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.
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.

Still our favorite vegetarian restaurants ever! Staff is always nice, the variety is amazing the food is fresh & delicious the ambiance is cozy they have a garden for the summer. The prices are reasonable for the quality of the food too. Highly recommended.
An easy 5 stars. Massive choice of hot or cold food - see pics. Each dish described for contents in French & English.
Big dessert bar as well.
CAD35 per Kg (excluding plate.) 2 plates of hot food will cost about 42 dollars Inc taxes.
I could eat there every day.
J'ai découvert ce resto il y a 30 ans, ce fut un coup de coeur instantané. A ce jour, cela reste un de mes restaurants préféré. Tout est savoureux. Les employés & l'ambiance sont impeccables. Le piano au sous-sol me manque par contre...
A great choice of hot & cold vegetarian & vegan food. You simply choose from the many & varied dishes then pay after your plate of food is weighed. Everything we ate was delicious. We will be back as places like this are rare.
Been coming here since the early days, (42 years & counting) thru different locations, name changes & still the Best of the Best, in my Humble Opinion.. Pierre
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.
Best restaurant for vegans in Montreal!
- choose what you want.
- Pay for what you selected.
- You always see how the dish looks like.
- Over 50 dishes & 20 desserts.
- all labeled & clear ingredients list
- keep in mind not all the dishes are vegan, but they are clearly labelled
- stuff is very friendly, picks up empty trays & dishes from your hands.
- very good value for money please especially if you are vegan or vegetarian.
I loveeee this place! 😍 They have so many vegan options to choose from. The food is very good, especially the sandwiches at the counter which I highly recommend. The BBQ sandwich & the Tex Mex sandwich are my go-to's. What I love the most about this place other than the food is the atmosphere. You'll almost always find a spot to sit at. It's very introvert-friendly & peaceful, if you're looking for a spot to eat by yourself comfortably, this restaurant is a great option. I've also seen plenty of large group gatherings though, so they cater to everyone. Great spot 💚

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!
As a vegetarian all my life, I can say with great gastronomic happiness that this is one of most amazing veg places I've been to. Leave side all your notions of classic veg food, & come here to be delighted by the delicious spread of tasty, healthy & nutritious food.
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!
