If you’re looking for reliable Mexican comfort food in the heart of downtown, 3 Amigos remains a staple. We dropped in on a Wednesday evening and were thoroughly impressed by the value and efficiency, making it an ideal choice for a pre-show meal. The Atmosphere & Service: Despite it being a mid-week night, the vibe was lively. We were heading to a show and were quite conscious of the time, but the service was impressively quick. The staff was attentive and ensured we weren’t rushing through our meal while still getting us out the door on schedule. The Food & Drink: • Margaritas: We started with the house margaritas, which were served in their signature "Sol" glassware. They were perfectly balanced—refreshing, tangy, and not overly sweet. The salted rim and lime garnish were the classic touch needed to kick off the night. • Tacos: I opted for the classic tacos, while my friend had the shrimp fajitas. Both were delicious and hit the spot. The shells were crisp, the fillings were well-seasoned, and they came served with a generous side of Mexican rice, refried beans, and a fresh salad. • The Experience: The portions are hearty, and the presentation is exactly what you want from a casual Mexican spot—vibrant and satisfying. The Verdict: The standout feature here is undoubtedly the unbeatable price. Finding a sit-down meal in Centre-Ville that is this tasty and affordable is a rarity. Highlights: • Value: A price point that is hard to beat in downtown Montréal. • Speed: Ideal for diners on a schedule or heading to the nearby theaters. • Quality: Consistently good comfort food and excellent cocktails. Whether you're looking for a casual dinner with friends or a quick bite before a concert, 3 Amigos delivers on its promise of great food without breaking the bank. Definitely a "must" for a budget-friendly night out!
Reviews / Ratings for 3 Amigos (Centre ville)
I had booked a table for 3 and mentioned in my reservation that it was my first time visiting your restaurant with my family. We arrived on time, but ended up waiting until 7:40 pm. During that time, several other guests were being seated while 2 to 3 groups, including ours, were left waiting. Shortly after arriving around 7, I went to the front to confirm our reservation and was told the wait would be 10 to 15 minutes. However, after waiting over 40 minutes with no clear update, we decided to leave and dine elsewhere. I understand that your restaurant is busy, but accepting reservations without the capacity to honor them in a reasonable timeframe is frustrating. I would appreciate better time management and consideration for guests’ schedules in the future.
Amazing food, great atmosphere, and the strawberry banana daiquiri was EVERYTHING 😍🍓🍌🍹 Perfect for a cute family date night or just a fun outing. Definitely recommend! The place has really upgraded the whole vybe since the last time I was there . Great job ! Thanks 3 amigos , see you next time ! 💃🏼🙌🏼😆
If you love margarita and good Mexican food you should definitely try them. The server was soooo nice
Really good place, beautiful decoration, ambience, good and tasty drinks, delicious food and a really good price!
Incredible food! Table gets some chips and salsa before ordering and the ordered food came out very quick. Carne Asada (beef tacos) were so delicious!! The restaurant was a busy spot on a game night and in the middle of some major road construction. Nothing slowed them down! Would highly recommend if you’re a fan of Mexican food! Prices were also great!
I was unfortunately served a dish that wasn’t warm. Since it was my first time trying Mexican food, I assumed that was how it was supposed to be. But later, when I looked it up, I realized the dish should have been served hot. Other than that, everything else was excellent—the service, the vibe of the restaurant, and the flavors were all great.
I’ve been going to 3 Amigos on Sainte-Catherine for many years, and I always have a great time. The food is consistently excellent, fresh, and full of flavor. The music and ambience make it a fun place to relax and enjoy the night. The staff are always welcoming, attentive, and kind. They go out of their way to make sure everything runs smoothly. Our waiter made the experience even better by checking in at the right times and making sure we were well taken care of. This place never disappoints. Great food, great service, and a great atmosphere every time. I highly recommend it.
Friendly vibe and excellent service from Zahid!
Very friendly staff with delicious food and drinks. Fair prices.
Everything was fine but this one A hole server forced me twice to pay more and more tips, tried to bill me for the complimentary chips and salsa like I have never come before and was cancelling the payment in machine cuz he wanted MORE TIP. I felt really uncomfortable and that experience after the meal was horrible, will NEVER go back again to any of their branches
Dirty service
The food is amazing,the music is great and there was even live dancers getting people to dance with them I always love coming here!
Excellent service and delicious food !!!!
'twas amazing!!!!!!! food is really great! I highly recommend Tres Amigos if you want to surprise someone on his/her birthday! They're very festive. Staffs are so friendly and constantly asking if everything is good.
I've been going to the one downtown for over 25 years and let me tell you, the started cheapening out on the home made hot sauce, used to be very good and they changed it a few months ago, to the point where it is completely tasteless and just hot without any taste, just burning hot, it's orange watered down liquid and looks like Franks hot sauce you would buy at the super market. Bring back the other sauce and stop being cheap with your customers.
Everything was really good ♥️ We were happy! Celebrating our birthdays! It was good!
We recently got this place recommended and decided to check it out while visiting Montreal from Toronto. It truly exceeded our expectations—the quality, ambiance, service, and variety on the menu were all impressive. As vegetarians, we were blown away by the number of options available. The chimichangas were absolutely delicious, the portions were generous, and the pricing was incredibly reasonable.
Great food, excellent service!
Used to have way better tasting food, now it's very bland, they are nowhere near what athletic Mexican food are known for. The food isn't fresh, and the flavors are lacking spices. That being said, this is a convenient spot and has good vibes for a fun night out, but if you're looking for good tasting food, you won't get it.
very flavourful food for decent prices. i especially love the way they cook their rice, it's juicy and deliciously aromatic with tomatoes. great overall restaurant for chicken and rice cravings. the staff is also quite friendly, they were very talkative and joked with us.
WOW!!🔥🔥🔥 The Best Serverrr I’ve Ever Had Yet JULIO you are awesome brother great energy great service great discussion you deserve everything coming your way in life brother I appreciate your service BOSS!!🫡🤝🏾🔥
Our waiter was super friendly and very funny. He spoke spanish frequenly. We think he was between 50-60 years of age. Excellent service
We went to 3 Amigos in Montreal as a group of five girls yesterday. The food was great — everything came out hot, fresh, and really tasty. The atmosphere was fun and the restaurant itself has a nice vibe. The only downside was the service from our waiter. He repeatedly called me “sir” even though we were a table of all women. One of my friends politely corrected him, but the interaction afterward felt a bit uncomfortable. Aside from that moment, the experience was good overall and the food definitely delivered. If the service had been a bit more attentive and respectful, it would have been a perfect visit.
