About

Montreal Paella focuses on the preparation of traditional Spanish rice dishes and an extensive selection of small plates. The menu centers on large-format pans featuring saffron-infused bomba rice combined with proteins like chorizo, shrimp, mussels, and chicken. Patrons encounter a setting dedicated to shared culinary experiences where tapas highlight regional ingredients such as piquillo peppers, manchego cheese, and marinated olives. The kitchen utilizes authentic techniques to achieve the signature caramelized socarrat crust on the base of every paella pan. Each dish emphasizes the bold, rustic flavor profiles characteristic of Iberian cooking traditions. The interior provides an environment suited for communal consumption of these classic Mediterranean offerings while maintaining a focus on consistent execution of standard regional recipes. This establishment prioritizes the technical accuracy of its rice preparations and the variety of its small-plate offerings for all diners.

I had an amazing experience at this restaurant! I ordered the seafood paella - it was absolutely delicious. The rice was perfectly cooked & full of flavor, & I enjoyed every last bite. My wife had the seafood soup, which was served in a cast iron pot that kept it warm throughout the meal. It was also incredibly tasty. We were only in Montreal for two days, & I truly regret not coming back for a second visit. Highly recommended!

No other restaurant compares to the quality & the flavor you will find at Montréal Paella. My wife & I first visited this restaurant on a random date night, & we were so enchanted by the experience that we kept coming back time & time again. Our favorite restaurant, with our favorite chefs making our favorite food--authentically from Valencia.

Great little spot for a good paella. Nice apps, friendly service. Paella was rich in flavorful with multiple different options from seafood to meat to vegetarian. Cod balls were excellent & the cucumber lemonade cocktail was very well balanced & not overly sweet. Nice selection of cocktails & wines. Overall nice experience, worth a visit.

Absolutely love this place! The food is consistently amazing-everything I've tried has been full of flavor, fresh, & clearly made with care. The service is just as impressive; the staff is always friendly, attentive, & genuinely welcoming. I have to give a special shoutout to their crocette-they are next-level delicious. I'm completely obsessed & have probably ordered them at least 20 times by now. If you're looking for authentic, high-quality paella & unforgettable small bites, this spot is a must-visit. Highly recommended!

How can you resist the delicious taste of 36-month Spanish ham with juicy tomato bread?

The paella valencian is delicious. The rice below fully absorbs the essence of the gravy .Make me ate a lot of rice.

I want to try it again after trying it once!

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.

It was the best paella that I ever had. Good services, reasonable price. There are dining in & taking out.
Please come to try if you are in Montreal. Especially for gluten-free options.
