Archway earns strong praise for inventive vegan cuisine, attentive service, and a warm, bright atmosphere that invites sharing and lingering. Reviews highlight dishes that feel artistic and well balanced, with standout charms like maitake, okonomiyaki, crudo melon, and a celebrated table d'hote that many call exceptional. The menu is noted for thoughtful flavor pairings, generous portions, and robust gluten-free options, making it accessible for vegetarians, vegans, and diners with dietary needs. The service is repeatedly described as friendly, professional, and genuinely caring, with guests often mentioning the welcoming staff and smooth coordination between kitchen and dining room. Some critiques mention occasional slower pacing, especially with drinks or during busy times, and a few nights with longer than expected durations or seating issues, such as a back corner table or an outdoor terrace where a sewer odor affected the ambience. The overall sentiment positions Archway as a standout vegan dining destination in the city, delivering delicious, creative dishes and memorable experiences that invite repeat visits.
Mon amie & moi on a adoré, tout était savoureux & les cocktails sont super bons. On y est allées un lundi & il n'y avait presque personne, c'était calme & la musique n'était pas forte, j'apprécie toujours les endroits où l'on peut simplement placoter calmement, sans bruit dérangeant l'écoute. On recommande, ce n'est pas cher pour une aussi bonne expérience.
always great food & drinks here. a bit on the expensive side but worth it. the room is not the most cozy, they could improve with less intense lighting & some sound dampening ( dark curtains on the flat white walls would help with both problems) but the food is soo good & the employees are always very kind & helpful

Absolument délicieux! Le service était superbe aussi. La musique n'est pas trop forte & les lieux sont bien éclairés tout en restant dans une ambiance feutrée (ce qui est le moins qu'on puisse dire pour la plupart des restos/bars montréalais haha).
We had delivered at home the kale salad, eggplant, tofu, dumplings, arancini & coco-lime dessert. All the flavours were there. We are sure if we ate at the restaurant, we have yet to go, the experience would have been different. Unfortunately we ordered online & the food arrived all smushy (except salad). The dumplings were sticking to the package, we had to fight to get them out (obviously lost the bottom). Perhaps a piece of parchment would help in the packaging. Wasn't warm by the time it got here somehow (we live 4 min by car away). But again, all the flavours were there & place seems to have potential. The drinks B12 & Golden were good (a bit too much ice). We're glad to have a vegetarian option in the neighbourhood.
Je ne suis ni vegan, ni végétarienne, mais j'avais envie d'essayer quelque chose de nouveau & c'était délicieux. On a essayé la table d'hôte pour 55$ qui comprend 2 entrées, un repas, un trou normand & un dessert! Tout était excellent, très bon rapport qualité-prix!
First time at Archway & I will definitely come back ! Maitake Steak was divine. Shout-out to Sophie for her first shift, she provided great service & hospitality.
Nous avons contacté le restaurant par téléphone afin de procéder à une réservation, & il nous a été précisé que deux places au bar étaient disponibles. Cependant, à notre arrivée, l'hôtesse nous a informés qu'une erreur de communication s'était produite, conduisant à l'attribution de nos places à d'autres clients. Cette expérience a été décevante, surtout compte tenu de notre déplacement & des frais de stationnement engagés.

I got the chance to get a reservation for St-Valentin & I got to order their special 5 course menu. It was some of the best vegan food I've had in my life! The service was amazing & the ambiance was great 👍
Had a beautiful evening with my non- vegan family members. Everyone greatly enjoyed the food, the ambiance was spectacular & the staff was extremely kind hearted. Will definitely be returning very soon💕
Go. Just make your reservation & GO. You will not be disappointed. The drinks rival those of the best cocktail bars & the food is amazing. Incredibly flavorful. Impeccable service. Just wow.
Lovely location with great ambience. Our server was attentive but not obtrusive. & the food was so good my friend & I shared our meals. Will be back for sure.

A wonderful vegan restaurant ! Had the dinner table d'hôte( Brussel sprouts, dumplings, aubergine schnitzel & cheesecake) & every dish was delicious. I also enjoyed their cocktails. Service was great as well. Overall a fantastic place.
La nourriture était délicieuse & nous avons aimé l'endroit. Toutefois, on nous a rappelé plusieurs fois qu'on devait quitter d'ici deux heures, ce qui a définitivement réduit notre appréciation & créé un stress inutile.
Notre brunch était délicieux!
J'ai commandée les Baklava Pancakes pour la 4ième fois, & malheureusement je trouve qu'ils ont changé depuis la première fois. Les crêpes sont un peu trop épaisses & lourdes... si la recette pourrait retourner à l'originale ça serait plus que presque parfait 🤤🩷💛
