I'm hesitant to give my 2 cents about food again :smile:
But Cafe Epocca on Boul. St-Laurent makes a really great pizza among other things.

Place funky
J'adore Orange Rouge près du palais des congrès.
Il faut réserver par contre, même pour le dinner, c'est petit et très populaire.

Best burgers in MTL are at Mr. Steer on St-Cath, between Drummond and Stanley... The place looks like an old diner. But it's worth every dollar spent there. Also try their fries and franks...

Last week when I was in Montreal......

First time I ever tried Vegan and it was delicious! Not surprised that I would go Vegan for about an hour or two in Montreal. Other than hobbying I also attended a few HIIT classes with Report Fitness in Sherbrooke. So I was famished afterwards. After showering and cleaned up I went and tried out Crudessence. Their kale chips and Om burger are to die for!

First time I don't feel guilty eating a burger.

Next time I am back will definitely visit again and try out other things on their menu.

There is one in Chinatown. Don't know the name but they have seats outside and there is a buffet sign from what I remember. Speaking of Chinatown a few of my favorite eateries there disappeared. Now one of them became a bakery which is pretty cool on its own but I do miss that restaurant when it was there. I have not been back to Montreal for a few years so many of the restaurants I liked are gone which is not surprising.

Downtown, there is one on Stanley next to Chez Parée, and there was one on St-Antoine behind 1000 De la Gauchetière, it was in a basement... don't know, if it still there...

Are you referring to the Vietnamese restaurant next to CP? I believe it's called Chez Lien. I went by that place throughout the summer whenever imstayed at the Sheraton. From all appearances, it looks like a nice restaurant.

It seems that this thread has been moving along very slowly since my friend Eagerbeaver left the board. He was very active in this thread and posted valuable info. I'll be the first to admit that i rarely checked this thread out since i'm a person of habit. When i find a place i like to eat or go for drinks at, i usually stick with it. Same thing with an sp i may click big time with. I don't repeat often, but when i meet someone i enjoy being it, i'll try to see her again and again whenever i happen to be in the city. Same thing with restaurants.

Recently, an sp i saw asked me out to dinner once her shift would be over. I didn't have any plans and figured i'd be hungry by then, so i accepted her invitation. She told me to chose the restaurant. So guess what, i logged onto this site and consulted this thread. I found some valuable info. I realized then how valuable this thread could be at times. So bravo to the ones who've kept it alive. :thumb:

Habs Nation!
I didn't talk but i concur with aspen ... Im far from being a conaisseur in asian food but i feel Chez lien is quite comercial and for an out towner there is far better place ...

In that field me i like Sesame there one on the place des spectacle maybe a bit commercial too but i feel the package is way more professional

Maybe Aspen can tell us if food it is really good? She seem to know what she's talking about

Montreal does not have good Asian food. A few good Japanese spots, but nothing for Chinese, Vietnamese, or Korean. Toronto and Vancouver are much better. And for Americans, Boston and New York are much better. And Philly good for pho.

If you want a quick, cheap meal - sure, it works. But low-quality cooking skills here, for Asian. Can't win 'me all.

(Ironic as I'm closing out dinner at Imadake... Competent / ok Japanese izakaya, but nothing exceptional. More a good location and fun for groups. Montreal is too far from fresh sources of seafood to really be a top-grade destination for sushi. Same reason Philly sucks for sushi. And there isn't sufficient demand to really raise the quality of the sashimi to NY or LA level. Sushi sophistication is still relatively nascent. Park is good, but would be middling in NY. Heck, it's a Korean-Japanese restaurant :lol:... Not even pure Japanese!)

Overrated places.

Romados. Chicken is tender and juicy. I find the salad that comes with the meal to be better than the soggy fries. The Pastel de Nata is good but on the heavy side. I prefer the less sweet more flaky versions in Chinatown. Good eatery but I would not go out of the way to come here.

Aux Vivres. WTF. Very good portions but really lack flavor. If it wasn't for the sauce the food would be tasteless. Very friendly staff though. First time I tried Vegan. And in Montreal not surprising. I like Crudessence much better.

