#BlackOwned: Black-owned restaurants in and around Montreal

restaurants appartenant à des membres de la communauté noire

Since we are a directory of gourmet addresses, we decided to create a list of restaurants owned by individuals in the Black community. Food is a political issue and as customers, our decisions speak for us. Encouraging entrepreneurs and restaurateurs of colour is a great way to support the fight against racial inequality and to show our support for the black community.

Montreal

Le Virunga: On Rachel Street East, Marie-José and Zoya de Frias offer a cuisine that revisits African flavours with local products. Le Virunga promises discoveries for all, including members of the African community.
Lloydie’s: With two locations now—on Saint-Viateur Street West and Notre-Dame Street—the kings of Jamaican patties continue to bring Caribbean cuisine to Montreal. Here, you can savour excellent jerk chicken, in a sandwich or poutine. Delicious!
Kwizinn: The Verdun branch radiates the warmth of the Caribbean. The house offers the best of its family recipes, to the great pleasure of the faithful customers who have adopted the address.
Marché Méli-Mélo: In Villeray, Marché Méli-Mélo has become a neighbourhood staple. Initially a grocery store offering African, Caribbean, West Indian and South American products, the owners have opened a restaurant counter where they offer small take-out dishes, including an “almost legendary” griot.
Palme: Located in the Village, Palme offers an excellent seasonal menu inspired by Caribbean flavours. We are already dreaming of summer and the reopening of the dining rooms to revisit their beautiful terrace overlooking Sainte-Catherine Street East.
