Outstanding experience ! Felt like I was back in Portugal. The fish were fresh (Seabass) & the starters were absolutely delicious (Grilled octopus & Asparagus salad)
They have a great wine selection & the staff was very kind & professional.
Obrigado !

I honestly didn't expect this to be as good as it was but I can't recommend this place enough, the food is flavourful & fresh & the service is amazing!
Best Portuguese cuisine in Montreal, hands down. Chef Helena's creations are not only delicious but beautifully presented. Each plate is like a work of art. We enjoyed the tasting menu with wine pairings, & every course was exceptional, from the fresh seafood to the tender meats, with flavors that were both authentic & creative.
The service was warm, attentive, & knowledgeable, which made the evening even more enjoyable. The staff explained each pairing & shared details about the dishes, showing real passion for the food & wines.
The ambiance is refined yet welcoming. Helena is perfect for a special night out or celebrating a milestone. Portions were generous for a tasting menu, & the pacing was excellent, giving us time to savor every bite.
We left feeling that Helena offers not just a meal, but a true culinary experience. Highly recommended for anyone seeking fine dining in Montreal, especially lovers of Portuguese cuisine. We'll definitely be returning!
Great Portuguese restaurant with tasty & fresh food. Overpriced at 100+$ per person for high quality but classic dishes at 1/3 the price in Portugal. Paying for bread? Is it necessary? Service is nice & efficient, but not at level of what is expected for top rated restaurant.
Had their signature octopus entree, it was so charred from the grill it tasted burnt along with being dried & tough lacking in flavour. I politely mentioned this to the server when asked if everything was ok. He quickly apologized & replaced it with another one. The second one was slightly warm with the underneath cold,also very mushy & tasted as if it had been boiled which I know that's how they tenderize it but was basically tasteless. My starter was the filet mignon carpaccio, which was overwhelmed with out of date anchovies. I've had theses dishes in other restaurants but theses dishes were a huge disappointment especially when you pay such high prices you expect quality & fresh ingredients. Service was excellent.

Our group recently had the pleasure of dining at Helena in Old Montreal, & it was an absolutely outstanding experience from start to finish. What truly set Helena apart was the impeccable service. The staff were incredibly attentive, welcoming, & remarkably flexible with our various requests, making us feel completely catered to throughout the evening.
The food itself was a highlight. Every dish showcased super fresh ingredients, & the seasoning was simply perfect - enhancing the natural flavors without overpowering them. A must try is the Octopus or the seasonal Asparagus (or both).
If you're looking for a restaurant in Montreal that combines exceptional, accommodating service with delicious, fresh, & perfectly seasoned food, Helena is an absolute must-try. We all left thoroughly impressed & wholeheartedly recommend it! We'll definitely be back.
My dining experience was truly amazing. We visited for dinner, & every aspect exceeded our expectations. The food was fresh & incredibly tasty, & the sides were fantastic. I'm definitely looking forward to coming back to try more dishes. Highly recommended!
I came here with my parents while they were in town & wow! It was a phenomenal experience. Our waitress gave us excellent recommendations for starters. I need to know what the chef put in the dressing because the asparagus salad was delicious. & the octopus was incredible!!! All of the sea food was incredibly fresh & the flavors were super well balanced. My fish came with a sweet potato purée which was almost velvet-y it was so smooth. I would highly recommend this restaurant!

Really delicious way to experience Portuguese cuisine. The seafood is fresh & well prepared & the tapas dishes are so creative. Also, one of the most beautiful restaurants I've ever seen. & get the Portuguese tart for dessert!
