Excellent fish restaurant! The seafood was very fresh & full of flavor. The fried dishes were perfectly cooked - crispy, light, & not oily or heavy at all, which made them very enjoyable. You can really notice the quality & freshness of the ingredients.
What made the experience even more special was the flexibility of the menu. The staff offered many options beyond what was listed & were happy to personalize dishes based on our preferences. The service was warm, attentive, & welcoming.
Highly recommended for anyone looking for delicious seafood & a customized dining experience. I will definitely be back!
I was there today with my husband & it was my first time. We had the fish & chips & the calamari dish & they were amazing! They looked so delicious I immediately started eating & forgot to take a photo, but believe me they look better than the photos. Everything about the dishes was good: the fish & the calamari tasted very fresh, the salad had a very tasty dressing, the fries were amazing & so was the rice. The gentleman who served us was very nice & friendly. At the time that we went, approx 3:30 pm, there was only 2 other customers there so it wasn't too busy. I highly recommend it, would definitely go there again to try other things on the menu

I was a customer of Sailor in Beirut, & I am thrilled that they now have a location in Montreal. Their grilled shrimps, Sayyidah riz, & Tajen are superb, along with a variety of other delicious seafood options. I highly recommend it!
I usually order from Uber, but last month, my family & I went to this new restaurant. The food was way better than what we usually get from delivery services. I had to go again today with my dad, & the dish was absolutely amazing! It was so tasty & delicious. I highly recommend it! The atmosphere is nice, & the service is good too.
The service was excellent with everything being clean & well-maintained. The food was delicious, & I truly appreciated the use of reusable materials. The prices were fair & reasonable for the quality provided. Highly recommended!
I was visiting Montreal from Ottawa & happened to come across this restaurant by chance & wow hands down one of the best dining experiences I've had in the city. The food is absolutely delicious, & they are very generous with the portions. I've tried several restaurants in Montreal, but this one really stands out. Every single dish was flavorful & perfectly prepared, & their house sauce is something else. Seriously incredible & highly recommend checking it!!
My girlfriend & I have been to this spot a bunch of times now & it's always amazing. The food is super tasty, comes out fast, & the whole place just has a really friendly, laid-back vibe.
She's Lebanese & always talks about how good & authentic the food is here-which definitely says something! I've tried a few different dishes, but the seafood Alfredo is hands down my favorite. So good.
If you're into seafood, definitely give this place a try. Highly recommend!
