Les Pyrenées offers a cozy, atmospheric spot in Old Montreal where Spanish and Catalan flavors come to life in a varied menu that includes seafood paella, tapas, vegetarian options, and generous portions paired with a thoughtful wine list. Reviewers consistently note warm hospitality and attentive, knowledgeable staff, with the vibe described as intimate yet lively and outdoor dining on nice nights is a plus. Many highlight dishes such as scallops, octopus, gazpacho, lamb, and especially paella, along with desserts and sauces that elevate the meal. While praised for quality and character, some visits feel expensive for the value and a few experiences mention slow service, order mixups, or meals arriving cold or underseasoned. Vegetarian and vegan options are a strength, with several diners appreciating the consideration for different diets. Reservations are recommended, especially during holidays or weekends, given the busy Old Port location. Overall, Les Pyrenées is seen as a strong French-Spanish fusion option in Montreal, delivering memorable meals and hospitality, even as consistency can vary between visits.
Dommage que la parillada de poissons ait été tiède plutôt que chaude;du coup, j'ai été un peu déçu par rapport à mon dernier dîner en août dont le bon souvenir m'a conduit à revenir.
This restaurant has typical Spanish/ Catalan dishes. The waiters were awesome, very caring & nice. They did beyond what we expected to make us feel welcome & comfortable. The food is delicious & the ambiance very cozy & inviting.
Well done Les Pyrenees!

Amazing little place that looks to be expensive but is not. Portions for the price were incredible for food of this caliber. The server (owner?) was very pleasant & attentive. Will be back for sure.
Amazing place to eat, have coffee or enjoy their patio, the owner was incredibly welcoming along with their service staff, I’d recommend coming here if you’re in Montreal
I visited Old Montreal for (5) five days & Les Pyrenees was by far the absolute "best restaurant", of (6) six that I visited while on vacation! They were very friendly & courteous. I had the privilege of having the owners son wait on our table. He was very friendly & a pleasure to converse with, & made us feel like we were at home. They served absolutely the best Paella I have ever eaten, & the seafood was fresh with the rice & Chorizo seasoned like real authentic Spanish & French style cooking is known for. To cap off my meal, I had Crème Bruellee for dessert which was unbelievably awesome! I highly recommend this restaurant! You will not be disappointed!

Everything about the place was good. The soup of the day was lovely. The beek cheeks were nice. Service was pleasant, even though they forgot about my glass of wine until the end. All in all; good.
Came here on a recommendation, food & cocktails were delicious but the pricing for the food you get is atrocious. We decided to split a couple of appetizers which sounded great, the scallops & risotto. They absolutely were delicious, but $25 pre-tax for two scallops? Come on.
Que du bonheur!!! Nous étions trois à célébrer un événement & je peux dire que tout était parfait : Un service impeccable fourni par un personnel sympatique, un repas savoureux, une cuisson parfaite, des desserts succulents agrémentés de petits à-côtés qui font toutes la différence & tout ça à un prix plus qu'honnête!
Le restaurant est plus mignon qu'il ne le parait sur les photos de leur site Web. Un très bon service & la bouffe wow.
C'est très copieux. Mon chum n'à même pas tout manger sa paella. Moi en plat principal c'était une céleste morue. Ça fondait dans la bouche. Les desserts étaient succulents. Microscopique bémol, on constate qu'ils offraient aux clients un muscat à la fin du repas. On trouvait ça cool. On n'y a pas eu droit. Enfin, on y retournera quand même, c'était trop bon.
Wow, j'adore ce restaurant & je compte bien y retourner. J'y étais allée avec une amie & nous avions été surprises par l'excellent service & la qualité des plats. J'avais pris les joues de veau braisées & c'était vraiment bon. Mon amie à pris les pétoncles en entrée & encore une fois: Wow!! J'y suis ensuite retournée avec mon copain cette semaine & il a essayé leur spécialité, la Paella. C'était tout simplement excellent. Je n'ai que du bon à dire de ce restaurant & j'ai bien hâte d'y retourner. Le service était plus qu'excellent les 2 fois & je voulais le mentionner. Je crois que c'est Max & Guillaume qui étaient les serveurs. Je vous recommande fortement ce resto!!
