A delightful place to discover! Not too rowdy when we got there (around 5vish). Bueaitful atmosphere, cozy, warm...the sevrers are abposultely amazing. The whole staff seem passionate by this place. Food was yummy and I was able to find something with my many intolerances (I eat vegan and gluten free). Definitely a spot to discover. perfect for a date, business meeting, work diner, etc read more

Finally got to try this place after years of living nearby and I should've visited earlier! We got the sharing menu as we were a big group and it's perfect because you get to try a big variety of meals to share and the portions are bigger than you would expect. Everyone was very full after all the food. It's hard to pick a favourite dish because they were all so good. The service is very friendly and they take the time to explain the dishes as you get them and are very attentive. Lots of seating too so this place is absolutely ideal for big groups who wanna share food. If you have someone who has allergies or is vegan/vegetarian however, the tasting menu cannot be changed so that is a bummer. IfThey do have some vegetarian options in the sharing menu but not a lot so keep in mind to check with your group prior to picking this place if the sharing menu works for everyone. You can also definitely order the meals yourself and not go for the group menu but I found the group menu great because we got a taste of everything and we didn't have to worry about not having enough. read more

Easily made a reservation for a Saturday night. Ambience inside the restaurant was immaculate and service was prompt. The happy hour drink special was a Paloma- which was delicious, not too sweet. I also tried the Jardin cocktail- very refreshing. For food we tried the caprese salad situation- very nice with a pesto base. Also got the fried fish dish which came with a very yummy tartar sauce. Overall 10/10 will definitely come back next time we are in the city. Lovely restaurant with delicious food and drinks at very reasonable prices. read more

The service was excellent - both attentive and kind. The ambiance was intimate and cozy and somehow artfully managed a balance between formal and informal. We split four tapas between the two of us and the dishes were creative and well balanced and we very much enjoyed them, but oh my, did we ever love the mille feuille and Paris-Brest we had for dessert! read more

This is a potentially racist establishment. We had made a reservation via Yelp for 2 at 6pm, and arrived at 5:55 to a nearly empty restaurant. The host did not honor our reservation, and told us 'We are totally booked for tonight', despite additional reservations being clearly available on the app (and all of the empty seating indoors and outdoors around us. I don't know why we were treated so poorly by this host. Perhaps because my friend was Asian, or perhaps because we spoke English. Either way, there's plenty of other great spots nearby - I suggest you try out another Mile End restaurant instead! read more

Actually I really liked the ambiance, the decorations and lighting was amazing , cocktails amazing! not a great service, the food was sooooo salty that ruins the whole taste of the food and the appetizers... unfortunately they really didn't apologize about it even ... I never gonna b back honestly... read more

Taza Flores - Tarte aux pommes - Tapas Bars Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

I really loved the place, it was cozy and in my reservation I requested that I wanted a place where we won't be too squeezed with other tables. They put us in the perfect spot so cozy and with a huge space! I appreciate this much! The decor was really cute ! The reason why I put 4 stars is just because the price was too high for the portion you get! However the staff were so friendly and respectful, the service was great, they do not come every two second to ask if everything is good ( I am the type of person that hates this when a waiter comes litteraly 10 times in 10 minutes) By the way the drink i took (Niagara on the lake) was delicious ! read more

Service was nice and the food tasted good. Unique small plates to try and many drink options. The only issue was that they did not have a menu in English but if you ask they can explain to you what they are! It was our first meal during the trip to Montreal and we had a good dinning experience. read more

One of the most hidden gems in Montreal! Came here around 9pm on a Thursday, not packed and very vibrant atmosphere. Food was INCREDIBLE. Hummus and pita was divine and orange blossom crème brûlée was one of the best I'be ever had. 100000/10 read more

Amazing tapas! We ordered two tapas per person and shared, everything was incredible. Great atmosphere and service. The waiter went over the entire menu with us and made great suggestions.

