Fondé en mai 2018 par sa propriétaire Yesenia Noesi, Santiago Café Restaurant vous fera découvrir les saveurs et arômes de la cuisine dominicaine. Une cuisine honnête, traditionnelle, aux accents contemporains, qui saura vous surprendre et évoquer d’heureux souvenirs de voyage. Fondée par Christophe Colomb en 1495, “ Santiago de los caballeros” est la deuxième ville la plus importante de la République Dominicaine. Notre menu rends hommage à la ville de Santiago et ses traditions: le steak américano, le poulet Don Armando, la Parrillita ou le Mofongo sont quelques unes de nos spécialités. Pour une soirée à deux ou pour une célébration en groupe, Santiago est votre petit coin du Sud à Montréal!
Overall, Santiago Café Restaurant comes across as a welcoming family run spot where Caribbean and Dominican flavors shine through generous portions, tasty mofongo and tostones, and dishes like sancocho and pork with rich seasoning. The food is repeatedly described as delicious, drinks are good, and the vibe is warm and homey with charming decor. Service is praised as attentive and friendly, making birthdays and groups feel special, with reservations advised for larger parties. The atmosphere, value, and the chance to try a variety of dishes make it a standout option for both locals and visitors, with many noting that a trip from nearby areas is worthwhile for the experience.
We came over on a calm thursday night. The waitress was very nice to us & took the time to explain the menu in detail.
The food was absolutely incredible! I took the Pork Mofongo (I had never tried it before) & it was delicious! We kept raving about how good everything was the whole time we were there. We even were given pens to leave a tag on the wall, which was a really fun & original way to end our evening.
I strongly recommend it if you're in the neighborhood & are looking for a nice little place to eat. This won't be our last time there.
Tout était tellement bon! La poitrine de poulet grillée & le Mofongo wow! Personnel très gentil & accueillant. Ça vaut le détour. Je recommande fortement!

First time for me & my wife in Montreal from the U.S & we wanted to try the Dominican food in Montreal. We got the empanadas, fritura, & mofongo con res guisado. Everything was amazing. We also got a house drink that was spectacular. Yessenia was great with us as well. When we go back to Montreal, we will definitely go back. Thank you from Ashley & Camilo.

We were looking for comfort food & they didn't disappoint. The service was incredible, & the food was top notch. The food was amazing & the tres leches was out of this world.
Pedí una sopita para el guayabo y un mofongo, de verdad que QUE DELICIOSOOOO ESTABA! Es muy difícil encontrar restaurantes que tengan comida latina que sepa a casa🥹🥹 que deli estuvo
A great little restaurant with extremely friendly staff, excellent (& authentic) food, a welcoming vibe, & speedy service. The mofongo & empanaditas were absolutely incredible. Definitely give this place a try!
