Estiatorio Milos - Montreal

5.0

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. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Eating well in Montreal has become increasingly challenging: high taxes, rising costs, & inconsistent quality often affect the final result. Unfortunately, my experience at Milos reflected exactly this.
The atmosphere & service were excellent-friendly staff & attentive care. However, the food did not live up to the restaurant's reputation. The starters, a cabbage salad with cheese & a small octopus dish of just eight slices, were disappointing for the price.
The main course, lobster with spaghetti, was the real downfall. The lobster tail was already emptied, giving the unpleasant impression of a decorative shell. When I cut into the head, a green paste spilled out, ruining the dish. The sauce-heavy & clearly made with tomato concentrate-overpowered the natural flavor of the lobster, which was rubbery & overcooked.
This approach strays far from true Mediterranean tradition, where seafood is enhanced with fresh ingredients like fresh cherry tomatoes & light preparation. The result was a visually appealing plate with none of the authenticity a food lover would expect.
Paying nearly $400 for two starters & two mains felt excessive. The Milos experience in Montreal does could justify its price but not the reputation, especially for those seeking genuine Greek culinary excellence.

Incredible service from Kaya & Ahmed. They were attentive to our needs the entire time & kept everything clean & comfortable.

We ordered the classic tomato salad & the white fish, both were fresh, flavourful, & consistently delicious as always.

The food came out quickly & the atmosphere was warm & welcoming.

I'm Greek, go to Greece often & Milos is my favourite restaurant.

Kaya is my favorite waitress as well

The food was honestly beyond words. Each dish felt so fresh, from the ingredients to the presentation. The flavors were clean yet rich, comforting yet refined - it's the kind of meal that lingers in your memory. The service was fine, but the food really spoke for itself. I left feeling happy & completely satisfied.

Food was alright, lamb was small & not juicy enough. I've had better seafood elsewhere, the freshness was A+ but the way it was cooked was B at best. Very mediocre for what it was, service was slow & unapologetic. The waiter wasn't very good at explaining dishes & lacked enthusiasm.

Always a top tier dining experience at Milos. Every single appetizer, main course, side dish & dessert I have ever tried on their menu was delightful. The quality & freshness of the fish/seafood is evident, & the preparation & flavours of each dish are remarkable. The decor is elegant, & the ambiance is sophisticated & inviting. The waiters are gracious & very knowledegable ; service is impeccable! Milos ranks amongst the greats of Mediterranean cuisine, for good reason, & is undisputably the best Greek restaurant in town.

An exquisite taste of Greece-impeccably fresh seafood, meats, & vegetables prepared with authentic skill. Our captain (whose name I wish I remembered) offered exceptional service, including a wonderful tour of the ingredients before we ordered.

I've been coming to Milos since 2009, & it remains the best spot for fresh seafood in Montreal. The quality of the ingredients is always top-tier, & the flavors never disappoint. I also love the vibes & the elegant look of the restaurant it's a great place for a special meal.

The private section for groups is a nice touch, offering a more intimate dining experience. The only downside is that it can get a little cold downstairs in the winter due to the air coming from the upstairs door, but that's a small issue compared to the overall experience.

This place is truly a Montreal institution, & I'll keep coming back!

From the moment you step into What A Restaurant, you're met with an atmosphere that effortlessly blends sophistication with warmth. The ambiance is nothing short of spectacular-thoughtfully designed lighting, stylish décor, & a welcoming energy that immediately sets the tone for an exceptional dining experience.

The culinary offerings are equally impressive. Each dish is beautifully presented & bursting with flavor, clearly prepared with fresh ingredients & a careful attention to detail. Whether you're there for a casual meal or a special occasion, the menu offers something for every palate, consistently delivering on taste & quality.

What truly sets this restaurant apart, however, is the service. The staff are attentive, knowledgeable, & genuinely passionate about what they do. A standout among them is James at the bar-an absolute gem & arguably the best bartender in town. His creativity, charm, & mastery of mixology elevate the entire experience.

What A Restaurant is the kind of place you look forward to visiting again & again. A perfect 10/10 every time. Highly recommended.
