Good fusion food - Edit
Tasty food and nice cocktails
Read moreWe tried salmon tartar, i would have added some spice, perhaps wasabi cream or miso to it.
The mushroom sandwich was tasty, and plenty umami.
The palm calamari, very tasty. These starters were all good.
The fish tacos were good as well, good consistency and flavor.
The salmon bagel was also good but served in 2 halves, not sure if you were meant to put it together yourself? Or eat 1 half with no salmon? The fried capers were a bit fun but i think some additional spice would help such as ginger, wasabi, pepper, horseradish.
Deserts brownie (i didnt care for the rasberry jam) the creme brule was good but somewhat burnt.
Awesome cocktails.

Good vegan friendly spot - Edit
So It is no longer entirely vegan but the food is good and there are still plenty vegan options. Today I had the vegan cheese burger and fries with vegan mayo and it was spot on

Brunch - Edit
Super beau restaurant, bien situé. On y est allé pour le brunch et avons pris le tofu bénédictine, un latté et le smoothie Berry blast.
Read moreTofu bénédictine très bon, seul point à mentionner : plus de sauce serait apprécié, car pas autant de sauce que sur la photo du menu sur le site, surtout que le pain est sec sous la tomate. Autrement, la petite salade et les patates sont très bonnes.
Pros: Tofu bénédictine, Décoration, Employée très sympathique
Cons: Un peu sec

Delicious and good service - Edit
The food was creative and tasty loved the carrot soup. I let my boyfriend choose the small plates for us to share and we ended up with too much fried food but it was good especially the vegan calamari.

Delicious vegan brunch - Edit
Who doesn’t love a vegan brunch? The menu looked so good that it was hard to choose! I ended up getting the lux bagel and golden latte, and my friend got the curry and a pear mimosa. It was all delicious!

Very good! - Edit
This charming and fancy restaurant was great! I ordered their LOV coconut curry which was delicious. I only wish they would include more protein to the menu. #Veganuary

Always delicious (but I wish they had more options) - Edit
Food at LOV is always delicious, and the atmosphere is great. I highly recommend it to any tourist in Montreal. (I only wish they had more gluten-free options and more soy-free options, to incentivize people to come back more often.)

Tasty food with great ambiance - Edit
My husband, my child, and I shared a Big LOV burger, the fried mushroom burger, lentil soup, and fries. The Big LOV burger was amazing and one of the best burgers we’ve had. The soup was also delicious. The mushroom burger was not great, cooked a bit too much and not super flavourful. The food is pricey but the restaurant has great ambience, the staff was super nice, and we really enjoyed most of our meal. We did not have a reservation for lunch and had no issue getting a table but they do close between lunch and dinner.

A lovely little restaurant in Montréal - Edit
My boyfriend and I were visiting Montréal and were thrilled to discover LOV McGill a few blocks from our hotel. We ate there Thursday evening after checking into our hotel" We enjoyed a Forest Crostini, toasted bread with mushrooms as a starter and then got our entrees. As is sometimes the case, I liked my boyfriend's mushroom risotto more than my mushroom "burger" (fried oyster mushrooms), and he liked mine, so we switched. It's also not uncommon for us to switch dishes while we're eating. I also appreciate that they have lovely creative mocktails since I avoid alcohol. We enjoyed our experience so much we made reservations then and there for Sunday so we could have a quick brunch before we had to leave for the airport.
Read moreFor brunch, I got the tofu benedict, which was pretty good if a bit unusual. The vegan benedicts I've had before usually scramble the tofu but LOV used breaded and sliced tofu instead. My boyfriend got the Lux Bagel that oddly had lemon slices on it (I would expect lemon to be on the side to make it easy to squeeze over the dish). I think my favorite part of brunch was the perfectly cooked home fries made of potatoes grown in Québec.
I don't know when I'll get back to Montréal, but when I do, I plan to go back to LOV.
Pros: all vegan, friendly service, potatoes are very good
Cons: expensive

LOVed it - Edit
Incredibly delicious and creative food in a beautifully decorated restaurant.
Read moreI was impressed with pretty much everything. I recommend the mushroom risotto and the poached pear! I haven't tried the cocktails but my friends said they were great.
Unfortunately they were out of crème brûlée the night I went, so I'll have to go back.

Delicious dinner, relaxed vibe, great space - Edit
We had Beet tartare on smashed avocado with taro chips to start. Our server suggested the large size to share, and it was a good call. It was fantastic! Then we both had house-made vegan patty cheeseburgers with Quebec fries. I asked for the Kimchi fries, and they were amazing. Everything I saw on other tables looked good, too. Very nice staff, great decor.
