Thanks man, I gotta check this place out.
But have anything for a "safe" cuisine pick like Italian or French or a steakhouse
Are you asking me to write another review? Off the top of my head, when it comes to French cuisine, I would highly recommend Duc de Lorraine. Please don't confuse it with a coffee place and croissant. Same restaurant but their cuisine is truly exceptional and takes French gastronomy to another level. I would highly recommend it for a peaceful meal where you can enjoy some traditional French dishes.

As for Italian cuisine, I would suggest trying Da Emma for an authentic, old-fashioned Italian dining experience.

And when it comes to steak, popular choices would be Gibbies or Kegs.

India Rosa
1050 Wellington St,
Montreal, Quebec
H3C 0M1

I recently had the opportunity to dine at India Rosa in Griffintown , and let me tell you, it certainly lived up to the hype. Prior to my visit, I had heard nothing but positive reviews about this place, so naturally, my expectations were set quite high. Well, I can confidently say that I was not disappointed. From the moment I stepped foot inside, I was greeted by a decor that can only be described as a work of art. The ambiance was simply enchanting, with the aroma of authentic, mouthwatering Indian cuisine wafting through the air. This was no ordinary Indian restaurant; it had a unique American twist that added a delightful touch to the overall experience.

Let's start with the cocktails, shall we? It's not often you come across an Indian restaurant that serves alcohol, but this unexpected addition only added to the charm and created a distinct atmosphere. The cocktail selection was truly one-of-a-kind, featuring exotic drinks with a touch of sophistication. Each sip was a journey in itself, a testament to the attention to detail and high-quality ingredients used.

Now, onto the food. As I mentioned earlier, the cuisine here is an Americanized version of traditional Indian dishes. But let me assure you, every bite was nothing short of delectable. I opted for a variety of traditional Indian tapas, and each plate left me licking my fingers in satisfaction. However, the star of the show was undoubtedly the grilled lamb chops. The combination of tender meat and the perfect blend of Indian spices created a flavor explosion that left me craving more.

Now, I will say that the prices were a tad on the higher side. But let's be honest, if you want to enjoy authentic Indian cuisine without any unfortunate trips to the bathroom, you have to expect a higher price point. And in this case, it was worth every penny. The whole experience, from the incredible food to the stunning decor, was a true testament to their commitment to providing a memorable dining experience.

In conclusion, I absolutely loved everything about this restaurant. The concept of offering exceptional food, a captivating decor, and excellent service truly won me over. I wholeheartedly give it two thumbs up and would highly recommend it to anyone in search of an unforgettable dining experience.

Je ne suis jamais allé au India Rosa sur Wellington mais je connais celui sur Mont-Royal depuis plusieurs années déjà et je peux attester que c’est une excellente cuisine. Mon seul point négatif est que je trouve les portions un peu minimales.

I find the one on Mont Royal better actually, both the food and ambiance.

If you want french brasserie food, was here recently : https://www.instagram.com/casavantmontreal/

Amazing food to my taste. Fantastic cocktails, but only down side is they only have bio wine, which I really don't like. Perhaps I just haven't yet found one I could enjoy.

I'm really enjoying what these young chefs are putting out (Plaza Montreal, bar St-Denis, Salle climatisé, vin mon lapin, etc...)

After a long 4h drive, I arrived into town at around 10:30-11, craving some good greasy food. Schwartz, Green Spot, New Systeme, Chalet BBQ all close early.
Montreal is starting to feel like a village with these early schedules :(

Where do you guys go when its late and you just want a quick bite without going to an A&W or McD ?

Discovered Shawarmaz on a recent trip, and it has been a go to quickie for me ever since. They are open till late, and can get randomly busy at all hours of the day, but lines move quickly.

I get the wrap, and the way they grill it to provide a crispy crunch, it really hits the spot. Wish I could get one right now.

A bit random but my favorite since I was a kid is Daou. Lebanese. There are 2 of them. The best one is the original one Faillon/Lajeunesse and the other one is in VSL on Marcel Laurin.

Every single birthday I ask to go there (Going this weekend, my birthday is on Tuesday haha) It's not a fancy place but it's sooo good. There are pictures of Celine Dion & René Angelil everywhere. I guess they were patrons a loong time ago. LOL

Anyway, it's delish. Vegetarian options.


Also Chu Chai on Saint Denis used to be really good. But I haven't been in a long time.
