Al Rayan Poissonnerie & Restaurant offers casual dining with a Middle Eastern feeling. Enjoy a deliciously fresh meal; nothing at our restaurant is pre-made. Enjoy our friendly service while chefs prepare the fresh seafood you select from the wide selection of fresh fish and shellfish lining the bar. The service is prompt and convivial. Head to the seafood bar to handpick your dinner. 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. There are several gourmet sauces to choose from, as well as traditional ones like tahini and baba ghanoush.

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.

Le restaurant offre un bon service, j'ai rien à dire. Il sont serviable, poli & rapide. La bouffe ne m'a pas épaté. J'ai trouvé qu'il manquait un peu de saveurs. Sinon, j'ai trouvé que c'est dispendieux. Ce qu'on a pris ne valait pas son prix honnêtement.

I would say the food is ok but a little expensive. The behaviour from the servers were very good. But the guy from whom we chose the fish & weights he was very rude & intimidating. He was kind of rushing us & forcing us to buy some items. & was not giving us time to choose.

The calamaris were definitely old & very chewy wouldn't recommend. I ordered a fish I thought I was ordering fried fillet of fish but they just fried the entire fish I choose there was no seasoning whatsoever. I took the tiger shrimps in butter once again lack of flavor very low on salt. Overall very disappointing I used to like this restaurant.

Way over-priced. At first it seemed like a restaurant & I was waiting for a menu until I was told to go to the back & make my selection from seeing what was exhibited. I chose the seafood, some vegetables & some potatoes for two people: $104.00. With tap water only to drink. There were no prices posted anywhere. Paper table cloths. Good seafood but exorbitant price.
