This restaurant is highly rated in the middle eastern community in Montreal & to me as an old Montreal citizen & gladly now consider myself a true Floridian never to regret leaving Montreal I thought this restaurant now reflects all what is wrong with Quebec .compared to what we have in south Florida now great dining experiences with great quality middle eastern food & al overall dining ,la sirène atmosphere is very nice but the food quantity & pricing is frankly bad. Compared to the USA middle eastern experience.the bill even with the sadly bad exchange rate is exorbitant & shameful the fish that is there pride was tasteless & with no sauces nor sides. The bill was exorbitant & add to that the ridiculous sale tax & the tip also is expected to be added to this ridiculous price makes it a painful dining Experience even for the well off client.sadly montreal is loosing its old reputation of a good nice affordable dining experience to mediocre painful super expensive & unattractive city to dine at .sorry Montreal 🥲🥲🥲🥲 & as a critical snd consumer very friendly reviewer I rate this place 4 for atmosphere but overall a 1 star for value for your money .
I've been going to La Sirène for over 20 years & it has never once disappointed. This restaurant is truly exceptional & has become a real Montreal institution.
The food is always outstanding - incredibly fresh, beautifully prepared, & remarkably consistent. Their fish market is easily one of the best in Montreal, offering exceptional quality seafood every time.
What also makes this place stand out is the service. Many members of the staff have been there for years, & they are incredibly attentive & well-trained. They genuinely remember their clients, their preferences, & their needs, which makes every visit feel personal & welcoming.
The owner is also very present, friendly, & attentive, which contributes greatly to the warm atmosphere of the restaurant.
Whether for lunch or dinner, La Sirène consistently offers exceptional food & service. If you are looking for one of the best & most reliable dining experiences in Montreal, this restaurant truly delivers every single time.
We were really disappointed with our experience. The food is just not the same anymore & lacks flavor. We ordered a wide variety of dishes - meat, fish, appetizers, & salads - hoping at least some would stand out, but unfortunately everything was quite bland & not tasty.
On top of that, the service was also disappointing.
This restaurant is not what it used to be. The quality of both the food & the service has clearly gone down. Sadly, we won't be coming back.
Fantastic quality fresh fish & whole foods. Perfect for groups & family affairs. The cheese phyllo appetizer is incomparable. I highly recommend getting all the dips
I've been coming here for the past 14 years, & it used to be one of the nicest seafood restaurants. Unfortunately, the quality of service has declined, & there is now an unpleasant smell in the dining area. They once had amazing waiters, but my last three visits have been disappointing. Except for the gentleman with the ponytail, who is excellent, I see new staff every time I come.
This was our last visit. Today, it was just the two of us. The waiter brought the wrong main dish for me, & both the appetizers & main courses arrived at the same time. Since my wife's order was correct, she had no choice but to start eating without me so her food wouldn't get cold. I waited about 30 minutes before receiving my meal.
The food quality remains somewhat the same as what it used to be for the past few years, but the service has deteriorated. The staff appeared uninterested in their work, playing with glassware & making noise, which made the place feel chaotic. I am still giving this restaurant two stars only because we once loved it. Sadly, we will not be returning.
