Montreal Paella

Absolutely love this place. I've been here more than once & it's always worth it in my opinion. The chicken paella is my absolute favorite - the flavor is so good & I genuinely love every ingredient in it.

I also really appreciate how easy it is to navigate the menu with a gluten intolerance, since the gluten-free items are clearly marked. Everything I've tried here has been delicious, including the rice pudding & bravas!

The staff are always super friendly & go above & beyond. On my last visit, our server recommended a glass of white wine that paired perfectly with my paella, which I really appreciated. Definitely one of the places I recommend when people want really good Spanish food in Montreal. Will absolutely be back.

There are many dining options in Montreal. Do yourself a favor & make the right choice & make a reservation at this place.

The chick pea & pork confit stew might make you reexamine your life. I'll be chasing that high for the rest of my life. You might question whether you deserve it or not. The chef assured me that I do indeed deserve it.

Good wine selection. Mushroom & chicken paella was top notch.

I ate most of the appetizers before I took a picture, which I think speaks to their quality.

I had the mixta paella & I requested for there to be a little kick of spice. From the first bite I was transported a world away. The rice really soaked in the flavour & each mouthful had a little chicken or seafood with it. You can tell that they love what they do in that kitchen!!!!

The ambiance & service was excellent. We started with fried calamari which was fried in a white bread coating which was very good but lacked quantity for the price. My wife had the seafood with monk fish paella & I had the traditional Valencian paella with chicken & rabbit. However, one chicken leg & a very small piece of rabbit mostly bone was very disappointing. You expected the taste of the chicken & especially rabbit to have some flavor in the rice as it should because it was cooked in it but there wasn't. The dish looked empty. The same with my wife's dish. A couple a small shrimps, a few mussels & calamari & the monk fish, three miniscule pieces. It lacked the taste of the seafood.
Both paellas lacked the main ingredients of what what you ordered: seafood, chicken & rabbit. For this reason I will not go back or recommend.

Very delicious food. Chicken croquettes were delicious, however Jamon Iberico ones were not as good. Chicken paella was also very good, full of flavour. Prices are reasonable.

The seafoot paella was tasty & good but the chicken & mushroom paella was salty & dry. Besides that, service was good & reasonably fast. Have to consider that the food has to be prepared & baked. Watch out for the steel handles for the paella, extremely hot.

We were okay with 40min waiting time which is reasonable for freshly cooked food but they took the wrong order. the black rice one was delicious but the chicken seem to be not the freshest my two friends both who ordered it has stomach issue after.

I travel to Montreal frequently & had been trying to coordinate a visit since I found out about Montreal Paella. Yesterday I got the opportunity to visit & it did not disappoint. I was greeted immediately after walking in. My order was taken quickly by a wonderful young lady from Zaragoza & with whom I had a wonderful short chat about Spain. I ordered patatas bravas, paella Valenciana with chicken & rabbit & a glass of sangria. Everything was delicious. I will definitely be back to try some more of the menu items.

Recently dined at Montreal Paella & it was a paella lover's dream. The paella was a flavor explosion with perfectly cooked rice & a delightful mix of seafood & chicken. (I had the Mixta paella) But let's talk about those croquetas-crispy on the outside, creamy on the inside, & so addictive I couldn't stop eating. The service was top-notch, & the authentic vibe made it a standout experience. If you're into paella, this place is a must-visit. I practically rolled out, happily stuffed.

I cannot eat Paella anywhere else. We visit Montreal at least once or twice a year & this is our non-negotiable. We always order the Tomato bread, Garlic Shrimp & usually the Chicken & Mushroom Paella. All of the paellas are delicious, we just love mushrooms. The service is the best! We can’t wait to come back:)
