As Easter approaches, Montreal's restaurants are preparing a range of special menus that reflect the spirit of spring through local flavours and thoughtful touches. From elegant prix fixe dinners to hearty brunches and shared family-style meals, the options are as diverse as the city itself.
Some restaurants focus on traditional dishes, while others blend seasonal ingredients with modern twists across three or four well-paced courses.
Favourites like eggs Benedict, braised meats, seafood and quiche are served alongside inventive offerings rooted in local or Mediterranean traditions. On the sweeter side, maple-forward desserts, fresh fruit crêpes, chocolate mousse and house-made pastries take centre stage. A curated selection of private-import wines, mimosas and spirited coffees rounds out the meal.
Whether in the heart of the city or just beyond, these Easter menus are available during brunch, lunch or dinner service, depending on the location. While some are offered across the weekend, others are exclusive to Easter Sunday.
Each one reflects the team's dedication to quality, comfort and a desire to bring people together around a well-prepared meal. A festive opportunity to mark the season with generosity and flavour.
