Details

About

Restaurant Bar Vivar operates as a vibrant hybrid space that functions as both a curated market and a Spanish-inspired eatery. Patrons find an assortment of high-quality imported goods, such as artisanal cheeses, cured meats, and specialized pantry staples that reflect authentic Iberian culinary traditions. The preparation of hot plates prioritizes bold, simple flavors characteristic of classic Mediterranean cooking techniques. Seasonal vegetables, fresh seafood, and savory tapas dominate the menu, providing a focused selection of small plates designed for communal consumption. Wooden accents and minimalist shelving define the aesthetic, bridging the gap between a functional retail environment and a casual dining destination. This dual-concept establishment ensures that guests can shop for gourmet ingredients while simultaneously engaging with the rich, unpretentious flavors of regional Spanish recipes.

Bar Vivar is undoubtedly the best tapas restaurant in Montreal & rivals the best spots in Spain. Chef Georges is a perfectionist when it comes to his craft with unique recipes, freshest ingredients & constantly changing menu. Excellent is an understatement.

Amazing place! The chef is an expert in Spanish cuisine. The place has a special charm & many details from Galicia (northern Spain). The Spanish tortilla with crab, & the octopus were delicious. It was a surprise to find this place in Montreal. The Santiago's cake teleported me to Spain ❤️. All the staff are very friendly. A place worth visiting!

Un sitio muy agradable en una calle muy animada. Preparan buenos platos típicos espanoles y tienen un servicio muy amable. El chico de cocina es muy majo y conoce perfectamente la cocina espanola. ¡La tarta de Santiago es espectacular!

My Husband & I had a delightful experience at Vivar with Patrick one of the owners. The food is fresh, delicious with beautiful presentation. Patrick's knowledge of wine was amazing, he had us enjoying a great variety of wines from around the world. The place is cozy & welcoming. If I didn't live 6 hours away I would make this my go to place tapas & wine. You must put this on your list of places to try!

This is my new favorite tapas bar place in Montreal. The food is simply delicious from start to finish. The restaurant/bar has that relaxed, fun feel, where you can catch a sports game while eating. We had various plates from the daily menu & everything was super delicious. The service is simply impeccable (thank you Patrick!). Will certainly go back again & again to Bar Vivar.
