Resto Keela offers a lively yet welcoming vibe with consistently tasty dishes and generous portions, from Cornish Hen and pesto with garlic to octopus, scallops, and a standout oyster lineup, plus burgers, steaks, garlic knots, and bread with hummus; the cocktails and wine receive praise as well. Live music on Fridays adds to the atmosphere, and service is frequently described as attentive and friendly, though a few visits mention slower pacing when the venue is busy. Across many reviews, the place is seen as a neighborhood gem with inventive, well executed dishes, excellent celery root carpaccio, and strong flavors across the menu, and many guests say they would happily return, even as some note high prices, occasional service gaps, or limited accessibility.
The restaurant was quiet when we went in, so we sat at the bar & had a great conversation with the bartender! He was friendly & gave us some great Montreal recommendations. The celery root carpaccio was one of the most unique, delicious appetizers I've ever had.
Endroit super cute & chaleureux. Service un peu lent une fois le resto bondé, mais les 3 employés sur le plancher faisait leur possible. Personnel super sympatique & courtois !
great vibe. great staff. short menu, so you know they can focus on making the dishes perfectly. the house bread in the stone oven was SOOO good. Grilled octopus was on-point & the filet mignon was perfectly cooked. we ate so much, we didn't have room for the desserts which looked just as yummy as the main courses. highly recommend!
