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.

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
Wow! The food is absolutely incredible. My boyfriend & I had the Valencia Discovery Menu & every dish was so good. The sangria was also top notch. We ate outside & the ambiance was wonderful. You can still hear the great music but you're able to still have great conversations. The real star of the show was the service. Our waiter Firo so absolutely the highlight. Everything was prompt, we were checked on the appropriate amount of times & he engaged us in lively & fun conversation- I'd go back just for him! Overall, given it's convenient location in the Latin Quarter, amazing food & exceptional service I would recommend Casa Galicia to just about anyone!View more

Everything was perfect - food, service, atmosphere. I ordered paella catalana, & it was delicious. Non-alcoholic sangria was great too!View more
Having a meal at Casa Galicia felt like being transported to Spain. The restaurant is very charming, & it's clear how much hard work has been put into every detail to make the experience as immersive as possible. The food was excellent, but what stood out to me the most was the service & hospitality that Firo & Ley showed. You can truly see the passion they have for making each customer's experience unique & memorable. I will definitely come back-the name of the restaurant truly speaks for itself. It really feels like home!View more
A+ for me !
I have to say, having been to Spain, our passage at the Casa Galicia was by far the closest Spanish experience we can get here in Montreal.
Everything was on point : The food, the ambiance, cleanliness & especially Firo & ley who served us with so much heart.
On top of the great food & culture, the people who served us are the reason why we will surely come back.View more
Had a great time at Casa Galicia. The service was super friendly & on point. Also, the sangria was amaziiing..

Quelle belle découverte ! Nous avons adoré notre expérience au Casa Galicia. La nourriture était incroyable - le poulpe grillé était tendre & savoureux, la paella aux fruits de mer bien garnie & pleine de goût, & les crevettes à l'ail tout simplement délicieuses.
& la sangria… wow ! C'est sans doute la meilleure qu'on ait jamais goûtée - fraîche, fruitée, parfaitement équilibrée.
Le service était exceptionnel. Notre serveur, qui était aussi le propriétaire (je pense qu'il s'appelait David), a été chaleureux, attentionné & vraiment passionné. Il a pris le temps de jaser avec nous & de s'assurer qu'on avait tout ce qu'il nous fallait.
On recommande ce restaurant les yeux fermés. Une vraie perle pour ceux qui aiment la cuisine espagnole & le bon vin dans une ambiance authentique & accueillanteView more
