Al Rayan Poissonnerie & Restaurant offers casual dining with a Middle Eastern feeling. Enjoy a deliciously fresh meal; nothing at our restaurant is pre-made.

A wide selection of Shrimps, calamari, whole fish or shellfish are offered by the kilo, and you only need to decide how you would like them prepared: grilled, sautéed, or fried.

Review Summary

Reviews portray Poissonnerie Rayan as a standout for fresh seafood in Montreal, with praise for the variety and quality of items such as calamari, swordfish, octopus and shrimp, and for the option to select seafood from a display and have it prepared on the spot in a market style. Several notes mention that sides are not included and must be ordered separately, and that prices can be high with some reviews noting a lack of upfront price display. Service is often described as friendly and attentive, with many praising the staff's hospitality and knowledge, though a few readers report rushed checkout or inconsistent service. Many reviewers value the freshness, the ability to taste a wide range of seafood, and the overall atmosphere, comparing it to a seaside or Mediterranean setting. Some comments mention price increases and urge clearer menus and better price transparency at the start, while others feel the quality justifies the cost. Overall the place is described as a beloved go to for seafood lovers, with generous portions and strong loyalty, though a few reviews warn to check the bill carefully before paying.

Voilà un resto qui est un...secret bien gardé, presqu'un bijou!

La nourriture (poisons que vous commandez vous-même en arrière au comptoir), la salade, les frites maison, le riz, tout était d'une fraicheur inimaginable! Le service avec le sourire, toujours, bien organisé, les prix sont incroyablement bons! Nous allons surement devenir des réguliers!

J'adore le concept où on choisit son poisson & ses fruits de mer ainsi que le mode de cuisson. Le résultat est délicieux, le tout est tellement frais...à un prix très abordable. 4 grosses & délicieuses pétoncles, les calmars sont tellement tendres!! Par contre, il ne faut pas espérer une ambiance romantique...c'est assez bruyant & la musique est forte, mais quand on s'y attend, pas de problème! :) Je sens que je vais devenir une habituée....!
