50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Montreal

“We are visiting and stumbled across Au Pied dr Cochon. Everyone there was so helpful in getting us a table even though it was very busy and our waiter Emile was absolutely wonderful! He gave us great recommendations and great service. The food was absolutely delicious. 10/10 recommend!“

“I've been wanting to experience Joe beef for a very long time. As you walk in, it felt very cozy and welcoming, as we were greeted by this very friendly hostess. The staff were efficient, and our waiter was great as well. He explained the menu in detail. We wanted to share some of the dishes as I knew it would be way too much food, and also because we've also ordered some appetizers. We took home so much food home, the portions for the shareable dishes were very generous. The wait for the food was on the longer side, as well as for the cocktails. Overall, the food was delicious, but my expectations were high, and I think I've expected a tad more, in some of the dishes.“

“The food of this place and the customer service are really disgusting🤮🤮🤮🤮“

“Service impeccable. Décor très chaleureux et Nourriture vraiment exceptionnelle. Tout les plats étaient savoureux !“

“Gabriel et Grace. Enough said. There wasn’t a request that was denied and we could not be more grateful. Was not my first time but definitely my favourite. Every dish was ridiculously good no matter what we ordered. We had the razor clams, radicchio blue cheese salad, croquettes, beef tartare, a few other amazing dishes I’m missing but by far the best was the smoked meat shepherds pie, insane.“

“A wonderful dining experience. Food, service and ambiance. Nora Gray delivers 😍“

“✨ Samedi soir inoubliable ✨ Après un concert intimiste Candlelight au 9e, j’ai poursuivi la soirée au réputé Café Ferreira, une véritable institution portugaise au cœur de Montréal. Dès l’entrée, les effluves envoûtants de la cuisine m’ont séduite. Service impeccable, rapidité et fraîcheur irréprochable. 🌊 En entrée, des huîtres sur glace d’une fraîcheur exquise, relevées d’une mignonnette au vinaigre vieilli : un pur délice marin. 🍲 En plat principal, la bouillabaisse aux poissons et fruits de mer — généreuse, riche en saveurs, et tout simplement succulente. J’ai savouré chaque bouchée avec gratitude. 🍮 Et pour clore cette expérience : le pastel de nata maison accompagné de glace… une douceur portugaise qui a parfaitement scellé cette soirée magique. Une expérience culinaire raffinée, où chaque détail était pensé pour sublimer le moment. 🌹“

“The slice of kouign amann cake I ordered was incredible. So buttery! The gentleman who served me was lovely. The coffee was delicious. The next time I am in Montréal, I will definitely call ahead and order a full cake!“

“Le service à l'accueil et aux tables est incroyable. Les plats sont beaux à l'oeil et savoureux ! C'est une belle découverte pour moi. Je recommande à 100% !“

“Fabulous inventive food and a special light touch with seafood . Expensive but worth it . The Picine cocktail is the best.“

“Insane food ! Great service nice vibe I would recommend!“

“Me encanto la comida, el maracuyá sour me hizo regresar a Perú. El ambiente y el personal súper agradable. Definitivamente, regreso y recomiendo. ☺️“

“Bon, beau, service impec!“

“Came for the soup dumplings! Delicious! Also had some fried beef & curry dumplings. I highly recommend this restaurant!“

“This is a must stop when I visit Montreal. Great atmosphere, and best pasta!“

“Pleasant atmosphere & great food“

“Un chef attentionné, des mets savoureux et original et des pâtes à la perfection“

“Bonne ambiance , qualité des plats sont incroyable ! Viande tendre légumes frais je recommande“

“I’ve been there at least a dozen times since it has opened… both on personal lunch/dinners or on business events. It’s been consistently a great experience . The menu is both inventive and beautifully executed. The service is attentive, but not overbearing. The cocktail and wine list are excellent (although the wine list is devoid of good deals…). Overall, a great experience“

“I dined here on July 12, 2025 so my review is quite late. The staff may remember because when I told them the name of my reservation they made fun of me and were like “Gary’s here guys, table for Garyyyyy. Gary???” I thought it was hilarious and so did my gf.

