    Tacos
    Stephanie L.

    Since it's so close by, we go to La Catrina every now and then. This past time wasn't great, the food was okay/subpar and the service has been better. We visited on a Wednesday night, were promptly seated on the patio. We ordered two drinks, La Catrina platter, and the taco platter. It was busy for a Wednesday night, so we waited a while before our food or drinks came. In fact, we got the Catrina platter and finished it and waited a while before even getting our drinks! Don't know about you, but I prefer having a drink to start! Comments on the food: - La Catrina platter: on the menu it states that you'll get pico de Gallo, corn and cheese thing, and ceviche. -- We got the pico de Gallo and corn and cheese dish, guacamole and black beans. -- To be honest, these black beans were terrible and we were really expecting ceviche. When it was served, we asked where the ceviche was and the server (not our main waiter) just said "we don't have ceviche" and left. I wish we were told this when we ordered because we wouldn't have ordered it. The black beans tasted like they were just poured out of a can and combined with onion. Truly inedible. If you want good black beans go to La Tamalera, they're amazing! -- The pico de Gallo and guacamole was good, but the platter fell flat, felt like really cheap with a bunch of stuff out of cans (corn and beans). - Taco platter: 5 tacos of different flavours This was good, though we weren't a fan of the mushroom/cauliflower taco. The fried chicken and grilled shrimp were very good! Cocktails: - Americano: very fresh ginger flavours - Eastern Thyme: despite the nice ingredients, was really lacking in flavour. Service: Our waiter was polite and nice. But sometimes it felt like our food or drinks were forgotten. It took a long time for him to clear our table, so we sat with dirty dishes for like 30 minutes, he walked by and saw the dishes many times but never took them. In sum, we were not happy with our last visit. The patio is very nice, but the food was meh and the service was very slow. Also really didn't like that they weren't transparent about not having ceviche for the platter, which was a major reason for ordering it.

    We visited La Catrina on St Laurent last week for supper and were pleasantly surprised by the experience! (In a good way!) We chose to sit indoors, however they also have a lovely terrasse that you can sit at if you want. I was also a huge fan of the music, if you enjoy spanish/latin music, you'll love their playlist! We ordered the guacamole with homemade tortilla chips to start and let me tell you, it was amazing. It's made fresh at your table and the portion is massive! They also have a nice bar, which we ordered the margaritas, and these I would have to say were some of the best margaritas we have ever had. They were flavourful, beautifully presented and they weren't cheap on the alcohol :). For our main, we chose three different tacos to share - the fried fish (came with 2 tacos), the fried chicken (came with two tacos) and the beef brisket (came in an order of three). Our favourites were definitely the fried chicken and the beef! The tacos were piled high with ingredients and unlike some other taco places I have been to, we were so full! So I would say three types to share between two with an app, is more than enough! They currently have happy hour specials wed and thurs nights from 5-7! So if you're looking for a spot to grab a drink and a snack, definitely recommend!

    We thoroughly enjoyed our visit at the speakeasy! The wait was pretty long on a weekday night, we…read morewaited about 45 minutes to an hour, and then we're seated with a party of four. They curate whatever drinks based on your preferences, including sweetness, fruitiness, etc. They ask you about your preferences, and then based on that they have a designated drink ready. It is not in a traditional menu where you order it which makes it all the more fun! The vibes were immaculate and very clean, the service was fairly nice even though they were busy. Drinks run $20 each and we're all amazing!

    The Cloakroom Bar came at the recommendation of one of my colleagues as a place to check out in…read moreMontreal. I'm a fan of cocktail bars, and after reading up on this spot I made it my intention to check it out. It just so happened that it was a short walk from my hotel, so we decided to check it out one night before heading to dinner. The Cloakroom is a speakeasy, nestled behind a hidden door in a men's clothing shop. In the line of being a speakeasy, the space is small - there are only 24 seats but since we got there right at opening we were seated right away. The space is dark and intimate, with the bottles of liquor lit up behind the bar providing an attractive focal point. One of the more unique features of the bar is that there's no menu; we told our server the types of liquors we wanted along with the flavor notes and they crafted a cocktail based on our tastes. We ultimately had two rounds; my first drink was vodka-based and fruity, while I went with something gin-based and dryer. Both were very good - there's little fanfare with presentation; the bartenders let the drinks speak for themselves. Service was great; due to the setup, each patron is given extra attention which really highlighted the experience. Overall, I really enjoyed my time at The Cloakroom Bar. This was definitely a unique experience with excellent curated drinks. I would definitely return the next time I'm in Montreal.
