LOV receives praise for a vibrant plant-based menu with creative bowls, cauliflower dishes, dumplings, pancakes, and a memorable fish-free taco lineup, paired with an inviting cozy chic ambience and drinks. The service is frequently described as warm, knowledgeable, and attentive, with many noting great recommendations, though a number of visits mention slower or inconsistent service and occasional crowding during peak times. Several reviews highlight generous portions and strong flavors, including standout items like roasted cauliflower, mushroom risotto, carbonara, arancini, and the beet tartare, while a few diners feel certain dishes lack punch, temperature issues or are overpriced relative to portions. The vegan and vegetarian options are often described as offerings that can satisfy non-vegetarians as well, and the atmosphere is repeatedly described as romantic or date-night friendly with a modern, open space. Some critiques focus on value, with mentions of higher prices, limited vegan desserts, or a brunch menu that changed with fewer vegan options. Overall, LOV is regarded as a standout plant-based dining spot in Montreal with consistently positive impressions of food quality, drinks, and ambiance, even as a minority of experiences call for improvements in service speed, consistency, and value.View restaurant profile
