First time visiting with my best friend. We received great recommendations from our server. The Dirty Horchata drink was the right amount of sweetness. The small guac was great to share. The chips were perfectly salted. My chicken tacos were very filling & full of flavour. The staff was aware that a thunderstorm was rolling in since we were sitting on the terrasse. They perfectly guided us & helped transfer our plates inside so the transition was very smooth. Highly recommend!
Honestly very disappointing evening & kick-off to terrace season. It took an hour to get drinks, longer to get our nachos & food. No updates from the staff. No real attempt to make us feel like values customers. Upset because I brought a friend here after having two positive experiences & she's turned off now. Quite frankly, so am I.
We had a great dinner here! We tasted the nacho plate & it was fresh & delicious! Then 3 different taco plates. Tacos Birria & they were mouth watering!! The pork pineapple tacos were fantastic & spicy!! Last the shredded chicken tacos were tasty !Great atmosphere, fantastic ,tasty drinks & good food!! Will go back in the summer for the back terrasse!
Delicious tacos, but not worth the 2+ hour wait. (Not to be seated, that was fairly quick based off of the size of the line) We got seated around 9pm, our order was taken very shortly after that but it took 45 minutes for our drink order to come, another 15 minutes for my friends food to come, mine came 20 minutes later & our mistakenly ordered last dish came almost 10min later. We had asked for a box to take the extra food home & the bill but that took another 25 minutes & two different servers... eventually a different server got us the box & told us that we have to go to the front to pay... right as the table behind us was paying at their table. I felt like we were forgotten, we never got water refills, had to ask for napkins, & especially since the three tables around us were seated afterwards & were finished eating before we got our food.

Super belle ambiance, très coloré, bien decoré. La nourriture est très bonne. Le staff est accueillant. Il y a quand même un bon nombre de choix dans le menu & le bar est quand même très varié. Les drinks sont beau & savoureux. J'ai bien aimé ma soirée. En bref, du bon monde qui offre de la bonne bouffe dans une belle place. Ça vaut la peine, bon appétit !
This is my first time at Arriba Burrito. & it will definitely not be the last. The drinks are to die for, i ordered a strawberry daiquiri & it was delicious. The ceviche is very tasty. I think this is my new to go resto bar if I want to have Mexican food.
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.
Best authentic Mexican food in Montreal! I'm from US & I can tell you the food it's so goood! I recommend everyone to go there ! Even if drinks are so good ! I had the special passion magarita!

We had amazing time in this beautiful Mexican restaurant. Interesting decor with delicious food & good drinks. Even though it was crowded we felt ourselves very comfortable & enjoyed every minute there. Nice service & good atmosphere especially if you sitting on the patio.
Nice atmosphere, delicious food & drinks! We had the nachos, burrito, tacos, chimichanga & the quesadilla - all with different meats & all were delish! Drinks were fantastic - right balance of flavor & alcohol & fresh ingredients. The servers were attentive, fairly prompt, & refilled our water regularly. We would go there again :) In terms of value - the drinks & entrees were priced appropriately for a nice Mexican restaurant ($15CAD -$25CAD), though the nachos were overpriced as an appetizer & the amount served ($27 CAD).
Tried Arriba Burrito for dinner The interior is so cool. Very colorful & well decorated. We tried many items & everything was delicious. Its the best Mexican restaurant in Montreal! Im so in love with their Nachos & Birria Tacos! The fajitas were delicious as well. They have fresh drinks. I ordered the carajillo & loved it. They use high quality ingredients. Big portions & very cool presentation. Very Friendly staff ! Fair prices! Highly recommended. 5/5 Follow @ayahayek_ for more on instagram
Great place will definitely be going back! The food was delicious, I also got the drink of the day which was so good, like same quality as a good cocktail ba
1st time eating here & won't be the last! Good music, nice decor, great employees & the food was highly flavourful with generous portions. Drinks were perfect. The manager Karan was a great host. Made you feel right at home by having a great conversation with us. The tacos were an absolute hit. They tasted amazing so as the burrito. Hard to find places that appreciate their customers nowadays. Makes you happy to spend your hard earned money somewhere you feel appreciated! Mtl restaurants take note plz! Can't wait to see what the vibe will be to eat on their terrace this upcoming summer! Wish we could give them more stars!
