"Con Mi Taco started out as an occasional pop-up before pivoting to takeout taco party kits, and now is a more permanent concept operating inside Meat and Bread after the shop’s daytime hours. Often touted as the best spot in the city for tacos, Con Mi pulls in crowds with its birria short rib tacos. Now that it’s found a home in downtown Calgary, the little taqueria that could also serves fun drinks, like horchata and tamarind margaritas. [$-$$]" - Dan Clapson

"“When people ask where I go for Mexican food,” says Mexico-born Daniel Ramon, speaking about his adopted hometown of Calgary, “I’d say, ‘I don’t!’” Until he tried the tacos Mikko Tamarra was serving from a pop-up at a Beltline cocktail bar. The two became friends, and when the pandemic temporarily put them out of work, they joined forces with a third chef, Andrew Ocasion, to launch Con Mi Taco in July 2020."

This is a cool and fun place to go eat. The food was awesome! The portions were good, we ordered dinner for two for $65. Horchata was delicious! The dessert is super fun and not overly sweet. I’m deducting a star because the guacamole was average, pretty much just onions and avocado, and the flavours themselves weren’t super bold, not spicy and not sweet. Was still good but not super flavourful! It’s also not authentic tacos (which was is still good)! But the shells have a fried dough (paratha) texture as opposed to corn or flour tortillas.

If you are thinking about grabbing tacos here, stop thinking and eat here. Seriously the best and most authentic Mexican food in Calgary. Further than that this is the best Mexican food I’ve had outside of Mexico and a maybe a couple places in the S.W. US. The flavours are so on point and well balanced and the food is served with passion and a smile. The spice profile is well balanced. The ingredients are considered from top to bottom. We have tried a bit of everything at this point and I can’t recommend this place enough. Do yourself a favour and grab some food from here.

We have been searching for good Latino food in Calgary and it seems Con Mi Taco is the place to go. This pop up restaurant utilizes the Meat and Bread location in the evenings wheneat and Bread isn't open. Having tried other Mexican restaurants, we were concerned with the reliance on sauces. Not the case here. Each taco is packed with flavor and did not need help from sauces. ConMi Taco was also more generous with meats. The fish taco was sizeable and combined both flavor and texture for a delicious punch. No wonder this sells out often. Don't order too late or you'll miss out on one of the best fish tacos around. The Al Pastor Taco was recommended as the restaurant's most popular item. No wonder given how nice the pineapples balance out the overall taco. Birria Taco was another favorite per the staff. It's not our favorite but it's delicious. I also wanted to try the Chorizo Con Papa Taco which is again good but not as good as Al Pastor and Fish Tacos. We also picked up churro which is as good as any churro in town. The Tres Leche is essentially a donut which the kids devoured. Definitely need to come back to try the other dishes. Of course, we will never skip ordering at least the Al Pastor and Fish Tacos.

All hits no misses over at ConMi. Great value for the tacos here. Friendly and attentive staff. Had the Lengua, Korean Fish and QuesaBirria with Consumme. All three tacos had great flavour profiles that paired well with the three sauces they had in house. My favourite was the Korean fish. Very unique taco offering with a best of both worlds Korean and Mexican flavour pairing. The ceviche was bright and fresh with tons of shrimp and scallops to give you the fresh from the sea taste. Can’t recommend it enough here

@conmitaco has become a fav #yycrestaurant of ours, and when Quin, being Malaysian born, heard their featured taco was Malaysian Soy Chicken, we had to try it before it was gone. The bed of coconut rice was the perfect backdrop for the chicken, but it was their house-made sambal belacan that transported us to the hawker stalls of KL. It was our first time dining in, and when we saw #ceviche on the menu, we had to try it! The first bite took us back to Peru where we first fell in love with all-things ceviche. Replacing the hard-to-find Peruvian corn with peanuts added a creative twist while staying true to its roots. Or course their Mexican tacos were delicious as always, but what was so surprising was how this wonderful, authentic meal could bring us around the world ... a much needed vacation of the mind during these crazy times. #notsponsored WHAT WE ATE: Ceviche: Bay scallops, poached shrimp, peanut salsa, cucumber, sesame tostada Chilaquiles (aka Nachos): Chicken tinga, salsa enchilada, onion, crema Featured Taco: Malaysian Soy Chicken Soy and pandan roasted chicken, coconut rice, housemade malaysian sambal (belacan, dried shrimp and guajillo chillies), roasted peanuts, cucumber Other Tacos: Al Pastor: chili braised pork, pineapple, onion, cilantro Birria: child braised beef, mozzarella cheese, onion, cilantro, dipping broth Chicharron: braised chicharron, guajilo salsa, onion, cilantro avocado, crisp crackling

