If you’re looking for a brunch spot with a spacious patio, Restaurant Zargum is definitely for you. Never before did I consider ordering a waffle topped with mini Oreo cookies drizzled with chocolate sauce, but now I can say that I’ve seen it all.
1825 Rue Fleury Est
Pasta Bar Cantina
If you grew up in an Italian family, chances are you don’t often find yourself impressed by commercial Italian food. And rightfully so! When you are spoiled by such greatness and exposed to flavourful dishes made with love and passion, not just any sauce will satisfy.
Thankfully, Central District is home to a family-run pasta bar. This cantina-style restaurant has everything you could possibly be craving (less the dessert, which can be purchased afterwards down the street at Cafe Gentile).
230 Rue Chabanel O.
Sushi Ami
1469 Fleury E.
Sushi is something we take very seriously in the office, so you can bet that only the good stuff gets delivered through our doors. While local Montreal sushi is tough to come by when compared to the good stuff in Van City, this is a definite gem for the neighbourhood.
Le Chien Rose
Les Cavistes
This bistro restaurant and wine bar is located in the heart of Ahuntsic Cartierville and Central District. Renowned for their imported wines that bear exclusivity to the resto and are not sold at the SAQ, Les Cavistes offers beautifully crafted lunch dinner and menu items complimented by the wine pairings.
While the wines are not sold at the SAQ, you can purchase your favourite bottle and have it added to your bill, should you fall in love with a particular vintage.
196, rue Fleury O.
La Molisana
Craving some good Italian food but don’t want to wander far from home? Well if you’re lucky enough to live in the neighbourhood, La Molisana is the spot for you! In addition to serving up some of the finest Italian cuisines, the good folks at La Molisana also offer pasta making courses! Now there’s something you can bring home with you that doesn’t some in a doggy bag.
1014 Rue Fleury E.
La Bete a Pain
Aux Cinq Parfums
This Asian fusion restaurant boasts a mouth-watering menu that will please even the most fickle foodie.
9732 Rue Birnam
Restaurant Nguyen
This casual restaurant is a not-so-hidden gem in DCMTL. Located on the trendy Promenade Fleury, Restaurant Nguyen is intimate and has a menu that will leave you delightfully surprised. Don’t forget to bring your own wine, and of course, a healthy appetite.
