Reviews paint Bocadillo as a consistently satisfying beacon of authentic Venezuelan flavors with standout arepas, pabellón, empanadas and tequeños, praised for flavorful meats, plantains and a bright, welcoming vibe. Several diners note gluten free options and attentive service, with staff listening to dietary needs and offering helpful recommendations, though one comment mentions a risk of cross contamination with gluten for Yuca fries while other dishes remain gluten free. Arepas are described as delicious and sometimes time consuming to prepare, but worth the wait; the pabellón arepa is highlighted as a favorite. The atmosphere is described as calm and charming, and the interior or location changes are mentioned as positive, with some praise for an authentic, festive feel with music. Prices are flagged as a bit high for some, making it less affordable for students, though many feel the quality justifies the cost; portions are generally satisfying though a few reviews call out smaller portions for price. Positive remarks include fast service, generous fillings, great presentation, and the chance to try a variety of Venezuelan items in one place, with several readers planning future visits when in town.

Incredible Arepas. So fresh & delicious.

I had La Llanera with potato fries. The tender, fatty, flavourful beef & homemade cheese paired so well with the fresh avocado & tomato in the corn bread were delicious. I highly recommend trying. The fries we ordered were a little small for the basket, but the basket was quite large, & I thought that was still good value. Service was personable, friendly & attentive. Atmosphere was missing a certain something in my opinion, but no real complaints. This would be my go-to lunch place every week if the it wasn't 18$ per small-medium hamburger sized portion.

The best arepas ever! This is a must stop for me anytime I'm in mtl. Arepas are made fresh & the meats are super tender, Juicy, & seasoned to perfection. Portions are solid for the price & literally everything I've tried here has been a hit. If you've never had Venezuelan food, trying bocadillos will ensure you love it! Highly Recommend!

Great gluten free options! Service can be slow, even when it's empty. But that's because everything is made fresh to order. Very filling portions for a fair price.

We were craving for some empanadas & we found this place. The food was great, the waitress & other workers were all super nice & attentive. We got our food quick. The food came hot & fresh. We had ordered some arepas, tequenos, empanadas & the steak sandwich & me & my friends really enjoyed it & we were so full. I will definitely come back with friends! The vibes were great here & the music was too 😊 Great Latino restaurant in Montreal! I recommend 100%!😋
