Montreal Paella delivers on a bold promise: some of the best paella in town. Chef Mariano Fernández—born in Barcelona, raised in Valencia—brings decades of experience and an abiding love for rice culture to every pan that leaves his kitchen. Opened in 2019 with his partner Tamera Manzur, each paella at this place is cooked in a house-made broth, and the rice is imported directly from Valencia to capture the soul of Spain’s most iconic dish.
Favourites include the traditional Paella Valenciana with rabbit, chicken, and beans, or the seafood-forward Paella de Mariscos with shrimp, mussels, and calamari.
Beyond paella, the menu offers tapas inspired by regions across Spain, a thoughtful drink list of sangria, wine, and cocktails, and a cozy dining room filled with nods to Fernández’s journey.
