Service was fantastic. Food seemed overcooked & like it was reheated. However, I'd still give it another try because service & atmosphere were wonderful. There were also unique options & other things I would be willing to try.View more

Très bon service & bonne cuisine, pour la morue grillée à la portugaise. Bon plat mais onéreux, 40$, selon moi au vu de la simplicité du plat qui est des légumes & un morceau de poisson. Vin au verre au prix un peu excessif aussi.View more

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!"View more

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.View more

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.View more

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...View more

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.View more
