the St. Albert scene. In demonstrating our St. Albert pride, we chose to attend your restaurant last night to share the great experience with our eldest daughter and her boyfriend, and my youngest daughter for the purpose of a family birthday celebration. We arrived at 7:30 pm and chose to first order drinks and appetizers. Shortly after ordering our main dishes, I realized I had forgotten to order a side dish that my wife & I had wanted. I was told the kitchen had closed five minutes ago and it was not possible to get what we wanted. Our waitress came and advised us of last call and we were obligated to put in another order for drinks. Our order came and the food and drinks were good. Our entire party was shocked when the waitress came and interrupted our dinner, requesting that I pay the bill so that "things could get settled and it would make things smoother at the end". I interrupted my dinner to pay. The interruption was incredibly awkward and I cannot ever recall a situation where dining out, where a server has actually interrupted our dinner for the purpose of payment. I was horrified at this request and the audacity to interrupt our meal, however I think I was so surprised that none of us at the table said anything. I also generously provided a 15% tip for a $200 meal that had not yet been complete. Our server advised us many times to "take our time" with our meal, yet once paid, never bothered to attend the table again to see if we wanted dessert/coffee etc....(she did get us "to go" containers for our food). As we were finishing off our food, imagine our shock and horror when this time, the COOK came by telling us that we had 5 minutes til closing. We were NOT impressed. We were made to feel that we and our patronage was not wanted (although our money clearly was). We were rushed and treated rudely by the COOK, not to mention the server. Our entire party was pretty angry at this point and left, feeling that we were not valued and quite frankly shocked at the treatment that we received. As mentioned, we have previously attended Cerdo and was very happy with the experience until last night. My wife and I as St. Albert residents feel that it is important to support small and independent businesses within the community, however we will take our business elsewhere in St. Albert if this is the new standard at Cerdo. read more

Sadly, my experience here was quite disappointing. We arrived about 7:30 on a Saturday evening, and the place was packed, both inside and rooftop. Long before our food arrived, however, it had emptied out. Considering how long it took for our food, it made me wonder how long people had waited when the crowd was ordering. Seating was a choice of tall backless stools or a low bench, neither contributing to comfort levels, and the tables for stools didn't allow much room for food, let alone a jacket or purse. Water came promptly but was not chilled, and our glasses were hot out of the dishwasher, resulting in warm drinking water. We had to ask for silverware (the table's bucket had only knives and one fork in it) and napkins. We ordered the chips with two salsas and guac. The bucket of chips was quite small, resulting in a lot of leftover salsa and guac, so when the waitress asked if we wanted more chips, we said yes. She didn't ask if wanted to ORDER more, just if we WANTED more, so it was quite a surprise when the bill showed we were charged an additional $4 for the second small bucket (the original order was $9.50, so a total of $14 was crazy for relatively few chips). To add insult to injury, the chips weren't even warm and most of them were broken crumbles, too small to easily dip in the salsa. This really seems unreasonable to me and ended the evening with a sense of irritation. It may seem petty, but the combo of inferior chips plus sneaky charging really bugged me! Tacos are 2 for $11 - we tried sets of fish, chicken and ground beef. Although they were certainly okay, they weren't especially impressive. A bowl of beans and rice was $4 and was pronounced flavourless by a four year old aficionado who pushed them away after one bite. The best item on the table was the corn on the cob (3 ears for $11), which everyone enjoyed. Would I return? Probably not. The food is "okay" but pricey for what we got, both in quality and quantity. Service was spotty and at least one of the servers walked around in a fugue of grumpiness which also didn't do much to make the evening more pleasant. read more

I'm glad St. Albert is getting some fun new places like Cerdo + Tequila! I get tired on the chains and if you're looking for a fun time locally owned St. Albert spot then I say this place is it! The shrimp tacos were the best! The salsa had peaches in it and it was simply a light delight! I had a delicious glass of Pinot Grigio and a bulldog. I think they should use different glassware for the bulldog cuz it was hard to get a full stir on, which is essential for bulldog enjoyment. The place was very busy and the ticket times were a bit long, but it was a Friday night so I give y'all an acceptable pass on that. All in all, I'd definitely go again! It's like one of the best meals I've had in stalbies (St. Albert) Oh, and they had chorizo from D'Arcy's Meat, which is local to Stalbs! Classy move! That meat was da bomb! read more

Amazing tacos, very authentic Mexican food!! Great service too, I would highly recommend this place for anyone looking to eat in St Albert!

Just had the opportunity to try the new menu! It's like being in Mexico all over again. You can really tell everything is fresh made. The real tortilla chips and fresh guac are a great addition! The dessert platter was something I've never had or expected, and absolutely loved it! Surprisingly, even the vegetarian options were awesome! Glad to see the menu is staying fresh and with the times. Although I do miss some of the old favourites, the tacos make up for the void, and the varieties of tequila wash everything down nicely! read more

Finally went there last weekend for the first time. I had a bulldog and the fish tacos. The tacos were absolutely fabulous! Their aioli sauce is delicious, the fish seasoning was full of flavour. However, the service was so-so; friendly enough. It was a bit pricey for the amount of food you get-- TWO tacos?! They are on the larger scale, but I definitely could've done three. Or just include a side with them, that would be a good compromise. It's hard to beat my already-favourite taco spots in YEG-- Rostizado and its original big brother, Tres Carnales-- but I'll definitely come back to try the rest of Cerdo's menu! read more

Great to have a Mexican option in St. Albert! It is the same great owners as Feast and Lounge, but with a whole new menu.

