Celebrations, casual nights out, and date nights all feel at home here, and visitors frequently leave impressed by the consistency of quality across meals, drinks, and desserts.
I was invited to the terrasse launch at La Paella & even though the rain made us move inside, the vibe stayed amazing. The tapas were delicious, the white sangria was a standout, & the service was super warm. Can't wait to go back & try their famous paella! 🥘☀?🥂 IG @Fafatou
I was invited to the terrasse opening at La Paella, & even though classic Montréal spring weather made a surprise appearance (yes, the rain came & we had to move inside), the evening still had such a great vibe.
I started with a glass of their white wine sangria-light, fruity, & way too easy to sip. Then came the tapas lineup: spicy patatas bravas, creamy salade russe, salty prosciutto, & a playful chicken poutine that gave a fun Québécois twist to the Spanish spread. Everything was cozy, flavorful, & perfect for sharing.
The terrasse itself is super charming, with a view of the Village that's full of energy & personality. I'll definitely be back when the sun decides to stick around. & while this event was all about the tapas, I've got my eye on their paella next time-I mean, it is in the name.

Very nice staff, & cozy resto. I went for tapas during the afternoon & everything was delicious. The jamon was fresh, potatoes had a marvelous sauce on them & the drinks were👌. I would defs come back.
Très belle expérience. Le service était parfait & les plats excellents. L'atmosphère est aussi très agréable. Je recommande ce restaurant pour des sorties entre amis ou encore avec la famille.
La Paella is an absolute gem in Montreal for anyone who loves authentic Spanish cuisine. The ambiance is warm & charming with a touch of rustic Mediterranean flair - the kind of place where you feel welcome the moment you step in. The paella, of course, is the star. I tried the Paella Royale, & it was generously packed with perfectly cooked seafood & tender meats, all infused with the rich, saffron-kissed flavors of Spain. Prices were fair for the quality & portions. It's a perfect spot for a date night or group dinner. I'll definitely be coming back!'
an intimate gem, with its warm atmosphere & traditional cuisine. We had the pleasure of indulging in their very large paella, & it was incredibly satisfying! Packed with great flavors & showcasing perfectly cooked seafood.
In addition to the paella, we highly recommend the charcuterie & cheese plates. Each dish was crafted with fresh ingredients. They offer an excellent selection that pairs beautifully with their delicious tapas & cocktails.
It delivers authentic Iberian specialties, for anyone looking to explore traditional Spanish cuisine. 🇪🇸✨
