Fantastic lunch at TaChido. Ignore the naysayers who say you can't get great Mexican food north of Texas. One of our group said her torta was the best she ever had. I had a torta, an Agua Fresca de Jamaica and chapulines. Great service, great food, and really cool art inside (I loved the classic Mexican scifi and Lucha libre movie posters). read more

Ta Chido is a great Mexican restaurant. I have been there a couple dozen times. I very much enjoy the following: Quesadillas: taste delicious , can't go wrong with any option Ta-chido special : the chicken mole is amazing I love it The sandwiches - they are big hearty and the bread is baked on site fresh everyday. The prices are reasonable I'd say totally worth it as the quality of the food is very high! read more

Sooooo fast forward a month, by fluke i check on Uber Eats and there they are. Stoked i order the Tofu Al pastor since it was so close to the real deal last time... so close it left me wondering, well tonight i got my answer...it tasted so much like pork last time because it was, tonight it was clearly tofu, looks, texture and all...Thankfully it's a lifestyle choice and not an allergy. Mistakes happen but still disappointing... read more

I've lived 5 minutes away from this place for about 6-7 years and I've only tried it now. HOW? It was great, the prices are fair, the staff is helpful, the vibe is cool, and the food is delicious. I do wish they were bigger portions but it is a snack place. I got the Black bean taco. It was delectable. read more

Tachido is a Mexican snack bar that serves up the yummiest sandwich on the block! Dishes are fresh, portions are hearty, and the space is bright and welcoming. Even the staff is endearingly friendly and proud to share their establishment with clients. They offer "torta" (hot sandwich) with generous fillings of avocado, fried onion, tomato, and cheese with your choice of options like pulled pork or chipotle chicken, served in buckwheat bread or in their homemade, gluten-free, panini-like bread. The corn-tortillas for the quesidillas are made in-house, as are the delectable "almond cookies" which I suggest you chomp after your meal! For a fresh meal under $10, Tachido is my new lunch spot on Parc Ave. I've only been for lunch so I wouldn't know about drinks at Tachido other than what's on their menu: specialty drinks including "agua fresca des dia" in different flavors every day - when I dropped by it was 'watermelon'. YUM. They also offer Mexican beer and sangria, and hibiscus Margaritas. read more

Stumbled upon this place after searching for gluten-free in Montréal (often a fruitless search) and was luckily nearby with a friend to give it a shot. They have just opened less than two months ago, and it's the owner's first resto venture. Him and his father, who is the baker, were very friendly and talked to me about the resto. The owner's sister and some of her friends are gluten-free and told him that he has to make an option for them. What did he do? Put his dad to work and create a delicious and chewy gluten free version of their own home made panini-style bread, that includes cheese inside. The main ingredient of the gf-flour is yuca. Onto the sandwiches: I ordered the Chipotle Chicken on gluten free bread & the side beans & watermelon lemonade. It also came with a hot sauce type dip. The owner also brought us pickled peppers to try. The sandwich was delicious and full of stuff inside, which I am still thinking about days later. Like, I cannot stop thinking about it. I wish I lived closer! The beans were too watery and over salted. The watermelon lemonade tasted too fake. The two latter sides are what gives this place a 4 and not a 5. My friend had the pulled pork on regular bread and he was swooning. We were both pleasantly stuffed after the meal. My friend mentioned that often he goes to these types of places and is never full. I will definitely be back many times over, especially at the affordable student pricing. The decor is inviting and very clean. Go! read more

Really gooddddd!!! They take really good care of celiacs!! The place is super decorated its beautiful! The tacos are delicious read more

I've been here twice in less than 24 hours and I don't even feel guilty. This place makes the best tinga de pollo torta I've ever tasted. Admittedly, it's the only one I've ever tasted, but I'd like to see anybody try to make one better. Their guacamole is exceptional and the tostadas are magnificent. The cherry on top is the service. Great people, very quick and all around good vibes. read more

Ta Chido - When your Yelp review is framed and displayed in one of your favourite restaurants. - Mexican Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

It used to be amazing, and their ham and pineapple sandwiches still are. But they recently doubled the size of their room, as well as their menu length. I don't get why they felt the need to add so many new dishes that all look like slight variation on existing stuff. Worst of all, it dramatically lowered the average quality of their offering. The taco chido is basically cheap over cooked rice with dry bits of beef, served on two tortillas. Though it sounds like an end of month broke student meal, I'm sure a talentless millennial could much better with some fridge leftovers and an access to YouTube. Pains me to say this because this used to be my go to Mexican joint. read more

Inedible. I felt sick for hours after. Everything tasted off, and badly prepared. Horrible excuse for Mexican food.

