Restaurant Solmar (Soleil & Mer du Portugal) est situé au coeur du Vieux-Montréal. Solmar est le premier restaurant portugais à ouvrir ses portes à Montréal. Ouvert depuis 1979, Le restaurant Solmar est une institution familiale et se veut un reflet de la culture portugaise depuis plus de 35 ans. Les spécialités d'origine portugaise sont composées principalement de poissons, de fruits de mer, de viandes, de volailles et de certains gibiers du Québec.
Restaurant Solmar dispose d'une grande cave à vin et de Portos rares.
Casa Solmar recueille des avis élogieux sur une ambiance chaleureuse et un service excellent, avec un personnel attentif dont un serveur parlant plusieurs langues (portugais, français et anglais); les critiques évoquent des plats savoureux allant de la soupe au cabillaud et soulignent un dessert à l'orange magnifique, tandis que les prix du vin sont décrits comme élevés au Canada et qu'un plat semble surcuit, mais l'expérience globale et l'atmosphère donnent envie de revenir cet été.
I had an incredible dining experience ! From the moment I walked in, the ambiance was warm & inviting, with a perfect blend of cozy & chic. The staff were attentive & friendly, providing top-notch service throughout the meal. A special shout-out to our server, Jeremy, who did an amazing job even though it was his first day! He was professional, personable, & made sure our dining experience was flawless. The menu was diverse, offering a great selection of dishes, each one beautifully presented. I tried the Lamb Rack, & it was absolutely delicious-bursting with fresh flavours & cooked to perfection. The grilled octopus also stood out as a unique & flavourful option. Highly recommend for anyone looking for great food, ambiance, & exceptional service!"
Un service rapide & courtois à l'heure du midi, des prix très abordables & de portions généreuses. Le poulet est très bon & le restaurant est bien situé au Vieux-Port

We found our waiter very grumpy. The tapas, were delicious, but too small of a portion. The prices were very high for dinner. I would hesitate to recommend this restaurant for dinner.
Really nice place. I had the option that includes shrimp, octopus & squid, it was great. But my husband had the fish of the day & a soup & told me they werent very flavorful.
An old school fine dining Portuguese restaurant. The attention to detail & service throughout the dining experience are hard to find now. This has been one of my regular stops when visiting Montreal for a long time.

La cuisine excellente. Les sardines portugaises en entrée étaient délicieuses. Le carré d'agneau une pure merveille. Le filet mignon un pur délice. Le SERVICE très attentionné mériterait un 10 étoiles sur 5. Un travail d'équipe formidable. Ils vous font déguster le vin avant que vous ne choissisiez . L'ambiance très agréable pour la musique & la décoration (à l'intérieur). & les desserts sont faits sur place & sont exquis, savoureux...
This was our first trip to Montreal. My wife & I are both foodies, always ready to try something new. We decided to walk, the streets were busy & there was little parking. We hoped to find something interesting & see if we could be successful as walk ins. & at that moment, in the historic Vieux Montreal, we came to Restaurant Solmar, specializing in Portuguese dining. The restaurant is not on street level & required climbing several steps to the second floor. I can't comment on whether there was an elevator or not. We had the place to ourselves! Our waiter, a well groomedprofessional was as polished as the wine glasses he was wiping down. The ambiance was intimate. A restaurant like this is meant for you to sit back, listen to the menu selections & the wine pairing. "Our chef is from Portugal," our waiter said, "& he prepares your dinner like he is still in Portugal." Now, that's what I'm talking about.I wanted the grilled octopus & my wife had the seafood paella. We went with a rioja gran reserva as recommended. Our dinner arrived beyond expectations. The wine worked wonderfully. Our lavish ncomments to the waiter prompted the chef to visit our table where he parted his only cooking secret ... "grilling octopus has to be low & slow, or it is too tough." He got that right.
What a wonderful place! Pure contentment on our part. Ask David about his Portuguese cognacs. They are superb. Would come back again if we lived anywhere near Montreal. Highly recommended.
What a find! The seafood tapas was excellent, the service was warm, friendly & very professional. The decor & music made for a wonderful atmosphere. It's a gem!
A superb continental Portuguese restaurant in the heart of Old Montreal, great Portuguese seafood selections with a distinctive European taste, also with nice regional Portuguese dishes, great attentive service with knowledgeable staff.
