LOV is widely regarded as a beautiful and stylish destination in Montreal, offering an elegant atmosphere that many guests find perfect for dates, special occasions, or casual gatherings. Visitors consistently praise the creative, flavorful, and beautifully presented plant-based cuisine, with standout items like the carbonara, risotto, arancini, and various mocktails frequently earning high marks. While many patrons highlight the kind, attentive, and professional nature of the staff, experiences with service speed and consistency can be mixed, ranging from efficient and welcoming to occasionally slow or disorganized.

I have been to this location a few times & they never cease to amaze me, as they update their menu regularly. I love the design of the restaurant, combination of modern & contemporary decorations which makes it suitable for dates, friends & also business gatherings. So far, I have tried their Salmon Tartare, Lasagna, LOV Bagel & burgers & all have been very delicious & perfectly served. The staff are also friendly & helpful which positively contributes to the great atmosphere.

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.

Super nice restaurant for brunch or breakfast! They serve very tasty sweet &/or salty dishes (plus they have vegan & gluten-free options). The beverages are also good & have lactose-free options. Service is good & quick. Definitely coming back!

Had vegan brunch at Lov. The decor is super zen & very welcoming. Had the tofu benny which was delish. Portions were very generous. Service was excellent. Highly recommend!

Incredible atmosphere & absolutely awesome service! Really had a fun time. The "salmon" tartare is a must have, as well as the truffle burger. Unfortunately, the risotto fell a bit flat since it was a bit too salty...but overall a very good experience!

High quality vegan food, delicious & served by professional & friendly staff. The atmosphere is beautiful, relaxing. This is our new favourite place in DiX30! Highly recommended. People who are not vegan also commented that they enjoyed the vegan & vegetarian dishes. Next level!

The espresso martini is phenomenal! Love that there is a vegetarian restaurant that has fun takes on meat classics (like a salmon tartare) but the kitchen was pretty slow on the day we visited. - Snails: never had meat snails before so it was interesting to taste the vegetarian ones. 3/5 - salmon tartare: the top part was really tasty & reminded me of the actual meat version, but the bottom portion is all guac. 4/5 - brussel sprouts: not spicy & burnt 2/5 - dumplings: great taste, might be a bit too fried 4/5 - kimchi fries: solid choice! 4/5