We discovered this place accidentally looking for open restaurants on Av du Parc. We were little uncertain about the place looking at the decor. But the tacos are hands down the best tacos around. They bake their own bread so they suggested us we try the tortas next time. read more

Their Mexican sandwiches are amazing, they even have one with mole, my favourite is the Cuban sandwich. The michelada (beer, with a bit of salt, pepper and lemon) is really good. It's worth the visit to try this type of Mexican cuisine that is not the common offer you find in other Mexican restaurants. read more

Fresh bread and eccentric decor. The tortas are amazing and filling. Especially paired with a refreshing and tasty michelada. Authentic tacos and all reasonably priced. read more

I came to Montreal visiting from NJ and just passed by this place and it seemed interesting from the outside. This small Mexican place had the best torta I have ever had in my life. The tinga de pollo torta is delicious. I wish it were a little cheaper but the quality and taste is magnificent. The restaurant setting is filled with interesting toys and a vintage feel so it is a nice place for a hangout. read more

The sign boasts "Best Mexican Sandwich in Montreal". Not knowing what a Mexican sandwich was in the first place, I was sceptical, but intrigued. The inside is cozy, and the decor is hip. In particular I like the flashy Vegas style Virgin Mary ornament near the cash. I got the pulled pork sandwich to go, and it really hit the spot. The bread was tasty and I liked the jalapeno sauce that came with it too. I overheard that they are soon to get their liquor license and will be serving tacos and drinks at night... competition with Nouveau Palais?? Tasty sandwich, I'll be back. read more

This is a fun kitschy spot that serves Mexican street food that has charisma to spare. As soon as you step in, you'll notice the display cases surrounding the little restaurant filled with an odd assortment of toys. It was so whimsical and inviting that I immediately felt nostalgic and comfortable in the space. In addition, the walls are adorned in some fun street art that I'm sure carry some sort of subversive message. Definitely interesting. Interesting appearances aside, what's really admirable about this place is that it's family-run and that the food is actually home-made (including the breads). Another notable thing is that I try to avoid Montreal's offerings of "Mexican" food, because it always tastes terrible. However, this place offers fresh food that isn't your standard bastardized Canadian/American/Tex-Mex phony Mexican fare. It's prepared with care and creativity by a Mexican family, and tastes nothing like the crap on offer at 3 Amigos or Carlos and Pepe's (ew!!!). Also, if you're there, make sure you speak to the owner. He's an interesting filmmaker and both collects and makes the toys that are displayed at the restaurant, and can talk you ear off about the history of his toy collection (pretty fascinating). The menu is fun as well and comes in gluten-free options and vegetarian friendly. I ordered the pulled pork sandwich, which was sizable and tasty. The pulled pork was good, and the toppings and home-made bread were delicious. My friend ordered mushroom quesedillas, which were especially delicious because of the home-made cornbread tortillas. The sauces are home-made and killer good (especially the chipotle one). We also decided to "trio" our meals. My friend went for the salad, which was good, and I also got frijoles rancheros, a type of soup/dip. The frijoles rancheros were a bit too salty and runny for my tastes, so I'll opt for that the next time I go. The drink was a fresca, or freshly squeezed melon juice. It was nice, pink, and refreshing. Finally, we had to end our meal with corn cake. Yes, corn cake, with bits of fresh corn baked right into it! It was absolutely delicious... not too sweet, not savoury, just very tasty and very home-made, but unlike any cake I've had before. I finished that off with a very delicious coffee. Both meals plus dessert and coffee came out to a cool 25$. I'll be back here on a Friday night, when I'm told that the place really opens up as a bar with delicious tacos. I'm looking forward to my next visit! read more

Food took forever. People working there just seemed annoyed that people were there. Waitress making annoyed sounds and gestures to people behind their back. No good. read more

i went to this restaurant last night, and was pretty disappointed. I gotta say i was also pretty confused when i checked it out on yelp this morning to see really good reviews. I recently returned from the southwest US, and am now obsessed with Mexican food. in that region, tacos cost about half as much as they do at this place, and have about 3 time as much toppings on each taco. Anyway, i ordered three (different) tacos, and i wish i took a picture for yelp, because they were the saddest, perhaps most pathetic small lump of brown mush enclosed by a soft taco shell, and they all looked pretty much the same, with no additional things to add on top (like pickled onions/jalapenos/lettuce/etc). they tasted okay, but each one was easily consumed in 3 bites. it's kinda sad that the bar for a good mexican place in montreal is set so low. although i gotta say my partner got a sandwich, and that was better, but nothing special. the service wasn't very good, but i felt bad for the waitress because she seemed pretty worn out. needless to say, i'm not going back ! read more

