Ne vous fiez pas aux commentaires ce resto a changé du tout au tout, plus de tapas mais des petites assiettes d'entrée a partager, excessivement cher pour la quantité qu'il y a dans la petite assiette, leur vins très dispendieux, enfin nous sommes entrés dans se resto affamés & en somme ressorti aussi affamés. Le coût de ce souper,$$$$$$$$. Poser des questions lors de votre réservation, pour moi fini a vie avec ce resto. Regarder les années de publication ils datent de plusieurs années, nouvelle administration nouveau menu , plus de tapas seulement des petites assiettes pas assez garni pour un prix exorbitant pour la quantité servi.
Exceptional restaurant! We stopped here because it was close, but wow what a win! The food was incredible tapas. The server was the owner & even took time write us a list of must check spots in the area & gave us some new drinks he was testing. Really solid experience, food was to die for, would return tomorrow if there wasn't a whole city to check out first.
The only reason atmosphere was marked a 4, is because we were the only ones there. Sounds like it was a fluke slow night, there's no way it's slow like that very often with such food, service, & beautiful setting.

Easily the best tapas I've had in Montreal & it's not even close. The menu changes often based on seasonality but I had the calamari & tataki & a few other things & each things was better than the last. Even the bread is unbelievable. Really good wine selection too.
The food was divine, tasty & quite ample for'tapas'. We ordered two dishes each & it was plenty. The wine list was fascinating; the sommelier/owner was a great help to choosing a wine based on our meal. Tommy the waiter
was attentive & not overbearing. The food was priced well; the wine was very pricey & no less expensive choices... $16/glass ++ All said, well recommended.
Such a wonderful experience at Taza Flores. The owner & all of the staff are so kind, & their attention to detail is impeccable. 10/10 would recommend to anyone who is looking for an authentic & cozy Spanish Tapas night.
Excellent service & tapas très bon , nous avons aimé entre autre le tataki de boeuf , les betteraves , la salade de chou , l'onglet de boeuf sur humus .
the food was so good I was absolutely shocked what a good experience & this isn't a tapas bar the meal sizes aren't that small & price is good & you go to flavor town go here & enjoy

We really enjoyed our meal. Service was very friendly & welcoming. We really liked the tapas format, & the flavors were on point. Our favorite was the agnolotti, the sweet & salty flavors really complimented each others.
Excellent repas, nous avons essayé plusieurs tapas qui étaient tous merveilleux.
Le seul bémol est vraiment le service, de la personne qui nous à placer à notre serveur qui regardait partout sauf ma femme & moi quand nous demandions des questions lors de la prise de commande jusqu'à la personne qui nous apporte nos plats en les déclinant en anglais....
Le look du restaurant est merveilleux mais il faudrait que le propriétaire prenne quelques secondes & essaie chacunes de ses sièges, plusieurs chambranles.
Notre pieuvre est arrivée vraiment trop cuite & j'en ai fait part au serveur qu'il a simplement répondu'ah ok'.
C'est malheureusement la dernière fois que je mets les pieds dans ce restaurant de quartier.
Taza Flores est une véritable pépite ! Les tapas sont délicieux, l'ambiance chaleureuse & la sélection de vin intéressante. Un immense merci à Charles pour son service exceptionnel : attentionné, souriant & de bon conseil. Une expérience culinaire intéressante, à refaire sans hésitation !
Difficile de noter un restaurant qui a gardé l'adresse, le nom & la décoration de ce qu'il était avant mais qui n'est plus du tout le même restaurant, avec une carte entièrement refaite & qui tient en une petite page. Les amoureux comme moi de l'ancien Taza Flores qui aimaient venir savourer des tapas à toute heure, avec menu réduit après 22h ne s'y retrouveront pas. Ce n'est plus le guacamole, chakchouca & autres rolls d'agneau avec une bonne pinte de Goose Island en mode tapas à 40$ all in par personne. On est là dans quelque chose de tout à fait différent. Petit verre de vin blanc à 17$ avant pourboires & taxes, très bonne pieuvre grillée mais portion minimale à 30$. Pas de pain à la table car c'est un item payant de type "tapas". Tout ce que notre table a mangé était bon, cher (mais c'est l'époque) & mode restaurant moderne classique. Le nom & le logo devrait changer & une nouvelle clientèle se développera.
Tapas savouvreux, prix raisonnables, personnel sympathique. Les portions pourraient être légèrement plus grosses, mais évidemment, ça dépend avec combien de personnes les tapas dont partagés.
