Review Summary

Amaranto is highly regarded for serving authentic and delicious Mexican cuisine, with the birria tacos frequently highlighted as a standout favorite. Guests consistently praise the friendly and welcoming staff, the vibrant atmosphere, and the quality of their homemade chips, salsa, and margaritas. While most diners find the portions generous and the lunch specials excellent value, a few patrons felt the pricing was high for the amount provided. The restaurant is celebrated as a local gem, though visitors should note that reservations are recommended due to its popularity and some minor difficulty with the entrance door handle.

I've been going here ever since they opened 15+ years ago in a location further west. We used to bring our babies & the owners would cook meals especially for them. When they moved, we were heartbroken. So glad they are back! They still remember our boys & the boys love the food here. Everything on the menu is authentic, & delicious. One of our all time favourite restaurants.

A super authentic Mexican gem. Everyone working was warm & welcoming. The food is excellent. No matter what you get, you won't be disappointed. We had the shrimp quesadilla, the birria tacos, fish tacos, & the chicken tacos. Everything was a 10/10.

Super authentic Mexican spot, with lovely owners & amazing food. They are so hospitable & are experts at what they do. Star of the show are the birria tacos, but nothing you get will disappoint.

Found this place randomly walking on Monkland & it was amazing. It's a family run mexican restaurant that has really authentic foods.

We ordered the guacamole with homemade chips, esquites & tamales. Everything was super flavorful & seasoned well. The portions are generous & the dishes are cooked well. You can tell they know what they are doing for sure. The owners are also very friendly & explained the menu thoroughly.

If you like authentic mexican food & rich flavours, definitely visit them.
