LOV - Montréal

The food and atmosphere at this restaurant is something I dream about. The natural vibes of being in nature transports me to being on vacation. The food and drinks were nothing short of outstanding. Well worth the drive from ottawa. A drive I have made more than once with intent to visit again <3

The decor throughout the restaurant and in the private event room is lovely! I've been to LOV in Brossard and Laval, and I remember being impressed by the food. Although the food at LOV de la Montagne was very good, it lacked the finesse that I was expecting. For example, my risotto was overly salty. Also, two people in our group felt a bit sick afterward.

Don’t judge a book by its cover. This place looks gorgeous but I was so disappointed with the food. Came in late and wanted to have something light and healthy, ordered the caprese salad (unbelievably small and literally had one tiny piece of cheese for 15$ or so) and the Cesar salad which has nothing to do with a Cesar salad and had no sauce. The service was really good though and the ambience was nice but the food was a huge disappointment.

The wee barista was incredible. Can’t recall her name (ugh! Someone will know Saturday brunch on Sept 3/22) but she “made” the best impression of a great plant based place. Great atmosphere, and tasty food. Definitely will come back when in town again.

We had a reservation at 10:30am for brunch on July 17th. The experience walking in was already a disappointment compared to being here 4 years ago. I was last here on a girls trip and had an amazing time so I wanted to bring my family (it was their first time in Canada). The LOV picture wall was withered and not maintained. There was no one to help us at the front. We were wondering if the restaurant was even open. Everyone was at the bar and the whole place was dimly lit. Ryan, our server finally came and seated us and we requested a table at the back where there was more light. Unfortunately this table was not very clean. There were crumbs all over the seat and it was dirty with stains. I gave some stars because our servers were attentive and checked on us and made sure we had our water. The food aesthetically looked good. lThe sweet waffles tasted great, however the tofu Benedict was overly salted. There was also a lack of AC or ventilation so we were left sweating by the end of our meal.
