Résumé des avis

Le Virunga propose une cuisine d'inspiration africaine qui marie des ingrédients locaux du Québec à des épices et des saveurs audacieuses, dans une ambiance élégante et cosy du Plateau de Montréal, propice à une soirée ou un repas intime; les plats sont savoureux et souvent surprenants, bénéficiant d'un travail réfléchi et d'un équilibre entre tradition et modernité, tandis que le service est attentif et professionnel et que la carte des vins, axée sur l'Afrique du Sud, complète bien les découvertes; le menu évolue au fil des saisons et peut être adapté pour les options vegan, ce qui est apprécié, même si les portions peuvent parfois être modestes et que le coût peut sembler élevé à certains; l'ensemble est perçu comme une expérience mémorable et recommandable, tant pour ses saveurs riches que pour son caractère unique.

Le Virunga was wonderful! We love trying new (to us) foods & everything here was delicious. We started with pan-African-inspired cocktails that were delightfully refreshing on a warm night....we especially recommend one named after Nelson Mandela. The appetizers & main dishes were skillfully prepared & subtle spicing perfectly complemented the flavor of the food. The restaurant is lovely & the ambiance calm & welcoming & service was very efficient & friendly. We're from Maine & come to Montreal each year to savor new experiences...& Le Virunga definitely provided a great new dining experience! We'll be back!

I wanted to discover something new & authentic during our recent visit to Montreal. While browsing eater, Le Virunga caught my attention & I decided to try it. While my diet is mainly vegetarian, I occasionally eat non vegetarian dishes. My husband & I were pleasantly surprised by the high quality of the dishes & a range of amazing new flavors at this neighborhood restaurant. We absolutely loved the fact that the atmosphere was very relaxing & comfortable yet sophisticated. I sincerely admire the mother & daughter team & their determination to bring a piece of their African heritage to this northern city. Thank you! I wish you all the best in your persuit of your dreams! PS If possible, please add more vegetarian dishes to your menu.

Absolutely delicious. The only drawback was a thunderstorm knocked out the power during the meal! This put the staff to the test, who rose to the challenge beautifully.

Highly recommend the pangasius, a very light, flaky catfish. Pinotage & Mandela Tonic paired well with the light, flavorful fare. Would definitely come back!

Delicious & carefully prepared. The appetizer of pulled tilapia was small, but had an excellent & unique flavor. The main course of braised goat was a more normal sized portion & was tender & flavorful. I would absolutely go back

Amazing place! We had no idea what to expect, & it turned out to be even more tasty & unique. Subtle flavors of Africa is the best way to put it. The service was also excellent. Small, romantic setting with nice modern African music playing. If you are looking for something new, with a twist of adventure, check this place out. Don't forget to get the Poutine with goat on top! The soup is amazing as a starter too.
