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!

One of the best dining experiences I've had in a long time. The tagine was incredibly tender & flavorful, & the mint tea was the perfect way to end the meal. Beautiful presentation & great service. Highly recommended.

Was a wednesday night so the service was immediate. The pacing of the food was great. Soon as fork hit the table, the next dish came out.

I had the chef salad which was exactly to my liking. Spinach with walnuts, cranberrys, & mushrooms. It was as if an AI was used to steal my recepies. 😁

I was a bit hesitant with the lamb tajine, but it was good. The flavors were fairly mild but it allowed the various ingredients to speak for themselves.

All in all I had a great experience.
