Across the reviews El Mida is described as a warm welcoming Tunisian dining spot with generous portions, flavorful Mediterranean and Tunisian dishes, and friendly, attentive service often paired with an inviting homey vibe and authentic ambiance. Diners praise the bread, the variety of dishes such as ojja, merguez, seafood pasta, brik, mechouia, and salads, and the generous portions that can feed more than one. The karaoke nights stand out as memorable experiences, adding to a lively atmosphere, though some mentions of occasional delays and uneven pacing suggest service can vary. Value is a recurring theme; portions are huge and prices sometimes higher, but many feel the quality and portion size justify it, while a few feel the price is steep for the experience. Several comments highlight authentic Tunisian hospitality and a family friendly or festive vibe, with customers coming from different countries planning returns, and some say the restaurant feels like a home away from home. Overall El Mida is depicted as a standout Mediterranean and Tunisian dining option in Montreal, with strong praise for flavor, portions and atmosphere, paired with some notes for potential improvements in service consistency and recipe tweaks.

Came for the food, stayed for the karaoke. The one plate of Ojja I ordered was delicious, but it was also enough to feed a whole family. Portions are HUGE.

5 étoile ⭐? pour le personnel très accueillant & le service impeccable, 5 étoile ⭐? pour les plats pennes au crevettes, ojja fruit de mer & ojja merguez. Le pain fait maison est très bon aussi. Une petite déception pour le couscous car la viande d'agneau n'était pas comme celle présentée sur la photo du menu, n'était pas non plus assez tendre & le couscous un peu sec. Donc je recommanderais que le restaurant revisite le couscous!

Such an incredible restaurant! The food was delicious, the atmosphere was nice & the servers was so friendly & knowledgeable. We really wish they had a location in Toronto! The tabouna, & Tunisian trio salads were such a great start to our meal with the brik. The moloukhia & seafood ojja were *chefs kiss*. My brother enjoyed the lamb couscous & said the lamb was cooked perfectly & his gf loved the seafood pasta! Whenever we return to Montreal, we will be at El Mida. But please open up in Toronto. People will love it even if they aren't Tunisian (trust me)!

Nous sommes partis manger à 4 un vendredi soir & c'est comme si nous n'étions pas ensemble... aucun plat n'est arrivé en même temps que les autres. Des entrées sont arrivées après des plats quelqu'un avait déjà finis son plat que les autres n'avaient toujours pas reçus le leur. Aucune excuse par rapport au retard. La ojja fruits de mer était bonne, la daurade aussi mais tout le reste, brik, mlokheya, calamars dorés, slata méchouia... que des déceptions au niveau du goût & de la texture. Dommage à travers la page du resto je pensais que c'était un lieu de haute qualité mais finalement c'était que du marketing...
