Hi all! Would you recommend this place for a business lunch? Is it usually busy, or can I just show up and get a table during lunch hour? Would you recommend to make reservations? Thanks a lot!

Too noisy for a business lunch

In April, we are traveling with a person who is allergic to corn, gluten/wheat and dairy. Is there anything on your menu that is safe for her to eat?

My girlfriend is allergic to gluten and we are able to eat over there. They do have some dairy free options. I would try to send them an e-mail or text on Instagram to see if they have some options that includes everything at the same time.

Should I make a reservation for two people this afternoon? Or is there usually room?

No we are queuing but the service is fast

This place is as good in winter as it is in summer. Fantastic food to meet the needs and tastes of anyone in your party, from great vegan options to something for the meat eaters. As well as great food, Venice as a really relaxed vibe and the all of the staff were extremely nice.

Good spot in the old port to go for lunch or dinner. Added bonus that it’s next to several parking lots as parking in the old port can be hard to find. We tried the shrimp poke bowl and shrimp taco. Both dishes came out quickly and both were good, the poke bowl was pretty big and definitely filling.

Visiting Montreal for few days, and came back here second time since last year. We got Tuna Poke Bowl and Salmon Poke Bowl both with avocado added, and it is one of the best poke bowls I've ever had.Portions are huge, the place is trendy and hip (but not too loud), servers are friendly, and fairly priced for the portion. Definitely my favourite spot in Montreal, and can't wait to come back here next time!

Funky beach vibe. Meant to remind you of the type of restos in Cali. Staff really nice and down to earth, no attitude. Many regulars and I see why. Guac and tortilla starter was delicious. Great tasting salads, pizzas, tacos and poke bowls. Great brunch menu and desserts!

Food was very tasty. Waiters were very friendly and helpful. Portions were ok I would have preferred to have an additional taco for the price they cost or at least have a side included. The rest was great.

I got the salmon Poke bowl, it seemed like one of their most popular items. It was good but I wish that they could incorporate more variety of ingredients into other poke bowls that have salmon in them, maybe mango or something, other than a bunch of lettuce. Other than that I have no complaints, it’s in nice location with indoor and outdoor seating, and the service was great.

Very impressed with Venice! The decor inside was super cute, I loved it! I ordered the fish tacos, they were very good, I was expecting fried fish but it was still very good! We also ordered the Korean beef tacos which were soooo delicious. Overall, we were satisfied with our meal. I’d definitely go back.

The vibe and atmosphere are excellent. If your are looking for something new, this is the place. It’s worth a detour. And please do not forget their desserts.

This is one of my favourite places to go to for a casual dinner or lunch. It has a great vibe and the poke bowls are some of the best in Montreal. Trust, I’ve tried a lot. Prices are mid to mid-high so just be ready.

Got the Indian power bowl. Sooooo good. I normal don't like chick peas but these were nice and soft and went really went with everything! Loved the day potato combination with the coconut rice. Awesome trading healthy food for a vegetarian! Service was friendly, not the most attentive in my experience, but very pleasant.

Summary: Great service, food, and ambience. Highly recommend this place!In the midst of Old Montreal, this place provides a nice chill place to sit down and enjoy some food. The service was great and friendly. They gladly provided recommendations on what to order and we definitely enjoyed what we ate.The ambience tries to replicate eating outside near the beach. I sat near the open gap acting as a window and it was fun seeing pedestrians walking outside behind me. Food - I got Korean Beef Tacos. The meat had a great flavour to it and the lime made things much better. However, it was not as filling as I thought it would be, so I would probably have ordered something under their bowl section of the menu.

The ambiance really makes it feel like you’re in California (and it’s incredibly instagrammable) and my tofu poke bowl was generously portioned and delicious. The only thing I didn’t love was the limited selection of cocktails and the margarita I had, which I found too salty. I would definitely come back to try some of the other bowls on the menu in the future.

I love the atmosphere and healthy options! The Healthy Green Smoothie (banana, spinach, kale, matcha, and cashew milk) was surprisingly delicious. I've yet to recreate the exact flavour on my own at home. There are many vegetarian meal options. I had the Butternut Squash Coconut soup and Tofu Poke bowl. Yum! I would prefer a non sweet and sour sauce option for the vegetarian Poke though. The hostess was excellent keeping us updated about the wait for our group of 6 table (no wait for 2-4 people). She even offered to get us water while we waited. The wait staff were also very helpful and friendly, despite my friend's many silly questions 😂

Service and decor is really great. But found the food (specially avocado toast) lacking in flavour.Staff was very attentive and gave us some extras to make our ricotta brioche tastier, that's really appreciated. But for a place in Montreal with so many 5 star ratings I expected more.

Pros: nice and friendly staff. Great atmosphere, very cozy.Cons: 20 minute wait to get a table (The restaurant does not have a organized system to deal with customers waiting for a seat). On top of the 20 minute wait for a seat there was a 40 minute wait for tacos and guacamole. The restaurant is located in tourist area, they should definitely work on the service time so people aren't waiting 1 hour for food.

One of us took the salmon poke bowl, which was really good! The salmon was melting fresh, and the mix of flavours in the bowl was great! And that's about it. I tried the asian bowl, which was really colorful and fun at presentation, but tasted ok, nothing more. Plus, the sauce was too salty, so it covered the fresh flavours of the bowl.The other thing is that 9$ is way too expensive for a bottled smoothie. We all expected freshly made smoothies, which are less expensive and better tasting elsewhere. So it's a cute little place, with a nice decor and good ambiance. The service was great too. But unfortunately, I wouldn't go back for the food.

One of the best food experiences we’ve had in a while! We ordered the tuna poke bowl and the chicken burger with sweet potatoes - picked up from the resto. It was absolutely mouth-watering! Staff was super friendly and the service was great. Pretty sure we’re going to become regulars at this spot! Thanks Venice, definitely worth a 5 star 🌟
