An exceptional dining experience from start to finish. Matteo, our server, delivered impeccable service, attentive, thoughtful, & genuinely warm throughout the evening. The cuisine was outstanding, each dish beautifully prepared & full of flavor. The ambiance strikes a perfect balance between chic & intimate, offering a serene setting where conversation flows effortlessly. A truly elegant experience.
We visited this beautiful restaurant in Old Port, Montreal on Saturday, March 28. We were welcomed by a kind & friendly young Italian who served us excellent cocktails. The food & service were both of a very high standard.
The only downside was the vibe, which felt a bit dull - the music lacked a clear identity, shifting from 70s Italian tracks to rather unengaging songs.
I hope to return & find a different atmosphere next time.
Great raw bar, fresh fresh seafoods.
My fav pastas are the tagliolini & the cappeletti. The tagliolini looks like it would be very creamy maybe even too much... but no. It is perfectly creamy & cheesy. The plate was licked clean it was not too heavy whatsoever, very amazing that they pulled this off the way they did. Cappeletti sauce also maybe sound heav, but it is not. It is bursting with flavour & is addicting. Plate was also licked clean.
The servers offered some chili oil, which was an epic pairing with the cappeletti!! The chili oil is very delicious. Somehow a bit sweet & spicy, realllly loved it so much.
The squid ink ravioli toppings are sooo good but found the texture of that pasta to be a miss for me.
Another killer is the vanilla ice cream, its not on the menu, but ask for it because (coming from a person whos fav food is ice cream & has it everywhere i find it) it is some of the best i have ever had, creamy & icy, luscious & addicting vanilla flavour. Perfectly sweetened. I will miss it forever when i leave Montreal
Une expérience exceptionnelle du début à la fin.
Ce restaurant haut de gamme se distingue par une cuisine absolument délicieuse, raffinée & parfaitement exécutée. Chaque plat est un vrai plaisir pour les sens.
Le décor est tout simplement incroyable : élégant, chic & soigneusement pensé, il crée une ambiance à la fois chaleureuse & sophistiquée.
Le service est impeccable, attentif sans être intrusif, avec un souci du détail qui fait toute la différence.
Je recommande cet endroit à 100 % pour une expérience gastronomique mémorable. J'ai déjà hâte d'y retourner !
10/10!! We went on NYE & it was an Amazing experience!! Jerome was our waiter & the service was impeccable from beginning to end & the food was to die for. I'm still thinking about it! Mare is my new favourite spot!
The food was'okay' nothing outstanding. Portions were tiny & comes with a heavy price tag for what you get. The service was excellent though. 👌🏽 unfortunately, the service alone won't get me to go back. We enjoyed the chill vibe. Music was loud enough to enjoy it, but not so loud that we couldn't hear each other. Less of a party vibe & more fine dining atmosphere; we quite enjoyed that. I spent 140$ for 1 person (no alcohol) & I left hungry & was underwhelmed.
Avons mangé à cet établissement le 21 février.
Bel endroit avec beau décor.
Le jeune homme italien qui prépare cocktails, 🍸 ne parle pas français.
Service très lent & désorganisé.
Huîtres 🦪 Rockfeller servies tièdes & sans saveur.
Crevettes 🍤 servies tièdes avec un goût d'ammoniaque.
Daurade est bonne.
Devons nous servir nous-mêmes le vin.
On nous fait une courtoisie en nous apportant une facture salée: on nous offre deux cocktails & deux cafés.
Avions mangé la veille chez Dorsia où tout était impeccable. Décor, service, plats, clientèle. Dignes d'une étoile Michelin.
Absolutely loved our experience at Mare in Old Montreal. The food was incredible, every dish beautifully presented & full of flavor. You can truly taste the quality & attention to detail in every bite. The service was top notch! Everything from the atmosphere to the cuisine & hospitality was amazing. A must-visit in Old Montreal ✨
I had the most incredible dining experience for Valentine's Day at Mare in Old Port. From the moment we stepped in, the coastal Italian charm was undeniable. They began by serving us bread-focaccia & sourdough-accompanied by a mascarpone & cod spread, which was exquisite. We also had two amazing mocktails-proof that even their non-alcoholic options are outstanding. We started with oysters-plump, meaty, bursting with fresh flavor, straight from PEI. For the appetizers, I had a vibrant beef tartare with an amazing chew, while my girlfriend savored the octopus, paired with crispy potato & escarole-every bite was fresh & balanced. For the mains, we shared two pasta delights: I had the cappelletti, filled with braised beef slow-cooked for hours, bathed in a rich sugo d'arrosto, & my girlfriend had the tagliolini, a silky pasta with Parmigiano, cultured butter, & caviar-pure bliss. We finished with a tiramisu that was divine & another dessert, the cioccolata pralinata-light, elevated, with a perfect crunch & subtle sweetness, the ideal end to a grand meal. & to top it off, I had an excellent double espresso. I must say, as good as the food was, the service was flawless-every staff member was so attentive, warm, & made us feel truly special. Mare is a must-visit-go treat yourself!
