Milos Restaurant is located on the historical Avenue Du Parc, a few blocks north of Mount-Royal park. This simple, but warmly decorated restaurant serves starters such as grilled octopus, calamari, Portuguese sardines or crab to name a few.
Estiatorio Milos - Montreal is described across reviews as a Montreal institution known for superb, fresh seafood, a refined yet inviting atmosphere, and consistently attentive service, with the Milos special of crispy fried zucchini and eggplant often cited as a standout starter alongside octopus, whole Mediterranean fish, and crisp Greek salads where the quality of ingredients shines; while the dining room ambiance and the breadth of seafood options are praised, the price point is repeatedly noted as high and some reviewers question value, though lunch prix fixe is seen by many as good value; a few visits report slower pacing, noisier spaces, or occasional inconsistencies in execution, but overall impressions lean toward a memorable, high-end Greek-Mediterranean experience that remains a top destination for fresh seafood in Montreal.
On peut déçu par le service, nous avons eu notre table 50 minutes après l'heure de notre réservation, si on n'avait pas insisté on aurait certainement attendu plus longtemps. Service plutôt moyen, le personnel avait l'air un perdu, mais la cuisine reste excellente, si ce n'est un immense cheveux dans la salade! Bref expérience moyenne!
Milos never disappoints. They have amazing seafood... service... well everything is world class. They pay attention to all the details & the food is clearly made with care. Ive been to several Milos locations & the food is consistently great across the board. Highly recommend & make reservations..
My wife read in a Toronto paper about the owner of Estiatorio Milos who has a number of restaurants around the world. I was scrambling for a place to celebrate a substantial wedding anniversary, & I managed to get a table at Milos. Firstly, everything is true that you've probably heard about Milos. That it is a first rate restaurant. That the food is a cut above the rest. That the decor is perfection. That the service is impeccable. & it is. & maybe that should garner them 5/5, but for me, they're not pushing the envelope. The taramasalata was possibly the best I've had. The frittered zucchini & eggplant is delicious. The bread & olive oil is very good. The octopus was extraordinary. If you don't read this review further, I'd suggest just getting a huge selection of tapas, which are broad an varied. Where it starts to fall down for me, is that it's just a little too perfect. It's precisely what you expect, & nothing more. Nothing less, but nothing more. The service is excellent, maybe just a little too perfect -- & when the server warmed up, it was great. But I did have to ask for a second bottle of water twice from the back waiter. The main dish we ordered was a little disappointing. It was halibut, which suffers from a lack of flavour generally, & in my opinion needs a lot of work to make it interesting. On the other hand, it did represent precisely the way halibut is, & it was subtle with a lovely tomato that had turned into a nice coulis. But it needed more flavour to my taste. The rapini was good -- nothing special, just good rapini. Frites were good -- needed a little more work. So this is a place which presents precisely what the food is, in its most elemental form, & that does require some level of respect, which I definitely give. However, this is 2024, & while it would have been mind blowing in 1979, this is just excellent. & that's where, for me, the fault lies. I wouldn't hesitate to take clients there, because it is renowned, expensive, fancy, & excellent. But in 2024, there are just too many interesting alternatives in Montreal.

Milos is a stunning gem that elevates the dining experience to new heights. From the moment you step inside, the elegant decor & sophisticated ambiance set the tone for an unforgettable evening. The seafood here is exceptional, showcasing the freshest ingredients sourced from the finest markets. Each dish is a celebration of flavor & presentation. Service at Milos is top-notch-attentive & knowledgeable, the staff is dedicated to ensuring a seamless experience. They offer great recommendations & are genuinely passionate about the menu. To round off the meal, the desserts are a must-try. The baklava was an exquisite blend of flaky pastry & rich nuts.
I like everything about Milos ! Great atmosphere & food is simply amazing. I recommend to everyone to book in advance since its always busy there. Un incontournable a Montreal !!!
Malheureusement, j'avais encore faim après les trois services du dîner. Je suggère que vous devez ajouter plus de pain. Par ailleurs, j'aime beaucoup le cadre du restaurant & le service était très sympathique.
Excellent food. The prix fix lunch is a steal. Update from 2024-sep-19. Went for dinner with close friends from out of town. The service was downright horrible & left me embarrassed. Waiters weren't able to explain the dishes & what ingredients & portion sizes. We chose some appetizers & asked how big they are ... the response was it is just an appetizer size then ordered some sides that basically included the same ingredients as appetizer, when questioned the waiter why they did not mention this .. the response was ... that is what you ordered. Waiters were whispering behind our backs in very unprofessional way. The quality of the food is still good, but when you spend over $700 for 4 adults it is not a great overall experience. My recommendation is only to visit this place for prix fix lunch.

Outstanding, as always! The highest quality ingredients, prepared to perfection & impeccably served. Only criticism is the noise. Please, please get acoustic tiles on the ceiling.
Le Milos est un incontournable à Montréal! Jamais déçu de la nourriture ! Je recommande cette endroit. Pour moi le crab cake, les pâtes au homard ainsi que la baklava accompagné de sa crème glacé valent un 10/10
Went on Thursday night, even with reservation were waiting long time , very crowded, extremely noisy, too many close table , can't have a conversation, rushed service , they looked overwhelmed & stressed , overall not a premium experience, food was not bad , but cold . Very disappointed , because several years ago it was excellent restaurant

Nourriture excellente ainsi que le service..un peu dispendieux mais quand ces bon ces pas grave..seul bemol un peut de riz ou patate en accompagnement serait ok
Amazing dining experience, a truly culinary journey. From the ambiance, to the server's knowledge & confidence, to the creative plates & fresh ingredients; it all comes together for a great experience.