Taza Flores - La vie en rose - Tapas Bars Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Finally a true, comfy, fine place to go. Evening lights are precious on the wooden terrasse. Wines (rosé Touraine 2015 and the red Lopez de Hajo Rioja 2015) are carefully chosen, products are fresh and professionally -- if not always originally -- seasoned. On my Montreal to-do list! read more

I came here for Taste MTL and was not disappointed. $19 for three Tapas is a great deal, especially when you consider the quality of the food and the comfortable atmosphere. This restaurant looks like a really hip mile-end apartment that's been converted into a commercial space. The decoration is tasteful -- think vintage posters on the walls, exposed brick, coffered tin ceiling, and my favourite, dry branches with white lights hanging over the bar-- without being overdone. It's romantic and intimate but also seems like it would lend itself well to a small meeting among close friends. It was a little strange when we walked in. We had a reservation, but were seated at a table in the back next to the bathrooms. When I asked our host if we might be able to get one of the tables near the front window, he pointed to the signs that said "Reservée" and told me they were reserved. I was more than a little confused since we had a reservation but were not seated at a table with a reservée sign. Either this place has super-reservations, or there were some famous people dining there that night who I was not familiar with. All that being said, our waitress was incredibly sweet throughout the whole evening. When discussing which wine we should order by the glass, offered to let us taste the two we were deciding between. The cocktail menu and the wine list are nothing to write home about, but they're well priced and the wine list includes a few interesting discoveries. Now for the food. I began with the ceviche: tilapia with lime juice, coconut milk, coriander and ginger. For tapas the portion size was quite generous and it was lovely and refreshing dish. The cutting acidity of the lime was well balanced by the coconut milk and the coriander lent it a nice herbacity. My fiancee had the beef carpaccio which was quite good. No strange twists like you get in far too many restaurants trying to re-invent the wheel these days, just razor-thin beef slices, peppery-fresh arugula and parmesan shavings. Course number two involved the Cod Fritters for me and the Goat cheese croutons with grilled vegetables for my fiancee. Like the Carpaccio, the Cod Fritters were simple: just three traditional little fishcakes filled with delicious flaky Cod. The spicing was interesting, a little peppery and possibly some Old Bay which was nicely balanced by the tartar sauce. My fiancee's dish a little bit of a letdown, some slices of baguette with semi-firm (brie-like) goat cheese melted on little pieces of grilled vegetables. It was fine, but less exciting than she expected. Our final course included the Chorizo with a balsamic reduction and the artichoke stuffed with ham, bacon and mushrooms. To be honest, I found the Chorizo a little too spicy and was disappointed to find out that they did not make the sausage themselves. The stuffed artichoke was good, but the bacon/ham/mushroom combo was in a very rich cream sauce which made the dish just a little too heavy. All this being said, I would absolutely come back to Taza Flores without hesitation. It's a great place to grab a drink or two with some friends and to have some great snacks. I might not come back specifically for dinner, but then again, Tapas and Dinner are two very different meals. Taza Flores excels at Tapas and is a lovely place to hang out. read more

Pretty good tapas! A bit on the expensive side (on my standards), this is the kind of place that is fun to hang out at and have a few bites, but you don't want to show up very hungry, or you'll burn a small hole in your pocket. Dishes are well executed (all four that I tried), but they are small: - The FIGUES FRAICHES AUX PROSCIUTTO ET VIEUX CHEDDAR is just four small bites (but yammi!). - SALADE DE MANGUES, TOMATE CERISE, FIGUE, NOIX DE PIN & HALLOUM GRILLÉ, CHIMICHURRI is very good. - CHORIZO GRILLÉ, BALSAMIQUE RÉDUIT ET SAUCE PIRI PIRI MAISON is just a few slices of the chorizo but very well executed, and probably one of the more filling tapas they serve. - BOUCHEES DE POLENTA AU PARMESAN is a fried polenta, and very well executed. Service is pretty good. I might be back. read more

Having lived in this area of the Mile End for a little over a year, I can attest to the fact that Taza Flores is a gem that is frequented by mostly locals (especially by those who are attempting to be a bit frugal without sacrificing food quality). This spot also doesn't succumb to same aura of hipster-pretentiousness that plagues other restaurants/bars of the Mile End. Last night, I went with a few people and shared four tapas, including Eggplant Pizza; Cod Fritters; Grilled Chorizo; and the Vegetable Platter. All of these options were fantastic, flavourful, and made with delicate care by the chef in the bar area. Having initially expressed some skepticism around the cod fritters, this particular tapas ironically blew me away. It was fried as the name implies, and served with a rich and creamy tartar sauce. While the service was exceptionally good, I'd suggest in the future that they explain the options more in-depth without being prompted by the restaurant guests (ie. explain each aspect of the vegetable platter tapas). Fun tip: Go after 11pm and order three tapas for ~$23. read more

