The menu features generously filled flour tortillas packed with slow-cooked proteins, zesty salsas, and seasoned grains tailored for a casual, fast-paced culinary environment.

Every order emphasizes speed and flavor consistency, ensuring that each component from the guacamole to the beans remains distinct.

Arriba Burrito offers an authentic Mexican culinary experience that many diners find both delicious and generous, with standout items like birria tacos, nachos, and crème brûlée pancakes frequently praised for their quality and presentation. While the vibrant atmosphere, thoughtful decor, and friendly staff contribute to a memorable visit, experiences with service consistency and seating comfort vary significantly. Some patrons appreciate the attentive care and welcoming vibe, often highlighting specific servers who enhance the experience, while others note challenges such as long wait times, occasional errors in order delivery, and cramped seating arrangements. Although the price point is reflective of the portion sizes and quality for many, others find it somewhat high, and views on the necessity of reservations or the intensity of the music differ, making it a popular yet polarising destination in Montreal.
If you're looking for a halal-friendly brunch spot… this one is SUCH a good find 🤭🌮✨
The pancakes??? Absolutely insaneeee. Soft, fluffy, flavorful - easily the highlight for me 😭🫶🏼
The whole vibe & food were really good, especially knowing the menu is halal-friendly 🙌🏼
Only thing I'd say: the drinks were a little too sweet for my taste, but still cute & refreshing!
Definitely worth trying if you love Mexican brunch spots in Montreal 🌞
Food was amazing! We started off by having the nachos & guacamole then for our main dish we had the 3 tacos birria, french toast with ice cream & crème brûlée pancakes. The pancakes was pretty big so it would be enough for one person or to share among each other.
Overall, the staffs were very friendly & nice. They accommodate to all customers with respect! For sure will come back !

The restaurant itself is cool. Authentic Mexican with dark interior, loud music. It was crowded & seating was Very tight squeeze. The birria taco was the star of this meal, the flambe pancake was fun & very'social media' forward, but wasn't very tasty. The staff were nice but when it came to settling the bill, they took entirely too long. Overall, it's a fun, trendy spot thats great for younger crowd & we're glad we got to experience it.
Très bonne expérience pour le brunch un dimanche.
Violeta est adorable & réactive. Merci à elle pour le bon service !
Je recommande le latte biscuit, les pancakes crème brûlée & porc ananas !
Went for their brunch around 11:15am, & picked the seat in the back with glass roof, which was quite a nice spot
Had the cookie latte, which was surprisingly good, not too sweet & had the perfect cookie taste 😊
For the main, the taco birria was amazing, the meant & the cheese pull with the dipping sauce is must try 😋 made me decide to come back for their dinner taco next time
& the famous melted crème brûlée is everything
At the beginning I thought it would be too much, but turns out the flavour is just the perfect sweet brunch😊?portion is big enough for 2 ppl to share )
Service was a bit slow, maybe too many ppl ordered the famous pancake 😂but the waitress came over to apologize
Overall was a great spot to check it out 😌
This is such an airy light filled space with cute decorations. We ordered a cookie latte, a chocolate abuelita, enchiladas rojas with chicken, huevos divorciados & creme brulee pancakes. They blowtorch the creme brulee pancakes right in front of you & it's so fun.w Everything was so fresh & delicious. Service was super friendly. Would highly recommend for brunch!
Its a very festive spot for brunch. There was a DJ blasting Latino music. Its loud be warned. The food was good. I like the savory dishes over the creme brulée pancakes. The cocktails were pretty dope.
The dishes here are delicious! I went with a friend & we split the birria tacos & dulce de leche pancakes, both of which were 10/10. The tacos were super juicy & came with a delicious guacamole. They also didn't shy away from putting lots of fresh berries on the pancakes, & the dulce de leche was to die for (& I'm saying this as a Latin American!)
The staff were super friendly & patient, & our orders came very fast! The only cons are that it's a bit too hot at the restaurant (I think it's an air circulation issue) & the drinks weren't anything special - & considering the price we paid, I expected a bit more. For context, I had an iced latte & my friend had a juice. But the decor is beautiful nonetheless & the dishes make it worth checking out!
