Estiatorio Milos represents an international standard for Mediterranean seafood preparation by prioritizing the absolute freshness of its market-sourced ingredients. Patrons select raw specimens directly from an iced display case, where the daily catch determines the core of the menu. Preparation techniques emphasize simplicity through charcoal grilling, olive oil infusions, and seasoning with hand-harvested sea salt. The signature Milos Special consists of thinly sliced, lightly fried zucchini and eggplant served with crisp saganaki cheese and tzatziki. This establishment maintains a commitment to Hellenic tradition by showcasing whole fish roasted in sea salt crusts to preserve moisture and flavor profiles. Complementary sides feature garden-fresh vegetables drizzled with Greek extra virgin olive oil to complete the focus on clean, high-quality maritime products within a minimalist and open interior space.
Estiatorio Milos is widely regarded as a premier destination in Montreal for authentic, high-quality Greek cuisine, particularly celebrated for its exceptionally fresh seafood and signature dishes like the fried zucchini and eggplant tower. Many guests praise the elegant, airy atmosphere and consistently delicious food, often highlighting the professional and attentive service provided by the staff. However, experiences can be polarized; while many diners enjoy a flawless visit, others have reported inconsistencies in service quality, occasional communication frustrations, and concerns regarding the high price point relative to the portion sizes and overall value. Despite varying feedback on noise levels and pricing, it remains a popular choice for special occasions and a staple of the city's dining scene.
Excellent food, portions for lunch are perfect, very simple but beautiful decor, service can be a little better, but maybe because it was busy that day for lunch. Great place for lunch or dinner.
I just want to introduce my favorite plate every time I must order this sashimi plate . Tastes good & fabulous looking . Honestly speaking , their food all taste pretty good , especially those appetizer such as zucchini , mushrooms etc don't just order main course , order more appetizers, you ll love this restaurant
We had the pleasure of dining at Milos on December 28, & it was an extraordinary experience from start to finish. Eva went above & beyond to accommodate our party of 12, ensuring we had a seamless & comfortable evening. Our waiter, George, was truly exceptional-knowledgeable, attentive, & personable. He explained every dish with such care & detail, enhancing our appreciation for the incredible cuisine. We opted to dine family-style, sharing a variety of dishes, which was the perfect way to experience the diverse & delicious menu. The food was absolutely outstanding-every single dish was a hit with the entire group. While Milos isn't inexpensive, it was worth every penny for the quality, service, & memorable evening. It was a wonderful treat that left us all raving about the food & the experience. Highly recommend Milos for a special occasion or when you simply want to enjoy an unforgettable meal. Thank you to the team for making our evening so remarkable!

Our server Helen was knowledgeable, friendly & professional. She was great! However, when I first arrived, I waited more than seven minutes at the entrance before I entered the dining room to look for the hostess. There were other staff members working behind & around the bar but no one made eye contact or even welcomed my guest & me. Luckily, the absolute beautifully presented & delicious food, & Helen made it an enjoyable experience despite the disappointing first impression.
Very beautiful restaurant. I ordered & shared the milos special, grilled sea bream, & also the tomato salad (Greek). I also had the baklava dessert with icecream. Food was phenomenal & delicious. Expensive for what it is but great I went for the first time.
Great service from our waitress who took the time to introduce us to the fish market & explained everything. She was on point with everything & made our experience her worth coming back. We ordered a variety of dishes & my favorite was the Sepia & the Black Sea Bass with the amazing dessert that they offer. Baklava & Greek yogurt was def a must have to finish the night here.
Milos c'est la perfection en tout point. Un plaisir qu'on partage pour les grandes occasions. Pas pour tous les portefeuilles mais le menu midi, plus abordable, vous laissera ravis de cette expérience culinaire.
Gorgeous restaurant. Very expensive, but one of those places that makes it worth it. What's interesting is the main dishes are expensive, but they are normal expensive, the appetizers are the ones that stick out. Fried zucchini for $30+... very good, like extremely good, just expensive. We had 4 people, with tax & tip it was $750+ with drinks included. The restaurant itself is very well designed. Extremely pretty & the service was fantastic. The very unique thing was the waiter who guided us to the fish market area (away from our table) to explain each fish so we could be knowledgeable when ordering. We got the milo special (amazing), the octopus (this was good but not crispy enough imo, but the fava beans on the dish tasted like smooth hummus, very good), the cuddle fish (I think they call it spina, is a traditional Greek dish) which was tasty. For mains we had lobster spaghetti, lamb, tuna, & snapper which we all shared. The spaghetti lobster was the stand out.
