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.
Merveilleuse découverte dans le Vieux Montréal.
Excellente cuisine & service impeccable.
Très occupé lors de notre passage.
La paëlla & les joues de porc etaient sublimes ainsi que la crème Catalane.
Nous reviendrons avec plaisir.
Delicious food & ambiance was great. I appreciated the great customer service that was received. The place was pretty packed but felt like we still got really good service. I ordered the seafood paella, gazpacho & veggie sandwich. Would recommend getting reservations during holiday season or weekends.

La comida era bastante mediocre para lo que cuesta.
Tenía expectativas por el precio y la ubicación.
El servicio fue bastante malo, la persona que nos atendió fue bastante ruda desde que pedimos y se confundió con la orden, ni nos trajo el vino que pedimos.
¿Volveríamos? Quizá no, por el precio/calidad creo que hay muchos mejores restaurantes en la ciudad.
Si je pouvais donner plus de 5 étoiles à ce restaurant, je le ferais sans hésiter. Pyrenees a longtemps été l'un de mes restaurants préférés. J'y allais souvent pour la fameuse plaque avec les calamars & les légumes grillés c'était un vrai délice ainsi que leurs pâtes aux fruits de mer, qui étaient tout simplement succulentes.
Malheureusement, depuis environ un an & demi, les recettes changent constamment & ce n'est plus du tout la même expérience. Je crois que le chef a changé à plusieurs reprises ou qu'il essaie trop d'innover. C'est vraiment dommage, parce que les anciennes recettes étaient exceptionnelles & faisaient toute la réputation du restaurant. J'espère sincèrement qu'ils reviendront à leurs classiques, ceux que les anciens clients comme moi adoraient tant.

Delicious spot of French & Spanish fusion- we absolutely loved this restaurant. We had a variety of options from menu including the seafood chorizo Paella, duck salad, octopus, & stew. Waiter was extremely knowledgeable & friendly, & helped us choose a wonderful wine to accompany our dinner. Will come again!
Today we celebrated our 7 year anniversary at the restaurant where we also had our reception & I am extremely grateful we did. Not only was the food delicious but the service was absolutely impeccable. I thought that due to the long weekend the venue would be busy but it was intimate enough for the servers to provide a wonderful experience yet again. I can't recommend this restaurant enough & this time I won't wait as long to to come back. Thank you for making our anniversary so special!
Amazing! Starting with the Navarra Otazu cuvée premium red wine then a fabulous vegetable lasagna & grilled sesame encrusted tuna, & a chocolate fondant cake with creme chiboust with a hint of maple syrup. Jeremy made us feel like we were in his home.
Had a lovely evening. Vibrant atmosphere, really tasty food & very attentive staff. Would happily eat here again if we were staying longer in Montreal.
We went on a busy night which seemed unexpected by the staff. Our appetizer came quickly, but entrees (including for kids) took an hour & a half to arrive & when they did, 3 out of 4 of them were cold.
Concierge at our hotel recommended Les Pyrenees because I was looking for vegetarian dinner options. Excellent food & ambience. We ended up going multiple nights. Everyone is very polite & makes you feel welcome. Speaking French or English, there is no problem either way. The portions are very generous (my experience from vegetable lasagna & penne ratatouille). Look for the senyera flag hanging outside, this place is awesome.
