Tacos were nice but over priced & with micro portions! Waiter was cheerful.

Great Mexican food! Tried the tacos Al pastor. Great. If you arrive near 12, they stop serving until 12 to get things ready for lunch

Restaurante de 10. Está en una de las calles principales. Nos cogieron rapidísimo y aunque no tuvimos que esperar nada sin reserva, había muchísimo ambiente.
Los tacos de gambas y pollo muy ricos. Además, pedimos el ceviche y nos encantó.
Los camareros eran todos muy jóvenes y muy amables todos.
De precio estuvo bastante bien.
Lo recomiendo mucho

So many restaurants in this area & as they all service tourists, I'm sure many are poor. Sabrosa isn't like that. If I were a local, I would definitely return. The tacos are varied & delicious. We ordered 4 dishes for 3 people & that was perfect. Thanks for the great food & service.

A very pretty decor Mexican food restaurant located in the centre of old Montreal. You can see the crowds & tourists if you choose to sit outside. Otherwise inside is very chic & uniquely decorated with large mirrors & unique wallpapers.

We visited on a Thursday evening around 6:30 & were lucky to be accommodated without a reservation as we were a small group however, definitely recommend a reservation at this place to be safe.

Food was good & came out to us fairly quickly.
We got the vegetarian tacos along with guacamole & chips. We also got the corn on cob. The food was fresh & delicious.

The service can be slightly improved. Our server was busy & not really able to check in on us. But nevertheless, we were able to locate her.

However, music was loud, making it very challenging for conversations. It doesn't help if you sit indoors near their station where they constantly grab plates & cutlery thus creating loud noises.

Overall, it's good food & vibes. Recommended.

I've come to Sabrosa 5+ times. It has been perfect every single time. The food & service have consistently been amazing. I went last night & sat at the bar. We were served by Alex & Thierry & they were absolute studs. Service was second to none & the same can be said about the conversation. I would recommend anyone to go who loves good tacos & great drinks. I plan to continue coming back whenever I can.
