The food & uplifting ambiance is better than ever! Authentic Mexican dishes (I love the tacos Al Pastor,) friendly service, & awesome guacamole with homemade tortilla chips! If you want the best Mexican food in Montreal, Ameranto's is the place to be.
Tiny portions. The tacos are mini. Food is ok, not wow. Not worth it for the price.
Arrived at 6pm with tickets to a show upstairs at Sala Rossa at 8pm. We ordered promptly but food didn't arrive until 7:45pm! We had to chase the waitress to find out what was going on. No explanations, no apologies. We were told that we could bring food upstairs, but as it was General Admission & no tables, that was completely unfeasible. The people who arrived just after us ended up cancelling their orders as they wouldn't get their food in time!
Food was flavorful though slightly underwhelming. They were out of fish, so I had the brisket soft tacos. Be aware that any sides must be ordered separately as there is not even lettuce on the plate.
The room is extremely loud (weird acoustics) & I had difficulty hearing the person talking across the table from me.
My suggestion is that the restaurant should'staff up' on concert nights. From other reviews it sounds like people have had a better experience.
I recommend going to amaranto for authentic mexican cuisine & some very good margaritas!
The staff is very friendly & generous!
Food is very normal, I wouldn't say the restaurant is bad, but food lacks a bit of flavor & the portions are very small for the cost of the dishes. Not a bad option for people who want to explore Mexican food in Montreal, but not my favorite.
The food here is unreasonably delicious. Everything tasted fresh & had many layers of flavor. The person who helped us was friendly, knowledgeable, & warm.
Très bon restaurant pour sa nourriture, l'ambiance n'est pas au rendez-vous mais c'était super:) je recommande
Don't let the tacky design fool you - this is incredible service food & the spicy Margherita is PERFECT !
Still the best authentic Mexican food not only in Montreal but all of Canada!
