Absolutely delicious! The paella was packed with flavor & cooked to perfection. I also loved the chicken wings & fried calamari everything was fresh, tasty, & well-seasoned. Great atmosphere & friendly service made the experience even better. Definitely a place I'll be coming back to!
The food was decent but the service was not good. The restaurant only had one other couple in it & our server did not check on our meal or offer us drinks after the first drink. We were on holiday & walked away disappointed. In reading the other reviews it seems like maybe a staffing issue & not a regular occurrence.
J'ai adoré mon expérience à La Paella! Les serveuses étaient super gentilles & accueillantes & la nourriture excellente! Des entrées, au plat & au dessert, je me suis régalée du début à la fin! Si vous souhaitez un petit goût de l'Espagne, je vous recommande!
Je suis allée manger au restaurant La Paella & j'ai passé un moment incroyable. J'ai pris une poutine au poulet, rien à dire : c'était super bon ! J'ai aussi goûté un peu de la paella & j'ai apprécié. Côté boisson, j'ai choisi une pina colada & je l'ai adorée. Il faut toujours un bon drink pour accompagner un repas, & celle-ci était parfaite. Je la recommande fortement si vous ne savez pas quoi choisir. Le service était impeccable : le personnel est très accueillant & s'assure que tout se passe bien. L'ambiance est géniale, avec une touche de musique latine qui donne envie de bouger, mais sans être trop forte. Si vous hésitez à y aller, foncez ! C'est l'endroit parfait pour passer un bon moment en famille ou entre amis.
La Paella is hands-down one of the best dining experiences I've had in Montreal!
From the moment we walked through the door, we were greeted by the incredibly warm & welcoming staff. Everyone we interacted with was genuinely friendly, kind, attentive, & passionate about what they do. You can tell they truly care about creating a great experience for their guests.
They took time to explain the menu, offered great recommendations, & checked in often without being intrusive.
Now let's talk about the food-absolutely delicious!
The Chicken & Chorizo Paella at La Paella is an absolute showstopper & easily one of the standout dishes on their menu. From the very first bite, it's clear that this paella is made with love, care, & serious culinary skill. The chicken is perfectly tender-juicy on the inside with a slight crisp on the outside -seasoned with just the right balance of herbs & spices to bring out deep, comforting flavors.
But the real magic happens when it's combined with the Spanish chorizo. The sausage is smoky, slightly spicy, & packed with bold flavor, adding an incredible depth to the dish without overpowering the other ingredients. It blends beautifully with the rice, infusing it with a rich, savory essence that builds with every bite.
The ambiance is the perfect balance between cozy & vibrant. The decor is warm & rustic, with Spanish touches that give the place an authentic Mediterranean charm. The music, lighting, & overall vibe make it feel like a hidden gem-ideal for a date night, dinner with friends, or any special occasion. La Paella is more than just a restaurant, it's a place where amazing food, wonderful people, & a relaxed, joyful atmosphere come together. Can't recommend it highly enough!
