Review Summary

Poissonnerie & Restaurant Rayan is widely praised for its exceptionally fresh and delicious seafood, which patrons can personally select and have prepared to their liking in a unique market-style environment. Many long-time visitors and newcomers alike highlight the high quality of dishes like calamari, grilled fish, and shrimp, often comparing the warm, authentic atmosphere to dining in the Middle East. While the culinary experience is consistently rated as top-tier, several guests have raised concerns regarding a lack of transparent pricing, the absence of a menu, and issues with final billing practices, including unexpected service charges or tax discrepancies. Despite these points of contention, the majority of diners appreciate the attentive staff and the overall flavor, making it a popular and frequently recommended destination for seafood enthusiasts in Montreal.

Décevant.
L'accueil est bien vaut 4🌟, mais le service à la poissonnerie moins que zéro en plus la cuisson laisse à désirer.
La constance n'est pas au rendez-vous, ce qui est pourtant essentiel dans un restaurant.
J'y suis déjà allé par le passé, & malheureusement, ça ne s'améliore pas.
Pour le prix, la qualité n'y était pas. Dommage, car le potentiel est là.

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.

The food is good. Prices are very high for what you're getting, & they always try to push you to take too much food.

La cuisine y est très bonne, rien à redire de ce côté. Mais vérifiez bien votre facture avant de payer! Choisissez votre poisson & faites le peser & demandez son prix juste, car ils ont tendance à facturer plus cher à la caisse! On nous avait donné un prix pour deux poissons pour ensuite se voir charger plus du double à la caisse, & le caissier avait l'air pressé de faire payer mon mari. J'ai dû interrompre & insister 2x pour voir la facture détaillée. Le caissier a soit disant confondu le 35$ de poisson pour 85$. J'ai pas trouvé ça drôle malgré ses excuses. Bref vérifiez bien avant de payer car c'est pas la première fois qu'on se retrouve avec une facture très dispendieuse pour le peu qu'on à mangé là bas. On aurait dû vérifier les fois précédentes
