 Cheery, lively and festive |
440 St-François-Xavier Street (Near St-Sacrament) Montreal, QC H2Y 2T3 Canada +1 514 286 9589 http://www.casademateo.com/ |
This cheery, lively and festive space captures some of the feeling of Mexico with its troubadours and open kitchen, where tortillas are hand-rolled and baked. The setting (within a double dining room) is designed with parties in mind. A definite must is the freshly churned guacamole, followed by Shrimp à la Diabla. Dessert is an extra treat, featuring bananas flambéed in liqueur and tequila. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Hot little gem |
70 Marie-Anne Street East Montreal, QC H2W 1A2 Canada +1 514 849 6649 http://www.leledacuca.com/ |
The setting is tiny and the décor is simple, but the ambience is as hot as it comes in this Brazilian-Mexican gem tucked beneath the shadow of Mount Royal. Service is personalized, thanks to the effervescent presence of the owner. Dishes include the usual fajitas (CAD10.25) and quesadillas (CAD10.25), but these are complemented by Brazilian specialties like crevettes à baiana (shrimp cooked in coconut milk and spicy tomato sauce). You can bring your own wine, making this an outstanding bargain. It's usually packed, so be sure to reserve. Review © 2007, Wcities |
