Located in Montreal's west end, Lucille's Oyster Dive has been serving up oysters and seafood classics since 2009.
The goal is to provide patrons with the best selection of both east and west coast oysters. According to seasonal availability, the oyster selection changes daily. While the classics include lobster rolls and fish & chips, the Lucille's kitchen changes it up with seafood dishes that keep our patrons coming back.
Whether you're looking for a quick bite at the bar, or an evening with friends, the staff has a reputation of making it all seem like home.
While the menu changes seasonally, the Lucille's 1855 Butcher's Cut are a year round staple. The in-house, dry aged and charcoal grilled steaks have made this Dive a destination for beef enthusiasts.

Food is great - I often visit for special occasions. I personally recommend the rib-steak with sweet potato fries. Service is lacking - sometimes it's great other times you can tell the staff are overworked. Overall - Expensive, but thankfully the food is good so I'm content paying a premium price.
Had an absolutely lovely time. Food was great, highly recommend the fried chicken & crab dip! Staff was so nice with very fast service. Ask for Devon, he's the greatest.
Good seafood, ambiance, service. Food is nicely presented & drinks are made to liking. I knly wish they had a wider wine selection. Very friendly staff at the bar, great & efficient service. Make sure to get a reservation first, very busy, even on week nights.
Lobster was not 1.5 lb as I was told but tasted great. The fried squid disappointed for a seafood restaurant l, chewy frozen ringlets. A Lobster roll with a hot dog bun was totally amateur. The ribs weren't fall off the bone, not smoked, no grill marks, no rub, just covered in BBQ sauce. The ambiance was nice but tables are really too close. Service was excellent but cheesy with overly sexy uniforms on young staff for this type of establishment & clientele demographic.
It can get quite noisy due to the large number of customers, & the staffs are a little bit busy. However, the food is delicious. I wouldn't particularly recommend the rib barbecue, but the fried chicken & lobster , steak are all tasty!
I am very glad to know that the Filet Mignon was again perfect, & the $1.00 oysters are great.
Both are which I raved about so much that 2 friends joined this time & we all had the exact same.

We have always been big fans of Lucille's but the food this time was not as good. The fries with my lobster roll tasted like frozen. They used to be so good. & the lobster roll was not as full as before & not as tasty.
the portion of the food is very small comparing to the price! I just recommend the oyster , to be honest other foods doesn't worth it! we get the fried calamari & crab salad , super small portion!!
We enjoyed the evening very much. Tables are close together & the restaurant is loud....made it hard for conversation because I felt like I needed to shout to be heard but also didn't want to disturb the tables next to me. I would recommend outdoor seating or bar seating. Waitress was very friendly & the food came quickly (maybe a bit too quickly).
The food was excellent. We both enjoyed our meal, oysters & fish tacos to start, octopus salad & grilled calamari for mains. The staff was helpful & friendly.
I heard great things about this restaurant, & decided to come give it a visit during my first visit to Montreal.
We got seated right away, because we had reservations, however we did end up waiting for awhile to get our order taken, but staff were very friendly & welcoming.
We both ordered half a dozen of the premium oysters & their dollar oyster special. Oysters were sweet & tasted amazing!
We also ordered the lobster roll, fish & chips, & for dessert the chocolate mousse.
First time eating a lobster roll, & I was very impressed & pleased with how it came. The bread was buttery & soft, a good portion of lobster & the mayo just tied it all together beautifully.
Fish & chips were decent, but personally I found that there was too much batter, that I got tired of eating half way through one piece. Fries were mediocre. I wouldn't recommend it.
For dessert we had the chocolate mousse which tasted amazing & was the perfect dessert to end the meal.
The atmosphere & vibe is dark & busy, but it was an amazing experience & I would definitely come back for their lobster roll!
