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.
Food was fresh & tasty. Staff was attentive & pleasant. Enjoyed the atmosphere & overall experience. The meal was delicious & satisfying. I always have a good experience here. Will come back definitely ❤️
The food was fabulous. In fact, we went back for a 2nd dinner during our stay in Montreal. If we lived in the City, I suspect this would be one of our favourites!
Excellent service, au dessus de mes attentes! Nourriture excellente! Repas copieux! Seul bémol, pour les enfants, les patates grillées sont trop épicées pour leur goût!
Excellent comfort food. I had the delicious corn bread with small soup & a salad. This light but filling fare left room for dessert - a good-size slab of carrot cake.
