Greek restaurant located in Le Cantlie Hotel, I would say probably one of the best Greek restaurant I’ve been to. The atmosphere was outstanding, and kept getting better. DJ was on fire; service was perfect - very friendly people.The food was perfectly made; very tasty and no need to say anything about the drinks.Highly recommended for group parties
Food and service were exquisite. I suggest getting starters and sharing and then having a main dish. Very very good.

Zante was amazing. The hostess and our Italian bartender were charming, attentive, and very engaging. The food was incredible! The zucchini appetizer, the lamb chops, and most importantly, the grilled chicken, were all delightful.

Very fortunate to have come across Zante during our trip to Montréal. During our dinner the service was excellent and the food was outstanding. My wife had the grilled salmon and I had the swordfish. Bothe were cooked perfectly. The swordfish might be the best I’ve ever had in a restaurant.Would highly recommend and will return on our next visit to Montreal.

I had an amazingly delicious supper at Zante on Monday night. Our server, Juliano made the perfect wine and food recommendations. I asked for a dry white wine and he recommended a chardonnay from South Africa, I wasn't sure about it, so he offered a taster sample and I absolutely fell in love with it. I had 4 glasses by the end of the night. As for food, everything on the menu is cooked to perfection and served beautifully. My friend and I had the saganaki and crab cakes to start, which were both perfect starter portions to share. The saganaki was fresh and fried perfectly without being too oily. The crab cakes were cooked and seasoned just right. Then we moved on to the chilean sea bass with a greek salad side that was recommended again by Juliano. My friend and I were in heaven! Every bite of the chilean sea bass just melted in my mouth. The greek salad was incredible with fresh tomatoes, cucumbers, red and yellow peppers and red onions, with just the right amount of dressing. It was a perfect compliment to the Chilean sea bass. We finished off with a plate of feta and olives. Again, the feta and olives were incredibly fresh and well seasoned and served perfectly. All prices are extremely reasonable considering the quality and care that goes into preparing each dish. If the delicious food, wine and impeccable service from Juliano wasn't enough, the ambiance created by Alexei's absolutely fantastic playlist of 90s hip hop and R&B was the perfect background music to keep me grooving all night. The music was played at a perfect volume. Not too loud, but just enough so I was able to catch each song and relive some of my most treasured memories associated to that particular track. He played every one of my favorite songs from that era. From The Pharcyde to Sade to Toni Braxton and Janet Jackson and many more. This man knows his music and knows how to create a mood. The lighting in the restaurant is dim, but only dim enough to feel as if my friend and I were in our own little world. There was still enough light for us to see eachother and to admire the food on the table. The tables are nicely set apart from eachother too so I never felt like I was lacking in privacy, even when the restaurant was full. Just before my friend and I were about to leave another string of favorite songs were playing so we asked Juliano if he could makes us some specialty coffees. We asked for Brazilian coffees and we were not disappointed at all. The coffee was freshly brewed and delicious, and Juliano added a nice amount of whipped cream and coffee bean garnish. After the coffee it was time to leave, but I truly cannot wait to go back. I also want to say thank you to the other servers who were also passing by our table, making sure we had everything we needed. Zante has staff that truly cares about their dinner guests and want them to have the best experience possible. It really shows that they strive to exceed their guest's expectations. And from my experience they definitely achieved that. I highly recommend trying this restaurant if you haven't already. I know I'm counting the days until I can go back!
