Unique seafood restaurant which you can choose your seafood fresh and we cooked it for you the way you like it and adding our Mediterranean touches. Originally from a port city on the Mediterranean has its reputation of seafood meal we have to meet the high expectations that it comes with the name CANAL.
Le Canal est largement salué pour ses fruits de mer ultra frais, une carte variée et flexible et une ambiance chaleureuse et familiale qui met les clients à l'aise que ce soit sur place ou à emporter; le système au comptoir permet de choisir les fruits de mer au poids et de les faire préparer sur place, avec de nombreux plats salués pour leur saveur, leur qualité et leurs portions généreuses à un prix raisonnable; l'ambiance est décontractée et animée aux heures d'affluence, il est donc conseillé de réserver, le personnel est régulièrement décrit comme aimable et attentif, et l'expérience globale est souvent présentée comme délicieuse, fraîche et bien présentée.
My favorite places to eat seafood around Montreal. The food is always excelent, & everyone there was so kind & welcoming. They've recently expanded the space, so there are more tables now, which makes it even better.

Food is delicious! Great variety of fresh seafood that they prepare from scratch. Loved the grilled octopus & fried seafood plate too. Service is kind. Place is packed & noisy but it's because it is so popular.
This a great place for fresh fish & chips at a reasonable price. Parking is not a problem as it's located at a small shopping plaza. Of course there are other things on the menu like shrimp & octopus if that's what you fancy. The place is not huge & it's simplistic inside with basic chairs & table & an all glass storefront so the ambiance of the place is not one of its selling points. You need to place your order at the cash once you've studied the menu & they give you a number to place at your table where they will deliver your food to you. Take note that you can buy fresh fish & seafood there to make your own meals at home. We've been there 3 times already when we visit the west island as we reside in Ontario. Staff are super friendly & helpful which always makes for a more enjoyable meal.
Amazing seafood experience! Everything was incredibly fresh & perfectly cooked. The flavors were rich, the presentation was beautiful, & the portions were generous. The staff was friendly & attentive, making the whole experience even better. A must-visit for any seafood lover - I'll definitely be coming back! 🦞🍤
This restaurant is a standout for their green salad-perfect for those who prefer a smoother, dressing-driven vibe! The scallops were marinated beautifully in lemon, garlic, & butter, though 4 pieces felt a bit light for the price. Highlights included amazing crispy fries, flavourful rice, & tender fried calamari. A great seafood spot worth checking out!
It was the best experience I've ever had in Montreal, & the best seafood I've ever eaten in my entire life 😂♥?♥?♥? I'm so happy with this place it's very far from me but definitely I will come again 👌🏼♥?

If you like seafood, this is the best spot. Buy your groceries & have a quick sea bass lunch, perfect 👌. I had the sea bass, not recommended if you don't like fish bones, you should get a fillet instead. Perfectly cooked, super flavorful, even the rice & salade camr seasoned perfecly. The food is healthy & tasty & not too expensive. I definitely recommend this place. 4.7/5
I loved the concept: a good fishmonger with tables. It sounds deceptively simple, but it really works! We got to pick our fresh fish, octopus, shrimp, etc. ourselves, then had it cooked according to our specifications & served immediately. The result was delicious & very fresh seafood, provided at decent prices & presented with a smile.
The batter on our shrimp was impossibly light & flaky, while keeping a consistent crunch; it was like an even lighter tempura. Paired with the rich seasonings, it made one of the best shellfish dishes I've ever had.
The décor references the Suez Canal, the Mediterranean & the Red Sea, & the regional flavours elevate the experience a step further, making this a unique dining experience on the West Island.