Stopped in this.cozy and quaint spot for a light dinner. I had the eggplant pizza with pesto and goat cheese along with the tomato and goat cheese in balsamic vinegar. I enjoyed both small plates very much. I also ordered a simple cosmopolitan, but it tasted so good! My friend ordered a couple of small plates, but she was upset bout them being out of both calamari and polenta. Overall, it was a nice experience. read more

Taza Flores - Atmosphere - Tapas Bars Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

I have been to this place a couple of times now, since I just moved in next door. The wait staff is very friendly and all the tapas dishes that I ordered were delish! Not to mention a decent selection of drinks. The actual space itself, both the inside and the outdoor terrasse are also very inviting and charming. It's just quite expensive. So be prepared to pay up! Haha. read more

I have said it before and will say it again but places where the music is too loud for you to have a nice conversation with your company without having to shout and break your voice are annoying. And places where they try to cramp as many people on the smallest surface as well. What are you trying to do? Break the world record for Most people in a meter square?! So, sure the food was good with a slight original hint but if this atmosphere screams at me to get out of there, that's what I will do and make sure I never go back. Expect to rake your wallet as well as it is a bit on the expensive side (I suppose you pay for the electricity consumed to blast the music so loud!) and you should definitely go grab drinks somewhere else afterwards or you'll just go poor. read more

My friends and I went to this restaurant as part of our week of Mtl a table. This adorable restaurant in the upper parts of Du Parc street is cozy and welcoming. That was a wonderful start! The night only got better with the food. Very Mediterranean, these tapas were the perfect size, very reasonably priced and delicious. The mango salad was a winner with very differing tastes of fruit, cheese and greens mixing exquisitely. The tajine d'agneau, the tilapia ceviche, the calamari and more. We were three and ordered 3 tapas each. This way we shared more and experienced a wider variety of tastes. That was one of the keys to this night being great-every dish was strong yet delicate. This was an amazing restaurant and I will definitely be going back. read more

We had the mango salad, ceviche, Accra's and calamari with cocktails and a glass of wine and everything was really delicious and fresh. Would go back anytime. read more

This place is great. It has an eclectic menu, but each of the 6 dishes we tried was great. To have not a single miss is impressive. Highly recommended are the Tagine with lamb, the walnut salad, the mango salad, the tarte tatin, lamb cigars, and the eggplant pizza. Service was excellent. Catherine was fantastic. This is a must-try place. read more

I am a complete fan of this place. The only downside is that it is a little bit pricy to go there very often but other than I am amazed. The food is completely amazing (N.B. Only tapas place), the staff is really good (especially the boss who is very nice). I mean they are nice, respectful and you can see that they do care about their customers. This place is an hidden gem and I am very happy that I found that. read more

We had such a great dinner here tonight! The manager was great and offered up great conversation for us out of towners. The menu is cold & hot tapas.

It feels so bad that this place wasn't event in the system base. Anyway, that being said, I've added this place. It's a Tapas bar and it's the first Tapas Bar I actually go. The concept is Spanish. In Spain everybody goes out EVERY night. Tapas is a great way of getting something to eat and drink some red spanish wine at the bar with friends. In North america, most concept is more like a restaurant and will have more sitting places with a trendy-young crowd. I had a lot to eat there actually and some drink there and there. Great selection of Drink and beer. The service seems a little bit confusing but looks like it was working pretty well. Different waiter/waitresses during the meal but friendly and efficient. I had Beef Carpaccio = super great, with a small cresson salad and old grinded chedar, the texture+ taste was awesome. Anneth Smoked Salmon = a classic but the quality was really the top. Extremly fresh Grilled Octopus on a lens salad: WOW! Now the salad is extremly great with crouton or bread and the Octopus, never ate some octopus as good as this. It's so great that if you go there, build over the predjudice you might have against octopus because it's tender, the meat is tasty and smoke-ish (because it's grilled). Bacon dates with chiorizo and nuts: with a balsamic / rasberry reduction: Ok now that's so great that as soon as I had one in my mouth, I had already pick up the other one to eat it right away. It's pretty sweet but the spicy taste of chiorizo is great. Grilled Chorizo with balsam reduction: Ok it's sums it all: hmm Seafood Casserole gratin with a nice cheese sauce; It doesn't overpower the seafood taste and it's really great quality. Lamb and Olive Tajine with lemon and ginger confit: that's great, with fresh coriander, nice small potato. Really nice to share with friend a plate. The more the Merrier is definetely something that apply to that kind of restaurant! read more

