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.
Très belle place, belle ambiance chill & classe, un service professionnel & agréable. Les plats sont avec des saveurs recherchées & travaillés visuellement. Mention spéciale pour l'entrée aux artichauts !
Je suis un habitué du restaurant & cela vaut franchement le détour ! Les plats sont originaux & délicieux, le service est 5 étoiles & l'ambiance cosy & sympathique ! Un incontournable de Verdun pour un repas atypique & délicieux ... mais surtout étonnamment vegan !
Incredibly delicious food! It cannot be understated how amazing the food was. But I could have gone without the waitress's condescending & moralizing comments about how sugar is "bad" & "maple syrup is a healthier option" when I asked for some sugar for my coffee. Customer service could certainly be improved.
One of (if not my top) favorite restaurants to go to! The menu changes are always delicious, the staff is always warm, welcoming & very friendly! The atmosphere is warm, cozy & inviting + the food presentation is just incredible! I love coming here for dinner, but I LOVE brunch! I always recommend people to come here! Always LOVE the selection of mocktails + cocktails!
Ambiance réconfortante & sympathique, au meme titre que le personnel & le service. Les plats sont excellents & faits avec simplicité, tout en ayant leur unicité & leur facon originale de surprendre. Aucunement besoin d'etre « végé » pour apprécier! Superbe soirée, & on est sorties bien remplies!

Nous avons eu un excellent service, nous n'avons manqué de rien & notre serveuse s'est assurée que nous puissions profiter de tous les services de la table d'hôte malgré que nous étions pressées pour un spectacle. La nourriture est excellente! Nous étions 3 donc nous avons décidé de goûter à tous les plats de la table d'hôte & nous avons tout aimé.
This was such a picturesque location. We were seated right by the window & the lofi playing on the speakers was perfectly calming & chill. The plants set up around made it even more welcoming. Our server was super welcoming & friendly & equipped with our recommendations we were able to order some of the most delicious dishes I've ever had. Everything was very flavorful & had the most intriguing & tasty combinations. Thoroughly enjoyed my time here. I recommend trying their specialty hot drinks.
Mon restaurant vegan préféré! Tout est tellement délicieux a chaque fois, les recettes sont aussi audacieuses, on est vraiment ailleurs. Allez l'essayer!

Une très belle découverte, dans ambiance épurée & agréable. La cuisine est vraiment très bonne & parfaitement maîtrisée dans ses assaisonnements. Coup de coeur pour l'artichaut.
Visiting The Archway was a very fun & delicious experience... I would even say unique! Beautiful decor, very friendly & polite service, great creative menu. The chicken & waffles was fantastic, I highly recommend it! The eggs Benedict was good as well, however it did not remind me of eggs Benedict. It did have a vegan egg & it was very interesting to pop the yolk & taste it (I didn't really care for the taste but it was an amazing imitation). The soup of the day which was Tom yum & dumplings was delicious. We also tried two adaptogen beverages (according to google, "an adaptogen is a non-toxic plant or mushroom substance that can help the body manage stress, anxiety, & fatigue"). We tried the two first ones on the menu, I believe golden latte & the mushroom hot chocolate. They were very comforting & tasty & definitely interesting to try!! I also tried a ginger & lemon cookie which was good but slightly dry & a blueberry muffin which also was quite dry but good, & in all fairness they were the two last pastries left so that might explain why they got dry. All in all, I definitely recommend trying The Archway!
