About us

Menthe & Couscous: A restaurant with a warm decor & atmosphere in Montreal! Menthe & Couscous offers gourmet cuisine from North Africa, traditional Tunisian & Moroccan dishes in particular, where authentic culinary customs are applied. Specialties consist of lamb, chicken, merguez sausage or royal couscous's, finely spiced, letting the taste of vegetables and the delicious flavor of semolina virgin olive oil stand out. Grills are also part of the restaurant's menu where you will discover authentic and delicious dishes made with fresh & high quality produces. You will have the occasion to discover Tunisian salads that are rich in color & flavor. They are fresh & perfumed, perfect for the Summer, but can be savored any time of the year. The brick is an essential classic of North African cooking. We prepare it as a hot appetizer for a feast or as a light meal. Infinite versions exist for this typical dish. Fresh mint is almost omnipresent in North Africa. Nothing beats mint tea to transport you to Maghreb. Your taste buds and nostrils will be delighted with its intoxicating perfume, while the sound of the pouring liquid charms your hearing. The movement of this shimmering amber syrup, for your viewing pleasure, completes this journey of the senses... Mint tea symbolizes friendliness, relaxation and hospitality, any time of the day! Mint tea is served with a fine Tunisian pastry which is a symphony of textures, colors & flavors. They are made with healthy & natural products which complement and combine your desires and the delightful moments in life. Come to an enchanting setting for a romantic dinner, a night out with friends, family, or at our dinner shows!

Review Summary

Menthe et Couscous offers a warm, inviting atmosphere with authentic North African flavors and generous portions. Dishes like the lamb shank tagine and couscous royal are repeatedly described as tender, deeply flavorful and beautifully prepared, with homemade merguez and perfectly steamed couscous. The ambiance blends coziness with lively entertainment, including belly dancing and occasional live violin, which enhances the dinner without detracting from the food. Service is consistently friendly, attentive, and professional, making guests feel welcome from start to finish. With a BYOB option, generous portions, and a reputation for fresh ingredients and comforting, home style cooking, Menthe et Couscous stands out as a great choice for a relaxed dinner, a celebratory night, or a memorable group meal.

This is one of the best dining experiences in Montreal for us. Excellent food cooked as if it is cooked at home (home style cooking) with real ingredients & tasty lamb. Lovely people working there. Amazing ambiance & entertaining bellydance show. Highly recommended when visiting Montreal

Une des meilleures tables de la région ! Cuisine créative & très recherchée. Très bonne maîtrise des cuissons par le chef. Un vrai délice pour les papilles! Superbes accords mets/vins. Le service est digne d'un 5 étoiles, sympathique & aucunement guindé. À recommander fortement sans aucune hésitation ! :)

Nous avons essayé pour la première fois hier & nous avons été charmés par l'accueil , le service & surtout pour la cuisine !!! Des plats succulents avec un souci du détail mais également le désir de partager les saveurs méditerranéennes. Nous avons essayé a peu près tous les restaurants de Montréal & Menthe & Couscous est certainement notre coup de coeur ! Nous y reviendrons certainement & nous vous le recommandons!!!

Nous y étions en famille (tous des adultes) hier soir & nous avons BEAUCOUP apprécié le menu, le service & l'ambiance. Je recommande ! Nous avons pris des entrées à partager puis des plats principaux, l'agneau les merguez les brochettes les tajines fruits de mer & celle de poulets. Le tout accompagné de bières & d'une coupe du vin blanc du moment tout était excellent. 'Pour conclure, l'équipe de Menthe & Couscous ont su compléter cette sortie. Quand les enfants ont grandi il est plaisant de les retrouver les week-end quand ils passent en visite. Alors une bonne bouffe permet de vraiment bien profiter''de la visite'' !'
