About

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! It's with consideration to its customers, which they view as being their guests, that Menthe & Couscous manages to delight its patrons' senses with its food and atmosphere.

I visited this restaurant after hearing so many great things about it, & honestly, it exceeded my expectations! I actually came all the way from Ottawa, & it was absolutely worth the trip. 👏

The food was incredibly authentic & delicious. The flavors were rich & perfectly balanced. The couscous was light & flavorful, & the tagine was simply amazing full of depth & traditional Moroccan taste. 😍

The service was excellent, & the staff were very warm & welcoming. The atmosphere felt cozy & inviting, almost like dining in a traditional Moroccan home.

I highly recommend this place to anyone in Montreal or even visiting from another city. It truly deserves five stars, & I will definitely be coming back again! 🌟

Thank you for the wonderful experience & beautiful hospitality. 🤍

Went here & got the soup, chicken tajine, couscous, mint lemonade, & mint tea. Everything was amazing, especially the soup (I could have had five bowls of just that). The staff was also super friendly. 10/10 recommend.
