Fantastic fish restaurant. I haven't had such good fish in my adult life, and I've been to many here in Montreal, as well as around the world. The fact that you pick your fish and they grill or fry it right there, is just such an amazing concept. I just love the ambiance, the people are so friendly and kind, the owner is always there, making sure all runs smoothly, and the food, OMG, delicious, fresh, baked and fried to the T, out of this world. I can't get over this place, we are recommending it to all our friends, family, and keep going every week. You MUST TRY , You won't regret it.

I love how they season their octopus salad. Among the best salads I’ve had in a while

I recently discovered this restaurant and I am officially hooked! They have incredibly fresh sea food that you can choose from over the counter. Don’t let yourself get fooled by what the interior looks like - everything is in the quality of the food. The shrimps and the octopus salad are delicious - and the fries…unexpectedly the best I have ever had in my life!

This a great place for fresh fish and chips at a reasonable price. Parking is not a problem as it's located at a small shopping plaza. Of course there are other things on the menu like shrimp and octopus if that's what you fancy. The place is not huge and it's simplistic inside with basic chairs and table and an all glass storefront so the ambiance of the place is not one of its selling points. You need to place your order at the cash once you've studied the menu and they give you a number to place at your table where they will deliver your food to you. Take note that you can buy fresh fish and seafood there to make your own meals at home. We've been there 3 times already when we visit the west island as we reside in Ontario. Staff are super friendly and helpful which always makes for a more enjoyable meal.

Absolutely outstanding experience. From the moment you walk inside, you can feel the good energy and good intention behind this family’s restaurant. The food is out of this world, the service is attentive, the place is very clean, the atmosphere is warm (the different patrons speak to each other) - really a family experience.
