Our waiter was very patient and helpful, the food was elegantly prepared and excellent amid delightful dinner music. My vegetarian dish was even healthy. The soup portion was generous and the orange cake with chocolate was a perfect ending. It was the highlight of my evening and maybe Montreal, and that's saying a lot since I performed internationally for the first time the night before. Oooh, and the digestif!
Wow, what a lucky McGill graduate dinner. Owner Carlos sat down at the table with us, every waiter and waitress was personal and friendly, and the food was trop excellent! Just wow.

I came here as part of an invite. The service was fantastic and the vibes were cool. I tried some tapas, including Spanish omelette, cod fritters, and chorizo stuffed dates. Pretty yummy! My fave bite of the night was the ceviche (amazing), along with the slow-cooked lamb main.
Unfortunately, the star of the night - the paella - had some overcooked seafood, probably because of the huge quantity they made for the special night. The presentation of the paella was a showstopper for sure, and the flavour of the saffron rice mixing in with the seafood was decadent.
We ended the night with 2 dessert choices, one featuring strawberries and pink peppercorns, while the other was an orange gateau. To be honest, I disliked both desserts, with the gateau being bland, while the pink peppercorns were so obnoxious, they left a bad taste in my mouth!
I had a wonderful time with great service and presentation but the food was just not for me... The restaurant itself is located in the Old Port and perfect for date night since it's trendy but not too fancy.
While we didn't have a reservation, we were warmly welcomed and seated at a lovely table. Moreover, while, initially there were just two of us, our party grew to five and the restaurant amiably accommodated us. The menu is Basque-Catalan and there was a very good selection. I had a seafood pasta that was absolutely delicious with a very generous selection of shellfish. The meals of all my fellow diners looked great too and the consensus was that the meals were excellent. All in all, the restaurant offered delicious food, wine, and excellent service. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Les Pyrenees.
The service was wonderful. This is a family owned and run restaurant. I ordered the seafood pasta and was delighted. My husband ordered the pork stew and devoured it. We are not easily pleased because we come from New Orleans where food is always great.

Amazing Food & Service!. We came across this quaint restaurant while walking late (about 10pm) along the streets in Old Montreal. When we stopped to read the menu, the server from inside stepped out the door and asked if we had any questions about the menu, which we thought was very considerate. After choosing to give it a try, we were greeted with superb service and a relaxing atmosphere. The salad and soup appetizers were both delicious, large portions as well, found it difficult to finish them and leave room for the rest of a meal! The chicken and steak plates we enjoyed as well as a light fruit & puff pastry dessert. The entire meal was enjoyable and not rushed by our server, who gave us lots of time between courses to digest even though we were the only remaining customers of the evening. Each dish was presented beautifully, and tasted as good as it looked!
We appreciated the fine service and incredible meal we experienced at this restaurant and would highly recommend it to anyone, we look forward to returning to enjoy another evening!
All-around pretty good!. I went to Les Pyrenees just as it opened at 4pm on a Sunday. I found the service very pleasant and the food excellent. Having been to a couple of other upscale restaurants in Montreal where servings are miniscule, I was happy to find appropriate-sized servings here. I had the king-sized prawns with squid turret followed by the orange cake (with berries) that comes with melted chocolate for dipping (the desert being a suggestion from the waiter). Quality was very good.
Back to Les Pyrénnées. It’s always nice to return to Les Pyrénnées in Montreal. There are many fine restaurants In the Old Port, but when you know exactly how good a place will be, it brings you back.
An almost perfect recent meal for two: A couple of glasses of wine each; cauliflower and turnip soup / Catalan-style tapas. Two fish dishes - one cod and the other mackerel. Dessert of Catalan orange cake/ crème brùlée. Coffee and a complimentary dessert wine to finish.
The service was as we remembered – knowledgeable and reserved. One small complaint I would mention (though I didn’t share it with the restaurant, so it couldn’t have been too important!) was that the my hot food was served on unheated plates. Please review this annoying practice, LP.
I would recommend the restaurant unreservedly – even if you only stop in and have the orange cake for dessert, it will be a worthwhile visit!
Very good food. I had duck and scallops. Service was informative, professional and near perfect. No interrupting to ask if you enjoyed the food. I'd return to try the rest of the menu. Open at 5 pm. Which means time to eat before the theatre.
We came across this little gem after walking around the city. Excellent service and brilliant food. It can be a bit pricey but it is very very good value for money. The paella was tasty and pretty big! Highly recommend it.

