Le chef Paul Toussaint promet ajouter un peu de couleur, d’ambiance et de saveurs caribéennes en plein coeur du Quartier des Spectacles avec son nouveau projet, Kamúy.
Nos Spécialités
Fruits de mer, jerk, desserts maison, cocktails & variété de rhum.
Kamúy propose une cuisine haïtienne riche et chaleureuse, où les plats généreux et savoureux comme le griot tendre, le poulet frit croustillant, le riz djon djon, les accras et les plats de poisson ravissent par leurs saveurs, leurs textures et leurs présentations soignées; la carte mêle tradition et touches créoles, avec des options végétariennes et des combinaisons de riz, haricots et plantains qui régalent par leur diversité. Les cocktails, dont le Corossol Colada, et les boissons créoles complètent l'expérience. L'ambiance est cosy et accueillante, propice aux rencontres entre amis ou en couple, avec une musique qui participe au voyage sans dominer les conversations. Le service est chaleureux et attentif, les conseils sur le menu utiles et les portions généreuses, ce qui rend Kamúy facilement recommandable pour une soirée réussie près du quartier des spectacles ou avant un spectacle.

The food here is very good. We tried the Griot, hummus, pintarde (guinea fowl) & spicy jerk chicken & all of them were extremely flavourful & unique. The spicy jerk chicken is actually spicy which I appreciated as well! I highly recommend this restaurant if you're in the area or as a place to go before a show at Place des Arts.
While the food was great I do have a couple of critiques: The cocktail menu while pretty extensive was very expensive & there was only one beer available (Corona), & the tables were not very good. Wobbly & the kind you'd find at a cheap breakfast restaurant or something of that nature.
None of these things really hindered the dining experience & like I said the food was amazing, but if there's anything to improve it'd be these.
Nous avons passé une excellente soirée au restaurant: la nourriture était délicieuse ( le griot fond à la bouche, le poisson est bien épicés mais pas piquant, le pain patate en dessert arrosé de crémas nous a ramené à notre enfance). Le Dj met de l'ambiance avec des rythmes qui nous emporte ailleurs malgré le froid glacial.
Le chef est toujours présent, très humble & courtois attentif au besoin de ses clients .
Je vous recommande cet restaurant bien situé au coeur du quartier des spectacles
The food was flavorful, comforting, & full of fresh ingredients. It used spices & herbs to create rich, bold tastes, with dishes like rice & beans, fried plantains, & marinated meats. Their meals were warm, homey, & rooted in Creole tradition. Their drinks were also interesting & unique. Will definitely recommend to friends.
Con: difficult to find parking, but is accessible via Metro & bus.
We had an exceptional experience at Kamúy. The Haitian dishes were full of rich flavor & beautifully presented. Our waiter went above & beyond - he kindly walked us through each menu item, explained the ingredients, & made thoughtful recommendations that did not disappoint. The hospitality was warm & genuine, making the entire dining experience unforgettable. Kamúy is a true celebration of Haitian cuisine & culture - highly recommended!
J'ai eu le plaisir de dîner au Kamuy & je dois dire que tout était parfait. La nourriture était absolument délicieuse, pleine de saveurs & magnifiquement présentée. Le service était tout aussi remarquable : chaleureux, attentionné & professionnel. On sent que chaque détail est pensé pour offrir une expérience mémorable. Je recommande vivement ce restaurant à tous les amateurs de bonne cuisine !

