Best Restaurants, Must Try Places in Quebec

"Little brother to Lawrence restaurant and its boucherie, Larry’s may be better known for its refined fare, but its baristas pull a fine espresso too. Helmed by Myriade alum Keaton Ritchie and equipped with a La Marzocco Linea espresso machine, the coffee service at this Mile End hole-in-the-wall favors distinctive blends from the likes of Portland’s Heart Coffee Roasters. Tempt taste buds early with Larry’s elevated take on a sausage and egg breakfast sandwich, or swing by later for beef tartare and the resto’s specialty Ghost Farm IPA."

"Arthurs Nosh Bar is advertised as a “traditional Jewish deli”, but is actually neither traditional nor a deli, and while the menu contains several traditional Jewish dishes, don’t expect your bubba’s smoked meats. You will, however, find delicious organic smoked salmon and they do serve latkes, challah bread, and kosher salami, but it is more a place where you can expect quinoa and gluten-free dishes. The mix works very well and the place is beautifully decorated, bright and modern, with an herb garden, leather banquettes, and black and white photos on the wall."

"Everything on the menu at Arthur’s Nosh Bar is a little different than the deli classics you’re used to - and you’ll definitely appreciate the creativity once you see things like latke smorgasbords, a challah grilled cheese, and cottage cheese pancakes. While the brunch menu is shorter, it’s one of the best in the city (and the long weekend lines reflect that). Though once you have a stack of perfect pancakes in front of you, it’ll be worth the wait."

"Arthurs Nosh Bar has a menu that’s composed of Jewish cuisine with a twist. Consider grabbing a schnitzel sandwich or cured fish, the breakfast sandwich, or a gourmet salad. If you’re craving brunch or lunch, Arthurs is a popular choice."

"Montreal, QC Canada H2T 1R2Phone: (514) 842-3479Hours: 11am-11pm DailyWebsite: https://auxvivres.com/en. Aux Vivres is a favorite among Montreal’s Vegans and Vegetarians. It prides itself on being the city’s first vegan restaurant."

"Our vegan pancake lovers should check out Aux Vivres, which offer a slew of great options, all loaded with fruits."

"A stately establishment on the recently revamped Laurier Avenue, this technically traditional French bistro dishes the likes of homemade boudin, cabillaud and onglet steak frites while making allowances for the inclusion of a range of Quebec cheeses and creative desserts. Also of note: Leméac’s inexpensive table d'hôte menus aimed at the late-night crowd, nightly from 10pm ‘til close."

"A classic French Brasserie- Leméac has been serving delicious French classics for over 15 years. The menu was a collaborative effort between some of the city’s top chefs, and the outcome was superb. Better yet, the kitchen emphasizes organic and local ingredients, so your meals will be flavourful and top quality!"

"At this new West Island smokehouse, AAA brisket is the star, served as either the centrepiece of the barbecue feast, a sandwich filling, or atop a mac and cheese. Also available: St. Louis-style ribs, jalapeño and cheddar cornbread, chicken wings, and lots more. View this post on Instagram"

"De bons sandwichs gourmands et une buvette comme tout quartier se doit d’avoir. Ce projet est une initiative du chef et enseignant à l’École des métiers de la restauration et du tourisme de Montréal Maxime Gagné, accompagné de ses élèves. Les produits locaux règnent à travers les sandwichs et autres créations ; c’est beau à voir."

"Dumpling Hut is a very charming small family restaurant on the Plateau!. Once inside, you would not be amiss in thinking that the decor could easily be similar to what the owners may have in their own dining room!. This is food that is prepared and adjusted to the tastes of the clients, based on family classic traditions."

"Dumpling Hut is a quaint little restaurant that offers some of the best dumplings in Montreal!. Owner Haiqin is originally from China and arrived in Montreal in 2013. Since then, she has been introducing Chinese culture to Montreal in her own way, preparing tasty dumplings for her clients."

"If you’re looking for authentic, local Chinese, look no further. Hidden on a corner right off Saint-Laurent Boulevard, this cozy spot offers a variety of carefully handmade dumplings. You get sixteen dumplings in each dish, which is more than enough to satisfy your cravings."

"The rundown: Before Caroline Andrieux came along, the Darling Foundry was just another abandoned industrial building on the edge of Griffintown. Andrieux, who has a history of transforming unoccupied buildings into art spaces, is the founder and artistic director of the visual arts centre that launched here in 2002; before that, she spent the second half of the ’90s cultivating an artistic community in this neighbourhood. The Foundry has two rooms, but they aren’t always in use."

"At Fonderie Darling, be ready to find urban and industrial visual arts with eco-conscious undertones. Right now, the gallery is showing a series of colourful cartoon-like paintings by Vincent Larouche, as well as a huge exhibition in its main hall inspired by aquatic life in the St-Lawrence river. Oh, and don’t forget to stop by the EmballeToi!"

"The Darling Foundry Visual Arts Centre is a contemporary art space which seeks to promote art and artists within the city of Montreal. The centre is set in an iconic building that exudes the city’s industrial history. Conceived by the architects In Situ, Darling Foundry officially opened in 2002."

"Why: Located in Côte-des-Neiges, right atop the Mount Royal, Saint Joseph's Oratory is one of Canada's largest churches and a National Historic Site of Canada. Construction was completed in 1966 and its dome is the third-largest of its kind, only after the Basilica of Our Lady of Peace of Yamoussoukro in Côte d’Ivoire and Saint Peter’s Basilica in Rome."

"At the end of the alley you will be on St. Joseph. Continue walking two blocks east passing St. Stanislas church until you reach Avenue Laurier. This is one of the most interesting streets on the Plateau where you will find a world of style, prestige, flavours, beauty and good food. The place to see and be seen."

"Aux cinq parfums is a very good restaurant located in the north of the island. You will specially like its appetising cuisine and its copious dishes. We recommend you to share several appetizers, as they are particularly delicious.(Photo credit: Aux cinq parfums)"
