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!

If you're looking for a warm, authentic taste of North African cuisine in a cozy & inviting atmosphere, Menthe & Couscous is an absolute gem. From the moment you walk in, the aroma of fresh spices & slow-cooked dishes sets the tone for a memorable dining experience.

The menu is rich with flavor, & every dish feels thoughtfully prepared. The couscous is incredibly light & fluffy, perfectly paired with tender vegetables & savory meats. The tajines are a standout - slow-cooked to perfection, with deep flavors that reflect true Moroccan tradition. Portions are generous & beautifully presented.

The service is just as impressive as the food. The staff are friendly, attentive, & always eager to offer recommendations. Whether you're familiar with Moroccan cuisine or trying it for the first time, they make you feel welcome & comfortable.

The restaurant's ambiance adds to the charm - warm lighting, elegant decor, & the subtle sound of Moroccan music make the experience feel like a getaway.

Overall, Menthe & Couscous is a must-visit for anyone who appreciates fresh ingredients, authentic Mediterranean & Moroccan flavors, & a relaxed, welcoming dining experience. Highly recommended - you'll leave satisfied & already planning your next visit.

Excellent food. Their recipe is unconventional & not typical, they took the Mediterranean concept & revisited it to give it more taste. Excellent plates & huge portions. Eclectic decor & warm ambiance with nice diversified music.
I loved their couscous royal & I tried the lamb tajine from my friend & they were both amazing. I highly recommend them.
