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.

I went there few week ago with my wife. To be honest, the food is good but not excellent, nothing outstanding, I give the food a 4*. The prices are ridiculously high for the amount you get. Nothing justify their prices. I don't recommand it. Also when there is no menu & only a black board, please take at least the time to write everything nicely enough to be understandable, it looks like it's a doctor from the ER who wrote... The service was ok but as mentionned in other reviews the owner looks somehow pretentious in his attitude, not a friendly or humble vibe. It is not bad, it just not worth the trip or the money. I have been in spain many time, love this country & love spanish food but I was disappointed, something is missing & the bill end up to be really high & we felt a bit ripped off like if the quantity were enough only for the cheapest ingredients of the plate, but for the tastiest ingredient the quantity were tiny like not even enough to feed a baby.

On a passé une très belle soirée ! La bouffe était très bonne & le service aussi. Je viens de l'Espagne mais j'habite ici depuis 8 ans. Mes parents visitent souvent & ils aiment la cuisine espagnole, ils étaient super contents & ils ont dit que c'est le meilleur restaurant qu'ils ont essayé à Montréal. Leur vermut est aussi très bon :) On reviendra !

What a great way to begin a week long vacation in Montreal. Do yourself a favor & ask the host to curate your selections for you. We'll be back again before we go home.

Ambiance: - Plus un bistro high end $$$ qu'un bar à tapas. La bouffe; - Exécution : très bien - Le goût: manque un petit kick/je ne sais quoi

We stumbled into this restaurant, tired & hungry from a day of traveling. The maitre d' saw us coming & proceeded to take care of us the way a maitre d' should. He ascertained how hungry we were (very) & curated a most delicious meal. There was a deliciously crunchy fried thing, a Spanish tortilla with lobster, sweetbreads that were light & delicious despite being fried, a morel & fried egg dish that was out of this world, & steak frites that were a religious experience. To describe dessert as French toast with vanilla ice cream doesn't do this dish justice. All the wait staff were top notch. Seriously. Go here & eat. You will not regret it.
