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.
Casa Galicia stands out as a welcoming spot with generous portions, flavorful seafood and paella, friendly service, and a warm authentic Spanish ambiance, enhanced by lively flamenco on select nights and a memorable overall experience that makes guests want to return.
Everything was absolutely wonderful!! From the attentive service to the delicious food, & even the incredible Flamenco show! The whole experience felt vibrant & authentic.
A special thank you to Firo for making our evening so memorable. We truly had an amazing time & will definitely be back!

Had such an amazing experience at Casa Galicia in Montreal! The manager, Firo, was incredibly kind, welcoming, & attentive from the moment we walked in. He really made the night special. The ambiance was so lively & fun - it genuinely felt like we were in Spain. The food, atmosphere, & hospitality were all unforgettable. Can't wait to come back!
This was a fantastic restaurant. The seafood is fresh & cooked perfectly. You have to take the paella. The main reason why we had such a great experience was due to Firo. What a gem. He's funny, attentive, & very welcoming. He sings when he is working which I find so sweet. My family & I loved everything. The service & food was a 10/10.
Excellent endroit j'ai adorer le service de notre serveur firo tres aimable & agreable & la bouffe etait super bonne je recomande fortement leur paeilla
Superbe expérience ! Dès l'arrivée, on est accueilli chaleureusement par Firo, le gérant, une personne vraiment attachante & pleine de bonne humeur. On sent tout de suite sa passion pour la cuisine & pour ses clients.
Les plats traditionnels espagnols sont extrêmement généreux & surtout délicieux - des saveurs authentiques qui nous transportent directement en Espagne.
En plus, le vendredi soir, nous avons eu la chance d'assister à un magnifique spectacle de flamenco. Une ambiance incroyable qui a rendu la soirée encore plus spéciale.
C'était vraiment comme un voyage en Espagne le temps d'un repas. Je recommande sans hésiter à tous ceux qui veulent passer une soirée mémorable !
La nourriture & l'ambiance étaient superbes. Le service était d'autant plus agréable avec Firo le gérant qui nous a traités comme si on était à la maison, très chaleureux ☺?.
