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 offers a welcoming, calm, and cozy dining experience in a spacious historic building with multiple seating areas and a sunny terrace. A large pay by weight buffet plus cafe options showcases a wide range of vegetarian and vegan dishes praised for freshness and flavor. Desserts and coffee are popular finishers, and many diners appreciate the chance to sample a variety while avoiding waste through the weight based pricing. Service is described as friendly and efficient, though a few reviews note that some hot items can be lukewarm and that prices can feel steep to some. The atmosphere remains relaxed and family friendly, making it a reliable spot for solo meals or group outings. Accessibility can be a consideration with stairs to certain areas, but the space and terrace provide comfortable alternatives. Overall the restaurant is celebrated for its creative vegan offerings, generous variety, and good value for money, drawing repeat visits from both locals and visitors.
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.
Definitely recommend going during the week.

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!
I love that Resto Vego exists. Prices are very reasonable, loveee the buffet option (pay per weight). Tons of vegan options. Lots of seating areas/options, big & air-y.
Only cons: hot food is sometimes luke-warm, & service is not always very friendly.
Still, recommended!
C'est bon même si un peu trop salé ou sucré question de goût. Ce qui me choque le plus c'est le prix abusé cela n'a pas de sens . Pour la partie à emporter je reviendrais à l'occasion pour le sur place avec le côté buffet non merci
While the food is fresh & the variety is great, it's hard to justify coming here more than once a season when there's so many cheaper options in nearby Chinatown. It's rather easy to find vegan/vegetarian dishes there too- most restos have tofu on the menu & the Chinatown jade buffet has an entire section of vegetarian food (which I believe is also vegan).
