Our Specialties
An array of vegetarian dishes in the dining room via our buffet or as a quick meal at the "Comptoir Gourmand".
Resto Végo is noted for a broad vegetarian and vegan buffet featuring a mix of local, Indian and Chinese dishes, all described as tasty and well prepared. The by weight concept lets guests choose portions that suit their appetite and pay accordingly, with a wide selection of desserts to finish the meal. The venue is described as cozy and spacious, with clear labeling in French and English and friendly staff. While some experiences mention variability in service or ambiance, the overall impression highlights delicious variety and good value that invites a return.
I loved my experience at Resto Végo! I was a big fan of Commensal, as I went there often as a kid, & was looking forward to reliving that same experience.
It was even better than I expected, the location & the freedom to choose between their 2 floors makes you feel at home.
The food at the buffet was amazing, everything was well cooked, seasoned & seemed fresh. I also really appreciated the option to open a table & being able to go back & forth at the buffet & only pay at the end.
Its a perfect mix between a nice, cozy restaurant & the feeling of the freedom of choice.
Greatly recommend!
Le Vego est un endroit de réconfort. Le buffet est varié, frais & délicieux. Le comptoir au premier étage offre d'autres options comme le sandwich au pulled pork végane qui est à tomber par terre!

Le jeune homme au comptoir des sandwiches était très accueillant & souriant. Je ne peux malheureusement pas en dire autant des 3 autres employées avec qui j'ai eu affaire. La caissière entre autres n'a aucune manière, pas de sourire, aucune amabilité, rien. Les deux autres n'étaient guère mieux. On se serait cru dans un salon funéraire. Il n'y a pas vraiment d'ambiance, l'endroit n'a pas de style, ça ressemble à un vieux resto des années 70. Le buffet était correct. J'ai aussi acheté un pâté au millet qui est délicieux, une tarte au sucre ordinaire & un clafoutis très ordinaire. Je ne compte pas y retourner. C'est dommage, car je suis végane & j'aime encourager les restos végétaliens & ceux qui servent une bonne sélection de plats végétaliens. Mais ce resto ne vaut pas le détour pour moi.
This is a fantastic spot for a hot & cold buffet. Large variety of vegetarian & vegan dishes clearly lableed in French & English. Lots of dessert options as well. Delicious food all around! Will definitely revisit on our next trip ❤?
After multiple visits on the weekend days I noted a distinct lower quality on the hot buffet items I always have. It's disappointing because the consistency of great tasting food is why I go there.
I found this spot for my family (8 of us) who are all vegetarian. This was an incredible concept because they have a large buffet with all vegetarian & vegan options!
We were blown away. More cities need places like this!
Everyone had a delicious & filling meal. The ambiance was comfortable & allowed everyone to go back for seconds if needed. You weigh your food & pay accordingly so no waste as well. Topped off with coffee to end the meal.
C'était excellent, les plats étaient variés. Je trouve seulement dommage que ce n'est pas un buffet traditionnel où on peut se resservir. J'ai adoré tous les plats, mais le fait de les goûter seulement après & de repayer pour une autre assiette n'est pas dans mes plans puisque j'avais plus faim. J'aurais aimé pouvoir goûter vin, j'aurais choisi plus de certains plats & moins de d'autres. J'ai adoré!
I really like the variety that this place has. It's all vegetarian/vegan. You can opt for individual meals they have like sandwiches & drinks or you can go for the buffet which charges you per pound of food. My friends & I went for the buffet after practice & it was perfect. The food was warm & we ate enough for the price. My plate was around $17 & I was very full by the end of it. The food is warm & delicious. Some stuff was missing since it was very close to closing but that's ok. I do wish the dessert was included in the price (it's a separate weight fee). The restaurant is big (the buffet is upstairs) so there's enough seating if you go with a group.
It's always nice to add another vegetarian/vegan restaurant to my list of recommendations!
You get to try multiple cusines under one roof as a part of their buffet. Staff was courteous & answered all questions. Must visit for anyone looking for vegetarian food in Montreal.
Notre cantine pour ces quelques jours à Montréal. Personnel professionnel, jus de légumes frais , & buffet végétal & vivant rempli de choix divers & variés pour se régaler à toutes heures. Merci patron !
Une délicieuse institution à Montréal. a
Avec le comptoir, le buffet & les mets préparés à emporter pour la maison pour les soirs de semaine, il y en a pour tous les goûts; & c'est santé, frais, délicieux & abordable. Même sans être végétarien, on ne s'y sent pas privés de quoi que ce soit. Je recommande+++ Longue vie au Végo!

Always great (& I go every week!), either in the cafe or the buffet upstairs - delicious vegan dine-in or ready-to-eat meals in the fridge.
Love the rich choice of desserts!
Not a great experience. The food was okay (though I personally dislike buffets) but the lack of accessibility was very disappointing. Buffet on 2nd floor. Lots of steps, etc. Hard to believe in 2025.
I love this restaurant vegetarian / vegan buffet. It has something for everyone. You pay only for what you weigh in the plate. Or you can have something at the Caffe downstairs.
The staff is very nice but you serve yourself here.
I would totally recommend you to do the experience, especially if you want to try something different.
The desserts are also great. No complaints in all the years I have been a costumer & I keep bringing people to learn about this place.
Check the terrace downstairs outside in summer.
Both the café & buffet offer an incredible selection of unique vegetarian dishes, many of which I haven't come across anywhere else in the GTA. The variety & flavors are truly remarkable.
As vegetarians, it's often challenging to find such an extensive range of options, especially in a city like Montreal. However, this place stands out by offering an impressive selection, including many vegan dishes that perfectly suit vegetarian preferences.
I wish I could have tried everything, but my appetite had its limits!
