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.
2025: very well presented as always. excellent service from our server. Super accommodating & attentive, & great wine pairing suggestion (Abracadabrin). The maitake was still good according to my friend. My gnocchi was a little on the sour side but not bad. My other friend enjoyed her bao buns. I enjoyed my Royale cocktail, which balanced out the anise with sweetness nicely, would definitely do a 5 à 7 here with that deal. The sesame mousse was rich. My friend enjoyed her banana foster, she just found the base difficult to break & eat.
2023: Great presentation. Friendly & efficient service. Pretty decor. The artichoke appetizer & mushroom steak were delicious. Baklava martini didn't really remind me of baklava but it was still amazing. The Mochi cocktail was good, kind of a Soho & amaretto flavour. The financier was a little bready for my taste but I did find that the toppings really helped. Good portions, pretty filling.

Les gauffres étaient vraiment très raides, même avec un couteau elles étaient difficiles à couper & les pommes de terre étaient froides, même pas tièdes vraiment froides, je crois que nos assiettes sont demeurées longtemps sur le comptoir avant le service, ce fut très long & la serveuse semblait débordée, elle était très gentille cependant, le service était parfait mais le repas vraiment décevant
J'adore ce petit resto de quartier. Pas besoin d'être végan pour apprécier, c'est toujours délicieux & original.
Autant les déjeuners, le café, le vin, les cocktails, que les plats du soirs. Le menu change souvent, avec des options sans gluten (pour les amis celiac).
I discovered this place while searching kn Google for nice places in Verdun, frankly I was extremely pleased & had a great dinner. The food is delicious & the service was 5 stars. Emma our waitress was so professional & yet very friendly & authentic. I highly recommand the place
Très belle découverte hier soir. Nous nous sommes régalées, les plats étaient généreux avec beaucoup de saveurs. On recommande vivement, sans compter sur le service très professionnel, attentionné & bienveillant d'Emma! Merci à vous tous vous avez fait d'une belle soirée une soirée mémorable.

We visited from out of town & tried both the brunch & the experience menu. The food was delicious for brunch, however the server brought us the wrong dish. We figured maybe we weren't super clear with our English when we ordered & were still happy with the dish she brought. The discovery menu was a great experience. We paired it with wine & were quite happy with the entire meal. The only misstep was the lack of acknowledgment that we were celebrating a birthday, which was noted on the reservation. We would definitely still recommend this restaurant & try it again if we visit Montreal, but the details matter.
Nous y sommes allés plusieurs fois. Mais lors de notre dernière visite c'était bon mais pas autant que les fois précédentes. Les plats étaient un peu fades.. Service personnalisé & chaleureux.

Delicious & inspiring menu. Amazing cocktails. Perfect service. Reasonable prices. Emma, our waitress, was attentive, knowledgeable, & helpful. Just a wonderful experience as we dined outside on the terrace.