Anyways the atmosphere in the summer was amazing. Seated outside around the ferns on the back patio. My gf and I had an outstanding dining experience. Had a very nice bottle of quebecois wine. Enjoyed some corned beef croquettes, the pickle salad, some delicious zucchini, this chicken and clams dish and the steak frites. Finished off with a basque cheesecake and this really refreshing vanilla ice cream and strawberry sorbet dessert that really hit the spot on that extremely hot day. My gf was very thankful I ordered that ice cream in that moment, it came in pretty clutch.

Our server was awesome, very helpful, chill and attentive. He looked like the son of the hotel concierge in home alone 2 and I found that pretty funny. Yeah this place was amazing, we loved it.“

“Came for MTL á Table promotion - a wonderful evening! This was high level cooking in a style I didn`t know, sub-Saharan African specialties and inspiration. The servers were warm, professional, knowledgeable and courteous. The atmosphere was cozy but not cramped with music that was not too loud and convivial. And the food was great - every dish came out perfectly, beautifully presented, delicious even though it was unfamiliar (part of the appeal). From the dual eggplant with watercress foam stew appetizer through the cooked banana with light chocolate and biscuit dessert, all was done to perfection. My main course (Palette of Bon Bœuf low-temperature beef, lacquered with tomato juice flavoured with curry and turmeric, butternut squash purée, potato cromesquis, marinated zucchini roll) was amazingly tender and delicious. Artful and satisfying, we will be back! An additional thanks for using warm serving plates, which kept the delicious hot food warm without rushing through it! It`s a sign of a good restaurant that knows what it`s doing. Highly recommended!“

“The vibes in this bar are *gorgeous*—super aesthetic in a way you genuinely wouldn’t expect from the exterior. I came for a friend’s birthday and it was such a fun spot for a night out.

Cocktail prices are pretty much in line with every other downtown Montreal bar, so you’re not really coming here for a “deal,” but the drinks were **really yummy** and well made.

Food-wise: we ordered the **party platter** and I honestly wouldn’t recommend it. It’s marketed as a mix of smaller appetizers in one platter, but it felt like only 2–3 actual items from the menu, with **a huge portion of the platter being crudités**—and it was **$74**. That said, the sauces/dips that came with it were amazing, especially the **chimichurri**.

The mains helped recover the experience a bit. I had the **burger**—it was a good portion if you want something heavier, but mine was a little dry and kind of cold. Not bad, just not extraordinary. The **fries**, though? Dangerous. Genuinely addictive—best “drunk bar fries” I’ve had in a while.

Service was another standout: the waitress and staff were super hands-on and attentive, which we really appreciated. Overall, the drinks and ambiance were the highlights for me, and I definitely wouldn’t be surprised if I ended up back here again.“

“très bon service, très bonne bouffe, on reviendra c'est certain! merci!“

“There are Time Out Markets around the world, mainly in North America and Europe, and the Montreal location is no exception—it’s excellent. You’ll find a wide variety of restaurants and food types to choose from, all in a food-court style setting. The atmosphere is lively, and there are also bars serving drinks and cocktails.
Beyond the food, the market often hosts special events and guest chefs, so you can enjoy unique culinary experiences. Overall, a great spot for food lovers with plenty of options under one roof.

