I loved their tacos but the highlight of the lunch was this giant margarita. Music was fun and the waitress was lovely

I ate there this week. First impressions when walking in was the smell in there. It was not good, but I had decided to eat there and looking at the positive reviews on here I went ahead. I was surprised that they have a table service since I was more expecting ordering at the counter, and maybe it was because this place used to be a Subway. I got the seat I asked for since it was not busy. Service was not attentive, but at the same time nothing I can complain about. I ordered the chicken burrito. It didn't take too long to be served, but what a disappointment. It was basically a rice filled tortilla with few small pieces of chicken and some cheese. They definitely try to make it look nice with some freshly fried tortilla chips, guacamole and pico de gallo which was served on the plate. Lathered in sour cream and some mayo sauce didn't help. The best part of the plate was the guacamole. Table was not cleared when I finished eating and asked to pay. I could also see that when the waiter cleared the tables around me after other customers that he didn't clean it with any product, just replaced the cutlery with clean glasses and pushed whatever was left on the table on to the floor with his fingers. I'm happy to see a restaurant in my neighbourhood being replaced by a chain like Subway which I don't want in my area, but I will never go to this place again.

Went for the all you can eat tacos. Ordered the chorizo on my first order and beef-chorizo. The waiter didn't tell us they ran out of beef and just turned up with only chorizo tacos. Only on our second round were we told they had no beef left. First round of tacos were cold. Tacos come with zero garnishes, veggie tacos are just mushrooms and onions. Very average. Servers also sat us, then sat the table behind us and served them first. We also heard them complain about the lack of beef. Also warning for anyone wanting the all-you-can-eat, you need to order 6 tacos at a time and they charge $3.50 per taco uneaten so if you only want to eat one round of tacos, very not worth it..... Cute spot but super average experience.

AYCE tacos on Tuesday/Wednesday is definitely worth it. Service was excellent. Atmosphere = great! Highly recommend asking them about the snacks they have on display.

The location is charming, the atmosphere is welcoming, and the food is so good I ordered a second main after I finished the first. Get the Taco Birya -you won't be disappointed!

Listen, for $25 on a Tuesday, L’Estancia lets you eat unlimited tacos like it’s a personal challenge between you and the French gringos from the Plateau. The tacos themselves are okay. Nothing that’ll make your abuela cry tears of joy. A very honorable middle ground. The food does exactly what it promises, and it promises volume. But let’s talk about the real MVP: the drinks. Whatever they’re doing behind that bar deserves its own Yelp page.

I firmly discourage you to go! Beware!! Both of my friends ordered the all you can eat chicken tacos. Both of them felt sick after eating their plate I believe the chicken was undercooked as it had no firmness to itself. One of my friends vomitted in front of the restaurant because of how sick she was. We had to exit the restaurant fast because of how sick they felt and how hot the store is (everyone is very close to each other, no circulation of air) After explaining the situation to multiple servers, we received no compensation or even empathy. They refused to assume accountability when they both felt great coming in the restaurant and felt sick after eating their chicken. Lucky for me I had ordered a different thing. Or was I lucky? The side of chips that is supposed to be complimentary to your 22$ 3 tacos plate is basically 8 chips as you can see in the picture. Very poor service (no water served before asking mid dinner, no sauces on table before asking) Anyways, asking clients that just threw up your whole food in front of the place to pay is honestly ridiculous. Also, we called to make a reservation days before, they told us it wasn’t needed because they’ll have place and we ended up waiting 20 minutes in a cramp place where everyone goes in and out and servers passes so you got a squeeze in left and right for a good 20 minutes to be seated. Good luck!

We went specifically dor the all you can eat tacos and the 7$ margaritas. Some of the freshest food I've eaten and tasty ! My personal favorite is chorizo tacos, but their mushrooms one are great. Will return and not only for the AYCE formula.
