Such a delicious meal, would love to go back to try more of the menu.

I appreciate that tofu is an option to make things vegetarian. The mango juice was fresh.

I ordered the El Calentao 26oz bowl for takeout from Foordash, & when I arrived at Juanitos, I also I ordered an arepa con pollo.

I suppose I expected the El Calentao bowl to be filling, which it was, but I didn't really know what to expect in terms of yumminess. It was more flavorful than I could have imagined, & one of the best Latin American dishes I've had since spending a winter in Mexico 3 years ago.

As for the arepa, hands down the best arepa I've ever had. In full transparency, I've only had arepas from two other Montreal restaurants & from an ex-partner who was Colombian & used to make them fresh for us. I also figured when I ordered an arepa, that I'd get an arepa. Well I was wrong... it came with a big avocado sauce on the side & French fries, so that was an unexpected pleasant surprise.

The last thing I want to say about Juanitos is how friendly & warm the young man who took my order. Marco & I spoke at length. He's actually one of the owners & I found him to be genuine & nice. Great meal, great place, great vibes.

Such a lovely little family-run restaurant in Saint-Henri! I first discovered Juanito's years ago when they had their café, D'maïs,& I still remembered how delicious their empanadas were. I was so happy to find them again in their cozy new location.
The food was excellent. We tried the arepa with beef & the patacones rellenos, & both were absolutely delicious, fresh, & full of flavour. But what really makes this place special is the warmth of the people. You can genuinely feel the care they put into both the food & the experience.
If you're looking for authentic Latin American comfort food served by kind people, Juanito's is definitely worth a visit. Wishing this wonderful family business all the success they deserve!

The calentado was so comforting! Kids loved the arepa de choclo. The fresh lulo & mango juice was amazing. & the friendly service is 10 out of 5.

Amazing place. The staff is incredibly kind & lovely, the food is delicious (I personally recommend the churros, they are freshly made & so yummy!) Great place to visit if you are a local or from outside of Montreal!!

Update: just tried their empanadas yesterday & they are sooo good. The two I tried were the pulled pork & pulled beef, both were equally delicious. MUST tries 😍😍😍