J'y suis allée à quelques reprises déjà & à chaque fois, l'expérience fut agréable. J'ai beaucoup apprécié l'entrée d'hummus aux haricots à oeil noir, onctueuse & savoureuse, ainsi que le poulet frit, croustillant à souhait. Mon coup de coeur fut assurément le cocktail Corossol Colada. La fusion de saveurs créoles est très réussie. L'ambiance est chaleureuse, même si l'éclairage en soirée est un peu sombre à mon goût, sans que cela n'enlève à la qualité de l'expérience globale. Une belle adresse que je recommande autant pour un souper entre amis que pour une sortie de couple.
j'ai trop aimé ce resto. Déjà La cuisine est super bonne & pleine de saveurs. Leur riz djon djon était incroyable . Les cocktails aussi étaient super bons. Niveau ambiance, le service top.
Perso je recommande à 100 % si vous aimez la cuisine caribéenne ou si vous voulez la découvrir 😍
Food was good.
The place is a bit small, so reservation is recommended.
Server was a bit forgetful, but everyone was nice.
Update July 2025: there can be a wait for their bathroom as one is broken. Also, during festival season after 7pm, they only have a 70$ menu option. The terasse is great during festival season, though it can be difficult to hear each other if you want to talk
Excelent. The composition, empathy of waiters, everything is exceptional beyond words. Come here. The music, service, & food is made in the way of an ideal restaurant experience almost anybody would want. The food takes a long time to come, but it's worth it.
I'd recommend meeting the restaurants owner, Paul Toussaint. He is a great guy to meet!
I don't know how the parking is, I walked here.

Food was exceptional as well as the drinks. But I gave 2 stars for the service. Our waiter from Haiti does not know how to read the room. First he approached our table with a joke but it came across like an insult so it set us up poorly to begin with. Then, he only spoke to my boyfriend THE ENTIRE NIGHT. We were joking amongst ourselves that our waiter was in love. There were a group of 4 of us together & the 3 of us gave up at one point & just continued chatting between us since we were obviously not of any interest to our waiter. Not to mention, I'm paying the bill for myself & my partner & leaving the tip, so I'd appreciate some decency? He did not look at me once, he took my boyfriends order first, would randomly shake his hand, talked to him the entire time, ignored all the rest of us, made weird jokes, smelled like cigarettes, recommended things twice after we said we were not interested, & he waited so long to take our order but claimed he was letting us chat while we were wondering why he was taking so long. We would all go back but we'd hope to get a different waiter.
Reallly good experience! The food was so good, & very elevated. Service was also the best service I've experienced in Montreal so far, helping us with the menu & which selection of dishes to try. Went for a birthday dinner, the vibe was also nice inside & the location too. Would highly recommend & definitely coming back again
Excellent restaurant. La salade de betterave, les accras, le ceviche & la griot étaient un délice. Merci à JP pour son service VIP. Nous recommandons & nous y retourneront.
J'ai passé une excellente soirée au restaurant Kamuy, un accueil chaleureux , excellent service. Les plats que nous avons choisi étaient délicieux avec une belle prestation & l'ambiance du restaurant très sympathique. Un réel plaisir de souper dans cet endroit charmant. Je vous recommande fortement ce restaurant pour toutes sorte d'occasions. Une équipe très joviale
What a unique culinary experience of an underrepresented cuisine - modern Caribbean. Delicious & wonderfully spiced dishes. We had the hummus, shrimp & braised pork to start, absolutely delicious, the pork was so tender & paired very well with the plantain fritters & vinegar coleslaw. Mains consisted of vegetable curry, jerk chicken & the lamb shank, all seasoned to perfection & comforting, I really felt the love. Do yourself a favour & order the sweet potato dessert, a mix between pumpkin pie & spice cake, perfect for fall & winter. Coffee with coconut milk & rum is a must. Friendly, courteous & quick service in a cozy & homey atmosphere, music not too loud (this is a pet peeve of mine & this place absolutely passed the test). Even though the restaurant was full, there was a nice calm vibe throughout the entire service. The owner came to our table & chatted with us which is always a nice touch, definitely recommend for an intimate dinning expérience.
I am probably going to spell it wrong, but the "griot" was amazingly good. It's one meal I like to eat from time to time & this one was amazing. Tender & crispy outside. Corosol juice is a noce discovery & a Chef's Paul Sour is just sour enough with a nice rhum touch. The jerk chicken will satisfy most people who loves spiced food like me. The chef Paul Toussaint came himself to our table to ask avout our experience. I can only recommend this place! We will go again ;)
