Amaranto earns high marks for authentic Mexican flavors and generous portions, with standout dishes including birria tacos, tacos al pastor, fish tacos, shrimp quesadilla, ceviche, and guacamole with homemade chips, complemented by refreshing horchata and satisfying churros; the atmosphere is described as warm, welcoming, and not too noisy, with fast, friendly service and a family owned vibe that many reviewers say makes them feel at home; margaritas are noted as effective, and overall the restaurant is considered excellent value and a reliable choice for delicious, well prepared Mexican food, though a few comments mention a door handle that could use fixing and some portions being small for the price.

We went to this restaurant at 1pm, a groupe of 6. They brought the salsa & tomatillo salsa to the table, then brought the nachos to nibble on before ordering. The waitress took our orders & they had a lunch special which consists of either Guacamole or pico de gallo with nachos as an entrée with our meal, in addition to 1 Churro at the end for dessert. The ambiance is good, not noisy. The food was very good, typical of good quality food as in Mexico. The Birria tacos was so delicious! 3 tacos & I could only eat 2, very filling & lots of meat, slightly good spicy. The Tacos al pastor & the fish tacos were very good also. Tacos with cactus leaves also good. The horchata was good & refreshing. The pico de gallo was delicious with plenty fresh cilantro. The churro was good, but not fully fried, the inside was still not fully cooked. We will definitely return soon to try other choices. Good typical Mexican food. The only thing I have to mention is the black door, the entrance from the street to the restaurant. There is a black door & on it is written 5626 which is the address of the restaurant. It is very hard to pull & open that door! When I arrived, I tried to open it, there is no good grip on it to pull. For an instant, I thought this is not the entrance & I was going to leave. I waited till someone came out of that door so I entered. My friends had the same experience trying to open that door. I had to go myself to the door & opened it so they could enter!
To the Owner: please fix that door handle or change the handle to have a good grip to be able to pull it open to enter the restaurant.

Went last-minute for dinner last night. Amazing! We had the birria tacos, guacamole with their homemade tortilla chips, & ceviche. All were extraordinarily good, & the prices are low. Also had their Chia lemonade. Best Mexican food I've had in Montreal, & really lovely people running the place as well. Highly recommended!

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.
