OLE Tapas

I discovered this gem by pure chance. I’ve been twice already. It’s a must. The food is truly Spaniard, the chef is amazing, great human and the service exceptional. You can bring kids, they will be spoiled.

Delicious Spanish tapas!! Everything was so delicious, maybe not exactly how some of it would be in Spain, but close enough and so tasty nonetheless. Our waiter was super friendly and helpful. Gorgeous terrace on the side of the canal Lachine.

Beautiful terrasse location and atmosphere. Had a good time chatting while waiting for the food to arrive. The paella took a little more time to prepare but we enjoyed the appetizers. Food was delicious and smelled amazing. Will come back again if the occasion arises.

The atmosphere and music was just gorgeous, festive and a delight! The food was quite delicious and when 1sr received looks like a small portion but as you eat you realize you have become very full and it feels wonderful! The flavours are very good and subtle and my partner’s favourite was the octopus and mine were the meatballs and the mushrooms! The beautiful channel of the water surround the restaurant was beautiful. A great place for a date!

Ole Tapas is one of the best Spanish restaurants we've discovered in Montreal. This hidden gem offers authentic cuisine and warm hospitality, with a stunning waterfront view. We enjoyed a variety of flavorful tapas, including crispy patatas bravas, Pintxos De Pollo, and Champiñones Al Ajillo, but the standout was the saffron-rich paella, packed with fresh shrimp, mussels, and calamari. The attentive service catered to our dietary needs, including halal meat options. The chef personally visited our table, sharing his passion for the food and generously gifting us homemade tortas to take home. Ole Tapas is a must-visit for anyone craving authentic Spanish flavors.

This restaurant has a really nice atmosphere. I would really go there specifically for their paella. They warn you on the menu beforehand that there is a 30-40 minute wait to prepare it as everything is made fresh. However, the wait is definitely worth it! Their coffee is apparently really good but unfortunately, their machine is currently out of order. So we had a basic filter coffee which really wasn’t something special. The service was great, and the staff are overly friendly! The manager is a little bit more on edge than her staff, and my mother noticed it too, but it’s understandable as she doesn’t want people entering and leaving from the back of the restaurant. So if you come with a bike, maybe have a lock on hand to lock it on a lamp post and keep an eye on it or leave it on a bike rack if you have one installed on your car. However, they made an exception this one time which was really nice of them as we only ever go there when we bike together. Besides that, it was definitely a special experience that should be tried at least once!

Shrimp dish not as described or photo in menu. They were argentina shrimp... very salty and not what I had previously had 2 yrs ago from here. Some of the cured meats were off in taste. Fast and great service.

Delicious seafood paella and excellent service! It was a perfect day enjoying the terrace by the canal. Highly recommend OLE Tapas for a relaxing and flavorful dining experience.

We grabbed lunch here the other day. The pitcher of sangria was huge! My favorite dish was the Iberico ham croquettes (amazingly creamy interior with a light crispy exterior, very well executed) while the bf and his parents liked the boquerones best (also really good). The blood sausage dish was also surprisingly good (although probably didn't need the gratin on top). Would have liked the paella mariscos to be crispier but at least the seafood flavor was good. View of the water when dining on the terrace although the tarps that were up obstructed it a little bit. Not sure if the tarps are always up or if it was because of the rain forecast. There was a sudden (although expected) downpour after we finished lunch and were walking around for a bit.

Waterside terrace. Stunning location. Family business. Excellent service. Amazing food & beverage. Go!

Went to this restaurant for the first time was always curious because I love paella. please don't order this dish it was so dry over cooked and not hot but lukewarm. Also the plate with cold cuts and cheese the coldcuts were greasy disgusting so was their cheese! i will never go there again too awful!!! Waitress annoying always coming round telling us her life stories it was annoying!!!!!! I don't want to be disturbed when I'm eating please leave!

Le restaurant dispose d'une terrasse accueillante proche du canal. Nous y avons reçu un service attentionné mais il était dommage de se faire imposer 2h pour manger. Les plats traditionnels espagnols semblaient fidèles à leur pays d'origine. Mais il y avait un décalage flagrant dans le rapport qualité prix des différents éléments du menu. À titre d'exemple, l'entrée de pieuvre n'a pas coûté beaucoup moins cher que notre plat de paella à l'encre de seiche.

This is a great Spanish restaurant in Ste-Anne-de-Bellevue. The terrace has a beautiful waterfront, the staff is very nice and the food is delicious. I went to the restaurant with a Spanish person who often travels to Spain and he loved the food and found it very authentic. I highly recommend the croquetas de bacalao, the berberechos and the tabla Iberica. I would definitely go back if I get the chance to!

Excellent food and service! Their calamari is to die for also the chicken wings and their meatballs are exquisite your balls are very moist and have a great taste the best shrimp I've ever had who is there like I said the food is excellent and once a month during the summer on a Thursday They have an oyster brought in from a catering company called oysters in motion They must have the best oysters and also the freshest great sauce to Accompany the oysters the French classic sauce is to die for. It's a great restaurant To have a date night or get together with family or friends!

I love this restaurant. We went last night on the spur of the moment, not for the first time. The family who run it are always friendly. I've been alone and with a group of 10 for my birthday. Always deli food and a great atmosphere. I always get the pan con tomato and the cod fritters but every I've tried so far has been excellent. I don't drink but I've been told by people who are particular about these things the sangria is excellent.

This tapas restaurant is a quaint little bistro in the West island. All their products are imported from Spain. They have an extensive menu of different chacuteries, cheeses, olives and small plates. We were a group of 7 people and all our dishes were excellent. The seafood, the pinxtos, the cheese, breads and especially the sangria! The only issue was they were not able to accommodate a vegetarian Celiac even though they said it would not be a problem when I reserved over the phone. A plate came with bread on it and a vegetable paella tasted like seafood. The staff did apologize as we paid our bill but said they weren't aware of the allergy when we had mentioned it several times during the meal and over the phone when I reserved. Great restaurant but customers with allergeries may want to avoid.

What a nice place and the service was exceptional! I will definitely come back as the tapas our a nice size! The price is also very good and affordable. Nice Spanish wine list too!

Amazing food. Family-run restaurant. Fun vibe on weekends. Great wine list. High quality ingredients without the markups of restaurants downtown.

This tapas restaurant is an exceptional gem tucked in Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue. The variety of dishes available is excellent, the quality of the food is unmatched by any other tapas restaurant I have been to, and the service is wonderful. The owners, Margo and Francisco, are stellar hosts that welcomed me with open arms and made me feel at home. The menu is extensive and contains all the classic Spanish dishes from chorizo to paella, from croquettes to Galician octopus. If you are not sure what to get, Margo can help you find the perfect choices to fulfil whatever craving you may be having. The food is flavorful, fresh, and prepared to perfection. And their sangria is unrivalled! Ole Tapas is an authentic, amazing, and exquisite find in the West Island.
