    Went for a team dinner and the food was fresh and delicious. Highly recommend all their seafood plates. Most of the table got octopus which was amazing. For my main I got the fresh catch which was also very good, the only down side is that their side veggies are not flavored at all. But everything else was great!

    Extraordinary staff. Very helpful helping me getting seated - I was with my mom with limited mobility. I can’t remember ever being so well taken care of by a restaurant. Helping us choose the wine, food… a real pleasure. Food was fantastic as well. We were not rushed at all.

    The decor is stunning, I love the style! The food was amazing and we are glad to have found a new spot in Montreal. The restaurant had a large table, so it was fairly busy, and service a bit slow. However, they are a brand new establishment and still working out the kinks. I really enjoyed the menu and every bite. We will be back and would highly recommend Sea-Me to foodies. You will be in for a treat!
