Lower cost

Off my radar, on my list.

1. Where is it and what’s the vibe?

If you’re in the Vaudreuil-Dorion area, Sushi Hinata is a solid option for affordable all-you-can-eat sushi. It’s located on Boulevard de la Cité des Jeunes and is especially popular with students. The ordering is done through your phone or a tablet, and a little robot even helps deliver the food—which makes the experience fun and unique.

2. What’s on the menu?

The menu covers all the essentials: sushi, sashimi, ramen, and tempura. They also have some fusion dishes like General Tao chicken. Plus, it’s BYOB (bring your own drinks), which definitely helps keep the cost down.

3. Is it worth the price?

Lunch usually costs around $16, while dinner is a bit more. For the price, the quality is decent and the variety is great. Service can get a little slow when it’s busy, but overall, it’s a good spot for a casual meal with friends on a budget.

Tacos, done right.

“I really appreciate this place. Their food makes me feel like home.”

1. Where is it?

Tacos Victor is located on Notre-Dame Street West, and it’s one of those spots you don’t want to miss if you’re exploring good eats in Montreal.

2. What’s on the menu?

The star of the show is, of course, their tacos—like carne asada and braised beef—each topped with their signature crispy grilled cheese. The menu also includes fresh sides like guacamole and pico de gallo, plus a lineup of house-made salsas that range from mild to fiery.

3. Any must-tries?

And finally, If you’re craving something sweet, then I’d recommend getting their churros. They come out warm and crunchy with just the right amount of sugar, and a cold horchata on the side. To drink, they’ve got traditional options like horchata, which is sweet, refreshing, and honestly balances the spice and richness of the food really well. Altogether, the mix of tacos, sides, and sweets makes Tacos Victor feel like more than just a quick bite—it’s the kind of spot where you can relax, and enjoy the whole experience with friends.
