Across Canada, Montreal is known for its food. From casual eateries to fine dining restaurants, Montreal sums up the tasty treat for all the people who come here. It also has all sorts of cuisines, which are unique in their own way. So you are sorted if you are a foodie and wondering where to go in Montreal to get your tummy filled. I am saying this because the restaurants here are known for their mouth-watering dishes and unique flavours that will keep you delighted. Have a look:

1. Le Serpent

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by Restaurant Le Serpent (@restaurantleserpent)

Le Serpent is a restaurant that specializes in Italian cuisine. People who came here loved the restaurantโ€™s ambience and atmosphere. You will also find a wine bar and ample seating space. It perfectly blends and bridges the gap between atmosphere and craving for quality food, so most people prefer hosting celebrations here.

Le Serpent is known for and regarded highly for its well-executed desserts, so leave some space after your main course because I am sure, you donโ€™t want to miss out on these fantastic desserts.

Location: 257 Rue Prince

2. Au Pied De Cochon

A post shared by Au Pied de Cochon (@pieddecochon)

My next recommendation is Au Pied De Cochon. It has made a remarkable presence in Montreal for quite a long time. It has significance in Le Plateau-Mont-Royal, with many foodies coming here to give their tastebuds a fantastic treat with the brunch menu. They largely focus on Quebecois cuisine with averagely priced fares.

And to your surprise, let me tell you this. It is also home to many celebrity shows. For example- Celebrity Chef Anthony Bourdain visited the Au Pied De Cochon for his show โ€œNo Reservationsโ€.ย 

Foie Gras is a food item made from the liver of birds like geese and ducks. It is sometimes fattened by gavage. Foie Gras is extremely popular in this restaurant, as every day it is one of the top-selling dishes in Montreal. It is rich in nutrients and vitamins, so I highly recommend you try Foie Gras when you get to Au Pied de Cochon. The Duck in A Can is also a stand-out dish.

Location: 6 Rue Coquilliรจre

3. Joe Beef

A post shared by Joe Beef (@joebeef)

If you ever get to Montreal and leave without eating at Joe Beef, you will regret it! There are both Canadian and French cooking methods adopted. Fresh seafood is something for which people love going here. โ€œIt is worth the priceโ€œ, is what most reviewers say.

At Joe Beef, you must try their Lobster Spaghetti and Lobster Pasta. It is a jaw-dropping dish packed with flavours and the freshness of the lobster. The protein overpowers the whole dish, so it is loved by all who visit here. Moreover, steaks are a part of the cityโ€™s culture and one of the signatures of Joe Beef.

Location: 2491 Notre-Dame St W

4. Le Petit Alep

A post shared by Tastet Guide (@tastet.ca)

Let me tell you about a classic sidewalk bistro that deals with the processing of Mediterranean, Armenian, and Middle Eastern cuisine with its Canadian touch. Itโ€™s none other than Le Petit Alep. It has a lot of Syrian food, which has been very appealing to visitors. It is also known for its wine bar and cocktails.

Chicken Kebab and all other non-vegetarian items are on point here. So we must say, the art-lined walls and some freshly cooked Chicken Kebab would be an ideal getaway for you and your friends.

Location: 191 Rue Jean-Talon E

5. Arthurโ€™s Nosh Bar

A post shared by Ocรฉane | Food | Travel (@favplacestogo)

Known for its elegant food along with a beautiful ambiance, Arthurโ€™s Nosh Bar is one awesome restaurant and raw bar. I must say it bridges the fine line between quality and great food. It is highly regarded for its amazing food options which attract visitors all day as it also serves breakfast. It is easily accessible and has a casual sitting experience where all diners sit and relax.

It follows Jewish Cuisine and leaves no stone unturned in satisfying customers and all their demands. The breakfast is served in a stylish space, and the sandwiches are a top seller during the morning hours. Many guests opt for the sandwiches as itโ€™s the best seller in Arthurโ€™s Nosh Bar.

Location: 4621 Notre-Dame St W

6. Schwartzโ€™s Deli

A post shared by Schwartz's Deli Montreal (@schwartzs_deli_mtrl)

Schwartzโ€™s Deli is amongst the oldest. Do you know itโ€™s a world-famous restaurant for smoked meat? It is known for its old-school Canadian food, which is loved by people even today. The deli is close to 90 years old, and the owner has no intention of letting go of it.

Fun Fact โ€“ the famous singer Celine Dion partly owns this place!

