Arriba Burrito comes across as a lively, welcoming Mexican spot with bold flavors and a festive vibe. Reviews highlight standout dishes like birria and ribeye tacos, tacos al pastor, nachos, fajitas, enchiladas, and crowd pleasers on brunch such as French toast, creme brulee pancakes, churros, and a cookie latte, with cocktails and unlimited mimosas adding to the fun. The atmosphere is repeatedly described as energetic and convivial, sometimes electric and loud with a DJ, which many diners enjoy for a social night out but can be a challenge for conversation and seating, as the space is often crowded and tables close together. Service is generally friendly and attentive, with generous portions and fresh flavors, yet several experiences mention slow or inconsistent service, missed or delayed items, and some communication mishaps during busy times. Several reviews praise the staff and the management for personal touches and helpful recommendations, though a few note price at the higher end and occasional variation in value depending on the dish or time. Overall, Arriba Burrito is seen as a solid go to for authentic Mexican fare with big portions and big energy, worth a visit for brunch or a night out, with many expressing intention to return to try different dishes or to celebrate a special occasion.

Food was okay, bland, & lacking in authentic flavor. The server that we got didn't speak any French or English & had a lot of confusion with what we were asking & what he was understanding. Bathrooms are dirty & no one bothered to clean it for the 1 hour we were there. To top it off, the waiters will shamelessly complain about their tips. They expect to get 15% tips after: 1) They don't even understand English or French & needs to keep asking someone else to translate. 2) We needed to ask 3 times for hot sauce 3) Toilets are disgusting 4) We wanted to order more drinks but the server didn't even come back to ask us despite giving us the menus again 5) Serving our appetizers with main course together. Note to the team: 15% Tip is not a law. It is a recommendation. You earn this when you give good service, not for just writing what I say on a paper & giving me a plate to eat from.

I haven't tried a lot of mexican places,but Arriba Burrito is definitely a must try in Montreal! Portions were large & the taste was authentic. Only complaint was about the waiting time & slow service, however a place as good as this is supposed to be crowded! Would definitely visit again:))

Just finished an amazing meal of tacos, burritos & Margaritas on a beautiful Saturday afternoon & I think anyone in Montreal needs to visit this place. As authentic as could be & our server was so, so friendly & informative. The chef is from a small Mexican village so the food was SPECTACULAR!! Highly recommend
