We came to Montreal on a trip, found this restaurant out of the blue, glad we did. Good food, good prices!

Went in after lunch just to get churros. The place is small & cute, good air conditioning on a really hot day, could be a bit cleaner. Staff were super friendly, we were the only customers so it was quick. Churros were alright, lack of cinnamon sugar on them, very hot & bare dough. Letting them cool down a bit & making sure they're well coated would make them so much better.