Toque. Too snobby. Reminds me of NYC. Also too many fancy unnecessary moves.

I will politely have to disagree on these two.

Romados is still the best Portuguese chicken in town. Over-priced? Yes, a little. But they really get the flavor in there. I've tried all the other places, and the "aggressiveness" :lol: with which Romados flavors their chicken / marinade is still my favorite, for my palate. Ma Poule Mouillée does a fantastic poutine rendition with the chicken, but the classic chicken-fries-salad combo is just not as flavorful as Romados'. I concede Romados' fries aren't the best. But they're not soggy. And they too are flavorful, especially after you re-heat them the next day (I can't finish the whole thing in one sitting anymore).

Toqué is a Montreal fine dining institution. The don. The fine dining equivalent to a Queue de Cheval or Moishes for steak in this city. The predecessor to Pied du Cochon, Joe Beef's and all these other cooler hipster spots that has cheapened the special-occasion feel of white-glove fine-dining service. (That said, Toqué has also surrendered to the casual trend a little, with their waiters annoyingly walking around with sloppy loosened ties. If you're wearing a tie at work, fucking tighten it up, slacker!! :nono:) Do you eat at Toqué every week? No. But I take a degustation spin there at least once every year. Just took my friends there on the last trip. For the amount of food you get, it's not a bad deal. 4 grown men, albeit middle-aged office dilettantes, were sufficiently filled. And yes, there are some over-the-top flourishes, but even the way-way-out-of-style foam was used to delicious effect. The signature princess scallop dish is still to die for - perfection in a slurp - a true signature dish. And to foodie friends, who are looking for a Perse, Bouley, Le Bernardin "NYC" type experience in Montreal, I comfortably recommend Toqué.

A really great restaurant city, which Montreal is (almost), has great vertical depth - from the really high-end white-glove fine dining restaurants to casual neighborhood eateries, all the way down to cheap grub (poutine, gyros, etc.); AND horizontal breadth (lots of ethnic options - French, Italian, Spanish, seafood, steaks, Chinese, Japanese, etc.). Montreal is not so strong in horizontal breadth, but fantastic when it comes to vertical depth. Toqué and Romados fill out this spectrum nicely.

Porto Mar - solid Portuguese option in Vieux Port

Had a free day Thursday and wandered around Old Port in the morning. Found this Portuguese spot in a relatively quiet and secluded section on Place d'Youville. Restaurant was empty, but the menu intrigued, and decent deals on their table d'hote's. A pleasant discovery. And IMO, a better alternative to Helena, the other Portuguese restaurant in Old Port, which is just over-priced. Really nice interior with exposed brick walls, in a historic building. Love these kinds of places in Montreal. Always makes me think of the Robert de Niro movie 'The Score' which was shot in Montreal, I think...

Gazpacho, classic Spanish/Portuguese-style sauteed monkfish in a tomatoes, garlic, parsley and chicken stock reduction, rice pudding and coffee. Monkfish was perfectly cooked. Then again, monkfish is not that hard to cook... Still, good value, very good taste, fantastic location and ambiance (perfect for sneaking in a few chapters of whimsy reading), and a friendly professional staff. Perfect for a calm and peaceful weekday lunch in Old Port on a crisp sunny day. I'll be back.

actually, its the opposite. there's better chinese and vietnamese food than japanese food in montreal. you just need to know where to go since there's so much crap out there. when you look at it, most japanese restaurants are chinese or vietnamese owned. its the same with korean.

:lol: That was my point about Park... A Japanese sushi restaurant should be run by Japanese... So I'm probably biased because I actually do go to Japanese restaurants here, whereas I skip on the others. Boston, LA, NY, Vancouver, and yes I guess Toronto would be in that group, too, are orders of magnitude better than the Americanized / Westernized slop served in Montreal's Chinatown.

To your point, I remember an article a few years back pointing out that a large preponderance of Montreal sushi restaurants often falsely advertised on the menu the fish used, secretly using cheaper species, and the local clientele not knowing any better. :nono: Has always colored my view of Montreal sushi...

Nope, I'll stick with duck, foie, and fresh berries.
