SeaSalt Restaurant is a dapper, sleek, bistro offering exquisite fare, including oysters, and ceviches plus a stylish bar, and a patio on Place Royale.

Seasalt is located in the heart of the Old Port of Montreal in a historic edifice with lots of history.

If you want to have a meal experiencing all the action of Old Montreal then choose the grandiose terrace surrounded by greenery. If you want to experience a chic resto-bar experience then go inside the restaurant.

Seasalt Restaurant merges South American and Mediterranean cuisines using fresh and local products. The ambiance is accentuated with amazing service, a vibrant atmosphere, and a c’est la vie attitude.

We are greeted by the friendly manager who greets and seats us and talks about the restaurant, the food, and the specials.

Jean has a Coke and I order two glasses of INSOLITE 2019. Franck and Betty Millet own a 20-hectare domain in bue and the ‘Cuvee Insolite’ is the premium white wine with a clean and crisp palate, medium-bodied, and the right accompaniment to the shellfish bonanza we are going to experience. It is served at the right temperature and it makes me hungry.

Jean has the Mussels of the Day, I have the Grilled Octopus and Debbie has the Clam Bake.

The mussels are perfect with the right amount of white wine and garlic with decadent fries. The bake has half a lobster, clams, mussels, corn, potatoes, and chorizo all cooked to taste amazing. The octopus comes with quinoa and chickpea salad and baby arugula.

If you want mussel shucked in front of you, the expert puts on quite a display for you.

It is time for dessert and the waiter recommends the Creme Brule. I have to be honest here. It is one of the best Creme Brule I have had in my life. We have three helpings.

I give this place top marks for the atmosphere, vibe, food, service, drinks and really helping me have a great time.
