Antares (propriétaire) & Horacio (superviseur) ont été accommodant. Ils ont tenu compte de toutes les demandes particulières que nous avions pour un événement que j'ai tenu dans la salle du haut. Le service durant la soirée a été impeccable.
Best nachos I have ever tasted! They're not your typical nachos. It was so good we ordered another plate. It is a must when you visit. We also got the chicken & steak tacos, both had nice flavors but the star was the nachos.

Une de mes adresses favorites au centre-ville, leurs cocktails sont délicieux & leurs tacos exceptionnels. La qualité du service & l'ambiance de la salle viennent sublimer le tout. Je recommande fortement!
Since I pass by here very often & I've seen this restaurant hosting some corporate events; I thought good food would be served promptly... but no. They dont know how to serve a group of about 70 people... the place was very hot & the food was just re-using the same ingredients over & over. Also the interval between the tapas was very long. I think the restaurant is ok for ~20 people not more. When I came with only my husband just the two of us it was much better.
Tried mojito special version, with pineapple & chili, really good. Mango salad, mango & cucumber, simple setups taste fresh Stake taco, perfect seasoning, sweet & chili, just to my liking Tuna tostada, surprising flavor, good! Overall it was really good but a little bit overpriced
I had the best time ever we went grand prix weekend & they found a way to squeeze us in. Mike & Antares greeted us, followed by Mel & Emma who served us!! Service, food, & ambiance too was amazing.
My husband & I came here on the weekend. The waitresses were very friendly. We enjoyed the mojitos - the pineapple was a nice touch! We really liked the chips & guac, camarones y queso, & coliflor tacos. The upper floor had a nice vibe from the artwork on the walls to the upbeat latin american music. Highly recommend, & will definitely go again!

Overall a great bang for buck. The tacos were amazing & the drinks were delicious. The service was great & our server gave us some great must visit spots in Montreal. The music was 2000 raggaeton which is what my friends & I love.
