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.

Milos offers an unparalleled traditional culinary experience. Milos is a very high-end traditional authentic Greek cuisine. One of the very best I have had.
On the day we were there, the batch of fishes, except one kind came directly from Greece by plane ! Mediterranean fishes are well known for their high quality, tasty meat & delicacy.
I tasted 4 entries, 3 main dishes & 3 desserts. Their signature dish of chips style fried zucchini & eggplant with tzatziki is a delight.
I like appetizers/tapas very much. When at the Mediterranean seashore (Greece, Italy, Spain, Portugal) I used to spend few days just eating entries/tapas for breakfast, for lunch & for late dinner. Milos appetizers are extremely tasty, fresh & authentic.
Here, seafood dishes are often, if not always prepared simply so that the customer can easily appreciate the freshness & delicacy of the product.
Even in the middle of the winter, everything there is extra high quality & extra fresh, nearly like the level I had found at the Mediterranean seashore. It's a true tour de force !
All my taken desserts were nice & tasty too.
My favorite dish : The young lamb chops in hotel/french cut is truly amazing. Highest quality chops, simply grilled, executed to perfection reveling ideal combination of tenderless, tastyness & nice flavor - a pleasure for the palate & nose.
The grilled Octopus is also a staple of Milos kitchen. Perfect, from high quality raw meat to execution. Sometime simple things or dishes with few elements are super hard be executed with perfection ... like a nice bread 🍞
The Milos atmosphere is refined with a touch of timeless ancien Greek elegance thru the multitude long white hanging drapes. The mixt of long straight lines & long curve lines all in white of this bright place, reminded me Oia & Santorin.
Milos is the place we can let ourself be immersed in a smooth elegant ambiance & deep Greek hospitality. This large restaurant is very well split in small, immaculate cozy & open spaces.
The kitchen seems way too small for the 160 seats. The delay between each plate rotations is super long. It's so slow.
Service is not yet par of the starred Michelin restaurant. Eyes contact is hard to reach when I needed something. Some waiters, seem sometime lost. I ended to'call' exclusively Kosmas. Price is somehow wallet friendly for that kind of high quality dishes.
If don't have deep pocket or don't want to spend too much, just skip the deluxe products, fish & seafood, on display sold by lbs. The choice of wine is large & also super wallet friendly compare to other fine restaurants in Montreal.
Upon entering, your heavy winter coat is taken from you & stored away. At the table, the water is served nearly right away, which is great. As in most fine dining restaurants, bread, flat & sparkle water are complementary of the restaurant. With each course rotation, the cutlery & utensils are changed. But here, no details of the contents is provided by the staff. There is here an opportunity of improvement as the kitchen is slow & it could elevate the overall dining experience, by providing detailed content of dishes or how it was specifically cooked or how fishes were caught ... it would fill nicely the waiting time with nothing to do, nothing to put on the teeth.
We had the chance to be mostly served by Kosmas. He was enjoyable, attentive, responsive, with the attitude, knowledge & professionalism, I found in starred restaurants. His contribution made our experience delightful at Milos, even with a kitchen that had difficulty to catch up on speed. & speed only, as the dishes were always tasty, flavorful & delightful.
All in all, one of the very best restaurant in Montreal. If you want extra fresh, tasty, authentic & higher Greek cuisine, you don't have to take a plane to Greece, just go there.
This is the original Milo's Estiatorio & 23 years after my first incredible experience I can say nothing has changed. It is incredible how you can visit this restaurant anytime of the year & find the most ripe tomatoes. The service never disappoints & with my most recent experience Kyia over delivered with her friendly attitude, great menu suggestions with wine pairings we were very appreciative. We were particularly impressed with how she prepared our salt crusted fish with great attention to detail & ensuring that the bones were carefully removed to ensure a beautiful eating experience. The entire team from the moment you pull up & Valet Park, to the maitre d, the bar tendera & bathroom staff all very friendly. Bravo Milo's you never disappoint no matter the city it's always a pleasure. This is real Greek fine dining at its very best, no surprise they been voted among the worlds best restaurants over the years. Would highly recommend 👍👍👍
Exceptional seafood experience. Everything was outstanding from start to finish. We began with a beautifully fresh salmon crudo, light & perfectly balanced with citrus & olive oil. The Greek salad was crisp & vibrant, with excellent feta & clean flavors. A delicate fish cake served over white beans was rich yet refined.
The highlight was the Balaka fish - incredibly fresh, expertly grilled, moist, & simply dressed with olive oil, capers, & herbs, letting the quality of the fish shine. Even the roasted potatoes were memorable, perfectly cooked & infused with rosemary & olive oil.
The wine selection was a very pleasant surprise & paired beautifully with the seafood. Service was attentive, professional, & warm throughout. One of the best seafood meals in Montreal. Highly recommended. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Excellent repas. Merci à notre serveur du soir, Sabir, qui, en plus de son service, nous a conseillé en dessert le Ekmek Kataifi....succulent ! La viande ( le filet mignon ), fut délicieuse & cuite comme je l'avais demandé.
