Bodega

Food, service and warmth

3456 Parc Avenue
(Near Milton)
Montreal, QC H2X 2H5
Canada
+1 514 849 2030

When you've been around as long as this restaurant, you know what it takes to keep your customers coming back: good food, good service and a warm, friendly atmosphere to warm the cockles of the heart on even the coldest Montreal day. The clientele includes regulars who come in for the incomparable sangria as well as out-of-towners looking for an authentic experience without having to fork over a week's wages. The menu includes typical Spanish dishes laden with fish, squid, mussels and other forms of seafood.

Casa Galicia

Flameco dancing 2087 St-Denis Street
(Near Ontario)
Montreal, QC H2X 3K8
Canada
+1 514 843 6698
http://www.casagaliciamontreal... The staff is friendly, the décor appealing, and the food tantalizingly Spanish. The many regular customers wash down their paella or surf and turf combinations with a pitcher of fresh sangria, which is arguably the best in Montreal. Luncheon specials are moderately priced for items such as Lamb on a Skewer and filet of sole. The table d'hôte features 16 dishes every evening. Spanish wines available are quite impressive. Entertainment includes a Flamenco show on weekends.

Casa Tapas

Social and reasonably priced 266 Rachel St East
(Near Henri-Julien)
Montreal, QC H2W 1E6
Canada
+1 514 848 1063 One of the best Spanish bistros in Montreal, this cozy little restaurant has a traditional décor and menu. Settle into the tightly packed tables or take a seat at the bar to indulge in a huge selection of well prepared tapas: vegetarians can feast on mushrooms marinated in garlic, or stuffed eggplant, while seafood and meat options make use of shrimp, mussels, calamari, chicken, rabbit and various sausages. Three fabulous paellas—vegetanaria, valenciana (chicken, chorizo sausage and mussels) and marisco (seafood)—are the house specialty.

Chablis

Cozy and delicious 1639 St Hubert
(Near de Maisonneuve)
Montreal, QC H2L 3Z1
Canada
+1 514 523 0053 Located within the turn-of-the-century complex in the Village (The) that also includes the Maison Chablis hotel, this restaurant combines classic French and Spanish cuisine as prepared by Elias Outomuro, an award-winning chef from the hotel-restaurant schools of Europe. The service is exceptional and so are the prices. Whether it's paellas or lamb chops, the dishes all exhibit a fine touch.

Club Espagnol de Quebec

Authentic and lively 4388 St. Laurent Boulevard
Montreal, QC H2W 1Z5
Canada
+1 514 849 1737 / +1 514 842 6301
http://www.boulevardsaintlaure... Located in a huge hall on the second floor of a nondescript building on The Main, this isn't so much a restaurant as a gathering spot for Montreal's Spanish community. As you'd expect, the food is authentic and the atmosphere lively. Dishes include anchovies in vinaigrette, Spanish Omelette, fried calamari, mussels in tomato sauce and Paella Valenciana. Service is exceptional and prompt. Dinner for two, excluding wine or tip, comes to around CAD40. Cash only.

Upstairs Jazz Club

Cozy jazz venue 1254 Mackay Street
(Near Ste-Catherine)
Montreal, QC H3G 2H4
Canada
+1 514 931 6808
http://www.upstairsjazz.com/ Perhaps Montreal's finest small jazz venue, this tiny club packs them in for well-known locals and visiting groups. Done up in classic jazz-club style, with posters of the greats festooning the walls, this downtown hideaway is perfect for dinner, a night on the town or both. The menu, under the stewardship of chef Juan Barros, features highlights such as Asturias Rack of Lamb, and Pappardelle Verona pasta with roasted chicken and garlic. There are occasional cover charges for major concerts.
