Review Summary

LOV is described across reviews as a standout vegetarian vegan spot in downtown Montreal with a warm, cozy, sometimes upscale vibe and beautifully presented dishes. Diners frequently praise the wide range of plant based options, creative cocktails, and consistently tasty dishes like pasta, risottos, tacos, dumplings, and the cauliflower, with several noting the vegan burgers and fish tacos as highlights. The service is repeatedly described as friendly and attentive, though a few visits report slow or inconsistent service and occasional kitchen or timing issues, especially during busy periods. Ambiance and decor are often cited as a draw, with romantic lighting or charming spaces, while some guests find the noise or the pacing a bit challenging. Overall, LOV is celebrated as a must visit for veggie lovers, with many expressing intent to return, though a handful of meals fell short on flavor, value, or execution.

Really diverse menu. Perfect for a full meal or just drinks & appetizers. I saw people doing small events like birthday celebrations & it looked really nice. It is a very aesthetic place. Service was quick & I really enjoyed the food & drinks.

Great vibes, great drinks & dessert, horribly salted & peppered mains. Came with two others before the eclipse so we expected an unusually long wait & weren't bothered by it. Waitstaff was overwhelmed & forgetful, but apologetic & extremely friendly. The cocktails were AMAZING & the appetizers were great, but we were all disappointed with the entrees. I had the mushroom risotto that was both so salty & so peppery that you couldn't taste any of the mushrooms. My partner had a pasta dish that was likewise too salty to enjoy. Our friend had the quinoa bowl which was OK at best; the desserts were much better across the board. I'd give this place another chance, even for how pricey it was.

This place is 100% vegan & 100% great. We made a reservation, highly recommend to do so, & we had high expectations & they were definitely met I'm vegan & my partner isn't. She loved all the food there & didn't miss meat at all. We decided to share 3 plates & it was the better choice because we got to try several things. She really loves the crustini, it was rich & filling. My favorite was the fish tacos. Inside is really nice & fresh looking. The service was great & we didn't have to wait long for our server to check back in on us & get us drinks or what ever we needed right away. I suggest you try it for sure.

Boho brunch vibes in a classy, instagram worthy restaurant at LOV. LOV has been on my list for many years & I finally got a chance to go! It definitely lived up to its hype, the quality of the vegan food is amazing. Everything tasted super fresh & delicious. We ordered the chick n waffle (fried oyster mushroom) which was so good you aren't going to miss chicken (we aren't vegan ! ). The tofu Benedict was a favourite for the family, it surprised us & was delicious. The granola bowl is a great option should you not be in the mood for a heavy savoury breakfast either. The golden milk is a warm, cozy, & immune boosting drink that'll be great on a cold winter & fall morning! The mango tango is a good smoothie , that's not too sweet. Thank you for the kind lady for serving my family & I. Although the kitchen had some issues with getting our order, our server made it up to us kindly. Thank you! I recommend reservations via OpenTable.

Vegan food was good but nothing special for the price. Would’ve given 3 or 4 stars but the service wasn’t good. They could’ve asked if I wanted another drink or refill my bottle of water. Also they don’t take Amex
