Les Pyrenées est un Jolie restaurant français situé sur St-Paul.
La table d'hôte du midi offre près de dix choix qui varie entre 8$ et 14$. Elle comprend le plat principale, le café ou le thé. Le restaurant offre également une table d'hôte plus complète qui varie entre 15$ et 25.
Les Pyrenées est décrite comme une adresse chaleureuse au cœur du Vieux Montréal, où l’ambiance intime et la carte franco espagnole séduisent par une cuisine variée axée sur les fruits de mer, les paellas et les plats catalans, avec des portions généreuses et des produits frais. Le service est globalement apprécié pour son professionnalisme et ses conseils sur le vin, bien que certains avis signalent des périodes de forte affluence pouvant entraîner des délais ou des erreurs et d’autres citent un rapport qualité prix parfois élevé. La carte propose aussi des options végétariennes et vegan bien accueillies, et les desserts ainsi que les vins au verre ou à la bouteille reçoivent des éloges. Dans l'ensemble, les retours convergent vers une expérience plaisante et mémorable, avec des plats emblématiques bien réalisés et une atmosphère conviviale, tout en notant une possible évolution des recettes et des variations de service selon les visites; la recommandation reste forte et il est conseillé de réserver, surtout les weekends.
Nous avons été très déçus par notre souper de St-Valentin. Le restaurant est catalan en théorie & affiche fièrement le drapeau catalan à l'extérieur. Toutefois, plusieurs éléments indiquent qu'il s'agit d'une fausse représentation :
- Une paella de légumes à 24$ faite avec du riz Uncle Ben's aux tomates. Le riz n'est pas cuit dans une casserole pour les paellas. Il est servi dans une casserole similaire, mais qui est un plat de service pour sauver les apparences.
- Le menu, qui est surtout d'inspiration française ou italienne. On y trouve très peu d'options typiques de l'Espagne, outre la pieuvre & les paellas, faites avec du riz Uncle Ben's.
- La carte des vins, qui comprend très peu de vins catalans & espagnols.
- La représentation de tauromachie à l'intérieur du restaurant, alors que la Catalogne a voulu faire interdire cette pratique. Cette pratique est interdite à Barcelone depuis plus de 20 ans. Il s'agit par ailleurs d'une pratique typique de l'Andalousie, pas de la Catalogne.
Le service, l'ambiance & l'emplacement du restaurant sont très bien, mais la nourriture laisse malheureusement à désirer. Il existe de bien meilleurs restaurants catalans & espagnols à Montréal.

Excellent Spanish inspired reataurant in Old Montreal. Attentive service. Delisciius onion soup - nice body witn crunchy crouton. Paella was amazong. Soft rice, crunchy skibk on the chicken.
Came here for the first time in 2018 & retraced our steps during our current visit in 2025. It was just as good as we remember. We loved the soup of the day (carrot soup) the mushroom risotto appetizer & the salmon was so good. Can't wait to come back again.
Visited Pyrénées for dinner & I have to say the food was awesome. I really enjoyed the French onion soup & the lamb shank. The only issue I had was the service was very slow. Took well over an hour from the time we sat down to get our food. Other then that I'd give this place a try
We went to Pyrenees just by searching on google for a Spanish restaurant. I ordered 12-hour braised lamb that night. I can tell you it that it was one of the best lamb meals I had ever had. So, we went back next time for lunch. This time I ordered lamb shank from lunch menu. Again, it was amazing. Lunch menu was more affordable. For lunch, soup or salad, & coffee were included. I chose soup & coffee. My friend tried salad & coffee. They bring French buggets & some sauce at the beginning. In general, I totally recommend it.
The restaurant was not crowded but we still waited 30 mins for our drinks & soup to show up. The paella was cold & dry when it arrived another 30 mins later. They got the drink order wrong & gave us a free tasteless dessert as a consolation for the bad service & food. Would not recommend
Overpriced & not that good. French onion soup tasted like poutine. Fish was a little tough & dry. Pretty sure they reheat Costco baguettes for their bread (which aren't that bad to be fair) but overall not worth it.
Very good service! Always had someone refilling our glasses. Very polite staff. Food was great other than the French onion soup being too sweet. Everything else A+

Went there for Father's Day. Food was ok. We felt that we were rushed even though restaurant was empty (apart from us there was no one at the restaurant at 11:15 am - outside in terrace seating there were 4- 6 people). The wait staff tried removing the soup bowl before it was finished. He apologized, but later he did the same with the main course dish. We had to tell him that we are still eating. The wait staff added the tip amount by himself & passed the card reader. The tip % was more than we had planned to give due to our experience. Hopefully, they train the wait staff better so people can have better dining experience!
Overpriced & underwhelming tourist trap. We went during the Canadian Grand Prix weekend. Actually, we were shocked we were able to find a table for a large group, but after eating there it became clear. The food was mediocre at best & shamelessly overpriced. The paella was dry, underseasonned & had mostly mussels, a few tiny clams & three shrimp, not any chorizo to speak of. The grilled squid was boiled & absolutely had no flavor. The onion soup was too sweet & unbalanced in flavor. The fried trio platter, tasted of rancid oil & was a bit burned & heavily coated with oil. A couple of meat dishes were dry but edible. Service was good but not outstanding. Not a place I would return to or recommend. We left wondering where all the five star reviews came from.
The service was very good, but the food was disappointing. We ordered the fish soup, goat cheese salad, & Catalonian anchovies to start. The salad was good, but the anchovies & soup were just okay. For the mains, we had the beef tartare & plancha calamari which were on special. We were disappointed with our choices, as the calamari dish was not seasoned & the calamari was a bit chewy, but the rice was pretty good. The beef tartare also disappointed us as the beef was chewy & the potato crisps were stale. Overall while it is a nice restaurant & the staff was amazing, we were disappointed with the execution & quality control of the dishes we ate in comparison to the amount we paid ($240 for the meal & a bottle of wine + taxes & tip).
The service here was sublime. Atmosphere perfect. On general we all enjoyed our food. The selections were excellent. & exceptional vegetarian options. The soupe de poisson was very good. The orange Cake for dessert was nothing short of amazing. Just mildly disappointed in the paella. Would order something different next time but definitely will return for another visit.

We had a great experience. Made a reservation same day for 7pm. Our server was really great, funny & helpful. We enjoyed the French onion soup, the broth was very flavorful. The salmon special for the night & the seafood paella was beautifully presented. Everything tasted great & was really fresh. Great overall experience
What an absolute Gem!!! If you like seafood & Spanish food you have to eat here!! The entrees were devine: cauliflower soup & strawberry goat cheese salad. The paella is absolutely amazing!!! Fantastic service & in the heart of old Montreal, what more can you ask for!! EAT HERE!!!
We had Christmas dinner here & it was a wonderful experience. The service was great & the food was wonderful. The French onion soup was delicious. My husband loved the smoked salmon lasagna. The holiday menu was great. We are so glad we picked here to celebrate
Enjoyed the cozy atmosphere & flavorful dishes at your restaurant! While portions are on the smaller side, the appetizers & soups are a warm & delicious start. The pork cheeks were a highlight - truly tasty!
