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.
Les plats étaient savoureux avec une superbe présentation, autant l'entrée du jour que le reste de la table d'hôte que nous avons prise. Ambiance agréable avec décoration simple & cozy, serveur très agréable & attentif, je recommande chaudement! Ma famille d'omnivores ont toustes adoré!
J'adore le Archway. Les propriétaires sont toutes charmantes & attentionnées. & que dire du raffinement de leur bouffe végane. Faut prendre les dumplings. Peux pas m'en passer ! 5 étoiles
La musique était vraiment forte, pour un samedi midi c'était un peu désagréable. Le choix de boissons chaudes était très classique, ça aurait été chouette d'avoir du matcha ou des latte aromatisés.
Mais c'était une belle expérience, je reviendrais :)
I just HAD to try the baklava pancakes - which did not disappoint!! But I have to say, I enjoyed the waffles even more! Still thinking about it weeks later 🤤
It was a wonderful dining experience. All the dishes we had were all equally delicious & the service was amazing. We were all very comfortable & had an enjoyable time. Kudos! I've recommended Archway to friends & family. Thank you!
The prices are steep for what you get, but delicious & filling. I think it would be nice to place a heavy curtain (halfway across would be enough) to separate the bathrooms from the table. There were so many people going in & out of the bathrooms, leaving the doors ajar, while we sat there having to deal with the odours, people walking by our table & food, & this was quite atrocious. I think a curtain or similar would fix this.

Délicieux repas. Gastronomie végétalienne de haute voltige! Service attentionné, efficace & discret. Décor minimaliste (sauf pour les fleurs séchées derrière les banquettes qui nuisent à l'élégance globale. Seuls bémols: le confort des chaises & les décibels. Il faudrait vraiment trouver des moyens d'atténuer le bruit des convives dans ce grand local écho. Je n'ai aucune idée de votre choix de musique & l'ambiance cosy que méritent la qualité de la cuisine & le service est raté. Je suis sorti avec les oreilles qui bourdonnent & l'impression d'avoir mangé un grand repas dans une cafétéria.
Un délice à chaque commande, à chaque visite. Un lieu où j'aime venir, revenir & faire découvrir à mon entourage. Une cuisine végé pas grasse, subtile, aux saveurs wow!
Cortado was excellent. Baklava pancakes were a bit dense. The pistachios & cream on top were a nice complement, & not very sweet. This dish doesn't really make me think of baklava though. Ceviche was tasty, more on the sour tangy side. Would have been nice to have seen a bit more contrast in colours of the ingredients & maybe some herbs. A carb or some sort of chip or cracker or side would have helped. Maitake dish continues to be a miss. Just too unbalanced. The chili maple syrup sauce is too sweet, paired with coconut cream rice that is also sweet... I would maybe come back here for the coffee & drinks. Service was courteous & considerate & the kitchen was very accommodating. Everything was served very hot & was appetizing but I think some of the dishes can be reworked.
Beau restaurant au coeur de verdun - Les plats sont beaux & + poussé au niveau de la presentation que la plupart des restaurants - La nourriture etait OK, rien d'exceptionnel en soit - Le cocktail etait très bon - Les prix sont élevés (tu paie pour le décor, la présentation des plats) - La qualité des ingredients est bonne mais quand meme trop cher - Le service etait ok, rien de special
