Great salmon! The store is pretty clean and for what I've seen it has a lot of options.

Have a chance to visit Montreal for a couple days. Went to Solomos for the smoke salmon bagel, which is recommended by lots of Montreal local. Shop is clean and beautiful decor, service is fast and nice, price is a bit on the higher side for a Le New Yorker bagel, but the quality of smoke salmon and the house made a a cream cheese sauce is worth to pay a bit more. I ended up going there for a bagel for 2 times on 3 days in Montreal. This can be my proof on how great their Le New Yorker bagel. In addition, I bought the salmon cream cheese from the store. Went home today and try it, full of salmon flavor, and it won't override the cream cheese. Definitely worth the price! read more

Finally had the chance to try out this nicely designed shop not too far from me. They specialize in smoked salmon and offer a variety of sandwiches, smoked salmon and tartare. I ordered the chef salmon tartare garnished with mango, avocado, shallots and it came with bagel chips. They prepared it on the spot and everything was fresh. Portions are on the smaller size for the price point but quality is great. Staff was friendly and efficient :-) If you're a smoked salmon fan or looking to purchase sushi grade fish, pass by :-) read more

A sorely lacking necessity if you ask me. Solomos' freshly sliced smoked salmon is heads and tails above anything you will buy in a supermarket. Previously, people in the NDG/CDN area knew that the best place to get this type of delicacy was at the Victoria fish market. I've been there a few times. It's a dark space, looks run down, and smells strongly of fish (not in a good way). I been there when the display is completely empty save for a few long deceased looking fish carcasses. The elderly man who slices the fish is notorious for his "take it or leave it" attitude and general grumpy demeanour. Enter Solomos, the relatively new smoked salmon emporium on Queen Mary road. The establishment is immaculately clean. One is immediately struck by a large refrigeration unit with glass doors behind the counter. In the fridge, I see two massive filets of salmon hanging on hooks. They specialize is pastrami smoked salmon which reminds me of the product I used to enjoy at Russ and Daughters in NYC. It's basically salmon that has undergone a smoked meat treatment. It is beyond delicious. Their regular smoked salmon is also stellar. The secret is that the fish is smoked delicately thereby retaining its natural flavour. Also, noteworthy is that each slice is perfectly marbled with white lines of fat that melt in your mouth. Naturally, this product is more expensive than whatever brand you normally purchase from the grocery store. The good news is that the quality is infinitely better. They carry fresh Montreal bagels and make their own versions of cream cheese. One of them is a whipped concoction of chives and salmon which is a revelation unto its own. Their baked bagel chips taste strongly of olive oil and oregano and are legitimately addictive. Finally, the gentlemen behind the counter are very friendly as they slice fresh salmon in front of each customer. I hope they do well in the area and stay in business for many years. read more

Product is great. The food is fresh and the service is a1. But getting a mini bagel sandwhich that cost me 12$ makes me kinda upset. I could of just made it myself for less of the money. In my opinion, id say give them a try they're good and friendly. :) read more

Solomos - Mini bagel lux sandwich - Specialty Food Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

The salmon is to die for !!! I love this place. I've had almost everything on the menu and everything is excellent. The salmon platter has to be ordered 24h in advance. It is so worth it. Never had fresher salmon than here in Montreal. read more

How are we this lucky?? NDG has a seriously great panel of hidden places that are iconic and unique, and I feel like Solomos is quickly going to be one of them. It's fresh, it's new, but mostly it's QUALITY. We always gawked confusingly at the lines that would form outside this small establishment that looked more like a trendy science lab than a place to order food. Get here early, especially on weekends as some of their specialties (Solomos cream cheese) will sell out super fast. Heck, I went on a random Tuesday morning an hour after they opened and they already ran out. This place is popular with everyone! They're so good they don't need to advertise; just let that long line of people speak for itself. We got the classic bagel sandwich with cold smoked salmon, capers, cucumbers and their in house cream cheese. Omg, wow..! It's so, so fresh! the salmon almost tasted like high grade sashimi with a hint of smoke. Cucumbers were thinly sliced yet crunchy and again so fresh. Capers were a nice hit of salt, and a perfect amount. Finally, their cream cheese is wonderfully light, yet creamy, and flavors are perfection. It doesn't hit you right away like philly's cream cheese, but it has a taste that builds as you have more of it and let it marinate in your mouth with other ingredients. I ended up going back to get their dill and pickle cream cheese and now we are looking at this little tub excited at all the things we can spread this tub of joy on. It is on the pricier side with cream cheese coming to about $6-8, and the sandwiches ranging about $9-10ish. Service is always friendly, and the place is so quiet. I'm used to delis and fish markets being loud, overcrowded, and filled with surly or rambunctious bearded men. Not here. It's like a temple when you come in; clean, quiet, fast service, and gorgeously decorated if you like Scandi minimalistic look. The beautiful star lights in the storefront create a cozy feel in an otherwise very spacious, serene atmosphere. They also take covid precautions seriously, with markings on the floor to social distance, and the customers seem to know wordlessly the dance to follow (only have 2-3 ppl in the store at a time, keep your distance, use hand sanitizer on the side). Solomos once I become baller, you will see me often! For now, I'll come every now and again as a treat and rejoice to see your business continue to bloom! read more

Solomos opened quite recently and i finally walked in today to check them out. It's a spacious pleasant store. They have smoked salmon which comes as basic and spicy, smoked white fish and a creative variety of cream cheese. The cream cheese are more creative than usual. I got the one with dill and pickles which was unusually fresh. Naturally they have smoked salmon cream cheese (2 different kinds) and a forth flavor that i unfortunately dont recall. The two guys at the store were super kind and gave me samples of the smoked fish. The basic/classic salmom is nice and fresh. The smoke flavor/aroma is not as strong as the typical smoked salmon bought at a grocery store. It's notably milder and smoother. The spicy one was quite interesting. It had a richer more complicated flavor and the smoky character was more notable (still milder than a typical store bought). My fav smoked fish at the store though is their smoked white fish! That one was just perfect. The smoke flavor somehow enhanced the fish flavor and the texture was pleasantly delicate and not too dry at all - so good. Definitely going back to get one of those next time we have guests! If they had a little table at the corner of the store, some rice crackers and white wine, i would love loved to take a break here to relax after work every once in a while... read more

If you want to find the best Salmon in the world, go to Solomos. Variety, taste and personal treatment are all factors in my review. I found it by accident but will go back intentionally with friends and family for sure.

Solomos - Before cooking these amazing, flavorful, fresh pieces of salmon. Left ones lemon, Greek olive oil. Right ones are ginger sesame. A hit! - Specialty Food Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Products are amazing! The salmon is exquisite and the customer service is great! Always a good experience when I go there!

Beautiful, clean, modern space. Very simple. Lots of amazing smoked fish and smoked fish accessory products. We purchased a lb of their standard smoked salmon and half a lb of their "pastrami spice" salmon. Their salmon is easily one of the best I've ever had. Great customer service, the guys behind the counter were quite friendly and gave us generous samples. read more

The best smoked salmon in the city. Very nice staff, you can call first and they prepare your order in advance, or just stop in. Their cream cheese spreads are delicious, and their fresh fish (salmon, halibut, tuna) is super fresh and excellent quality. The prices are commensurate with the quality - you get what you pay for. read more