With more than 1000 guests coming every day, food is sure to be fresh and hot. The proteins and non-vegetarian options are sought after in this restaurant.ย The Smoked Meat Sandwich is served on top of Rye Bread along with a topping of yellow mustard, which is the most popular dish in Schwartzโ€™s Deli.

Location: 3895 St Laurent Blvd

7. Four Seasons

A post shared by Four Seasons Hoฬ‚tel Montreฬal (@fsmontreal)

I will tell you about a popular 5-star hotel there; itโ€™s Four Seasons. Apart from just the restaurants, there are close to 170 luxurious rooms with excellent room service.

There are several restaurants here as Head Chef Marcusโ€™s restaurants stand out and appeal to many people. Although prices may seem high compared to others, the food is outstanding which makes many guests visit here.

I found this place ideal for a late-night dinner date where you must try the Fried Yard Bird with Gravy, one of Chef Marcusโ€™ signature dishes. Moreover, the lounge and bar promise to give you some of the best drinks and natural wine in Montreal. You can always mix and match, to make yourself the best drink.ย 

Location: 1440 Rue de la Montagne

8. Mucca

A post shared by MUCCA Restaurant (@muccamtl)

I know Italian food is among the most loved foods all over the world. And people often want to visit an Italian restaurant wherever they travel. Situated in the Little Italy neighbourhood, Mucca is an Italian restaurant famous for its non-vegetarian options. Right from Beef to Chicken Poutine, it has a name for itself in the restaurant industry in Montreal. It is also known for using healthy options in both seafood and other eateries. It has its very own steakhouse and pasta centre, which is distinct.

Beef Tartare is a dish that involves serving raw meat while acing French-style cooking. Beef Tartare and their famous tomato sauce and tamarind sauce are also popular dishes at Mucca. Bone Marrow and Oyster Mushrooms are also favourites here. The House-Smoked Salmon is also a stand-out dish in this restaurant.ย 

Location: 236 Rue Saint-Zotique E

9. Sushi Momo

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by Momo (@sushimomomtl)

Sushi Momo is a popular Japanese-based restaurant that deals with Japanese Entrees. The most memorable part of this restaurant is that the chef wanted to give vegans the experience of eating sushi, so he started selling his famous Vegan Sushi. Guests have loved Vegan Sushi ever since it came into the frame. I recommend you try it at least once.

As the name suggests, small sushi plates are most popular in Sushi Momo. Here you can also find natural wines that are not popular in many restaurants. Apart from this, Croque Monsieur is also very popular. It also takes up catering and gluten-free options for its people. In short, it is a healthy yet yummy treat for sushi lovers!

Location: 3609 Saint-Denis St

10. Crew Collective & Cafรฉ

A post shared by Crew Collective & Cafe (@crewcollectivecafe)

Next on my list is the Crew Collective & Cafรฉ. It is a chilling cafรฉ with small eating options to fill your tummies, including soups, milkshakes, and sandwiches. This cafรฉ is also open for those who want to work or catch up for a date and not just for fun times.

The Hot Dogs and melted cheese are every personโ€™s favourite, right? Steamed Bun is also quite famous in this restaurant.ย 

With an averagely priced tasting menu, the cafรฉ has attracted many people to try out its new and yummy dishes. The cafรฉ is known for having a beautiful ambience and architectural view. So, if you are someone who wants to get a historical view while sipping some coffee, this is your go-to place.

Location: 360 Rue Saint-Jacques

11. Chalet Bar BQ

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by Rรฉal Gauvin (@realien62)

Chalet Bar BQ is also quite popular in Montreal and Iโ€™ll tell you the reason behind it. People have loved the BBQ flavours that are packed in the juicy chicken, which is one of the reasons why it is open and functioning well even today.

The variety of chicken that it offers includes Rotisserie Chicken, Portuguese Chicken, and Grilled Half Chicken. People have loved the chicken here as they say it is juicy and tender and doesnโ€™t compromise on anything.

If you get here, check out the Omakase tasting menu to get an idea of the chef specials. The dining room of this place gives ample space for enjoying the beautiful ambience.

Location: 5456 Sherbrooke St W

Check out this map I shared for your convenience:

Well, I hope I was able to help you find some of theย best restaurants in this city. Apart from the ones mentioned above, there are many other amazing restaurants in the city like The Liverpool House known for their amazing oysters and other seafood. Le Club Chasse is another romantic getaway where you can enjoy some yummy grilled octopus with some cream cheese curds. They will indeed be a delight for your tummies! Check them out and give your tastebuds a sweet treat after youโ€™re done!

Bon Appetit!
