The couscous and tagines, especially the lamb shank and the couscous royal, are repeatedly noted for tenderness, bold seasonings, and beautiful presentation, often accompanied by vegetables that balance the dishes perfectly. The setting is cozy and intimate, enhanced by soft lighting, inviting decor, and occasional belly dancing that adds a festive touch.

Service is consistently friendly and attentive, with staff that explain the menu clearly and accommodate dietary needs, and the bring-your-own-wine option adding great value.

In short, Menthe et Couscous delivers authentic flavors, a warm ambience, and dependable quality that makes it a standout in Montreal.View restaurant profile
