Casa Galicia has been a staple of Spanish cuisine in Montreal since 1977. Founded by Laurentino Oliveira and still proudly family-run, the tradition continues today with Jorge Oliveira and David Oliveira at the helm.
Recognized as one of the best Spanish restaurants in North America, Casa Galicia specializes in authentic Galician cuisine, offering classic dishes like paella, zarzuela, and a variety of regional specialties. Guests can pair their meals with a refreshing pitcher of sangria considered among the best in Montreal, or explore the restaurant’s unique wine cellar, featuring reserve wines from Spain’s most prestigious winemaking regions.
The warm and welcoming atmosphere, friendly service, and distinctive décor make every visit memorable. On weekends, the experience is elevated with live flamenco performances, including a professional Spanish guitarist, bringing a touch of Spain’s vibrant culture to the heart of the city.

Issue was with the paella which is supposed to be flavorful & have a delicious socarrat, the crunchy layer of rice at the bottom. This was more of just a rice dish with seafood in it than a true paella.View more
Endroit exceptionnel très bon service & nourriture du pays je vais y retourneView more
I've been multiple times either as a couple, group of friends or with kids. Every time its been exceptional. The fried calamari is the best in the city. My husband swears by the lobster bisque! Some standout main dishes: paella for sure & the filet mignon is #chefskiss (still dreaming about this!). The kids love the garlic chicken. They have a vegan menu (which we didn't sample but love that they have that option) & catered to our gluten intolerant friend. Prices are very reasonable for the quality. Thank you David for the great service!!View more
Ce restaurant est un perle rare au Canada de la cuisine espagnole & une ou deux spécialités portugaises.
C'était tellement bon qu'on se croyait à Valence ou à Faro.

Pour une journée bien ensoleillée, mon chéri a décidé qu'on allait déguster une bonne paella & quelle excellente idée ! ☀? Le plat était savoureux, bien garni & parfaitement assaisonné. Le service était chaleureux & attentionné, & la terrasse vraiment agréable pour profiter du beau temps.

We were celebrating a significant birthday for our son on the day of St. Fermin - That's the day the running of the bulls start in Pamplona, Spain. Walking into Casa Galicia felt like walking into a classic restaurant in Spain, except the service was a lot faster ;-)
Sadly, we didn't ask his name, but the server was a wonderful man. He spoke French, Spanish English, & likely another language or two & flowed between them as necessary. He made us laugh & didn't miss a detail. It seemed like he was born to care for clients.
We enjoyed every bite of food & a fantastic sangria.
It was a special trip to Spain, right in heart of Montreal! Thank you!!!View more
This was an amazing place. The waiter was very cordial & served the food always with a nice comment & jokes. He made sure the ladies felt well attended & gave us a small'gift from his place of origin'. When we heard we were celebrating my son's b-day he came out with a piece of cake & spoons for everyone. Very attentive service, amazing food & very original Spanish atmosphere. Love the place & we will go back when go are in Montreal again!!!View more
A beautiful vegan paella & a wonderfully sweet staff.View more
If you're in Montreal, do yourself a favor & head straight to Casa Galicia. Without a doubt, it was the highlight of my trip. From the out-of-this-world mussels to the lobster & seafood paella, & the 10/10 tableside espresso martini hand-shaken by the incredible owner, David-everything was top-notch! When we couldn't decide on dessert, David took it a step further & created a dessert tasting board so we wouldn't miss a thing.
David & Fiero went above & beyond to make us feel like part of their family. The service was truly one of the best I've ever experienced! The flamenco performance added the perfect touch to the lively, fun atmosphere, making for an unforgettable evening. The cozy, welcoming vibe, delicious food, & amazing drinks are something you absolutely have to experience for yourself!!
I'll definitely be back next time I'm in town. Huge thanks to David & Fiero for such a memorable night! ❤?View more
Absolutely unforgettable time here! The live flamenco added incredible energy, the drinks were AMAZING (best dirty martini I've ever had), & the atmosphere was electric. The mussels were hands down the best I've ever tasted-so much flavor in that sauce.
But what truly made the night was the service. Our waiter Firo was awesome-attentive, friendly, funny & on point with every detail. Huge shoutout to David, the owner, whose warmth & hospitality took the experience to another level. The best service I've ever had at a restaurant.
Can't wait to come back!
P.S. Don't skip dessert. The tarts, the house cake, the ricotta cake… absolutely 👌View more

Dear Montreal, I don't usually make google reviews often however from my experience tonight, I made sure I had to make one for Casa Galicia! This was NOT written by ChatGPT!
We ordered the paella, the mussels, the lobster soup & a couple drinks for the table. The food was absolutely amazing! While we were waiting for the food to come out, we were delighted with an amazing guitarist & dancer. The atmosphere was so captivating that I could see everyone's eyes locked onto the stage. Also the desserts were fantastic too! We had the house cake & Portuguese tarts!
Lastly & most importantly, the service is what stood out the most. Every server was fantastic & treated us like family. We were able to meet David the wonderful & extremely kind owner of the restaurant. I highly recommend this restaurant if you are in MONTREAL. Thank you, what a night to remember.View more
