Some nights, cooking simply isn’t an option. A move that lands on July 1st, a long day at work, or just the irresistible pull of not lifting a finger: delivery makes its own case, and even feels like a small, well-earned reward. The hard part is choosing. Too often we fall back on what we already know, the same plate that turns up at the door with no surprises, comfortable and safe.
This list of the best restaurants for delivery in Montreal is our way out of that rut. Sure, a dish eaten at home never quite matches dining in. But some spots genuinely rise to the occasion and put real care into their takeout, with food built to travel well.
Whatever you’re craving, there’s something here to hit the spot: a generous pizza to share, steamed dumplings, excellent sushi, or comforting rotisserie chicken. From Vietnamese cooking to neighbourhood counters, our selection casts a wide net for every night and every craving.
One tip before you order: when a restaurant takes orders directly on its own website, we always suggest going that route. It’s usually the best way to avoid delivery-app fees, and above all to support the restaurant owner, for whom every direct order means a few precious dollars more at the end of the month. When that option isn’t available, platforms like Uber Eats, DoorDash, and Skip the Dishes pick up the slack.
Every spot in this selection is already on our site. In other words, these are good tables, tested and approved, because if we’re talking about it, it’s good.
So here’s our list of the best restaurants for delivery in Montreal, ideal for Moving Day as much as for any lazy, no-cooking night.
