Little Mexican restaurant in Laval. The specialty is Quesabirria, which is a soft shell tacos with…read morechoice of meat and a dip. The dip is the meat sauce. They also have regular tacos, quesatacos (tacos with cheese), enchiladas, burritos, nachos, poutine (?), chilaquiles (nachos served on green sauce, sour cream and cheese and some more. Menu is available on qr code but you can have paper if you prefer. We came on a Thursday night near 5pm. It was empty the whole time, but it seems a recurring theme on restaurant this summer so I won't judge on that. I tried the beef quesabirria. It's a soft shell tacos with a meat juice dip. My girlfriend took the birra chilaquiles. Overall it was good, but nothing that would make me come back. Both meal were pulled beef in the end and tasted exactly the same. I didn't get the dip thing with the tacos. The beef already taste like the juice (since, well, it's the meat juice) so it added nothing when I dipped it. The chilaquiles tastes exactly the same but with chips instead. It's suppose to have a green sauce (we did saw it) but couldn't saw there was a difference in taste. I also took a small chips and guacamole. It's wasn't bad, fresh, but it welt like it was missing some seasoning or something in the guacamole. Was a bit blend. Maybe pork or chicken would be better but we didn't try. All in all, it's not bad, I wouldn't say no if someone offered me food from there but it wouldn't be my first pick. If you are craving "Americanize" Mexican (usual tex me and such), this isn't for sure. It is not a 3 amigos or Carlos and pepes (which are worst in my opinion). I can't vouch for authenticity of the food according to Mexican cuisine since I don't know outside of Americanize one.

I came here for a Friday night taco craving. I did a takeout…read moreorder but they have a very nice and big seating area. The man that took my order was really nice. And I got my order very fast I got the mangonada as a drink and it was really good, they make it from fresh fruits from the bar which I loved, and it was made to order and not premade. I ordered guacamole and chips and also Picco de Gallo, to my surprise the portion of those were really small compared to other taco places that I've been, so it was abitt disappointing but it was good noneless. I also ordered the quesabirria, it came with 4 tacos and I was able to choose my meat, so I choose chicken and beef. This came with consomme, I also asked for salsa verde and they gave me 3 salsas which was nice of them.(the salsa was really spicy and good) I can say that the tacos were hands down really really good I definitely recommend this place highly for mexican food, I would definitely come back again for done in experience or even take out if I'm having a craving again.

I enjoyed their little joint with the authentic vibe , the mexican flag and the beautiful menu on their chalk board it was a pretty cool ambiance but the food really didn't speak for itself and wasn't good at all.. maybe they were having an off day who knows!? The food: not really good.. I unfortunately got very ill and didnt feel good the day after.. something was off with the tacos de mais.. They didn't taste good to begin with.. the shell wasn't soft and tasted pretty stale and sandy as I bit into it... it was old. As I read other reviews I was convinced that this place was the real deal for authentic tacos, hmm not quite actually very far from authentic mexican tacos.. they tasted really commercialized and the tacos bread was not fresh and probably store bought 2-3 days old. the garnishing was drenched with parsley and cilantro was super overwhelming with herbs :/.. the beef Tacos oh boy :/ it was dry and bland tasteless.. I couldn't swallow it as it tasted like sand in my mouth and was not able to swallow it down my throat... I had to gulp 1L of water to wash that taco down my belly.. I don't think I finished my meal and just threw out both dishes in the poubelle :( I was very hesitant to write a review but then I reminded myself that honesty is the best policy and people should know the truth always.. I really am disappointed as I was really impressed with the little joint and the ambiance but unfortunately my food didn't sit well with me I was not feeling so good afterwards for 2 days.. Don't think I'll be back here

Mango salad - Super tasty salad that is a play on the street vendor mango but in salad form. It is a mix of julienned cucumber and mixed ripe mangoes with some Tajin and vinaigrette. Would recommend to try. Mr mole taco - I don't think it is a truly authentic mole, but still a good taco. At 12 dollars for 2 it was a bit steep, but still pretty good. It does have some chocolatey flavour. Nice to try. fish tacos - Fish tacos were pretty standard. Thick batter, mayo and a large chunk of fish.

There was an empty glass given but there wasn't even ice or a slice of lime or anything served with it. Asking for some ice for her drink took incredibly long too with how slow the service was. - the AC inside was WAY too cold, so cold that it hardened the cheese on some of the dishes as we waited for everyone's food to come out Overall this restaurant's food and drinks are great, with our experience marred by poor service. There seemed to be a ton of staff available the day we dined so there wasn't an excuse for how long it took to be served and to pay our bills.

I've been to a couple of them, and this location is definitely one of my favorites, along with the Jean-Talon location. You know the food is good when everyone at the table goes quiet because they're too busy eating. This was actually my first time ordering La Toxica on Uber Eats since I live pretty far away, and even with a 75-minute wait, it was 100% worth it. The carnitas tacos are probably the best tacos I've had so far. I haven't found another place that does them quite like this. The al pastor is incredible too flavour-wise, it's hard to find anything that compares. I've tried a lot of taco spots around Montreal, and this is one of the closest experiences I've had to authentic Mexican tacos. I enjoy Three Amigos, but it's a completely different style of food. La Toxica feels like the kind of place where someone's mom or grandma is in the kitchen making recipes that have been passed down for generations. The Birria and the consommé is always packed with flavor. If you're not sipping the consommé after dipping your tacos, you're missing out. Highly recommended.
