Les avis sur Poissonnerie Rayan mettent en avant la fraîcheur et la diversité des fruits de mer et poissons, avec un système où l’on choisit les produits dans le frigo et on les fait préparer selon sa cuisson, sans menu fixe et sans affichage clair des prix à l’avance et les paiements par carte ne sont pas acceptés, il faut prévoir du liquide; les plats sont souvent décrits comme délicieux et généreux, notamment calamars, crevettes, homard et poisson frais, et l’ambiance est chaleureuse et familiale avec une touche mediterraneenne ou egyptienne selon les tables, même si certains trouvent les tarifs élevés et pensent qu’il faut vérifier la facture et le poids des articles; le service est apprécié pour son accueil et sa rapidité par certains, mais d’autres signalent des passages pressés à la caisse, des incohérences de facturation et des cuissons moins réussies; l’endroit est souvent décrit comme propre et convivial, avec des options pour manger sur place ou emporter, et pour les amoureux des fruits de mer c’est une adresse fiable et savoureuse à Montréal, malgré des expériences variables et des prix parfois élevés.
As you walk in, they direct you to the back where you choose the fresh fish & seafood you want & tell them if you want it grilled or fried. Then you go sit down & wait for them to bring it to you. We were pleasantly surprised there was no fresh fish/seafood or fried smells in the dining area, the food was excellent, perfectly seasoned & grilled/fried. It's a little pricey but it is fresh fish & seafood cooked on demand. Would definitely go back!

I used to work in a seafood kitchen so my love i dear. I went for the fish & chips & the fish portion was horrible undercooked & also chewy. Bad portion as well. On top of this when I went to pickup for takeout they had a cash only which of course had an atm even though they had a debit machine. Charge me an extra 3$ to take out cash. Something they could have said on the phone. DO NOT RECOMMEND.
Rayan is a favourite of mine, I am a regular. It reminds me of being in Egypt where fresh fish has been caught. You pick your fish & let them know how you would like it prepared & seasoned. Our favourites the smelt, shrimps, potatoe wedges & salad. There is bound to be left overs. Portions are generous. The seasoning, textures & freshness are unbeatable.They have sustainable take boxes & paper bags. We were three women & could not eat it all. Served family style. The owner is a delightful Egyptian Canadian gentlemen. The staff, team are helpful. Service is great. The flavours, freshness of our seafood & fish dishes are delicious. I feel as if I am by a seaside restaurant in Alexandria or the Red Sea. With Egyptian music playing in the background. Fun as I would recognise the music!
They have no beer, wine, alcohol nor is it a BYOW.( just like in Egypt). They do have Egyptian soft drinks.
Its always full after 20h00. The diners come diverse backgrounds, just like the neighbourhood & it is just beautiful.
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.
The food is very good & fresh, but the service is strange, definitely not in a good way.
When you enter, they guide you to choose your seafood items from the fridge, & then in a matter of seconds(!), you are stuck with some big portions, to which you really didn't consent! You have no clear idea how much your food is going to cost or weigh.
They have a wide selection of fish & other seafood items which is nice, but there is no one to properly explain for you what they are, how they are cooked (grilled? fried? etc.) I think they should respect their customers more, give them a decent menu, & enough time at the table to order properly, instead of rushing them to order right away in front of a crowded fridge.
We have ordered on 3 occasions & we live in ndg so we traveled a 25$ taxi fare to get their food which was delicious the salmon & the shrimp with rice all in all worth every penny. I recommend a visit to their place if you want fresh seafood large portions yes a little expensive but if you calculate the cost of seafood then their prices are reasonable.

Rayan is a seafood restaurant that offers a truly fresh & unique experience. The moment you arrive, you'll be guided to the display fridge to choose from a variety of fish, shrimp, crab, & other available seafood. You simply pick what you like, & then you're shown to your table.
Right away, your seafood is freshly prepared & served in a delicious Greek style. If you love seafood, I'm sure you'll be happy with your choice.
Personally, I don't particularly enjoy peeling shrimp at the table, but that takes nothing away from the freshness & incredible taste of the food.
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 👌👌👌
My family's favorite restaurant for fresh seafood & delicious side dishes. The owner & staff are the best: generous, kind, polite & sincerely rare. I value this place highly, & also recommend it without any reserve. The food is fresh, tasty & satisfying. A must go to in Montreal Cote des Neiges area!
Love you guys. Thank you!
Nothing to tell honestly. Rayan is a small fresh fish & seafood market & restaurant that has such great taste ! If you love seafood. There are dinning family tables for supper time meals in a middle eastern style that you have choices to choose from. Different rice styles. You choose how you want your order cooked & etc. or just bring it home & do your own thing but they don't mind. Every time I've been there I was served with lots of smiles & intent listening. They seem to always want to get it right for you & I love that.
Seating, pricing & service is very delightful here ! Tell them I sent you ! ❤?
