WELCOME TO AUX VIVRES, MONTREAL'S FIRST VEGAN RESTAURANT.
At Aux Vivres, we serve fresh, innovative and delicious vegan food using nothing but the highest quality ingredients. We have made it our mission to debunk any myths people may hold about vegan food by preparing meals that are flavourful and inspired, all the while being healthy and satisfying.
Aux Vivres receives wide praise for flavorful, fresh vegan dishes, generous portions and a warm, cozy atmosphere. Dishes like the Mumbai bowl, Thai bowl, Dragon bowl, BLT and dahl soup are repeatedly cited as satisfying, with thoughtful ingredient combinations and plenty of vegetables. The menu is described as healthy and comforting, with many reviewers noting gluten free options and allergy awareness. The staff is often described as friendly and attentive, with praise for service and ambiance, though a few comments point to slower service during busy periods. Occasionally criticisms appear about price value, portions that feel very large for some, changes to the menu removing favorites like Tom Yum soup and Malai Kofta, and in one case a report of food poisoning after the Dragon bowl. The venue is described as a Montreal institution and a go to for both vegans and non vegans, with brunch, smoothies and a shop for take away. Overall, the reviews suggest Aux Vivres is a cornerstone of vegan dining in Montreal, with frequent recommendations to try the BLT and the variety of bowls, and a note to plan for potential crowds.
J'ai passé 10 jours à Montréal & dans la province du Québec & c'est le meilleur repas que j'ai pu déguster au long de mon séjour ( ça change des burgers, bagels & autres poulets frit ).

Ça fait plusieurs fois que j'y vais & je ne suis jamais déçue. Le personnel est sympathique & efficace, le service est rapide & courtois. La nourriture est vraiment délicieuse, beaucoup de saveurs & d'épices. Certaines portions sont immenses (je pense notamment aux bols).
J'y étais vendredi soir, plein, & tout était tout de même rapid & délicieux.
They charge 3.50$ for extra guacamole. Both the containers of guacamole were brown & tasted awful. It was absolutely disgusting & ruined the meal. Doesn’t your staff realize that once it’s gone black like that it starts tasting off? How can you send that out to a customer. Thanks for the terrible 35$ meal.
Visited recently for dinner. Great vegan options! We had the Dragon bowl with tofu & another with a cauliflower patty & both were super yummy & filling. The potato wedges are awesome. Quick service, great vibe & good food.
Great fresh salad food service
Ambiance a bit ‘spare' esp in the afternoon
Tea bag had been too long in the drawer
But really nice service & terrific salad
The bowl portions were so big I really couldn't get to the rice underneath & there was no room in the bowl to mix it all up. I would rather have less food, less lettuce & more room to mix in the sauce. It was disappointing.
All of the food was absolutely incredible & we had such a wonderful experience. The chefs clearly know what they're doing & the service was so incredibly warm. It's a little gem of a place that's a must-go, especially if you're craving authentic indian cozy food among other things! Thank you again! P.S.: We had the malai kofta thali, which hit home; the mango lassi was perfect, the chilli had elements of the chaat yogurt you put in chaat papdi. Everything was super fresh & the brownie was so soft & delicious.
Great vegan brunch! We had the wrap, the full breakfast & pancakes. All well done, pancakes were very well done. So happy to have these options in Montreal!
AUX VIVRES always serve great vegan confort food. Unfortunately, the live music show in this new smaller restaurant is much too loud. It is difficult to have a conversation. We ate & left in a hurry. Too bad, cause it really takes away from the Aux Vivres experience.
