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.
Menthe et Couscous consistently earns praise for authentic North African comfort with generous portions of light and fluffy couscous royal, tender lamb tagine, and homemade merguez, all delivered in a warm, cozy atmosphere with attentive service; reviews also highlight the lively experiences from belly dancing and live music to a pleasant terrace, and the restaurant's BYOB policy and reasonable prices add to the appeal for both intimate dinners and group evenings.
Une première visite l'été passé & une seconde visite en fin d'année : la constance est là ; le service est toujours impeccable & attentionné (sans être trop présent), & les plats sont raffinés & absolument WOW. Oui c'est cher, mais la qualité est là

This is one of those restaurants the more the merrier. It's a great place to share. The dishes are excellent & perfect to share. A taste is all that is needed. Tasting menus are available.
La cuisine est à la hauteur de la décoration, originale & excellente ! Le danger de trop s'adapter aux goûts occidentaux & ainsi de perdre les épices orientales est éviter... tant mieux...
Nous avons aimé tout de notre visite, une expérience globale de goût, d'odeur & pour les yeux; un service professionnel, courtois & attentionné. Pour les amateurs d'agneau, le menu est complet, & vous ne regretterez aucun choix. Une autre bonne raison de se fier.
Menthe & Couscous est un incontournable e montreal cuisine méditerranéenne raffinée un excellent service vous attend plaisir des yeux & du palais merci Menthe & Couscous
Our friends introduced us to this restaurant a couple of years ago & have returned for the 3rd time. The food is fantastic, very flavorful & varied. Ambiance is good, service is also good. The price is slightly higher than average but well worth the treat. I do recommend you try it.

We tried the group royal menu, which is made up of their best dishes. It was one of the best meals that we have ever eaten. The lamb shank tajine was our favourite. It's a little expensive, but there is lots of food & we took home enough to have lunch the next day. Service was attentive & friendly. Highly recommend to anyone visiting Montreal!
Menthe & Couscous has an excellent menu for those diners who enjoy a combination of flavours. The atmosphere is confident: the staff moves intentionally & quickly, without being hurried. The restaurant is full without feeling too busy. There are tons of people there & it's not too loud to have a good conversation. It's the kind of place where the waiter is inspired to try making some of the dishes at home in their spare time. The best part is that for guests who have food restrictions, from allergies to dietary requirements, the rotating series of staff who deliver each dish verbally articulate & affirm the allergen-free dish they are serving, which means the patron doesn't have to engage in a guessing game. We had a wonderful time & would strongly recommend Menthe & Couscous to anyone!
Absolutely must try place!! Everything is just perfect, it's hard to say this about a restaurant but this place blew my brains. You will find absolute perfection here. The service was excellent, almost every staff who pass by you check if you need anything. You see everyone take care of every table. The food was amazing & you can taste every ingredient in your meal, food takes a while to come but it's an absolute bliss. Great if you're looking for fine dinning & must make a reservation 2-3 weeks before because this place is booked all the time. Thanks Damas, will definitely be back

I was blown away, from the atmosphere, decor to the explosion of flavours. We had the M & C salad which can be only described as bliss, the seafood tajine with shrimps, octopus, calmar & mussels (the most tender octopus I ever had) & the lamb shank tajine(mouth watering).
Reservations are a must! It would be wise to book at least 2 weeks in advance to make sure you get the time slots you desire. Walkings are welcomed but you really need to be lucky or show up late otherwise. If you are a group try the group royal tasting menu, it might be the best deal to get the most out of the experience.
What a magical place! From the decor to the ingredients, everything is orchestrated to create a unique experience. The service is impeccable; probably one of the finest in Montreal.
Came here twice & I would say their appetizers are delicious. The first time we went we got the Brik & méchouia. Loved it all! The second time we got the lamb tajine, the couscous paella & kunafa as a dessert. We would go here again for more plates to try.
