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.

I really love Bocadillo, I've been loving it since before they changed locations. The sandwiches are super good & filling & feel very authentic, the sauces are also good, meat is very well cooked in my opinion, the plantains are to die for, I think everyone should try & Arepa from Bocadillo.

If there is one thing i would like to say tho is that it is very expensive, yesterday i got just the sandwich, it was 18 dollars before tax & tip & with tax & tip about 23-24. if you want a combo its about 25 WITHOUT tax & tip.

Don't get me wrong the sandwich is very delicious & is quite filling, but I think the price is too much for what we are getting. The thing is i think i would come back here way more often if it was less expensive. For students, this is unaffordable, for others, it is just overpriced.

Tried the Arepa Pabellon, the platain sadly was not sweet & the avocado has a mushy texture. Unfortunately we didn't enjoy it as expected. Yuca was absolutely delicious & the green sauce super good!

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

Fresh, fast, & the sauce was delicious! Edit one year later: this is my favourite food spot in Montreal. I make sure to go here every time I visit. I take all my friends & the love it too! I always get the vegetarian arepa.

Best Arepas & friendly service!! The plantains were good but not our favourite, however the yuca & the Pabellón arepa were delicious. Portions were also very generous. Don't forget to ask for more of the green sauce;)
