Review Summary

Bocadillo Bistro is widely celebrated for its vibrant atmosphere, authentic Venezuelan cuisine, and regular live music performances that create a lively and welcoming environment for guests. While many reviewers praise the flavor and quality of dishes like arepas and cachapas, some patrons note that portions can feel small relative to the price. Experiences with service are varied; many diners highlight the friendliness and kindness of the staff and owners, although others report occasional inconsistencies or delays during busy evenings. Despite mixed feedback regarding pricing and service speed, the restaurant remains a popular destination for those seeking a festive night out with great entertainment and a cozy, home-like vibe.

Excellent restaurant cusine Venezuelienne La nourriture est incroyable nous avons eu la chance de goûter un peu de tout sur le menu & tout y est excellent. Que ce soit le Ceviche De Camarone Empanadas de Requins Tequenos De Queso ou La Parrilla Mixta Tout était succulent. Le prix pour certain éléments selon moi est élevé exemple 4 Tequenos pour 18$ ce qui reviens a 4.50$/ chaque je trouve un peu dispendieux mais le goût en vaut le prix. Ambiance excellente spectacle live du Jeudi au Samedi & vous aurez la possibilité d'aller pratiquer votre Danse Salsa sur la piste de danse. Beau choix de variété d'alcool par contre il vous sera plus rentable si vous pensez consommer plusieurs "drinks" de prendre une bouteille 26 oz. La moyenne des drinks sont de 16$ a 18$ donc vous comprendrez que si vous êtes plusieurs la bouteille va etre votre meilleure option. Nous avons optez pour la Havana Club 3 ans à 130$ pour 26oz & c'était parfait. Propriétaire très sympathique qui est venu nous rencontrer à la fin de la soirée pour avoir des come back & se présenter. Vraiment une excellente soirée au Bocadillo sur Saint-Laurent à Montréal

Lors de notre arrivée, nous avons été très mal reçus. Une dame ( qui ne semble point la gérante/propriétaire) nous a refusé l'accès à une table prétextant une soirée caritative. Nous n'avons pu entrer & l'hôtesse n'a pas été en mesure de mettre son pied à terre (auprès de l'autre cliente) afin de nous offrir une table. Il est essentiel d'informer vos clients s'il y a une soirée ou un évènement prévu (non ouvert) au public. La dame a été très désagréable, celle-ci n'a fait preuve d'aucune ouverture... pourtant celle-ci n'est point la gérante du restaurant. Je n'ai absolument pas compris son raisonnement. Très déçue, je ne reviendrai point essayer votre établissement.

At Bocadillo Bistro, the shrimp ceviche is a standout-fresh, zesty, & perfectly seasoned. Coupled with live flamenco dance performances, the vibrant atmosphere elevates the dining experience. Plus, the prices are very reasonable. A must-visit for a delightful evening!

Charming little place with a nice patio at the back. The sandwiches are average & the price is steep for the portions. The fried yuca was very good. Service also very good.

Looking for a place to eat after attending a book launch, my partner & I decided to try this place since we were getting cold walking outside & I had never had Venezuelan food. We ordered 2 arepas & 2 drinks. My drink was a passionfruit juice which tasted like Oasis juice (7$). The staff was friendly & I had the opportunity to practice my Spanish. There was live music provided by a singer & a guitarist. We both quite enjoyed the experience. When the bill came, I was distracted possibly because I was trying to converse in Spanish so I solely focused on the subtotal to calculate the total. I paid 108$ (which includes tax & tip). We left & while I was walking towards the metro station, it occurred to me that the total seemed off since the price for an arepas was around 25$ & a drink around 7$. I returned to the restaurant & saw the waitress & asked if I could see the bill (I had not asked for it after I paid). She asked if there was something wrong or what did I want to see. I responded that I think a mistake was made since I paid 108$ our order could not add up to that total. She said that it is because there is a cover charge of 10$ person (for the live music) & on nights when there is dancing (salsa I believe) the charge is 25$. The cover charge was never mentioned when we initially entered the restaurant or at any other moment during our meal. I find this rather dishonest & it soured my whole experience of the night which is why I am leaving an unfavorable review.
