Canadian Restaurants in Montreal, QC

“One of the best meals we had in Montreal, and we particularly enjoyed the Bluefin Tartare, Maitake, and Kohlrabi. The sauce used for the Kohlrabi had a nice spicy punch which was really nice. The Grassfed Angus Beef was juicy and tender too!

Wanted to thank our server — Bruno, for being so welcoming and helpful! He was also very knowledgeable in explaining the menu and recommending the wines to pair with our food.“

“The menu was unique and the waiter did an amazing job of explaining the dishes. In addition, an extra treat, chef Robert came to the table. The service was great and we were encouraged to try food that we otherwise might not have tried. The tuna main was excellent, as well as the pork shank.“

“A solid five stars! ⭐️ The ham was sliced so thin it melted in the mouth (made us wanting to buy a cutting machine). The Shishito peppers (a daily special) were perfectly grilled to perfection. The wines were both funky and delicious. The atmosphere strikes the perfect balance between cool and relaxing. Absolutely nothing to complain, and we can’t wait to visit again!“

“Expérience unique , de découverte et dans un ambiance vraiment remarquable !“

“Tucked away at the back of a church this restaurant is truly a hidden gem. We sat at the chefs table and were able to see all the food being prepared and ask the chefs more details about the food. We had the wine pairing menu which was excellent. Our server was very accommodating as one of the wines was not to our taste and they quickly replaced it with an excellent choice. The flavours in each course were delicious and made want to savour every bite. We will definitely be returning to Restaurant Candide again.“

“Phenomenal dinner experience. Attentive service from the beginning and throughout our time there. Service was a tad too fast paced, but always with great care. Best fish of my life. My husband had the contre filet and was also very pleased. We'll be back soon!“

“Beautiful food and service! A bit pricey- an occasional splurge. Had the halibut - cooked to perfection with squash and a burned butter sauce with pumpkin seeds - delicious. Partner had Jagerschnitzel - good sized portion with delicious mushroom sauce. Service by waiter and busboy very attentive and friendly.“

“Excellent menu!! C’est très varié et original, mais ils réussissent à bien agencer le tout (on avait 7 plats différents sans compter les desserts) Mentions spéciales aux gnocchi, à la joue de veau et au plat de champignons pleurotes ! Service super sympathique et efficace!“

“WoW! Meilleur resto en ville 👍 service et nourriture A1“

“Un coup de coeur gigantesque pour le Mastard, et ce avant même l’étoile Michelin. Que du plaisir et les papilles au paradis“

“Best tartare we have ever had! Fabulous meal! Wow!“

“Exceptional food, tastefully presented. Our server, Eve, was very attentive without hovering. Not inexpensive but my wife and I thought a very good value for the quality of our dinners and service. For such a busy restaurant the noise level was quite subdued enabling us to have pleasant conversation. We've already booked our second dinner date there.“

“Ce restaurant n’est rien de moins qu’une perle rare. Nous y étions hier et ce fut une expérience gastronomique extraordinaire. Et extraordinaire ne reflète pas notre très grande appréciation et satisfaction pour les œuvres d’arts qui nous furent servis. Oeuvres d’art sont les mots justes. À découvrir et à répéter.“

Food quality and service were both incredibly good. Team is warm, funny, informal and very professional at the same time.

5 stars!!“

“Comfortable, ambiance chaleureuse“

“I ordered a large popcorn and bacon poutine for delivery, it was excellent!
Good fries, rich sauce and lots of cheese ?

Fast delivery and everything arrived hot.

Be careful, the large portion is very generous ?I had to finish it the next day?“

“The food was delicious!!!“

“Juste wow Merci très belle découverte!“

“I went there enough times to forget how many! I love that spot! The food is always great and the staff is caring and nice. The food is always surprising and delicious and don’t get me started on the desserts! Plane and simple advice: Just go there!“

“La bière est évidemment excellent et la guédille de homard est légendaire.“

“It was so good. I rarely give reviews online, but this was definitely worth it. Everything was great and the food was so flavorful. The only thing, I would have appreciated if the server did a last call at our table and asked if we wanted something else before closing the kitchen (like most places do for food and bar) because I would have ordered dessert before the kitchen closed...I was celebrating a birthday. Otherwise, everything was good.“

“La cuisine est excellente! Les employés sont courtois et respectueux. Les portions sont généreuses“

“J’ai commandé une tourtière et un ragoût de boulettes, pour les fêtes. C’était absolument délicieux. Vous m’avez permis de vivre un réveillon saguenéen, malgré la distance. Merci infiniment.“

“Went here last night with my wife, and 10 year old daughter. Great location, wonderful and friendly staff. We had raw oysters, lobster fettuccine, risotto, bone marrow, a couple drinks and dessert. Was great food, and experience. We would definitely return next time we are in town.“

“Food and service is exceptional. But what really stands out from any other restaurant is you feel like family and very obvious how much they care. Hands on with the owner, it all starts from the top! Will definitely go back- i highly recommend.“

“Fantastic service! Exceptionally tasty poutine made with fresh ingredients! A must try!“

“We came here for brunch and were impressed by the wide variety of choices. The portions are generous, and the prices are reasonable. However, the menu was very dirty and sticky, which was off-putting. It would be much better if the menu were updated and cleaned, and some improvements to the food would also be appreciated.“

“sa fais 3 fois que nous allons sejournée a montreal et c notre restaurant favoris l'assiette de brochette souvlaki au poulet avec salade riz patate 👌!! prix abordable et que dire de la serveuse manon super sociable qui nous a servi !! rien a redire on va y retourner c sur!! prochaine visite pizza-ghetti 🥰“

“Fabulous French Onion Soup.Lovely food. Well priced. Really friendly staff. would definitely recommend a visit.“

“What an exquisite atmosphere! I could hardly tell the difference form this restaurant from the actual cave i visited in Afghanistan when i was 12 years old. They served me a samosa that was an absolute delicacy. I prefer these samosas to the indian ones!!! The servers were incredibly polite despite the fact i do not understand arabic! 10/10!“

“I’m so glad we came here! Good food for a hangry family.“

“Fantastic service! Exceptionally tasty poutine made with fresh ingredients! A must try!“

“Bonne ambiance, espace entre les tables.“

“Thanks to Martine for her excellent service! If you're wondering what it's like to be well received and served at a restaurant, a waitress who really cares about your well-being and makes you feel like someone special, come see Martine!

A smile and contagious good humor start the day off well, especially for lunch :)

Thanks again for the excellent service, you really made our day Saturday!“

“I was totally impressed by the friendly service and hard workers trying to satisfy all their clients. The atmosphere is perfect and the food is the best I have had in a long time! I have tried several items on the menu and each one was delicious! You can tell the Chef has plenty of experience and takes pride in what he prepares for his customers! How anyone can have negative criticism is beyond me?? If you can't find anything positive to say then why say anything at all! I'm sure you will be back all you Karen's!! ?“

“Couldn't stay long as I was busy and on travel, tried the onion bacon poutine : it was really good, thin sliced caramelized onions and big strips of bacon.

I don't know what happened with my second coke, it errupted like the Etna when I put my straw in it, sorry for the little mess and grazie for the quick cleaning, even though I'd have liked cleaning it myself.

Speaking of Sicily, it seemed like you have a family business, or it gives that vibe. Not sure if you're Sicilian too or from elsewhere in the Mediterranea, but all the employees and/or family members there made me feel like I was eating with neighbours in Messina or Santa Lucia (or elsewhere in the South, for that matter, love Campania or Calabria and those funny Pugliese too). Gorgeous family and/or team and friends, diu ti benedica.

From a Lipari (mother side).“
