For 18 years, Zante has offered Greek-inspired Mediterranean cuisine in an elegant white-tablecloth setting. Guided by simplicity, quality ingredients, and genuine hospitality, we create an authentic experience where every detail matters.
Zante offers a warm, sophisticated atmosphere that matches Montreal's vibrant spirit, inviting guests to linger over a Mediterranean menu built on fresh ingredients and thoughtful preparation. Dishes shine with bold, authentic flavors from appetizers to mains, with standout notes on fish, octopus, lamb chops, and a superb Greek salad that many reviewers call the best. The setting is complemented by attentive, friendly service and a lively yet comfortable vibe, including a gorgeous summer patio that adds to the overall charm. While the room can get noisy during busy times and some portions or prices may feel steep to a few, the overall experience is consistently praised as memorable. Zante remains a go-to for diners who value quality, warmth, and a lively atmosphere that makes each visit feel special.
Thoroughly enjoyed our meal. We were 4 & ordered the grilled vegetables & the calamari as appetizers, & had the grilled octopus, sea bass & grilled shrimp as our main meals. Everything was fresh & delicious & our bottle of Greek white wine was the perfect accompaniment. Friendly service throughout. An excellent evening!
The problem with Zante is that once is never enough. You ALWAYS want to come back for more.. & so I did. Why fight over which salad to get ? Get a few.. they are insane. Few places have Staff that recall you were there not long ago & come to say thank you & hello. Out of the ball park again on all fronts.
Very pricey for standard Greek food, fish was cooked well however our roasted vegetables that was suppose to be the side was scorched french beans. Ordered a pre-dinner drink & had 3 sides served before even finishing my drink, in & out in 1 hour at the end the waiter brought the bill & was hovering at the table waiting for it to be paid. Asked for some leftovers to be brought home to our daughter, they never brought it back. Felt like eating at a fast food restaurant where there are no reservations & a line up waiting to get in! There of course was no line up. Very disappointed, it was our wedding anniversary dinner & we had planned on dining at a Montreal Greek restaurant that is without contest the #1 in the city, didn't because of a recommendation to eat at Zante .... big mistake
