Great restaurant in the main area in the Old Port of Montreal. Covered from afternoon sun, nice patio & they are'pet friendly'. We had our 2 Yorkies under the table.
Had the Salmon, well cooked & tender & the Seafood linguine. Had 6 mussels & 3 large shrimps. & the marinara was very flavourful.
Solana est un véritable bijou sur la place Jacques-Cartier ! L'ambiance est chaleureuse & accueillante, parfaite pour se détendre entre amis ou en famille. La nourriture est délicieuse, fraîche & savoureuse, chaque plat est un vrai régal pour les papilles. Le service est impeccable, rapide & souriant. Un endroit que je recommande vivement & où je reviendrai sans hésiter !

Excellent Restaurant
Accueil très chaleureux, service impeccable, une cuisine très délicieuse servie avec soin & beaucoup d'attention
Un Grand Merci à Aya pour son accueil & à Nael pour son professionnalisme, son service & son sourire
Very nice place, good food & excellent service. Gabriel speaks French, English & Spanish. We were seated at the terrace. Highly recommend after a long walk by the old port. Congratulations
This was the perfect place to stop for a glass of wine & poutine after a busy day of sightseeing. We sat on the outdoor patio, listening to the street performers. The food was great, atmosphere was lovely & our server, Gabriel, was outstanding, taking the time to listen to us & make menu suggestions. He was friendly, professional & very sweet. We enjoyed our visit to this restaurant & hope to return soon. .
Solana is a great new addition to the local food scene. The atmosphere is modern, the staff is friendly, & the food is absolutely delicious. Great service, friendly owners & a menu that's both creative & satisfying. Highly recommend!
Loved my dinner at Solana in the Old Port. Christine the hostess was so sweet & welcoming, & Albert behind the bar made fantastic drinks. The salmon was perfectly cooked-not dry at all. Clean space, good music, & super friendly staff. Can't wait to go back!
Nice atmosphere right on the pedestrian area. Very kind waitress Leanna & the other staff also very good. Excellent gin & tonic. Good priced beers. Tasty cheese pizza. We liked it so much
