Had to fight with my food to eat it, the shrimps weren’t descaled… Very dissatisfied.

Reviews / Ratings for Le Canal
My favorite places to eat seafood around Montreal. The food is always excelent, and everyone there was so kind and welcoming. They’ve recently expanded the space, so there are more tables now, which makes it even better.
Really great seafood, everything is so good
amazing food
If you like seafood this is the place!!! Pick what you want and they cook it on the spot!!!
It does not look like much, but the food is simply great, very fresh and reasonably priced. Shrimps are probably the best dish, but I've never had a bad experience, going to come back for more. Dining in is an option, takeout is great and not all plastic.
He has clean sea food

Finally tried this restaurant, love it, all see fruit are so fresh and delicious, we definitely will come back and try other fish next time.
Great place. Highly recommend.
Great place for seafood! The rice and salad took me by surprise very tasty. Everything was fresh and flavorful. This will definitely be my go-to spot.
Very clean area.
Perfect!!!
Best seafood, the grilled shrimps were amazing.
Food is delicious! Great variety of fresh seafood that they prepare from scratch. Loved the grilled octopus and fried seafood plate too. Service is kind. Place is packed and noisy but it’s because it is so popular.
Multiple vital pieces of equipment and public infrastructure were out of order during my visit, with absolutely no warning signs posted. I wasted valuable time trying to utilize facilities that were fundamentally broken. The lack of basic communication regarding broken systems shows a complete disregard for the visitor experience and highlights terrible maintenance schedules.
Incredible seafood! I've never had anything like it! Fresh and cooked perfectly, and the seasonings with fresh herbs and red onions were delicious! Get the grilled octopus and scallops!!
Friendly staff, great food. Now you need a reservation during busy hours.
Definitely a fish market with a restaurant...the food is worth the visit...the servers need to be a bit more friendly. They place your food on the table and walk away. What if it wasn't your food? Overall.. definitely would go again when in the area.
Fantastic Egyptian fish!!!! This is as good as - if not better - than fish we get in Egypt!! Feels like im in Cairo, or Hurghada, or Sharm… yummy yummy fish. The kids devoured the salad, the shrimps, the mussels, the fish…. We all devoured and enjoyed everything and did not once stop to take pictures. Service is a little slow because they were busy (which they deserve!) but the staff are kind and friendly. Will be coming back for sure!
As good as if not better than what you can get back home. Amazing and worth the money.
