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.
Honestly this was a 10/10 experience. Every dish was super tasty & big portions. I wish I took a pic before but the plates speak volumes. Service was fast & nice.
The margs are also effective lol. They got me good.
Amazing! The best Mexican restaurant in town. The food is amazing. My husband & I had the chicken enchiladas, the birria tacos, & the refried beans & they were delicious. The staff & owners are super kind & welcoming. The restaurant is clean, comfortable with a vibrant decor. We are so happy that they came back to Monkland!!!
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.
Great experience. We visited because the decor caught our eye when we were walking by. Service team was helpful & attentive. We felt the portions were generous & I liked the food. I recommend the ceviche!
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.
Went here with family & had a fantastic experience. The atmosphere was warm, cozy, & welcoming, perfect for a meal out. The owner & staff were incredibly friendly, kind, & efficient, & even gave us great meal recommendations. The food was delicious & exceeded our expectations. Would definitely go back! Highly recommend!
