Invitation V

Old Montréal


A game-changer in the world of vegan cuisine, Invitation V serves up creative, beautifully presented dishes in an elegant dining room of white brick and light woods. Start with butternut squash and roasted-red-pepper soup and a round of mushroom satay with peanut sauce, before moving onto curry stew with jasmine rice or a tempeh burger with sweet-potato fries.

The founders profess a strong commitment to sustainability and use organic, locally sourced products where possible. Good brunches, too.
