A hidden gem in Montreal's downtown core. We went for a birthday. We had the greek salad, creamy salad, grilled vegetables, lamb chops, salmon, shrimp, side of fries & beans.
Every single item was great. Every hot item came out hot & cooked perfectly.
The service was also 5 star with a beautiful ambiance.
Visiting for my first time Montreal coming from Greece, to be in a greek restaurant is always a big bet cause you always expect something'similar' to greek food , the food which is similar to your tastes. It was the biggest surprise for my tasty experience. The food was divine!!! The greek salad fresh in a big portion, the fried kalamari & the fried aubergine & zucchini with tzatziki sauce unbelievable!! The chops juicy melted in your mouth. The boiled octapus & the steamed shrimps unique. Zante s owner & chef are the best ambassadors of the greek food in Canada. As native greek i am so proud of their job & effort!! Congratulations! You deserve every star of my review ⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐?
Visiting Montreal for the first time, & enjoyed an outstanding dining experience at Zantas. The huge shrimp, lamb chops & grilled octopus were outstanding!!
This place got very overpriced for dinner... 42$ for a octopus appetized that was very so so & presentation 0/10 (chopped tentacles with a little bite of oil & onion ... main course 48$ for a piece of cod, 45$ shrimps... Service OK, but not exceptional... I have been there a few time in the past for lunch, but for dinner it was the last time...
Sat outside & had the Greek salad & the fried zucchini, both amazing. Lots of fish dishes & lamb chops looked good. With several apps - very large - & several glasses of wine the bill was $110 total. & on a mild evening the setting on Sherbrooke is very pleasant. For an informal dinner one of the best we've had in Montreal.
Zante was amazing. The hostess & our Italian bartender were charming, attentive, & very engaging. The food was incredible! The zucchini appetizer, the lamb chops, & most importantly, the grilled chicken, were all delightful.
It's really too bad you can't upload pictures here. Otherwise I would share pictures of the best Greek Salad in the country... Lamb chops from the heavens & it just goes on. An amazing dinner last night with my Wife at the bar. Lots of action & interaction with the Team... Mackenzie made some superb martinis & the wine was delicious. Truly world class. Can't wait to come back
It is a superb restaurant...very comfortable seating & excellent staff. Food very fresh - seafood well prepared & lamb chops perfect. We will return for sure. Also it has a good vibe with DJ & party kicking in after the dining experience
