Dans l'ensemble, Sabrosa est apprécié pour son cadre animé dans le vieux Montréal, sa déco soignée et son ambiance accueillante, avec un menu axé sur une cuisine mexicaine inspirée qui met en valeur les tacos birria, les tacos al pastor et les tacos aux crevettes, ainsi que du guacamole frais et une variété de salsas; les portions sont généralement généreuses et l'atmosphère, en terrasse comme à l'intérieur, est décrite comme savoureuse, festive et adaptée aux familles, même si certains clients trouvent le menu limité côté options végétariennes et que l'authenticité des saveurs ne correspond pas toujours à la cuisine mexicaine traditionnelle; le service est salué pour son attention et sa gentillesse lorsque le personnel est disponible, mais des expériences avec un service plus lent et des incohérences dans l'exécution ou la valeur ont été notées, notamment un commentaire sur des churros mal cuits et un autre sur une sauce trop lourde qui a altéré le goût de certains tacos; dans l'ensemble, Sabrosa est considéré comme une option solide et agréable dans le quartier touristique de Place Jacques-Cartier avec un bon rapport qualité-prix, une gamme de tacos convaincants et une ambiance dynamique qui incite à revenir pour essayer d'autres plats.
An absolute gem in the heart of Old Montreal!
Sabrosa completely blew us away from the moment we walked in. Tucked inside a stunning historic stone building on Place Jacques-Cartier, the atmosphere alone is worth the visit - it somehow manages to feel vibrant & lively while still being warm & intimate. You can genuinely sense the soul of Mexico City, Lima, & Buenos Aires all woven together under one roof.
But let's talk about the food, because wow. The menu is a love letter to Latin America, & every dish reflects that passion. The ceviche was bright, citrusy, & absolutely fresh - easily the best I've had in Montreal. The birria tacos were rich & deeply flavored, & the nikkei-inspired touches throughout the menu added such a creative, unexpected dimension. Everything is clearly made with real technique & intention, not just thrown together.
The cocktail list deserves its own shoutout - the mezcal & tequila selection is impressive, & the bartenders clearly know what they're doing.
Service was warm, attentive, & genuinely enthusiastic about the food - exactly what you want. Our server walked us through the menu with real knowledge & care.
Whether you're coming for a date night, a group dinner, or just because you deserve something spectacular - Sabrosa delivers every time. Already planning our next visit. ¡Sabrosa indeed!
Nous sommes allés hier puis pour nous à part la guacamole & tacos poulet frit le reste était assez ordinaire, le Taco birria sans saveur le bouillon & le pastor aucun lien avec les Vrais tacos al pastor. Je connais des endroits à mtl où les saveurs sont de loin très meilleur
On la essayé & non ses pas un coup de coeur. En revanche très bon service.

I would rate this place 3 stars. The restaurant is beautiful, clean, & has very nice decor. The concept leans more toward gourmet Mexican cuisine, which gives it a more'fancy' feel.
However, I wouldn't consider it one of the best Mexican restaurants in Montreal, as it lacks that authentic, traditional flavor. That said, the service was good & overall it's a pleasant place to visit.
Glad to discover this restaurant! I shared the guacamole, birria tacos, & al pastor tacos. All delicious & good portion sizes. Unfortunately, the churros were still raw in the middle. Other than that, I look forward to coming back to try other dishes.
The MOST wonderful eating experience in Montreal thus far on our trip. Wow this restaurant is super welcoming & very well decorated. We had so many different items from the Menu & they were all impeccible. The 3 desserts we had with our coffees (they have three choices) were each so delicious!!! We didn't want to leave. So good. We were all very happy with our meals. A must visit place for a relaxing super delicious meal.

Best place I ate at in Montreal & for a crazy reasonable price! Beautiful location, we just walked in with no reservation during Canada Day, friendly staff, & amazing food.
I got the shrimp tacos & birria tacos which were insane. Also tried my friends enchilada which was also insane. Had a great time honestly. Would go back in a heartbeat.
Sabrosa is a beautiful place to dine in. The decor was absolutely divine & I will say the food was what really brought us it all together. You can never go wrong with birria tacos but the ones at Sabrosa were some of the most delicious & flavourful tacos I've ever had. The portions were generous, leaving all of us completely satisfied. Since we were a group of 6, we were charged a 5$ service fee & the waiter did not ask for additional tips, which we appreciated. We spent a great evening here & I will definitely be coming back to try the other items on the menu
Highly recommend getting food & drink or even just cocktails!
Wonderful decor, really lovely atmosphere & good selection on the menu. Super friendly waitress who was so attentive, gave us recommendations & was serving everyone so well. Thank you for your great service!
Ordered a couple cocktails which tasted so lovely - good layers of flavour, texture & presentation.
We tried the tuna starter which was tasty, maybe a little too fishy, but came with great guac & elements. Papaya salad was refreshing & was lots of it.
Then had the fried chicken tacos & pork tacos - pork was outstanding, chicken was probably more fried batter than actual chicken but it was still tasty & nice selection of hot sauces on the side.
Wish we could've tried the prawn ceviche or the beef biria tacos as those looked great too.
Only slight downside was the price - it adds up quickly! But then the service, drinks & food overall was tasty.

Had a decent experience at Sabrosa. Nice, quaint vibe with good service. Personally I feel the menu items offered are limited but that could also be the reason of a consistent taste of the food. Its also pocket friendly in my opinion.

We went on a weekend at lunch. It wasn't too busy since they hadn't been open for long. We waited for less than a minute in the entrance before a waiter came to seat us.
There menu isn't large but we were happy with the options. We ordered a calamari dish that was good in taste & quality & had a delicious chipotle sauce. For the meal itself, we ordered a mushroom quesadilla & guac. The mushroom quesadilla was a good meal & a good portion. The guac itself was nice & a good amount of tortilla chips to come with. We asked for hot sauce, & they brought two : one mild & one less mild. Though, they were voth reasonably spice.
Note : We split the foods & all the plates were good portions to split between 2 people.
I ordered an espresso martini. The waiter was kind enough to show me the glass it came in before I ordered. I am not a drinker & to say the least the drink wasn't too bad for someone who doesn't like alcohol.
Fantastic experience all around! The food was amazing. We ordered the butter chicken, garlic naan, & two mango lassis, & everything was rich, fresh, & full of flavour. The service truly made the night though. Mohit & Lena took great care of us &, despite saying she doesn't like sweets, Lena was easily the sweetest part of the experience, kind, attentive, & a pleasure to interact with! Big appreciation as well to Shubham & a special shoutout to Mohit for going above & beyond by bringing us extra naan even as they were closing up. That level of hospitality doesn't go unnoticed. An excellent team, great energy, & a place we'd happily return to!
