My friends & I had a truly exceptional dining experience at Restaurant Zante! The food is remarkably fresh & bursting with flavor - the quality is consistently high. What truly sets this place apart however, is the outstanding service. The owner Costa & the manager Duli, are incredibly friendly, attentive, & ensure that every guest feels welcome. Five stars aren't enough - I highly recommend Zante to anyone seeking a fantastic meal in a warm & inviting atmosphere!

Recently had our annual boys Christmas dinner at Zante & wow, what a night it was! The food was what you'd expect from such a high-quality establishment The waiters were extremely attentive for needs & we missed for nothing I don't know if it's like this every Friday night but we had the luck of having a DJ that was playing fantastic music & the owner, Kosta, Was checking in on all the tables to make sure that his clients were fully satisfied. I strongly recommend this place !!!
When it comes to the quality of food, I can't compare Zante to any other restaurant in the city. Everything was great! The service was amazing as well. I love that they have a DJ playing music on Saturdays, it really set the tone for the weekend. Can't wait to be back!

Everything on the menu is of the highest quality & is delicious. The staff is very professional. The service is always A1. The owner & the manager are always on hand to make sure that everything runs smoothly. It has become my go to place.
Food & service were both excellent. Party of 4 - all of us had fish & the quality was outstanding. We enjoyed a lovely evening on the patio. Highly recommend.
We are residents of the United State & so I asked my friend who lives in Montreal to give the names of her favorite restaurants to me. Zante was the first name on her list. Now we know why. The food is exquisite- beautifully prepared, very fine quality, a full menu with lots of wonderful choices, & absolutely delicious. Our waiter was charming, professional, & attentive. Prices are reasonable. Come to Zante. I think you will be delighted as we were. Anita
