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.

100% recommandé... un vrai délice... 🤩 Meilleurs fruits de mer en ville, délicieusement préparés ! 🍤🦞🐙

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!!!

It was just wonderful! Everything was exactly as I wished. Well… except for the bill 😅 I've never eaten anything that tasty in Montreal so far. It seems I ate a lot & completely underestimated the cost - the final bill was double what I expected 🫣 But we brought some food home, so that helps.
The place is also Muslim-friendly 😊
Thanks for the service!

The service is poor!!!! The staff is unfriendly! If you like customer service when you spend $140 for two adults & one minor go somewhere else.

Très bon restaurant de poisson & fruits de mer, le meilleur en ville. Un restaurant égyptien comme j'ai pu les fréquenter sur les.bords du Nil quand j'habitais au Caire.
À expérimenter sans modération!
