Review Summary

Venice Mtl is widely recognized as a charming, California-inspired retreat in the heart of the Old Port, praised for its vibrant, cozy atmosphere and consistently fresh, high-quality poke bowls, burgers, and tacos. While many guests rave about the healthy menu options, creative cocktails, and friendly, efficient service that makes the restaurant a go-to spot for both casual lunches and relaxed dinners, some visitors have expressed concerns regarding rising prices, smaller portion sizes, and occasional inconsistencies in service speed or food seasoning. Despite these mixed remarks, the establishment remains a popular, well-decorated destination that captures a refreshing, beach-like vibe, earning frequent recommendations for its unique decor and overall inviting experience.

The place seemed very promising! Some folks really enjoyed their meal (the poke bowls) even though it was small for the price it was. On the other hand, the tacos were really small & lacked spice & flavour. The atmosphere was good but it did get really crowded. Lastly, the service was disappointing. They got a meal wrong & gave us attitude when we tried to rectify the mistake. The servers seemed very overwhelmed but kept inviting more folks in.

Hopefully you can improve on these points. Wishing you the best

Nice bright & airy atmosphere within old Montreal. Pricey & small
Portions esp for the tacos. Many Smoothies weren't available .
Service was quick but our server didn't speak to us! She nodded & smiled but didn't say one word! Maybe cos she knew we were English speaking 😂

The ambiance is charming.
Service was good though one of the servers did not seem like he wanted to be there.
The tacos were good BUT my salmon poke bowl was WAY too salty… felt like rice with a side of salmon with an ingredrient that was too salty & overpowered the aftertaste…
Was too overprice for the portion.
Chop sticks felt cheap.

Service très sympathique. Poke bowl très bon mais tacos au poulet très sec. La galette de maïs très basique & sans goût.

Superbe adresse au coeur du Vieux-Montréal ! Venice MTL propose une cuisine fraîche, colorée & savoureuse, inspirée de la Californie. Les poke bowls, tacos & salades sont excellents, toujours bien présentés & pleins de saveurs. L'ambiance est moderne & décontractée, parfaite pour un repas entre amis ou en couple. Le service est rapide & chaleureux, & les prix restent très raisonnables pour la qualité. Une valeur sûre !

Leuke, rustig restaurant in een rustige straat in het centrum van Montreal. Het eten is allemaal zeer betaalbaar en erg lekker. De Tao bowl met fried cauliflower en de Chipotle Lime Chicken taco's waren heerlijk.
