À propos
C’est en 1934 que messieurs Delisle et Morissette ouvrent leur restaurant emblématique à quelques pas de l’adresse actuelle. Il y avait 3 étages à l’époque : le restaurant était au premier, une salle de jeu occupait le second et une maison close le 3ème.
En 1964, Monsieur Roland Périsset reprend l’opération et ferme les étages supérieurs.
Notre carte a peu changé depuis 80 ans : poissons et fruits de mer y sont à l’honneur, servis de façon traditionnelle. Nos chefs sont fiers de leur sole de Douvres meunière, signature de la maison que l’on désarêtait autrefois à la table.
Nous sommes restés fidèles aux méthodes traditionnelles, résistant aux modes de la nouvelle cuisine. Il faut 2 jours pour préparer la bisque de homard artisanale, et la recette de la crème à la tomate demeure inchangée depuis des décennies. La présentation des poissons d’une fraicheur et qualité irréprochables est simple, sans artifice.
Au fil des ans, le restaurant change de visage à plusieurs reprises. Il ne reste que la moitié des 38 bancs qui ornaient les fameux bars ou se pressaient tous les midis les avocats, juges, financiers, assureurs et banquiers du Vieux-Montréal. Les bancs, identifiés du nom de nos plus fidèles clients, sont d’époque. L’enseigne extérieure, bosselée à la main par un ferblantier et couronnée de ses 2 tulipes, accueille toujours les clients. Il ne subsiste par contre que les photos de la fresque en porcelaine au dessus du bar à l’époque et qui arborait fièrement les mots : « From wine was sudden friendship springs » tirés de la fable de John Gay ‘The squire and his cur’. Celle-ci fut remplacée par un magnifique tableau du peintre et muraliste montréalais Carlito DalCeggio.

I enjoyed many good meals at the original Chez Delmo, closed now 20 years. It was a treat to visit the new Delmo's, & enjoy good fish & seafood & Malpeques properly prepared. Our waiter, Cedric, was very personable & attentive. He advised us thoughtfully about our selections & our wine. Good to see the profiteroles! Bravo à l'équipe.Voir plus

What a lovely lunch we had while visiting Montreal. We were wandering in the cold & happened to blindly pop into this adorable neighborhood gem. We were welcomed by the owner & seated at the bar as requested. We had a lovely time chatting with him & his daughter. I wish I had gotten their names. The food was spectacular! Started off with a lovely cabbage salad, so fresh & the perfect amount of vinegarette to wake the palate. Next came the lobster bisque, which is so flavorful with large pieces of lobster meat. Not the thick almost gelatinous mess you can sometimes get while dining out. Their recipe is light & so velvety. Next came the lobster roll which was accomplished by a green balsamic vinegarette dressed salad & the most delicious thin & crunchy French fries. The lobster roll was outstanding! The bun was the perfect amount of soft yet toasty & buttery. It was packed with large chunks of soft moist lobster with a light creamy dressing. A little hint of onion or shallot & a whisper of cilantro. If we were locals we would be frequent guests! Already looking forward to coming back this summer!Voir plus

Chez Delmo was an amazing experience from the moment my wife & I stepped through their door. From the owner, to his lovely daughter behind the bar & his attentive son on the waitstaff. This was our first time in, but certainly not our last. The lobster bisque was a true delight to the palate & the lobster roll, was the best I have ever had. Fresh,firm,abundance of lobster tossed in the most perfect dressing. Certainly a must go if you're in the area, guaranteed to not disappoint.Voir plus

Chosen at random due to Montréal a Table, Chez Delmo will now be a permanent fixture on my itinerary anytime I'm in Montréal. I almost melted off my chair at the first bite of veal - perfection - & the maple pudding - I was speechless. The prix fixe menu was stunning; perfectly proportioned, & the wait staff well able to make recommendations. The bar tenders have a sense of urgency & timeliness, the drinks are well made & delicious, & overall, everything comes together for an unforgettable experience I will be raving about for months. Thank you William & Benoit for a wonderful evening 😁Voir plus

My wife & I dined at Chez Delmo twice, while on vacation. A truly exceptional experience in all ways. The lobster bisque is to die for. Had a great time with Benoit, the co-owner, who was pleasant company.Voir plus

In Montreal for 1 night & Chez Delmo was recommended to us by our hotel concierge when we inquired about a local place to eat that had great seafood. The only reservation for 2 available was at the bar & we were ok with that. In the end I am so grateful we dined at the bar as David made our experience all that much better. He was very educated on the menu, made excellent recommendations', made sure his team paid attention to all the small details & had great conversation with us. It was fun watching him mix drinks & I admired his skill, so much so that I had to order a martini after watching him expertly make them. The lobster bisque was chalked full of succulent lobster in a lovely broth. We had beef tartare, which I generally hate but absolutely loved, & oysters to start. My husband had the catch of the day (halibut) while I dined on the creole crab. Everything was superb. We met the owners & heard some of the history of Chez Delmo. It is nice to see such pride in ownership. We definitely do not regret dining here & would make this a staple when we visit.Voir plus

Really We had an issue with an item & the Owner resolved it followed up as expected - no harm no foul. But I have to say after that resolution we were treated by the waitstaff as if we had leprosy. After the table was partially cleared, we waited for someone, anyone, to check in or offer a dessert menu..finally after 20 minutes we had to go chase the server to get one. Let me say, the restaurant was less than half full, so no excuse there. The Tiramsu was good, dish cleared, & we're back to leprosy status again....waiting another 20 minutes & completely ignored again, so we chase down the waiter again for the bill. Really wanted to let the owner know how disappointed we were but he seemed to have developed a singular chatty patty focus on 2 gentlemen seated at the bar. Finally got the bill after 25 minutes..& the waiter snatched the bill from my hand. Very very disappointed in the staff. About the food, the French onion soup & lobster bisque were very good but the walleye, a flakey white lake fish, was so over salted it was nearly inedible...& that's why the food is rated a 3....The waiter was terrible, the food was just ok... Will not go back ..EVER!!!Voir plus
