Dear Archway Team,
Thank you for giving me the opportunity to share my thoughts after our visit-& above all, thank you for the culinary experience that left us absolutely breathless. You've achieved something extraordinary: transforming plant-based cuisine into a symphony of flavours, a pure & captivating indulgence. It's a performance that deserves the highest praise.
The dishes? A flawless composition, without a single misstep. The table d'hôte menu won us over with every bite: dumplings so tender they felt almost sinful, gnocchi so velvety they'd make anyone envious, & that tempura artichoke-simply sublime. Here, there's no talk of deprivation; instead, we savoured, marveled, & craved more. & let's not forget the grand desserts, each one stunning. Every plate is a work of art, an invitation to reimagine what plant-based cuisine can be: generous, inventive, & unapologetically gourmet.
The setting? A perfect blend of trendy bistro & elegant canteen, where light wood & natural light showcase a cuisine that is both proud & bold.
The service? A perfect balance of enthusiasm & professionalism. Your team embodies the spirit of Archway beautifully: attentive, discreet, & so warmly welcoming that we felt at ease from the moment we walked in.
So yes, I'm taking these few moments to tell you: you've succeeded where so many others fall short. Archway isn't just a restaurant; it's an ode to cooking, a dazzling proof that plant-based can mean luxury, audacity, & sheer gourmet delight. & that, my friends, is rare enough to celebrate-& to make us eager to return without hesitation.
See you soon for more delicious discoveries. & please, don't change a thing… or if you must, only just a little.
Warm regards,
Marcia & Vincent
Some dishes are excellent while others are very boring. Hit or miss. Service can be unpredictable but overall not bad. Just like the food - extremely good or sometimes not upto the mark - 100%
Don't like the new menu. All fancy presentation & no taste.

Archway is a fantastic restaurant with excellent food & service. Dishes were outstanding, we especially enjoyed the tempeh & aubergine with babousa for dessert! The staff here are incredibly helpful with recommendations & so kind!
I was very pleasantly surprised how good this restaurant is & how delicious their vegan dishes are! We had their table d'hôte menu & it was great. Everything about the food was amazing. There was so much taste & the portions were simply perfect. We also really enjoyed the atmosphere which, in the evening, was really nice, especially with the window table.
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.
I love this place. I think I am singlehandedly keeping their green goddess salad on the menu. If you wish healthy food was « tastier » this is the place. They can make any vegetable taste delicious. If this place closes down my body will die from deficiencies I am sure. Don't like veggies that much? No problem. Their gnocchi & pasta dishes are to die for. Their sauces are so rich & creamy & flavourful, I honestly can't believe it. Thank you so much archway for existing. Please never close down or go out of business. You're everything I ever wanted in a restaurant.

Archway is a mid-tier vegan restaurant serving up classic western dishes that are fully plant-based & delicious. The restaurant is cozy, adorned with house plants that really bring out a sense of calmness while dining. My friend decided to split their Lion's Mane Mushroom Kaarage ($19) along with their Truffle Fettuccini ($29) & the Maitake Steak ($28). We absolutely loved the mushrooms as they were perfectly battered & fried, & you don't often find lion's mane mushrooms in restaurants. For the mains, the fettuccini was the standout with the slight hint of truffles being used to elevate the flavor. Our Maitake mushroom steak was okay as well. I felt it lacked some depth in flavor & relied heavily on the sauce laid underneath, which was still delicious. The polenta sticks accompanying the mushrooms were food too. I would stick with the kaarage & noodles for this one. We also ended the meal with their Baklava Pear ($14) which was aromatic, sweet, & a great way to end the meal. Prices are a bit steeper than I like but it was still great to experience one of the best vegan restaurants in town. Reservations are a must.
Absolutely delishious food. Highly recommend. Great service. Although, a little bit of constructive criticism...the strawberry smoothie my mom had needed more fruit & a little less what I think was pea protein based milk; the mimosas where very tasty but too sweet. Needed more orange juice & less syrup. Everyone else really loved their dishes. We were 11 people total. The pancakes ended up being too sweet in the end. My sister was only able to eat half of her plate. I had the Chicken Waffle, which was OUT OF THIS WORLD DELICIOUS !!!! The flavor combinations where right on point. Will be visiting again!
Can't say enough good things about this spot; food is delicious,creative & exciting. Staff is friendly & take the time to explain the dishes & anything else on the menu. Despite not being vegan myself, I love the concept & admire how well thought of & flavourful the dishes are. Ordered the Bao plate recently which was so tasty! Really love their smoothies as well, price point is on the higher side but worth the treat.
I expected a lot from this place. We ordered the tasting menu, an appetizer, & a main. First thing I noticed was that the service was pretty slow. Our dishes came slowly & we were in the restaurant for a total of 2.5 hours. Second, when the food came, we were very excited because it looked really pretty. But when we tasted it... It was just so bland. Like they didn't use any spices. Every dish was extremely one-note. For example the "shawarma" which we were excited for. Was just seared cauliflowers with a vegetal sauce. But it didn't taste interesting or complex at all. Overall, the food was just... Boring. & expensive. So I don't really recommend it.

We came here for our anniversary dinner & both got the Table D'hôte. The portions in general were very good for the price & we walked out of there extremely satisfied. The dishes in general were good but some of them lacked flavour. the gnocchi were really chewy & overcooked & the sauce was flavourless. It mostly tastes like mayo.... This was the same for the white drizzle of sauce around the cauliflower. Everything else was good. The brownie at the end was lacklustre & if I came again I would go for the cheese cake 🍰 which was delicious. The drinks 🍹 were also DELICIOUS & would highly recommend going for those!! I would suggest that the restaurant refines their gnocchi dish a bit.
Best vegan restaurant in Montreal! We chose the « table d'hôte » & got to try a bunch of different dishes, each of them were delicious. My partner is not vegan & LOVED the food! It also very nice that they have a selection of mocktails. I will absolutely come back & try the rest of the menu !

Archway is a Verdun gem for anyone looking for an upscale take on vegan food in a comfortable setting. Every time I come here, the service is great, the atmosphere is nice & the food is so tasty. While it's so much fun to come here & get my fill of vegetables, it's hard to justify the price of the dishes considering they are vegan. Everything is delicious, but the prices are high & the portions are relatively small. I have tried every dish here, & the best one by far is the maitake steak. This dish is so filling & innovative combining different flavours & textures. I also highly recommend the drinks here. Alcoholic or not, Archway's drink menu is filled with phenomenal sips.
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!
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.
archway is truly an outstanding restaurant. i have been vegan for 10 years & this is without a doubt my preferred restaurant in the city; dishes are savoury & inventive, staff is pleasant & the atmosphere is refined yet relaxed. archway is always a great option, whether to dine solo, grab a coffee with a friend or share a nice meal with a larger group. i especially enjoy their seasonal menu changes, making for tasty new discoveries. i have brought many non-vegan friends here, who all seemed to enjoy their food just as much, if not more than me 🌱 10/10, would recommend to anyone looking for delicious food in montreal ✨
My wife & I went to get brunch, we were impressed with the quality of our dishes. We had chicken waffles, it was a perfect balance of sweet & savory. We would definitely recommend this place, if you are vegan or not vegan!