I was so disappointed with my experience there for the mtl a table. The carpaccio was so salty, the ceviche was disgusting, the tortilla was a disgusting quich filled with potatoes, the tartare was not eatable and the artichaut looked like wet dog food. I don't recommend this place to anyone. The only up side was the service, the decor and the wine. read more

The best Tapas in Montreal. Great location and every thing on the menu is mouth watering. I loved the stuffed artichoke with mushrooms and ham . Great wine selection and you can sit in the out door deck and watch the Rolls Royces and Mercedes pull up to the Valet parking at the rich and famous restaurant ( Milos ). Next door Love the spot and atmosphere. read more

I love Taza Flores! The place looks good and the terrace is very pleasant in the summer. The service is very friendly and attentive. And everything on the menu is really really good. I've been going for years and it never fails. My favorite are the lamb tajine, the chorizo, the eggplant pizza and the mergez in tomato sauce. It is a bit expensive for the size of the portions, but they put love into it. read more

So I made a reservation on YELP. When we arrived we were told they don't accept reservations. Having received a confirmation didn't convince, whom I believe was the owner, that indeed they appear to do so. Neither did the fact a few tables had "reserved" signs on them. Other than the reserved-sign tables, I was invited to wait until a table became available. Needless to say I didn't. Instead we went to Le Margaux down the street, and had a wonderful dinner there. I won't be returning to Taza Flores any time soon. My suggestion is you don't go there either. There are enough good restaurants in Montreal who appreciate their customers business and deserve our patronage. Apparently Taza is not one of these. read more

Service,food, and cocktails were excellent! You must try the hallumi cheese salad, grilled octopus, beef tartar, calamari, grilled chorizo,and duck confit fries. Drinks are strong and tasty-peach martini and mojito. Service was friendly, prompt, attentive and gave good suggestions for discos. Highly recommend! read more

Nestled on the edge of Mile End is this golden nugget - an intimate tapas restaurant offering a heightened gustatory experience and great service to boot! They recommend 2 tapas per person, which is absolutely the right amount to order. Highly recommend the ceviche de poisson, bouchees de polenta, and salade de mangues. The Godfather scotch drink was fantastique aussi! read more

I love this tapas place. The portions are generous and the price is reasonable! I always enjoy eating there. Most of the time the servers are really nice, but there is a lady that works there that is really rude. She seats us sometimes but she never shares a smile or answer really sharply to my questions. I'm not sure she still works there but I hope this would not stop anyone from coming back since the food is really amazing. My favourites are the hummus, the guacamole, the mozzarella tomatoes, the lamb tajine, the shrimps and so many more... read more

A little loud, but great food and great, speedy service. Good wine list, and the ambiance was cool. The octopus was . A bit pricy, and if you've had tapas beforehand, you know the portions are made for small sharing. read more

This place has been one of my top favorite bars since I moved to Montreal. Until last night, food was great, drinks were good but that one older looking waiter was incredibly rude. Took forever between each time to get any sort of service, didnt even bother to look at the table once to check if we needed anything. I had to literally get up and walk to him to the bar (as he was having a beer) to ask for service. He didn't even have the courtesy to apologize he was actually arguing with me about how many minutes passed since he was last at my table. To make matters worse he just kept asking me what do I want, even when I wasn't done talking he just cut me off and asked what is it do I want, in a super condescending and just Incredibly rude manner. Unfortunate because I was raving about Taza ores to the person I was with before going. That waiter turned me off from the place entirely. Felt unwelcome and unwanted. Not coming again and no longer recommending to friends. (The hostess at the door was sweet an lovely however!) read more

This place had an amazing atmosphere. The exposed brick, with the green plants made it trendy and fun. The food was delicious! We had the mango salad based on several other yelp reviews (which was great) but LOVED the beef Takia (spelling?). The service was wonderful as they explained the dishes and made great recommendations. Overall, great place! read more

I went a couple months ago. All I remember is the steak tartare, which was very grey. I asked the waiter since I'm more used to tartare being bright red. He said that they let it cure in lime juice because they're doing something "different than everyone else". That's fine. I personally did not think it looked appetizing or tasted good. I don't remember the rest of the food, but it wasn't great or terrible. read more
