Review Summary

Reviewers describe Restaurant La Mer Rouge as a cozy, unpretentious seafood spot in Montreal with warm, attentive service and affordable prices. Fresh seafood is highlighted for quality and flavor, with dishes such as calamari, shrimp tempura, fried calamari, grilled fish, tilapia, and a seafood chowder drawing frequent praise. The focus on sustainable, local ingredients and careful preparation is noted, and the menu is described as varied yet approachable. The atmosphere is often described as welcoming and relaxed, making it a good choice for family meals or casual get togethers, and both the owner and staff are consistently praised for friendliness and helpful service. Many diners consider the prices reasonable and the place easy to find, with several calling it one of the best seafood spots in town and stating they will return. Occasionally a review notes that the experience did not meet expectations or that value could be better, but the overall impression is consistently positive.

First time here & the food was great! I had the shrimp tempura & it was nice & fresh, the shrimp & the potatoes were super crisp. We also had the fried calamari, so good! The owner is super nice & friendly, he even lowered the music so we could talk more :) Everything on the menu is affordable, we'll be back!

Visited this cozy seafood restaurant on a quiet Monday & was pleasantly surprised. It's not fancy, but the atmosphere is warm & welcoming. I had the fried seafood platter-crispy, light, & full of flavor. My mom had the grilled tilapia with salad & said it was one of the best she's had. The service was excellent-friendly & attentive. Plus, being back in my childhood neighborhood made the whole experience even more special. Highly recommend if you're looking for great seafood in a relaxed setting!

This has always been a seafood lover's hidden gem. Not a lot of people know that they probably have the best calamari in MTL. Rayan's is delicious, but they certainly have the best spices & much better fried seafood there is than other seafood restaurants. The shrimp & calamari are the go to, they are crispy & super fresh!

Once you figure out the system (either pick fresh sea food by weight, have it deep fried, in garlic sauce or in BBQ, OR, order from the menu), it's a wonderful ambiance, family oriented, & the food was delicious. Great seafood!

Food was yummy I liked it. Was not wow but was ok. I ordered grilled shrimp & the seasoning was ok. It tasted different, not sure if it is a good different or a bad different. But it was ok so i would give it 7/10. Fried calamari was flavourful but over cooked so I would give it 6/10. Grilled salmon was yummy & cooked to perfection so I would give it 8/10. Also a side if vegetables was a bit salty but yummy actually, I would also give it 8/10. We ordered a side of Sayadeya rice & I won’t recommend it. It was very plain, soggy & no taste.

Service, was “Meh” I ordered water & the cup was all smudged, no was an ew for me. So I did not touch it. The lady came to check on us i asked for another one with some ice, she said sure & she never brought anything. The bill for what you can see in the pictures including the rice, it cost $153🧐 waaaaaay over priced! Also, Inside the Restaurant was so hot i am not sure if the AC was broken or what? But it was boiling hot inside & was not that clean as well.
So overall experience I would give it 5/10.
