The comforting nature of the atmosphere made its way into the dishes, which were unique to the neighbouring cuisines offered in Old Montreal. From the appetizer to the dessert, everything tasted amazing and had the right balance of flavours. I will definitely be back during my next trip to Montreal (if I can get a table fingers crossed).

I really wanted to love this place because the old-school decor is amazing and the location is…read moregreat. The borscht and pierogies were solid comfort food, perfect for a chilly day. But the mains felt a little heavy and plain, and it took forever to get our check at the end. It's a cool spot to try once for the unique vibes, but I probably wouldn't rush back anytime soon.

I absolutely love Zytynsky's Deli!!!! Being a big fan of Ukrainian food, had to check out…read moreZytynsky's during my visit to Montréal. A little out of the way from everything else had been doing, but wanted to check out this local institution. So glad I did! Did not expect Zytynsky's being in such an unpretentious brick building, but the magic was all inside. The store had an excellent curated selection of Eastern European gourmet items, all clearly presented with pride. Since I was on vacation, my goal was something to eat that day, but did spend some time looking at all the imported goodies. When I arrived, Angel, the extremely friendly woman behind the counter, was dealing with a couple of familiar faces to her. I overheard that she's been at the store for about 40 years, but I didn't realize that she was the owner and the founder was her grandfather. At my turn to order, I asked her for some suggestions. Ending up with a Smoked Meat Sandwich and a Polish Ham, Hungarian Salami and Cheese Sandwich. Also grabbed two cans of Ukrainian Zero Alcohol Beer. We chatted a little while she prepared my food, and she was absolutely charming. Able to enjoy both sandwiches upon return to my hotel. While for years been a big fan of Hungarian Salami (which was fantastic) the star on that sandwich was the amazing Polish Ham... maybe the best I've ever had! The sensational Smoked Meat Sandwich was perfect! Look forward to my next visit and thank you Angel for my memorable eats! Appreciate your support of Ukraine, too. Zytynsky's Deli is a remarkable place and recommend you check it out! Slava Ukraini!

It's a messy / nice place. Honestly, it requires a nice organization inside. All their mix products kind of threw me off. Too much all over the place. Personally, I am not knowledgeable about their polish products , and when you ask questions, sadly the worker, very young , didn't know either than being a good server. My sister took a polish sausage sandwich, and I took a vegetarian sandwich. They were strictly okay; I find he bread was not soft enough for my fragile teeth. The ingredients inside were delicious. I was happy to finally tried this place after all these times.

Was disappointed that I came too late, was there around 3 and donuts were finished. They carry different kinds of sandwiches, perogies and pastries and coffee all house made. I ordered the Polish Sausage plate. It came with the sausage, potato pancake and hot sauerkraut. Everything tasted well seasoned and familiar like your aunt made it. The prices were pretty affordable, was a good experience for me!

I'm not sure why this place is listed as Mediterranean or Italian. Also not sure why the name of…read morethe restaurant is Italian since the food, music and people are mainly Russian. You might have guessed, but I'm Ukrainian/Russian and have been coming here for years with my family for bigger events. This is a place where you need to be a group of people. They offer different menu combos where you share a multitude of absolutely delicious Russian dishes. There is also live music on Fridays and Saturdays and a dance floor. Every time I've been, the crowd was Eastern European. So In addition to Russian music, they might also play Polish, Ukrainian, Moldavian, Romanian, etc. songs. Although a bit pricey, it's a great place to discover Russian food and music.

I FEEL RIPPED OFF CHEATED STOLEN, lied to worse new years ever!!!!!! WASTE OF MONEY! Dont trust…read morethem and their management. They are money hungry individuals. Dont waste your time or your hard earned money. GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!!! AVOID AVOID AVOID AT ALL COST! Shame on them for doing what they have done! They charged 155$/pers for their new years party and they ended up seating us at a seperate room which was cold clusterphobic and disgustingly dirty there was no body to come and serve us we felt humiliated and we left right away. If we had of known this was our small table in a small basement with no heating we would have never even bothered. I cant even believe im giving this shit a 1 star. I cant even believe or even start to describe what had just happened to us. I frel like I'm back in USSR and treated like a peasant in a third world country AVOIDDDDDD I REPEAT AVOID!!!!!

Their menu incorporates Russian foods as well, but I went to take Georgian dishes only…read more 9.5/10 - The Khatchapouri (basically fired dough with melted cheese, a sort of cheese pie) was practically perfect. Oily, crispy and a perfectly melted stringy cheese inside. 8.5/10 - The Blintchiki with cabbage (fried crepes with cabbage stuffed inside) and a side of cream-cheese was extremely good, like some crispy, oily, cabbage roll. It might have been slightly too oily but otherwise great. 4/10 - The Tolma (basically rice-stuffed grape leaves) were not on par at all with the usual Lebanese version. It was very mushy, it fell apart and the spices were odd. 8/10 - The Borscht (beet soup with vegetables) was fantastic, however I personally prefer the version with dumplings inside (i.e. Polish version). It was nonetheless very good and heart warming, however it had a more pronounced vegetable-like flavor than what you'd get from the Polish version. ~/10 - The Khinkali (meat-stuffed dumplings), I'll withhold judgement because I personally don't tolerate meat that's fatty and I also don't tolerate cilantro. However, if you like a more fatty beef stuffed into dumplings with cilantro, that's for you. 8.5/10 - The Chuchkella (walnuts coated by some sweet chewy roux/candy shell), it's extremely good and it's one of those things you could cut up into pieces and snack on them all day long. It's a unique flavor I personally never had before but I could summarize it as sweet-coated walnuts. As for the ambiance, it was very cozy. It has that oldschool classical brown & red decor and the place is very small. Overall, I give it a 8/10. Worth it.

My husband and I decided to visit here as part of our vacation to Montreal. We both had never had…read moreGeorgian food and were looking for a new experience. Decor/Ambiance: The primary reason this is a 4 and not 5 star review is because the place is kinda tough on the eyes. It had some odd bright art and the background music was what we could only assume was a Russian pop music video station. Honestly, we ended up finding it charming but it will definitely raise a foodie's skeptical eyebrow. Wait staff: Out waitress was Russian, with a heavy accent and little reticent to suggest our dishes... but she knocked it of the park and beamed with pride over the food. There's really nothing like someone who cares about the place doing the serving. Food: So delicious. We can't speak to it's authenticity (first timers and all), but everything was delicious. I had the Chicken Kiev which came with a unique Georgian plum sauce that could make shoe leather delectable. My husband had a authentic Georgian beef dish (the name escapes me) cooked with garlic, spices and walnuts. It was also unique and delicious! We will definitely return in the event that we are back in Montreal.