I work from home a lot, so finding great lunch spots in Mile End is a favourite pastime, and Tachido is definitely on my 'repeat-visits' list. The veggie tortas are delicious, especially when paired with the daily agua fresca. And it's just as easy to eat in as it is to do take away for an outdoor lunch in summer at some of the nearby parks. A definite win for the neighbourhood, and for my lunch hour. The daily agua is a treat in and of itself - a personal favourite is the cantaloupe. Visit often so you can try lots of these daily concoctions. read more

I am Mexican and I will say these are the best "tort as" in Montreal... and believe me, I tried a lot. The place is very charming, decoration is hip, music is great and not very loud, service is friendly. The highlights: - Homemade bread - Generous portions - Nice "aguas frescas" - Delicious Margaritas I definitely recommend this place. read more

Had been wanting to try out this place for months, but since I never really go to that area, and couldn't figure out exactly what to expect in terms of size etc, I never felt like journeying specifically. Though, Thursday night I found myself nearby, so I went with a friend. The place is very small, probably about 4 tables, and a 4 seater bar area. But it is very cosy and very cute. We were sat at the bar. Menu was simple and yummy, and reasonably priced. We both had a selection of tacos, and margaritas. And everything was really yummy, and we enjoyed it, although the seating was a bit squished. The service was also great. It's a very similar vibe to Mais down on St Laurent, however, this is the lunch counterpart, where Mais is more like late night. Overall good experience, and I will certainly return if in the area and digging some tacos/margaritas. [This review was changed from a 3 to a 4 star review, because I had previously expressed annoyance that they used powder mix with the margharita, and someone contacted me to ensure me that it wasn't true, and that the powder I thought I saw was just sugar, and invited me in to see for myself.] read more

I am so stoked to have discovered this little gem of a restaurant in Mile-End. The staff are so warm and friendly and most importantly for me they have two gluten-free bread options (regular and cheese) that the father bakes himself. It's probably the best gluten-free bread I've tried to date. So far I've had three hot sandwiches there: Pulled Pork (amazing); Ham and Pineapple (filling and a great combo of salty/sweet); Chipotle Chicken (My favorite - with feta cheese. Flavourful but not too spicy). The sandwiches are really filling, sometimes I'll even share mine and still feel full. Prices are $6-$8 for the tortas, so totally worth it! Also, if you're looking for good gluten free bread you can ask to order some of their gf panini-style buns ahead. Would probably freeze well. Grab a friend and give this lovely place a shot! read more

Great spot! We had the tortas - Pierna and Cubana really amazing sandwiches. Pretty cool spot to eat outside and inside. Great customer service. read more

I love this place. The menu is fabulous and everything is delicious. The gluten-free bread here is ah-may-zing. I'm pretty sure this is one of very few places in the city that actually has consistently delicious gluten free sandwiches (tortas). This place is pretty great, but I have three gripes: 1) Winter in Canada gets me craving something warm to drink. Sure, you've got tea and coffee, but I don't always want to get caffeinated after noon. 2)Also, it would be cool if you boiled your tea water instead of microwaving it. It's kind of a no no! 3) When I order an appetizer (soup) and a sandwich, it would be nice if you could space their delivery a few minutes apart. read more

This place is fun, funky, inexpensive and the food is fresh and outstanding! Stick with the quesadillas, though, which are crafted with hand-made corn tortillas. Tacos on Friday and Saturday nights after 8PM. The sandwiches also feature a delicious home-baked bread, which is awesome, but just a little too heavy for me. If you've got Manimal hunger, you'll probably dig it. This may turn into a five with repeated visits (I have yet to try the taco). Kitsch indoor seating with a small terrace out front. Go. You'll love it. Rating Scale: 1 Star: Avoid the town in which this place is located just to be safe. 2 Star: Risky at best. 3 Star: I'll try it again or consume here in a pinch. 4 Star: I eat here regularly if financially and calorically feasible. 5 Star: I'm comfortable taking other chefs here. read more

I've been to Ta Chido 3 times since starting to work nearby and I have left happy every time. The first time I was there I had the chicken quesedillas and they were very nice. On the second and third visit I had the the pulled pork Torta sandwiches as well as the pull pork tacos and they were fantastic. The cherizo tacos are also quite nice but not as memorable as the pulled pork. Fans of mole should expect the more traditional cacao mixture rather than the "chocolaty" version some placed make. Overall this will be a go to spot for as long as I work nearby. read more

