Les avis convergent pour présenter Santiago comme une adresse dominicaine authentique à Montréal, où les plats phares comme le mofongo, les tostones et le sancocho sont riches et savoureux, accompagnés d'un riz blanc et de haricots parfaitement assaisonnés; d'autres classiques comme le chicharron, les empanadas et le moro complètent le menu avec des portions généreuses et un bon rapport qualité-prix.

Beaucoup recommandent aussi les jus frais et les plats de poulet et de poisson, ainsi que les mofongos particulièrement énormes et savoureux. En somme, Santiago ressort comme une destination sûre pour retrouver le vrai goût dominicain, avec des plats bien assaisonnés, des portions généreuses, un service attentionné et une expérience globale qui donne envie de revenir.

The owner was really nice. Food was Dominican. Empanadas, mofongo, chicharron, mondongo, carnitas, pollo, yuca frita, plantain frita, rice, beans, etc. All was really good for the price. We enjoyed the food & will definitely do back.
Best traditional Dominican food I've had in Canada so far!! The food was very flavorful from the rice to the beans. The empanadas were to die for, definitely check them out if you're in the area.
It brought me back to Dominican Republic all over! The food it's so authentically delicious & sancocho was soooo good! My daughters & I love it so much! Also best fried chicken, I had fried fish 🙏🏾😭it was so amazing! Their jus also was so authentic that reminded me of Dominican. Definitely recommend to go!
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.

As a Dominican, I can confidently say the food here captures 100% of the authentic Dominican flavor, & the variety is excellent. I won't miss the chance to visit this restaurant again when I'm back in Montreal!
Came to Montreal to visit & this place has blown my mind. The food is delicious, portions are good & the host was very friendly. Honestly best Dominican food I had in a very long time
The only thing that beats the delicious food served here is their outstanding service, we felt like in home in DR, food tasted like home made & coffee was amazing, only thing I missed was a hammock & a good nap , We're from NY & so far have not experienced a Dominican restaurant as good as this one, Keep it up!!!
When you enter the restaurant, you start reading all the messages written all over the walls. Very cozy environment with latino music background & superb service. It was not busy for a Friday evening. This was our first time eating mofongo & it did not disappoint. If you are a plantain lover, this is your dish! The beef mofongo was a saucy dish which went well with the mofongo, the chicken was well seasoned but it was pan fried, so it was on the dried side. Both complemented by a small salad & an amazing salsa. We also tried their sancocho & it was so rich, so flavour... if you are a soup lover, you will love it. Don't forget to ask for dessert as it is not in the menu! We had tres leches, flan de coco, & regular flan. All very good! Overall it was a great experience trying this Dominican restaurant: the food, the ambiance, the people.
Authentic Dominican Street food. Fried everything. Delicious, can't wait to go back. Good value for money too. I peaked in the kitchen & the place was spotless!
