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.

I ordered just under 50 grams of shrimp, calamari that I could actually chew, & octopus. For this, I ended up paying $75 for frozen seafood.

If you are seafoods lovers this is a place you must come. Here you need to come & select your fish & ask them how to prepare it!!! Such a nice experience!!

We had potato wedges; definitely one of the best potato wedges I have ever had.

Grilled octopus was fabulous; the preparation was completely unique; probably the best grilled octopus I have ever had in my life. But you need to eat it when it's hot; the more cold it becomes it will lose the taste.

Then comes to fried red snapper; it was delicious as well.

Overall it was an amazing experience; very friendly customer service.

However keep it in mind; it's really expensive place as well; so it's not somewhere you can go a lot even if you want.

Favorite seafood restaurant ever. Food is always fresh & the place very clean. They offer a large variety of seafood products. Even if the place is often crowded, the dining room is so large & the staff so efficient, I never had to wait to long. I always take the octopus, tiger shrimp, calamari, potatoes & salad 👌👌👌

All the food was wonderful. We had the calamari, rice pilaf, fried basa & the sauteed shrimp in garlic sauce. The grilled octopus was excellent-- tender but with a nice smoky taste. However...make sure you have loads of cash with you.
