This Italian steakhouse provides a great atmosphere with delicious dishes. It’s an excellent choice for a romantic evening with your partner or a business outing with the corporate client. If steak isn’t your top choice we recommend the ravioli with osso bucco.

For your Canadian favorites, head to this lovely restaurant just a short walk from Old Montreal. You’ll find options to satisfy the entire family, including burgers and fries, steak, and more however we definitely recommend you try their oysters.
We’ll also add their service is top notch!
A great place to grab a quick brunch, Stash Cafe is a must stop for travelers looking for some of the best crêpes you’ll find in the city. For those on the go, they also offer takeout so you can bring your meals back to enjoy in your fully furnished suite by OBASA / Six Three.
For a massive selection of fresh vegetables, cheeses, breads and more you have to head to Atwater Market. Browse their array of venders to get all the ingredients you need for that perfect picnic along the canal, or better yet. take it back to your OBASA / Six Three suite to cook something special in your fully equipped kitchen!
Another great option when it comes to open air markets in the city is the Jean-Talon Market. You’ll come across fresh local produce, authentic maple syrup, specialty gift shops and more!
Better yet, this market caters much more to the local crowd than tourists, so you can truly immerse yourself in the way of the Montrealer!
With more than 20 thematic gardens spread out over 75 hectares, the botanical gardens are a must stop for anyone looking for a serene afternoon in the heart of the city. Featuring over 22 thousand plant species from around the world, these gardens are a great place to meditate, hike or cross country ski.
While you're in the garden, make sure to check out the Alcan Planetarium. It’s an excellent choice to entertain the whole family.
Take a trip back in time to the founding of Montreal at Pointe-a-Calliere. This massive museum complex bridges the old with the new through interactive exhibits, immersive multimedia shows and more!
You’ll journey underground through archaeological excavations to unearth the city’s early history bringing the past to the present in a way that’s fun for the whole family.
Though a bit pricier than the other options, you can’t deny the beautiful views you’ll have of the city when aboard this giant ferris wheel on the Saint Lawrence River. We recommend going at night to see beautiful lights of the city and Jacques Cartier Bridge.
Also, if you’re visiting over the winter, take the opportunity to go ice skating in the rink below the ferris wheel.