The taco portions are large so I would recommend splitting one between two people. read more

Trust me, get the pork! Thank god we finally have a great taco place in St. Albert. I've been twice and I can't get off of the pork tacos. The steak tacos are great and so are the shrimps tacos, but that pork... It beats any taco in the city and I've been to them all. They have a great selection of drinks, the tequila selection however is small but I'm sure that will change (they are new). The 3 dips with chips is really good, and the corn as a side is amazing! The only reason it's not five stars for me is the rice and beans. They're not good. Everything else is wonderful. read more

My boyfriend and I visited this restaurant over the weekend and had a really great experience. We sat on the patio upstairs which is one of the best in the city. I recommend ordering the Tres Dips (corn chips with guacamole and two salsas) as soon as you order drinks because the wait time for food can be a little long if you have nothing to munch on. We ordered the Gringo Beef, Chicken Al Pastor and Chorizo tacos. All of them were really flavourful and delicious! We'll definitely be back again. read more

After every sandwich spot within a 15 km radius was closed, we saw this taco joint. I had the chorizo tacos and a bulldog. The bulldog was delicious, although there was some brown dirt floating on it - not enough for me not to finish, but enough. The chorizo taco was delicious. Lots of meat, plenty amount of guacamole. I had it on a corn tortilla, very soft and tasty. The guacamole was very fresh. Will definitely return. read more

IT WAS AMAZINGGGGGG. the way the lime contrasted with the meat gave me butterflies. iohhhh i go'd there in a heart beat.

My favorite quick sit down (or take out) restaurant. Cerdo does a fabulous job of tacos, quesadillas, and huevos. Whether you are in the mood for fish, beef, pork, shrimp, or black beans, they have a tasty dish for you. Gluten free food options abound, due to the corn tortillas, and deft menu design. Friendly staff on top of excellent food. My favorites are the shrimp tacos with an extra half avocado or the fish tacos. For breakfast or brunch the migas bowl. Enjoy! read more

I am a celiac so I am always looking for new places to eat. Cerdo did not disappoint. In fact, I was honestly expected a good but average meal however my meal was FANTASTIC. I had the Gluten Free carnitas tacos (with corn soft tacos) and it was hands down the best I've had (and I have been to multiple other well known Mexican restaurants in and around Edmonton). The meat was so tender and the flavours were amazing. I did request their grilled, chopped pineapple on top which might have put it over the top delicious but I'm sure without it, it still would have been great. Waitress did say all the tacos are GF with the corn tortilla. My husband had the Gringo Beef and said it was really good as well! Service was great and food came out prompt but we were also there on a Friday during the Christmas break, -30 outside and in-between meal rushes (2:30pm) SOOO it was a little set up in our favour to be quiet inside which meant food came fast! Highly recommend checking it out. read more

Best Tacos in town, usually pretty good service and food overall. I enjoy the atmosphere and the rooftop patio. Definitely recommend it, and try their nachos! read more

Always like popping into here for a margarita or two. The decor is fun with the luchador theme. The staff is always friendly and eager to please. The food has always been tasty and reasonably priced for what you get. If you want cheaper go to Taco Bell, but you won't get the quality you will at Cerdo. I've found the portion size to be just enough to make me comfortable but not overly full which to me is a good thing. Also if you get the chance try their Pinocchio brand gelato it's delicious! read more

In all candor, this place was a complete disappointment. I have found a growing trend in St. Albert- people jump on anything that is new and proclaim it great. And I am slowly learning that they are usually wrong in their bandwagon mindsets. First of all, the menu leaves a lot to be desired. If the prices don't appal you, the lack of imagination in the food will. Usually I am fond of concise menus, quality not quantity; however, Cerdo doesn't have a good selection of quality options. Furthermore, the drinks menu is equally disappointing. We ordered coconut, lime and strawberry house margaritas. Although not terrible, adding tequila, to strawberry syrup, and putting a slush on top, and failing to mix it is subpar. For food we ordered the carnitas, and Yucatan pescado tacos. Holy smokes no thank you!! To start with, the fish was awful. It had no flavour and it was mushy, and the pork wasn't great either. It was served in big chunks, although tender, it also lacked flavour. Both were served on top of a bunch of cabbage and onions. And I have no idea what the sauce was, but it didn't add anything redeeming to the tacos. When we are paying basically $5 a taco, I would expect a lot more than that. All together our bill, which included, 3 drinks and 2 taco orders, came to $40. Which I found to be extremely overpriced for the quality of food we were served. There are far better taco places than Cerdo, so save your money and don't jump on this bandwagon. read more

Not authentic Mexican tacos but flavors were pretty decent. Food - chicken al pastor. Not really slow roasted on a rotating stick al pastor (pork) but flavors were decent, good mix of sweet and salty. Carnitas were good as well, well seasoned. Chips and dips - guacamole needed seasoning and so did the salsas. 2 tacos for $9-$10 is not great value, that is where they would lose a half star. Atmosphere - quick eats. Maybe felt a little rushed. Drinks - didn't enjoy any of their adult beverages this time and didn't offer Jaritos for pop on the menu. Overall - mixed 3.5-4 stars. I would definitely give it another go. Not as authentic or tasty as Tres but it gives St. Albert another food option. read more

Came here at the suggestion of my coworkers after they gave it some rave reviews and I was sorely disappointed. Service was subpar and food was barely acceptable. Walked in and the place looked packed, asked someone at the bar (there was no hostess station) if there were any seats upstairs and were told to go look for ourselves. Ended up getting a seat at a communal table downstairs. Waitress took a very long time to get us water and take our orders. When we did order some drinks they took a very long time to arrived. Ordered nachos and three types of tacos, all disappointing. The meat was dry and everything generally lacked flavor. Will not return. read more
