MTLàTABLE: Montreal’s Big Culinary Celebration
Every fall, Montreal comes together to celebrate its vibrant culinary scene through the MTLàTABLE event. This year, the edition will take place from October 30 to November 16, 2025.
Organized by Tourisme Montréal, the event features several hundred participating restaurants offering fixed-price menus, the perfect opportunity to discover or rediscover dining spots across the city.
A bit of history
MTLàTABLE was created to showcase Montreal’s gastronomy, support the restaurant industry during a quieter season, and offer the public a window into the city’s culinary diversity. For example, in 2024, the event brought together over 170 restaurants.
In 2025, this 13th edition stands out with a new visual identity and, notably, the introduction of “Air Canada Signature Experiences”, offering exclusive tasting menus at select establishments.
Menus are offered at fixed prices: brunches at $25 (selected restaurants) and dinner menus at $35, $50, $65, or $80.
Another highlight: the event spans multiple Montreal neighborhoods, from downtown to Old Montreal, from Plateau-Mont-Royal to the West Island, allowing participants to revisit familiar spots or explore new ones.
