Old Montréal

LoginSave

Celebrated Catalan chef Carles Abellan brings a bit of Barcelona magic to the New World with this outstanding addition to Old Montréal – his first foray outside of Spain. Mouthwatering dishes include razor clams, garlic shrimp, Galician-style octopus and Iberian ham, as well as heartier plates of fideua (Catalan-style paella).

The prix-fixe three-course lunch ($22) menu is a great way to sample the goods.

The two-level dining room boasts an artful, modernist aesthetic, with blond woods, delicate wrought-iron details and tube-like chandeliers.
