Ouvert du mardi au samedi, nous nous spécialisons dans la cuisine traditionnelle espagnole et proposons une large sélection d'alcools forts, de cocktails, de vins, sangrias et mojitos. Nous avons des DJs tous les soirs ainsi que de nombreux événements spéciaux. L'espace idéale pour vos 5 à 7, repas intimes ou de groupes, événements corporatifs ou musicaux.
ORIGINES DE SANTOS Toutes les rues du Vieux-Montréal sont nommées après des saints. Le local étant situé à l'intersection des rues Saint-Paul et Saint François Xavier, et offrant une cuisine espagnole de style tapas, il était naturel de nommer le restaurant "Saints" en espagnol.
NOTRE MISSION "Feed & Amuse" se traduit de l'anglais au français par "Nourrir & Amuser". C'est notre promesse envers notre clientèle de toujours nourrir leur imagination et leur estomac. Quant à amuser, nous le faisons tous les jours par l'entremise d'événements spéciaux, notre personnel dynamique, notre décor enchanteur et notre musique.
Dans l'ensemble, Santos Tapas Bar est décrit comme un endroit animé et accueillant où l'ambiance, la nourriture et les boissons sont fréquemment saluées, avec un service chaleureux et attentif remarqué par beaucoup et une atmosphère vibrante qui peut passer du dîner au club après les heures. Le menu est mis en avant pour des plats savoureux et des cocktails créatifs, tandis que certains avis évoquent un service lent ou inégal aux heures de pointe et des portions jugées petites par rapport aux prix. Dans l'ensemble, les clients apprécient l'énergie, la musique et le sens de la valeur lorsque tout fonctionne, et beaucoup disent qu'ils reviendront pour revivre cette expérience.
The attitudes of the waitresses completely kill the vibe. One in particular was dismissive & condescending towards my dad & he did nothing to warrant such treatment. The attitude of that waitress through the entire experience was so unbelievable it was funny. After having waited for 6 oysters to arrive for at least 45 minutes & having finished our drinks, we decided to just leave. The manager was really sweet though. He apologised & gave us a discount which we appreciated. It's not the end of the world but I just wouldn't recommend going here.
Food is good ! Vibe is great! Experiences are always case by case here...a lot of negative things could happen based on the reviews ! So far 2 times experience was great!!
Didn't have food. Just went in as the songs playing sounded dope & this place didn't disappoint at all. So glad I stumbled upon it! Would definitely go again. The atmosphere, the vibe, the songs the, the DJ.. everything was great!
Had a beer & calamari early in the night at Santos. Quite a nice & chill place for drinks & tapas. The tapas is not as varied as you would normally see in a Spanish bar, & the prices are definitely on the upper range. The staff are kind & the whole vibe is comfy. Music is not bad. I'll have to visit more to get a better sense of this place at different times of the night.
Went for happy hour with some friends & all was ok until I found a blob of black mold floating in my water glass. I then realized the entire glass was filthy. I told the bartender who gave me another drink but by that point I was terrified to put my lips on anything. The happy hour prices weren't a good deal either. Overall this place has cool vibes but that dirty glass really put a damper on the entire experience.
This is a great place with a great vibe. One point I would like to share. This is the second time where a reservation was made but we had issues getting in. The first time this past spring we were told that they were at capacity even though we made a reservation & turned us away at the door. We came back two other times that same evening with the same result. This time we made a reservation for 9 & called in advance to move it to 9:30, over the phone we got the reassurance that this would be not an issue at all. When we arrived we noted hesitation by the doorman who not only seemed unsure if we would be let in but also seemed like he didn't want to let us in. The bar was I would say at close to 3/4 capacity once we did get inside. I don't understand.
Highly recommend. Nice late night vibe. Perfect for group night out. Calimari, quesadillas, empanadas 10/10. Friendly staff & fast service. Solid spot overall.
