The day we arrived in Montreal , we discovered this restaurant on our walk back to our hotel. We made a reservation for dinner later that evening. The dinning room is very serene.We shared several dishes, amazing stuffed grape leaves, bright salad with thinly shaved fennel & lamb chops. The whiskey sour does not disappoint. I think it was the best whiskey sour we had on our Montreal trip.There is a good selection of Greek wines as well.
We finished dinner with the Baklava Express drink & the tarte costrade. It was delicious dinner for our first night in Montreal.
I think service rating could be better if there was more enthusiasm from the servers regarding the dishes & what they are especially when there are no photos to show what these interesting dishes could be.
If opting out of imagery on the menu is the vibe, it is understandable but ensure that the enthusiasm of the servers are there to better describe & sell the dish.
Aside from that, the food we ordered tasted phenomenal. Again, had the server let us know in advance that there would be a bit of a wait time between all the other things we ordered & our pastitsio… we would've reconsidered.
Again with the whole'tipping culture' & the peer-pressuring of wanting to tip the servers. We did not feel well served but we ended up tipping anyways for the minimal'service' we had.. the refill on water twice, the clearing of our plates was faster than the food arriving on our table.
On the way out, we used the bathrooms downstairs & on our way up, the aisles between tables were so narrow that we had to wait for another server to pause taking orders from her table (despite her seeing us waiting there before she started to take the order..) so we can pass. Servers completely lacking awareness of their environment & reading the room…she did see us come up the stairs yet instead of quickly letting us pass, she began to take the order & thus leading to a really awkward pause where she had to let us pass by & we got the death glare from the man who had to wait the 3 seconds before he would order his food.
It's 3 seconds. It's not the end of the world for you okay?
We didn't see the option of the evil eye candy that others had shared which was something I sort of looked forward to as the evil-eye theme is a personal interest.
We ordered: taramasalata dip with pita, lamb chops, spanakopita, calamari, stuffed vine leaves & the pastitsio (similar to a lasagna?) - the dip was freaking phenomenal.. which made up for the lack of enthusiasm.
Every bite at this restaurant feels like a journey through the Mediterranean coast, reimagined with elegance & passion. The marinated fish with crushed pistachios was beyond incredible - delicate, buttery, & infused with layers of nutty aroma & citrus that danced together beautifully. Their whisky sour deserves a special mention too - perfectly balanced between sour, smoky, & sweet, it's easily one of the best cocktails in the city.
The chicken was divine - juicy, tender, & full of flavor, with that smoky char that makes you close your eyes in satisfaction. The lamb chops were out of this world - unbelievably tender, melting in the mouth like a fine piece of cake, & seasoned with heavenly spices that fill the air before you even take a bite. The pide was flaky, golden, & wonderfully rich - the perfect comfort dish that ties the whole meal together.
& let's talk about the staff - warm, genuine, & truly passionate about what they serve. They make you feel like an old friend coming home for dinner. The cozy atmosphere & soft lighting make it a perfect spot for a date night - romantic, relaxed, & filled with the aromas of freshly grilled perfection.
Special thanks again to Chef Arash, the master planner behind this unforgettable menu. His care, creativity, & attention to detail are reflected in every dish. The team & the chef together create an experience that's not just a meal - it's a moment you'll remember long after you leave.
The restaurant was noticeably understaffed, which meant the workers were very busy & often distracted. The lamb chops were tough, as the connective tissue had not been removed properly. While the tzatziki was good, it was pricier than what we encountered at other Greek restaurants. On a positive note, the interior design of the place was pleasant.
Amazing food, the Pastitsio was out if the world. Highly recommend the lamb chops as well, Saganaki was also delicious.. just the prep time was a little longer but definitely worth the wait 👍
Ok let's do Greek… & we walked in. The restaurant is very welcoming, & congratulations your washrooms are super clean, that's important. We sat at the bar & enjoyed a Greek wine, the Kir-Yanni 2022, & it was lovely. The bartender was very skilled & it was nice watching him prepare cocktails. The owner came by & asked if we wanted the lights turned up somewhat as it was quite dim, but nice so we declined. We shared the eggplant with pita, a Greek salad with delicious creamy feta, the pieuvre & lamb chops. All was very satisfactory. A nice find, thank you!
Visiting MÁTI in Montreal for the first time was an incredible experience! From the moment we walked in, the ambiance set the tone for a fantastic evening. The restaurant has a warm, upscale vibe with beautiful decor that made it feel both inviting & sophisticated. Even though we arrived without a reservation (which I highly recommend making since it gets busy), the manager was incredibly accommodating & found us a table. We were so thankful for their kindness & flexibility! Our server, Emylina, was exceptional. She guided us through the menu, ensuring we had everything we needed & making the experience smooth & enjoyable. We opted for a family-style meal to share, & it was such a fun & satisfying way to try different dishes together. We started with an appetizer from the Dips Section, choosing the KOPANISTI-a mix of feta, roasted peppers, garlic, & chili. It was the perfect way to kick off the meal, with bold flavors that paired wonderfully with the fresh bread. For our second shared course, we picked a variety of options from the Hot Starters. The LAMB CHOPS were perfectly cooked, seasoned with parsley, lemon, & EVOO, & they melted in our mouths. The SAGANAKI was a standout for me, with the kefalograviera cheese drizzled in honey & flamed with ouzo-so rich & indulgent! We also loved the SPANAKOPITA, with its flaky phyllo pastry & flavorful spinach & feta filling. By the time our third course arrived, we were already impressed, but the WHOLE CORNISH HEN from the To Share selection took things to another level. It came with lemon potatoes & charred lemon, & everything was seasoned to perfection. The chicken was tender & juicy, & the potatoes had the perfect hint of citrus. By the end, we were absolutely full & didn't have room for dessert, but I'm already planning to try some on my next visit. The service, food, & atmosphere were all top-notch, making this one of the best dining experiences I've had in a while. If you're looking for a great Greek restaurant in Montreal, MÁTI should be at the top of your list!
Great new restaurant in Old Port! We ordered the fried calami, potatoes & lamb chops. All the dishes were great & service was amazing too. My only feedback is that the lamb portion was small for the price, so I wouldn't consider it a shareable plate. Otherwise 10/10!
