Good food: Parc in and around St Viateur, St Joseph?

[smack]

Hey there, trying to find a few places, not crazy pricy, for a meal this week in and around Parc Avenue, around the St Viateur, St Joseph area. So many closures, so much construction, hard to keep track of what is still in operation, so any help much appreciated.

If you are on a cake diet, Cocoa Locale is not too far.

Thanks for all the suggestions - we went to Damas and had a fabulous Syrian meal. "A tiny bit further afield" doesn't work when it's this cold, but we will add Biarritz to the list when it gets warmer.

A tiny bit further afield would be Bistro Biarritz; have had some excellent meals there. And an oyster special from 5 to 7 on weeknights. St-Laurent at Villeneuve.

Also wanted to add Terrasse Lafayette on Villenueve. BYOW, good food, prices and portions.

I would say pretty good food and huge portions. It's nothing extraordinary but IMO a good, friendly neighbourhood place.

Thanks for all the suggestions. What a great list to choose from.

Has anyone eaten at Mile End Churrascaria? (Rôtisserie)

100, rue St-Viateur O. (coin St-Urbain)
Montréal, QC, H2T 2L1 Metro Laurier

It is located at 100 St-Viateur West, at the southwestern corner of St-Viateur and St-Urbain. Attractive place. Don't know anything about the quality of their grilled chicken and other Portuguese dishes.

Had a very decent poutine there, with chicken & chorizo on top. From what I could tell the chicken seemed tasty but I haven't had it on its own.

I was just thinking of it because it is an attractive space, with the gleaming churrascaria equipment and low-key but well-done décor, and it is food most people like (though I doubt it is very vegetarian-friendly, unlike Kaza Maza and I presume Damas). But I haven't happened to eat there yet.

Damas, Kaza Maza, La Buvette Chez Simone, Lemeac, Levesque, ...

I actually had a pretty decent meal at Voro last week (Fairmont and Jeanne Mance). It wasn't exceptional, but the cocktails were delicious and prices were reasonable. I really love the room, too.
