text: The night my friend and I decided to go to Amigos was a very good case of simple curiosity high hopes and then the sobering and crashing reality I do not have my qualms with bad Mexican food hell I eat at Taco Bell at least once a month and that is about as shitty as it gets but when I go to a sit down Mexican restaurant I expect a higher standard Now do not get me wrong Amigos was not Taco Bell quality it was higher quality food but prepared hastily served by an unhappy waiter who was practically chewing his nails to get out of work nn When walking into the fauxfiesta lit restaurant I really wanted to enjoy myself but the poor quality food and lackluster waiter who paid most attention to us when it came time to tip than he did the rest of the evening did not meet my standards for a good dining experience The waiter unfortunately was moody the whole time he was serving us but I chose to ignore the fact and plot my revenge later on Yelp I ordered sangria which was more water than wine and an enchilada that was served with poor cuts of chicken breast topped in a very dismal green sauce I wanted kick and spice had not any of these people seen Speedy Gonzalez Mexican food should always strive to get that kind of reaction out of people Perhaps the Canadians are too far away from Mexico to understand the treats of a quality enchilada but I was less than impressed with the dish If you wanted a witty remark like Fiesta More like Siesta unfortunately you will not find it here nn In the end the price was definitely not worth it St Denis is a large street with many options you want good booze Try the Microbrewery Les Brasseurs across the street You want ethnic food Try Zyng right up the block Both will do food and booze much more justice than this place The waiter the loud overwhelming atmosphere and the poor excuse for ethnic food to me were not worth the near I spent when there are plenty of other better and cheaper options on such an active street