I'm an eclectic foodie but surely a taco 🌮Belle🤭 so I came with a friend to try what's in their menu and as usual it's a cool place. Been here many times for lunch it's inside Meat and Bread. Downside is that, the exhaust suction may not be pulling air out, the smell sticks in your clothes when you go out but in total, a good place. We had ConMi Guac which has mix of 2 house made chips according to menu, Al Pastor and Birria taco, Shrimp Gobernador, and Chef Choice which was Cod taco. Had classic and passion fruit margarita. Oh yeah! I'm picky when it comes to lemon and limes and want it freshly cut to my drinks not a pre-cut which looks dry out and they have all fresh, Not all does it!

We had the most amazing experience at Con Mi Taco. Enjoyed the surprise of having the chef choose our entire meal. From beginning to end it was a fantastic dinner out. And the service was amazing.

The Birria and Al Pastor tacos are absolutely delicious. The two person taco dinner for $50 is a great deal on Tuesday’s and Thursday’s, you get 5 tacos person and it’s definitely filling. The Tocino and Shrimp were not my personal favourites, still had good a depth of flavour. The salsas you get on the side are so delicious, my favourite was the mango habanero. Would absolutely recommend this place - the vibe; the food; the service, all of it was top notch.

Wow this is a hidden gem. We are visiting and loved the tacos! So full of flavor and delicious. The Al pastor are incredible and corn esquites amazing!! The service is great and friendly. The side salsas were full of bold flavors without being too spicy. Highly recommend.

What an amazing find! Just out for a walk after a busy day of meetings, and I stumble upon a taco pop-up. Had to go in. I got the birria taco and the chips with guacamole. What an amazing meal. Tasty salsas too. Service was friendly and helpful. Atmosphere was energetic. A great Calgary experience.

Wow! These were really good tacos. (Review by my husband) We started ordering their taco kits when they were selling them out of Shelter. Those were good, but you could only buy one type of tacos once every couple of weeks, and that's if they didn't sell out first. When we found out that they opened the pop-up shop at Bread and Meat we immediately made a reservation. Who knew being able to try many different tacos at once was a game changer!? (I did) We never had their flour tortillas before, and they were so spongy and chewy, I honestly could eat them with just salt and pepper (apparently these were made with duck fat). We tried cochinita pibil, chile relleno, and these were both good (birria, which we've had before, were also delicious), but the star of the show was the asada. I typically avoid steak tacos since they inevitably disappoint when compared to what we get from wife's hometown in Norte de Mexico, but these asadas, made from chuck flats, were seriously good. Such a simple taco--salty asada, guac, and chewy tortilla--but so, So good. So good, we made reservations for the following week, in the middle of our meal. We'll be back!

Shrimp and Scallop Ceviche ($16), Al Pastor Kit ($33), Passion Fruit Cream Churro ($6). I loved the ceviche. The shrimp was crunchy and plump. The scallops were succulent, silky morsels. The amount of lime was perfect, there was just enough acidity that it didn't overwhelm the natural sweetness of the seafood. The peanuts added a nice clean crunch and it reminded me of corn nibs. I thought the strong melon flavour of the cucumbers complemented the peanuts and seafood. The Al Pastor Kit comes with 2/3 pound of pineapple chili marinated pork, ten freshly ground hand-pressed corn tortillas, lime wedges, onions, pineapple, cilantro, salsa morita and vegan jalapeño aioli. The texture of the pork was velvety with a smoky flavour. I loved the fragrance of the corn tortillas. Con Mi finely minces the cilantro, so the flavour is more delicate. The Passion Fruit Cream Churro is a must order. The churro itself was sweet and crunchy, and tasted a little like apple pie. The passion fruit cream was fragrant and perfumed with citrus.

The seafood taco has the most delicately and beautifully cooked shrimp. The dipping broth for the birria taco is so, so good. Service was impeccable, our server was very knowledgeable and so nice. Recommend the tamarind margarita, the guacamole and of course the tacos!

I bought a package thru Amex. Followed the protocol and sent CMT an email to place the order. No response. Phoned them a day later. They said oops we haven't checked our emails and we're rescheduling those packages anyway. We might be able to help you in a weeks time. Not sure. A waste of time and energy. Ended up having to call Amex and dispute the charge. CMT shouldn't be in business and likely won't be for long. Spoke with Andrew at CMT and he could care less.. Zero stars
