I ordered the yucca fries with the pork and the hard taco with avocadoes as well as the tamale with chicken. Yeah, I just had a field day here. Everything was served with a jug of tomato sauce and another huge jug of pickled vegetables, which are both unlimited condiments. I also ordered the horchata, but they forgot it and I didn't bother to ask for it because I realize how over my head I was when the food came out. The yucca fries were okay, but I was really surprised by the pork, which is like a chicharron type hard feel, but extremely delicious. I had this with the side of the tomato sauce. The avocado on the taco is amazeballs, and I did not expect it. The avocado had a really sweet taste to it, and it tasted light and not as buttery as the usual that I'm used to. The tamale was a bit odd with chicken, potato and olives right in there. The chicken was really tender, but I wasn't digging the potatoes and olives because it wasn't expected. Everything came out too $22! They don't do credit or debit tips, just cash so make sure to have some money for the cash tips. Lovely place.

I know I just came from there and the food in Mexico is hard to beat but thiS place is pretty close ... It had a Big Bulging sign saying : "Ouvert" Yaaay I came in and was lured in by the sccent from the ready made meals to the left. I didn't even take the time to go through their grocery section. I should have, as I love cooking homemade meals, but I was hungry and in a hurry & the last thing I want to do when I get back home is Cook haha. Ambiance: a bit old looking and needs a real facelift but that didn't stop me from giving it a try. The take out counter was all ready prepared meats and interesting dishes that reminded me a lot of Mexico! It's a latino grocery store kind of like a mini Adonis but more authentic and unique. Service: Fabulous! Very nice boys behind the counter smilling and serving me anything I wanted. They seemed very friendly and even taught me words in Spanish .. super cool! Food: They had fresh Pork skins , pork dishes, chicken dishes meatballs, beef, beans, Empanadas , Tongue wow it was cook to perfection I should have gotten the 4 tacos for 10$ but slipped my mind ( next time ;;)) The flavours are very authentic and comes super close to the food I had in Mexico. It's latin cuisine lots of rice dishes, tacos, salsa Piquante ,Pico de gallo .. the Guaccc was AMAZING I really enjoyed it. The Empanadas is a Colombian dish was very good too they had to different cooks ( baked or fried) I got both .. the fried was way more flavourful .. the baked empanadas was ok but kinda dry. Parking: Hard as you have to be lucky now a days with all this snow and bike paths lol Cost: Very reasonable.. we got lots of assorted meats and dishes for around 50$ Overall, really enjoyed this place and will definitely be back for More !

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.

I would totally recommend anyone to try this place, the lady is welcoming, food might have taken a short while to come but it was worth the wait. I had a plate stuffed with broken rice, red beans, plantains cooked in two different ways, beef steak, pork sausages, lard, avocado and yuka with a quickly fried egg. All that for somewhere around 25$. A little pricey you might say but look at the amount of food you get! To clean all this I also got a freshly made passion fruit juice, wish I could have this every morning to be honest... It's located near Marché Jean Talon and you can park on the street, the place doesn't lie. They don't need fancy table cloth or cool lightnings, you come here for one thing : the food.

I came with a group of 8 and we had no problems finding seating though. Food: The Bandeja Paisa...huge mixture of food on a platter, consisted of chorizo sausages, bed of excellent rice, red beans, fried egg, fried pork rind, grilled steak...possibly the national dish of Columbia. It was done very well. Outstanding seasoning. Others in my party ordered the pork chops or fried fish. Everything was done well. Prices were $10-$20. Service was fast and the owner was very friendly. I highly recommend Tina's.

The service was friendly enough, but not note-worthy; you order at the counter and they bring the food to you, but otherwise don't really attend to you which is fine. They have a wide variety of different "sandwichs" that appeared to be larger portions on a maize bun, and arepas that are a little smaller than the sandwiches, among other food items. We tried: 1. Pabellón - beef, beans, and white Venezuelan cheese. A nice balance of sweet, savory, creamy, and meaty; our favorite part of the meal! 2. Rumbera - pork and cheddar cheese. The pork was good, but they really loaded the cheddar cheese in this arepa; I think the ratio was a little bit off. 3. Tequeño - a little finger-long fried stick with filling. We got the white Venezuelan cheese. A little crispy, not very large; it was okay. We got this because they didn't have empanadas. Some downsides were that you have to buy bottled water, and that the food took a little longer than expected to come out considering the simplicity of the food. Also, they didn't have any empanadas when we came. Overall, 5 stars for the food; we would come back to try different sandwiches! --Rating Rubric-- 5* - As good as it gets; some or all of the experience went above and beyond. I would come here again and again! 4* - Worth checking out; a good value. No major complaints or only minor flaws that set this place back. I'm glad I tried it, but I might not come back here in lieu of trying somewhere new. 3* - A few setbacks that soured the experience. Not the worst, but I wouldn't recommend it to friends. 2* - Multiple setbacks that made me dislike the place. 1* - I was personally offended by the people or services. Steer clear!

We chose Bocadillo because it seemed to have good ambiance (it was full of people finishing their dinners). we ordered the fromage tacanhos and we immediately looked at each other because they were delicious. We just wanted to order more... after that, we chose a vegetarian plate and the Bistro de Pollo that was the best arepa I have ever had in my life! I wasn't a fan of arepas or at least i thought (by my experience in Caracas)... We were perplexed by the quality of the food and the simpathy they had although it was almost closing time. I highly recommend this place to all fans of Venezuelan food and who ever wants to get to know this amazing cuisine.

I also had the almond croissant and apple turnover both are very good as well. The almond croissant is very tasty. It's more flat and pressed than the big poofy ones. As though it is screaming "I'm just a small ordinary croissant". :) Definitely stop by if you're in the Mont Royal area/ plateau area.
