I've never had food like this. The flavours, the presentation, the textures, it all caught me by surprise. I mean sure it's tacos, cuban poutine, and the likes but there's such a unique twist to them that I was enchanted. The portions were a bit small so perfect for a 5a7 or for tapas with friends. It's not really a sit down and have a long dinner kinda place. I didn't have a reservation so I sat at the bar with my boyfriend and it was ok but not the best seat in the house. It gets more hectic at the bar. I didn't order a drink but my boyfriend got a light blonde beer and he said it was good. I highly recommend this place. Such a cool and funky vibe with some great food to share.

The menu had many options which catered to family style meals. We were a small group so we chose to try out a few of their appetizers which were sized on the larger end of the spectrum. We had chicharron that were crispy and succulent. Are pas that accompanied the beans and tasty grill fired chicken. What was beyond at this place was the hospitality. The woman who served us was warm and generous. She was patient too since I was trying to a speak my broken Spanish with her and the other man serving us. They both were encouraging in the endeavour. I would definitely recommend this spot for groups.

CubanMex fusion cuisine is getting traction in Florida, New Mexico, Texas, Arizona and of course California, but hands down - this small simple family run restaurant in Montreal is at the front of this trend. I only hope they don't get so popular, that we cannot get in next time. This type of innovation in flavor from immigrants merging their own two cultures is what Montreal is all about!
