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.
The food at this place was unexpectedly incredible- it just looked so low key & chill here yet it was obvious how much care was put into the food. we absolutely loved it!!
It's difficult to review a restaurant in these times. We love Aux Vivres. Food is great, service always good. But this time it just felt a bit sad. Chairs put up on tables, no terrace, the take out part almost empty. Perhaps it was just a slow night, perhaps it's so big & needs to be past this to feel like there is a buzz. I will hope for busier, buzzer times ahead.
Excellente variété de produits végétariens & en plus si on aime on va à côté ( eaux vivres pour emporter) & on peut commander ce qu'on veut. En plus les préposés au service connaissent vraiment très bien leur produits. Ils devraient en avoir beaucoup plus de ces restaurants & les prix sont très abordables & que dire de la quantité impressionnante dans nos assiettes. À découvrir.
We were visiting from Toronto & staying in Old Montreal but we knew we wanted to try Aux Vivres. Was worth the trip. Food was amazing. We actually purchased a couple of items from their store before we left. Highly recommend this place. The server was fantastic!!