- little shop - family run - fun, comfortable interior - chill terrace (patio) - interesting music - good drinks - delicious food - salsa (hot sauce) is amazing Most people who to take pictures of food will post them on instagram or whatever, but I have a picture of Ta Chido's Aguacate Torta in a frame next to my bed. Thick avocado slices, mayo, tomato, onion, refried beans and fried mozzarella cheese on chewy, crunchy, toasted bread. I get tunnel vision when they put it in front of me. The world recedes, and it's just me and the sandwich. My heart beats faster as the scent of hot cheese reaches my face. What follows is pure indulgence: Chipotle hot sauce on one bite. Damn, that's got personality. Salsa verde on the next. Let this never end. A cascade of flavours and textures that leave you certain in the existence of a benevolent God. She smiles upon you, and you delight in her masterpiece. Having tasted Ta Chido's Aguacate Torta, it is the only food that is food. My life will never be the same. I took one star off because sometimes I really want horchata, but they don't have it. read more

Margarita wednesday is the best night of the week to visit this popular local hotspot! The margaritas are great, and only 5 dollars. They also have great taco deals on other nights of the week. The decor is vibrant and colorful, very hip. Its small inside so there might be some wait time, but service is friendly and talkative. There are a ton of gluten free options, even the tortas can be made gluten free! My favourite thing to order, is the chicken tostadas. They are heaping with fun Mexican flavours! The pulled pork tacos of juicy and delicious. There are homemade hot sauce bottle on each table, which means you can add as much or as little yummy heat to your food as you prefer. Ta Chido is a great Mexican place in a city that could use more restos like it! read more

Definitely a small hole in the wall venue but it's cheap and greasy Mexican food, what did you expect? We came here before closing time for some takeout. Service was pretty slow. One of my friends ordered crickets!! We were expecting to see the shape of a cricket (maybe a breaded cricket?) but instead she couldn't see the actual insect, just random breaded meat. The torta mole noppales was really good!!! The Hongos (a panini sandwich) was decent but it was difficult to say for sure as the toast was burnt. Soooooo -1 star for slow service and burnt toast. read more

Excellent food for an excellent price. I love Mexican food an this place blows most places out of the water. Great drinks and great service in a family run restaurant. Highly recommended. read more

Delicious, reasonably priced, and very friendly staff. Their food is traditional enough to be comfort food, and creative enough that you can have a lot of novel taste experiences. The cocktails are fantastic, and the tequila and mezcal selection is an attraction in its own right. To top it all off, the family that runs it is very sweet. Enjoy! read more

Checked this place out over the weekend. Not sure it met my expectations, but I enjoyed it. Between my girlfriend and I, we had 6 of their 8 tacos. I was relatively underwhelmed by the options that I chose, which were all meat, however my girlfriend loved the vegetarian options and really appreciated the variety that is offered. If it was just based on my tacos, I'd give it a 3, but being so vegetarian friendly is a big bonus. People working there were very friendly, I'd go back and try some other things without question. read more

The vibe in here is awesome! Got a veggie quesadilla and milkshake which were both delicious. Really pleased with the vegetarian options on the menu here! Only complaint is that the tortilla was suuuuper dry, but it was still good. read more

Beautiful and authentic Mexican food. This is some of the best food ever! The black bean soup is tasty and hearty -- ask for some of their special sesame/chilli powder to sprinkle on top in order to "kick it up a notch" as someone once was wont to say. The tacos con nopales is unlike anything I've ever tasted! Mmm, who thought a cactus could be so delicious? Mexicans -- that's who! The torta sandwiches are epic! Such freshly baked soft bread and you've never tasted tofu like this before! Tofu + molé in a sandwich with avocados and fresh cheese ¡ holy molé Batman ! you've made this vegitarian very very happy. Gracias indeed! read more

Woooow! I love their tortas! (sandwiches) I ordered a steak milanese torta and it was so damn good! Great service, great prices, and their steak milanese sandwich is sure to keep you from going hungry due to its size. You could even share it with a friend. Tried this place today for the first time and I am definitely coming back. read more

I come here all the time for their margaritas and those tasty mole tacos. I love the casual vibes and the affordable food, but you may need to wait a while for service depending on when you show up. Also their pozole (winter only) + a michelada is my personal fav. read more

Coming from LA I love trying mexican food here in montreal. Tachido had great recommendations so I had to try! Its not authentic Mexican but more like "fushion" (i hate that word but had to use it). The sandwiches are the only thing i tried. Service and decore are enjoyable. My torta was good but the toppings where very slim! read more

Totally love this friendly, family-run casual little resto on Parc Ave. The tortas are mega and the bread is fresh and the salsa and guac are just right. The decorations inside are bright and surreal, perfect for a quick inexpensive bright no stress lunch. They do a Sunday brunch, and you can get a perfect margarita here pretty much any time; the cucumber lime margarita was exceptional and just what the doctor ordered to imagine we were far from the snow on a dreary Saturday in January. And of course, as many others have mentioned, delicious homemade gluten free bread. And fish sandwiches coming soon, apparently, watchout! read more
