The good was good but the service was horrible, we had to wait an hour for our food, the staff didn't communicate anything with us about the delay.

Me and my friends waited for over an hour and just came a little piece of food. The lady that sold us, the food lied to us. The only good thing is the mojito.

Hi Cristian, we’re really sorry for your experience. That day we had a technical issue in the kitchen while implementing a new system, which caused delays and an order mix-up — that is on us. We personally came to your table to apologize and applied a discount to your bill, but we understand that this doesn’t fully make up for the experience. We take comments like yours seriously because they don’t reflect the standard we work hard to maintain every day. If you’re open to it, we would truly appreciate the chance to welcome you back and give you the experience we’re known for.

My wife and I stayed in Montreal for a time on our honeymoon and this was hands down the best food we had the entire stay. Super friendly atmosphere, and amazing food, 100% worth going

a little on the expensive side for what you get, but over all, it's ok

Hi Michael, thank you for your honest feedback 🙏 We understand your point about pricing. What we do here is a bit different from a typical taco spot — our tortillas are made in-house using the traditional nixtamalization process, which is labor-intensive and not common in Montreal. Everything is prepared fresh and in small batches, which adds time and cost, but it’s what allows us to keep the food truly authentic. That said, we appreciate your feedback and will keep working to improve the overall experience. Hope to see you again 🌮

best tacos ive had, lovely staff, got the morena platter taster with three types of tacos. If you think 27 CAD for three tacos is expensive, well it is but these aren’t ur avg tacos. Theyre massive, almost couldn’t get the last bite in. The sauces that come along with is amazing too.

The food was good and enjoyed the atmosphere but unfortunately the service was a little lacking. lack utensils, clean glasses and communication was a big deal. I ordered 3 meals and repeated myself 2 times and the cashier still managed to make only 1 meal while 3 of us are in the table…

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the food and atmosphere. We’re sorry to hear the service and communication did not meet expectations during your visit. That’s definitely not the experience we aim to deliver, and we will review this internally with the team to ensure better clarity and execution moving forward.

My friend and I arrived around 3:45 p.m. on a Sunday afternoon. The restaurant doesn’t close until about 10 p.m., which makes the service we experienced even more surprising. We were also the only clients in the restaurant. After sitting down, our waitress came over within 5–10 minutes to take our order. At that point, I hadn’t even had a chance to properly look at the menu, as I was mid-conversation. I was still going through it—especially since everything was in Spanish and I don’t speak the language, so I needed a bit more time and had a few questions. She returned less than two minutes later and seemed increasingly impatient as I asked for clarification on the menu items. Instead of helping, she walked away and came back with a sign that implied I was being disrespectful, which felt unnecessary and uncomfortable. At that point, I just pointed to the first item I saw to move things along. Unfortunately, it also ended up being quite overpriced for what it was. The food itself was decent, but the service left a lot to be desired. Overall, not an experience I’d want to repeat.

Hello, Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry that your experience did not meet your expectations. In our service culture, we tend to approach tables proactively to assist, guide, and support guests while they choose their dishes—especially when we know our cuisine may be new to some customers. We understand that everyone has their own pace when ordering, and we do our best to find a balance between being attentive and giving space. During your visit, we also offered tools such as our glossary to help with understanding the menu, and our team was available to explain each dish. We appreciate your feedback and will take it into account as we continue improving to provide a clearer and more comfortable experience for all our guests. Thank you for your visit. — Morena Mía

My boyfriend and I went to this lovely place for lunch and it was just an amazing experience all around, everyone was so helpful and wonderful to be around. I had the quesobirria tacos and almost shed a tear it was some of the best food i’ve had in my life. The margaritas are also to die for, definitely recommend!!!!!

The taste of food was almost good ( if we consider too greasy part of Mexican food culture). But it was quite expensive for the small portion. Service was slow and the waiter (waitress) was giving us attitude when we were asking a few questions on their confusing menu. It was not worth it overall.

Thank you for your feedback. Morena Mía is a traditional Mexican taquería, not a full-service restaurant. Our concept is centered around a fast-casual experience where guests order with guidance and enjoy authentic street-style food. We do provide an introduction to the menu, along with visual screens to help guests understand the different options. That said, we understand that for some, especially those new to Mexican food, the experience can feel unfamiliar at first. All of our food is prepared fresh to order, which can sometimes take a bit longer depending on the flow of service and questions during ordering. We truly appreciate you sharing your experience — feedback like this helps us keep improving how we guide our guests while staying true to our concept.

Good spot. I'm not quite fanatic of the open jar/shared spoon sauce plater set on table serving after serving. I feel it's unclean so that was a turnoff for me. Staff is kind. Not too loud. Food was good and served hot. I feel bill was way to overpriced for whst we ate. Quantities and plates are emptyish... would be nice to have a little side dish at prices they charge. Porc tacos with pineapple were my fav. Excellent taste. I would go again.

Wow… I went in to order a taco to go and basically got ignored and then was basically treated like I was a nuisance. The woman taking my order seemed so annoyed with me for asking what birra was vs suadero. She kept rushing me - it was unreal. She was like “look up at the screen, it will tell you what it is”. Umm no it’s just a close up pic. I choose my order. She tells me to sit down and she’ll bring it in 5 mins. 15 mins after sweating in there, I just got up and left and got better service elsewhere. They seemed to prefer entertaining the really obnoxious loud dudes who were there - at least they gave them service. Never going back - bad taste in my mouth.

Hi Seth, thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry your experience did not meet expectations. At Morena Mía Montreal, we work to serve all our guests as clearly and efficiently as possible, especially during busy periods. At the time of your visit, there were other customers ahead, and our team was following the order of arrival to serve everyone fairly. We also have menus and screens designed to help guide guests through options like birria and suadero. All of our food is prepared fresh to order, which can sometimes involve a short wait, especially during peak times. If there was any miscommunication or you felt rushed, that is not the experience we aim to provide.
