About

Bocadillo specializes in authentic Venezuelan cuisine defined by signature arepas and cachapas prepared with traditional corn dough. These griddle-cooked staples serve as the primary vessel for diverse fillings ranging from slow-cooked shredded beef to salty white cheeses and savory black beans. The menu emphasizes structural simplicity and bold tropical flavors inherent to Latin American culinary traditions. Patrons encounter a casual environment where the focus remains strictly on the technical preparation of grilled sandwiches and plantain-based sides. Each plate prioritizes the interplay between crisp textures and rich, savory ingredients characteristic of coastal Venezuelan street food. The establishment maintains a streamlined approach to service, ensuring that every order highlights high-quality proteins paired with fresh avocado or spicy garlic sauces. This culinary destination preserves the essence of genuine South American comfort food through focused preparation.

Review Summary

Bocadillo is widely celebrated for its authentic and delicious Venezuelan cuisine, with many diners highlighting the exceptional quality of the arepas, empanadas, and tequeños. The restaurant is frequently praised for its friendly, attentive service, welcoming atmosphere, and pleasant patio space. While the food consistently earns high marks for its fresh flavors and gluten-free options, some guests note that portions can feel small for the price, and wait times can occasionally be long during peak periods. Despite these minor criticisms, the restaurant remains a favorite destination for both locals and visitors seeking a warm, culturally rich dining experience in Montreal.

(2025) Still amazing food, slight update that I was told that Yuca fries has a small risk of cross contamination with gluten. The rest of what we ate was gluten free.

(2024) Had the Arepa with the Yuca fries (all gluten free). An unexpecting awesome combination.

Good place, good music, tasty food. But the price is just not acceptable.

56$ for two plates of arepas with 6 pieces of fried plantains & avocado crema. No drinks.

Insane pricing.

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 Arepas were very flavorful & filling, especially the ones with fresh cheese. Good recommendations from the staff & friendly service too.

Nice place, the arepa pabellon special was really filling, loved the arepa & the fries were so good! They mistakenly put avocado in one of the two & had to send it back (allergy) but was quickly replaced. Maybe a bit pricey for some options but great food.

We tried the pabellon deluxe & fried plantains. The plantains were enjoyable & perfectly ripe + sweet. The arepa itself, however, was lacking a little. The meat was well marinated but no sauce to bring other flavors. I also knock a star because it was quite pricey. The green sauce they gave on the side was mayo based & less flavorful than I've had before, plus there was no hot sauce. However there was a great atmosphere! We sat in the backyard terrasse which had lots of plants & cute tables. Fun music too! @thehungry.sheep
