What a gem this place is! The excellent service is refreshing & the dishes are simply delectable!

I have celiac disease &, in my excitement at the delights on the menu, ordered the tacos al pescado. It arrived, beautifully presented, & I realized it was breaded. Totally my fault for ordering without looking. But the staff immediately offered to replace it with one of their many gluten-free options.

Their ceviche (I chose the mango habanero) is the best in Montreal & rivals even the best restaurants in Lima.

Le Paloma est excellent, je goûte ce cocktail partout & ici c'est un sans faute.
Les tacos al Pastor sont très bons, mais gagneraient à offrir un petit peu plus de bouts d'ananas.
On a demandé des churros sans cannelle (qui vient par défaut malheureusement) & ils nous les ont fait, ce qui a été très apprécié.
Très bon rapport qualité prix & décor sympa. Bruyant mais on s'entendait parler quand même.

Food is amazing! The drinks are great too, it's a small cozy place, very cute decorated, perfect spot for a date!
The service is nice but a little slow, that's the only thing I think they could improve.
I will definitely come back!
