🌮 Tacos 101 Menu Prices Canada: Tacos
The taco lineup is simple and that is the point. Four of the six tacos sit at $7.55 flat, so you can order by craving, not by budget. The al pastor is the reason to come: pork shaved off a real spinning trompo with pineapple, onion and cilantro on double corn tortillas. I watched them carve it once and the smell alone sold me. The birria tacos at the same $7.55 with consomme are honestly the sleeper pick. And the pescado taco at $8.75, battered cod with mango pico, is the one to get when someone in your group wants fish.

Tacos 101 Menu Card Canada 2026
The Tacos 101 menu card with current prices in CAD, transcribed from the restaurant’s official current menu and live delivery listing.
One honest note on this card. Tacos 101 has no standalone website, just a Facebook page and delivery-app listings. The only menu-board photos I could find online were from the old Yonge-and-Dundas location that closed in 2018, so a photo card was out of the question. This is a clean transcription of their current official menu, checked today. Every price matches what they publish right now.
Tacos 101 Al Pastor Tacos Canada
Al pastor shaved off the trompo at Tacos 101, $7.55 per taco on double corn tortillas.
Is the al pastor worth the hype? Yes, at $7.55 it is one of the cheapest proper street tacos in downtown Toronto. The pineapple-charred edges are the whole point. But here is the thing: get the birria too. Consomme on the side, crispy edges, $7.55. That is the combo I would order again. For a different take on Canadian al pastor, TacoTime Canada’s menu prices show what a bigger national chain charges for its version, though it is a very different style of taqueria.
🌯 Tacos 101 Tamales and Specials Prices
The tamales are all $6.00, which makes the decision easy. The rajas con queso, peppers and cheese, is the vegetarian winner. The specials are the fun part of the menu: birria-quiles at $14.60 is corn chips drowned in birria consomme with melted cheese, and the birria ramen at $22.30 is the most expensive single item on the menu and, frankly, the messiest. In my opinion the birria-quiles is the better buy. More flavour, less fuss.
| Item | Details | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Green Salsa Tamale | With chicken, $6.00 each | $6.00 |
| Red Salsa Tamale | With chicken, $6.00 each | $6.00 |

| Birria Ramen | Large | $22.30 |
🥑 Tacos 101 Sides and Drinks Prices
The sides are straightforward. Guac and chips at $5.70 is the one I would not skip. Four ounces of guac sounds small until you taste it. Salsa and chips at $4.50 is the budget move, and honestly the salsas are good enough to carry a bag of chips on their own. On the drinks side, the aguas frescas at $6.95 are the pick. Horchata, jamaica or mango, 24 ounces. The Jarritos, Topo Chico and Boing are all $4.90, and the Mexican Coca Cola is $5.50.

The tosti-esquites at $18.10 is the splurge, esquites piled onto Tostitos. I could not confirm whether every Fruta Libre snack is available on every visit, the snack board rotates, so check the counter before your heart gets set on one.