Do keep in mind that since it’s located downtown Montreal, parking can be a challenge. The easiest option is to use the indoor parking at the mall or other lots nearby, though some are less convenient.“

“An exceptional culinary experience, one of the very best restaurants in Montreal. The flavors are beautiful, well-defined, and each element of the dish is recognizable, which is not always the case in other restaurants. This is surely due to the chef's talent. It's the ideal place to invite a special person. If the music were a little less loud, it would be perfect.“

“Fantastic place to eat. DJ was our server and we absolutely adored every minute being there. DJ gave us some recommendations, my brother liked it so much he ordered take out for tomorrow since we are headed home. 10/10, DJ was absolutely wonderful.“

“Excellent déjeuner avec une serveuse souriante et attentionnée!!!j’ai adoré“

“Otto Yakitori is the spot if you’re craving incredible grilled skewers and a fire atmosphere. The food is consistently excellent — every skewer is packed with flavor and cooked perfectly.

You also can’t ask for better service. Fanny and Kina always take care of you with genuine hospitality, and Coco, the manager, is super kind and welcoming.

Honestly, it’s one of the best places to chill, eat well, and enjoy the vibe. Highly recommend!“

“Un incontournable ❣️ Ambiance décontractée, plats simples, abordables et surtout, délicieux. Chaque plat est savoureux et on sent que le tout est préparé avec beaucoup de soin. C'est un bijou comme endroit.“

“Glad to see this place is still opened from the original launch. Their pizza dough is awesome. Light and just right. The four cheese either red or white is amazing. One of my favourites. So simple but also not really simple. Iykyk. So good.“

“Excellent dining experience on our last night in Montreal. Cool atmosphere and yummy food! Service was top notch and Jeremy was the best!“

“I can't get enough of Oplante. The food is so delicious, there's so much variety and the quality of the food is great. The service is absolutely wonderful, the staff is so friendly and welcoming.

I'll definitely be back and soon! Thank you for the great dinners!“

“Tres bonne pizza au four à bois“

“We had the best time at Shay Food was Devine . The staff was wonderful especially Pamelaour Server. Oliver was most charming and welcoming. We will definitely come back . ❤️“

“Incredible food! Some of the best sushi I've had! Can't wait to go back!“

“Mon restaurant préféré à Montréal! Mon chum et moi y allons dès que nous souhaitons passer une belle soirée.“

“Une autre visite pour un souper improvisé chez Toqué! en sortant d'un musée. La météo avait causé des annulations et nous avions le choix d'une table ou d'une place au bar. Avant même d'ouvrir la porte, le valet nous reçoit en souriant, ce qui règle pour nous la question du parking. L'expérience commence bien avant d'entrer. Pas de menu dégustation pour nous cette fois. On choisi des entrées, plats et desserts, tous avec un accord de vin. Il ne faut pas se gêner de demander des suggestions au sommelier. Un autre sans faute. Service professionnel et chaleureux. Des plats inventifs et savoureux.“

“The Lomo Saltado dish was great, hits the taste buds really well. The El Cacao desert is the cherry on top after a Lomo Saltado. The yuca fries on the other hand are a 5/10 as i prefer the texture and flavour of a fresh cut yuca fry instead of this iteration of a yuca fry. But others may enjoy this type of yuca fry, the sauces with this are great too.

Great restaurant. I recommend !“

“Probably the best breakfast in Montreal, eclectic space with fantastic flavors. Breakfast classics with a delicious twists! Great service! Thanks Audrey! Highly recommend!“

“Excellent, super service! La nourriture est décadente!“

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

“Recomiendo la comida, es muy buena, felicitaciones al chef!!“

“100% satisfaits de notre souper avant d'aller à un spectacle à la Place des Arts. Conseils judicieux de notre serveuse. Portions généreuses et nourrissantes. Plats savoureux. Service rapide et chaleureux. Merci à notre serveuse Isabelle pour son sourire radieux!“

“Great food. Funky decor. Party atmosphere!“

“J'ai pris l'assiette de dégustation végane. Tout était délicieux. J'avais hâte de goûter à la cuisine éthiopienne et je n'ai pas été déçue, c'était vraiment excellent.“

“My son and I had a great dinner. The staff was lovely, food was good and they accommodated all my toddler customizations! We will definitely be back!“