A GEM in Old Montreal. Lovely place... wonderful ambience. They have a very extensive menu. Was there as a group of four and two of us tried their set dinners and two ordered a la carte. Shared muscles to starts. VERY good soup came with the muscles- dipped bread into it.
Set dinner appitizers, tried puff pastry and the cold tomato soup... both very delicious! The soup was very refreshing, not heavy at all.
Main courses... the duck breast wasn't great, too dry. Ordered stuffed squids, but they messed up my order and made grilled calamari instead. They gave me that main too, on the house. OMG was it delicious!!! I don't even recall seeing this dish on the menu! Then came my stuffed squids, which also AMAZING! Think it was pork inside with herbs. Both dishes came with alot of grilled vegetables.
Since i had two mains i was too full to have their dark chocolate cake. so i had their red berries bavarois. I'm not a huge mousse person, but i liked this one alot. Very light and not too sweet. Can taste the freshness of the berries, which went great with my coffee.
Definitely try this restaurant if you are going to Montreal!!!
Wonderfull little Spot !!!. Nice discovery walking in old montreal,
small beautifull restaurant with spanish cuisine
with will have your taste buds wanting more...
It is worth the visit.
Wonderfull experience and staff.
I had been craving for Spanish food for 6 months and wouldn’t regret come here! The staff were very friendly. Food was excellent! Desserts were super delicious as well. I will definitely come back next time.
My husband and I visited Les Pyrénées restaurant for our anniversary on a Saturday night. We actually walked right by it at first as it is an unassuming place with simple and clean decor. Our server was exceptionally friendly, funny, and trilingual. I think we impressed him with how much we consumed. We ordered the goat cheese salad, the paella, calamari, braised lamb, and a bottle of wine. We also split a delicious dessert of stuffed profiteroles. Every bite was heavenly, you could taste the love put in the food. Presentation was excellent, beautiful and unpretentious. The ingredients were fresh and well paired. We adored every item we ordered and found it fairly priced considering the level of quality. I would (and have) recommend this place to anyone who wants a taste of true Catalonia in the beautiful old port of Montréal. Five stars without question. We will certainly be back.
Came in off the street and was immediately seated. Staff was attentive and regularly stopped by to attend to my needs. My meal was absolutely delicious from the French onion soup, to the desert. Everything was cooked perfectly and seasoned well. Quaint restaurant with huge flavor
Came here on a Christmas dinner. Place was easy to reserve (despite the $20 per head reservation deposit [you will get it back]). I appreciated the minor service perks such as the coat check, very nice to not have to eat too bundled up.
The paella and risotto, while enjoyable, was a bit too oily for my tastes, and I personally was not a fan. I did like it, but it wasn’t mind blowing.
The French onion soup was delicious, and along with the complimentary bread, were the most memorable parts of the meal.
The food was great, definitely one time visit worth. It was -10 C and we had french onion soup which was great. The seared scallops starter is also great. The service was great as well but 4 stars only because it felt a little rushed for a place which is fine dine. Server came to collect my plate before I was done, LOL... but overall definitely worth a visit.
Fantastic Catalan restaurant. Good menu of delicious dishes and drinks. Duck leg was very tasty and the paella was fantastic, and large enough for two to share. French onion soup was also well done and not too salty. Overall a great place for some awesome food.
Food here was excellent, and the service was as well! We really enjoyed the mixed meat plate, as well as many of the other dishes we tried. The ambience was also nice, a bit quaint and tight, but still enjoyable.
