Where to Find Montreal’s Freshest Fish and Seafood
From oysters to urchin, whole grilled fish and more
montreal.eater.com
I've been coming here for a decade+ and Montreal has easily the best food in all of North America (sorry NYC, California, Mexico City, I am biased)
Joe Beef used to be really good but I think it changed after David McMillan left, I've been there 10+ times
Bouillon Bilk is incredibly good and has never disappointed
Au Pied Du Cochon will slaughter you with heavy foods
L'avenue is good for breakfast/brunch but the wait times are usually god awful
Vin Mon Lapin is #1 right now in my opinion
If you want good Chinese food, I have been to asia 5+ times and the only place I think is decent is maybe nouilles de lan zhou. The line seems long but it's not as bad as l'avenue and it moves faster.
Bathroom is god awful to find though and you have to go downstairs --> take the elevator to the second floor of a mini mall and walk around.

The Joe Beef major changes occured when former chef Gabriel Drapeau also left, at the same time as McMillan. His departure had a major impact on the menu.
100% agree with this list. You are kind to your taste buds
Vin Mon Lapin truly is the latest hit in Montreal. DELICIOUS!! I love the youthful vibe in the kitchen. The few times I've gone, I've had a blast...
The day Joe Beef removed the double down from the menu is the day everything started going down. They always suggest the damn lobster pasta plate which really bothers me. Its good, but its quite a "simple" dish compared to my expectations of the level of cuisine I'd expect from Joe Beef. Same goes for Liverpool house, a real shame.

Thanks so much for the suggestions, I'll try some next time I'm visiting
Fun fact that you may already know, the head of vin mon lapin used to work at Joe Beef for many years since 2010 ish and so did Vanya as a sommelier if I remember correctly
Wow .....merci de nous rapporter ton expérience...toujours utile ......mais ton assiette semblait délicieuse....j'espère que tu as bien dégusté......lollll....dans quel secteur était-ce???......j'en ai un près de chez moi à 15 min. de marche....n'y suis jamais allé.
Joe Beef has some good steaks but I think the beef is better at Grinder and a little bit cheaper. Better value for your money and good steaks.
If you're looking for something more west of Montreal, I'd recommend Smoke Meat Pete's in Ile-Perrot. Great smoke meat sandwiches, and always with a live band playing there.
I love Universel on Ste-Catherine, Itali.co at Cote Vertu Mall, Petit Sao on Notre-Dame and for old time greasy food, good old Greenspot is still the best in Montreal IMHO.
Bossa on Wellington in Verdun, Best sandwiches in Montreal by far !
Elio Pizzeria is a great old school italian restaurant. Large portions great atmosphere price and they treat you like family!
