Review Summary

Poissonnerie Rayan is widely regarded as a top-tier destination in Montreal for fresh seafood, offering an authentic market-style experience where diners select their fish and preferred cooking method directly from the display. Many patrons praise the delicious, flavorful preparation of dishes like calamari, shrimp, grilled fish, and potato wedges, often comparing the welcoming atmosphere and traditional flavors to dining along the Nile or the Mediterranean. While the service is frequently described as friendly and professional, opinions on pricing are mixed, with some customers noting the lack of a formal menu and clear upfront pricing as a point of frustration. Despite some concerns regarding billing transparency and the high cost of certain items, many loyal visitors continue to return for the consistent quality and the genuine, hospitable environment provided by the staff.

The seafood is as fresh as it gets. Delicious. I'm coming back.

Food tastes good but overpriced. Per piece lobster was $22. Tip was kind of mandatory for them. At the kitchen, the main chef in fish section didn't allow us time to choose fish & he was rushing which disappointed us.

C'est vrai que la nourriture & la cuisine est plutôt bonne mais le service n'est pas terrible & le prix est excessivement chère. Plus de 90$ pour un poisson grillé, un peu de pieuvre, quelques crevettes, une assiette de patate & une canette de canada dry !

La salade, les calmars, les plats de poissons frais, le homard, les crevettes grillées. 🥗🦑🐟

Gros coup de coeur... une découverte... les cuisiniers & l'équipe sont vraiment gentils & souriants. 🥰👨?🍳👩?🍳

Service vraiment décevant. Les serveurs ne sont pas souriants & le service est mauvais du début à la fin. Le monsieur au comptoir des poissons est agressif & manque totalement de respect. Quand on a simplement demandé si certaines portions pouvaient être grillées au lieu d'être frites, il a répondu sèchement : « C'est moi qui décide ».

Au moment du paiement, il nous a donné seulement le reçu. J'ai dû demander la facture, & là ils ont commencé à taper & retaper dans le système pour finalement la sortir. Honnêtement, ça donne l'impression que la commande n'avait même pas été déclarée avant que je demande la facture. Je trouve ça inacceptable de charger les taxes aux clients sans être transparent de leur côté.

En plus, pour le service reçu, les prix sont beaucoup trop chers. Payer autant pour une expérience aussi misérable, ça ne vaut absolument pas la peine. Je ne recommande pas du tout, 0%.

I had an outstanding experience at Poissonnerie Rayan. The freshness of the fish is undeniable, & being able to personally select exactly what you want from the display makes the whole experience feel authentic & reassuring. We tried the dorade & calamari, & everything was incredibly delicious, perfectly cooked, & full of flavor. I also appreciated that there's a convenient option to order to go without compromising on quality. The cozy, welcoming environment makes it a great spot to relax & enjoy top-notch seafood. Highly recommended!!!
