Review Summary

Maestro S.V.P is widely praised for its seafood focus, especially oysters, with reviewers calling the oyster selection among the best in Montreal and noting flavors from shrimp and octopus to lobster dishes and lobster mac and cheese. The atmosphere is described as lively, warm, and intimate, with friendly, attentive service and the owner often cited as a welcoming, knowledgeable presence who enhances the experience. Several diners highlight creative touches like octopus with maple citrus and ceviche, and the tapas style offerings that invite trying a variety of dishes. While most feedback is glowing, a few readers mention high prices and occasional delays or a tipping policy that felt forced, and some note that the owner is retiring soon, encouraging visits before the closure. Taken together, the reviews portray Maestro S.V.P as a standout, unique seafood spot with generous portions, a memorable personal touch, and strong recommendations for oyster lovers and those seeking a vibrant Montreal dining experience, albeit at a premium.

What an amazing spot for nice drinks, good conversations & great food. The seafood focused menu is just a delight to try out. The owner is very helpful with suggestions & very knowledgeable on the oyster variety as well. Cocktails are spot on! A great experience.

Highly recommend visiting this spot!!!

We went for the MTL à Table with a 3 course meal for 50$ each & it was worth it. Total cost was 160$ with drinks & tips. Stay alert for the Table d'hôte for 40$, the maple octopus & cajun seafood boil was delicious! Strongly recommended. Staff was nice & service was good!

What a great find! We searched online for a place for dinner & are glad we came. The oysters were magnifique & the drinks were cheap. We recommend the shrimp piri-piri & the clam chowder. Friendly staff & great prices.

I always assumed because of the decor & location that everything was going to be VERY expensive. Wrong. We initially saw the 1.50$ oysters & planned to get a dozen + a drink & leave however the man in charge, Enrique, was super attentive, helpful, & charming right from the get go & we ended up staying for hours trying wines & getting items from their tapas menu. Great ambience, some light music but not too loud you could easier talk, nice decor. Extremely reasonable prices & quality food as well. Whether you're a group of college kids looking for a place to get a drink & some inexpensive plates to share or a couple looking for something a little fancier, they have it. I can't believe I walked by this place so many times & never came in. Great experience. Enrique & Maestro's chef even asked our opinions on new items they were adding to the menu that they had us try. We're planning on getting a group of friends together to try everything on the tapas menu, get some of the higher end dishes, get some of their pricier oysters (mmmm) &... maybe also exhaust their wine list!
