Follow this tip & save time - call & reserve your table for dine in! Arrived at around 6pm on a Friday & it was packed to the brim, immediately placed our name on the wait-list. Greeted with the melodious recitation of the Quran, I'm confident that the food will be served high quality as Muslims with business are only supposed to serve the best to their customers, rest assured. Around 20mins later got seats & the table was prepared promptly. Headed down to the seafood display area, great variety of fishes & seafood, tempting anyone with a huge appetite. You pick your seafood & they will cook this up to your choice. Ordered the salmon (grilled), scallops (grilled with butter & herbs), fries with this really lovely sour cream ish flavor, branzino (deep fried) to perfection, shrimp (with spicy sauce) & yellow rice. We smashed them within minutes, they were all so good especially the shrimp with spicy sauce & the deep fried branzino. There is an equivalent concept to this in NYC called Abuqir but we believe this restaurant Le Canal is cleaner, more organized, bigger dining area & to be honest the flavors were better. No need to mention HALAL here since in the Quran it is mentioned "Lawful to you is what you catch from the sea & use for food as provision for yourself & the travelers".

This is a must try spot. Had grilled scallops, octopus, bronzino & fried calamari. As sides we had salad, rice , & grilled veggies. The octopus & scallops were my favorite. Everything was super fresh & seasoned greatly. Drove 45 minutes to get to this place & would definitely do it again if I end up back in Montreal again.

The grilled octopus is absolutely phenomenal! I also had the tiger shrimps, & the salad/sauce on the bottom tasted like heaven. Highly, highly recommend this place!

Finally got my fish & seafood loving family here for dinner ! The food was SO amazing & SO tasty. The grilled fish (salmon & tilapia) was perfection & portions generous. The batter on the fish (& chips) was delicate & delicious so the taste of the fish was the focal point. The octopus salad was really really good (but too much salad dressing) Definitely a new favorite & we will be back to try other things on the menu !

I recently visited this restaurant for the second time in a while. It makes a huge difference when you have a manager who is passionate introducing you to the options & tastes with their recommendations. Plus when they have fun doing it, you can see the vibe reciprocate into the quality & value of the food. Definitely the best seafood place as of recent that i have visited if you want a sit down or take out for traditional high quality Mediterranean. I had Calamari, mussels, grilled shrimp & shrimp soup. The calamari were thick & juicy (not over fried or bottom of the pan quality). The shrimp baste was amazing with the mussel lemon garlic. Will definitely return.

This place is far & away from those tourist spots in Montreal but YOU MUST TRY HERE! It's a hidden jam. You basically choose what seafood you want to eat & let them know the size by pound. They will ask whether to grill them or fry, they are all your choice. You can look at the prices online & decide. We ordered half pound shrimp & octopus, a whole seabass, small rice & grilled veggies. Everything was so amazing & price was perfect too. Our portion was really for 3-4 people but we (2) wanted to try different things. It was a lot of food for two ppl but we still ate them all 😂 we were super full at the end but came back home with happy stomach. The owner & everyone else were so kind & friendly.💖

Hands down one of the best restaurants in Montreal. Everything is so fresh, seasoned & cooked to perfection. I recommend the grilled octopus & the scallops. The grilled shrimp are also great. Honestly, this is some of the best seafood I've ever had. The service is also very quick & friendly!
