What User likes about Cartel:
I wasn't sure what to expect after looking at their menu. The place has a very varied mix of dishes...Mexican and Asian for example. My wife and I shared the beef and pulled chicken taco , both were excellent but the chicken might be too spicy for some. View all feedback. What User doesn't like about Cartel:
Mon mari et moi avions envie d'un lobster roll et nous avons vue que ce restaurant le proposait. Pour 70$ pour les deux, nous avons eu droit a un petit pain hot dog très gras (beurré à l'extrême ) avec une petite quantité de homard. Je n'ai même pas ressentie le goût du homard. Portion extrêmement petite. Pour avoir déjà manger le vrai lobster roll du Maine, laissez moi vous que celui là est tres mauvais et loin d'êt... View all feedback.

We went to the restaurant for dinner on the weekend. There were 6 of us and we had no trouble finding a table since the place was not full.

This restaurant is alright. It's usually easy to find a table without much of a wait, except on taco Tuesdays.

In terms of the concept, a fusion restaurant combining Peruvian and Mexican cuisine called "Cartel" seems a bit odd, but I was pleasantly surprised when I tried...

Cartel offers a unique fusion of Peruvian and Mexican cuisine, with dishes like chijaukay chicken that impress. The vibe is cozy, reminiscent of Cuba, but some find the food disappointing. Highlights include $1 oysters, delicious cocktails, and standout dishes like salmon sashimi and fish tacos. The ambiance is enhanced by pleasant staff and beautiful interior design. While some diners experienced issues with small portions and overpriced lobster rolls, others raved about the exceptional tacos and unique culinary experience. Overall, Cartel is a must-visit spot for those seeking a different take on traditional Peruvian and Mexican street food in Montreal.
