Such a gem in Châteauguay! This place is kinda small, but the ambiance is amazing. The drinks and food are delicious, the portions are big. You really feel like you’re somewhere else! A must go.

Cute spot, but food is quite overpriced and they're often out of things. The last 2 times I went, they seated us without telling us they were out of everything that wasn't meat (I don't eat meat!) and last time, they were out of guacamole. Lovely view of the river and good cocktails though!

I was so so so disappointed. Not sure I understand the big hype about this place. Probably because most people go to take pictures and do TikTok videos instead of really judging for what it is. Yes we were seated quickly, but it took 30 minutes just to get cups for the bottle of water on the table. The cups were so dirty, like unbelievably dirty, why does the waitress have to go outside on the terrace to get new ones when we are sitting inside? Only two girls for service in a full restaurant? We waited for over 30 minutes to get our drinks. We waited 1h30 to get our food. The taste was ordinary. I am still wondering where the filling was for the beef tacos…Definitely was still hungry when we left, after spending 200$ for 4 people. The drinks were good. I will not be going back and I do not recommend.

Probably the best Mexican restaurant in the Montreal and south shore region. Service was fast and friendly, drinks were refreshing and delicious, and everything we ate was irreprochable. There was a lineup of people prior to opening hours. Might want to plan ahead. Absolutely worth it.

Super fun atmosphere. Great way to end the week. Margaritas were delicious! Ordered pico de gallo, barril tacos and beef tacos. Super fun. Friendly staff but packed, so lots of running around. Line up out the door. Go early.

The parking wasn’t great. We waited 20+ minutes before we were served, which was longer than expected. The food was a small portion and the price was pretty high for what it was. Our meals were very bland, no hint of spice, chilli or flavor. I was also surprised to see that the “beef” was ground beef - I guess this was my fault for having the expectation that it may be barbacoa, or another braised version of beef. I’m sad to say that we left disappointed and not full. The decor was really fun and eclectic which was definitely the highlight!

We went on a Friday evening, arriving a little bit before opening and there was already a group of people waiting. I'm not sure if they take reservations for only 2 people or small groups, but I suggest you get there before opening on typically busy nights if you don't have one, cause seats fill fast!!The decor is colorful, authentic and maximalist. I really love the tile work throughout, and the restaurant is as much of a feast for the eyes as it is your mouth. It also has a fun, upbeat atmosphere and nice view of the water out of the back windows.The food was hot, flavorful and hearty and came quickly. We split the queso fundido and the bacon wrapped stuffed shrimp to start. Not pictured are the homemade tortillas they also gave us for the queso. The Chelada Papi I got to drink was refreshing and tangy. I had the Quesabirria as my main, and my partner got the Ensenada. Don't be deceived by the size of the quesabirria, it's dense and rich making it quite filling. We both left quite full, and it came to a bit over 50$ per person including drink, tax and tip. I look forward to going back next time we have something to celebrate!

I normally love this restaurant but sadly, tonight I experienced horrible service. We had been waiting for over an hour to get our first round of drinks. The waitress never asked if we wanted a second round of drinks. Our food was great but took almost two hours to come. Our waitress didn’t bring our cutlery until we asked and she would often ignore our table. It seemed like we had been forgotten.It may be because it was busy but we noticed other tables we’re being served in a timely manner, expect ours.
