Spirulina earns wide praise for its vibes and healthy food, with super fresh ingredients and a menu that covers nourishing bowls, toasts, soups, and standout smoothies. The Caesar salad is repeatedly called top notch, and the strawberry glaze smoothie often tops recommendations along with avocado toast and other fresh options. Staff and ambiance are commonly described as friendly and welcoming, making it a good spot for work by the window or a casual meal. Many reviewers note the cafe avoids seed oils and prioritizes health in every dish, with the overall menu described as tasty and reliable. A few concerns appear about price and portions, including comments that some toasts have shrunk since popularity, a high price to size ratio, and salmon toast arriving with a smaller portion. Consistency is mentioned as mixed, with a second order tasting different due to the date cream in the matcha date cream while many smoothies arrive creamy and delicious. A loud fridge and occasional strong onion are noted as minor annoyances, and a few orders require customization for dietary restrictions. Overall Spirulina is seen as a go-to healthy cafe in Montreal with a wide menu, friendly service, giftable products, and reliable options for post-workout meals or studying.View restaurant profile
