KWIZINN | A Taste of Caribbean Fusion Now in Old Montreal

Kwizinn

The culinary landscape of Montreal is forever evolving, and the latest addition to this vibrant scene is the new location of Kwizinn in Old Montreal, which has been eagerly awaited by food enthusiasts across the city.

After a successful four-year tenure on Wellington street in Verdun, Kwizinn closed its doors on March 25th, not to end its journey, but to embark on an exciting new chapter.

As of April 6th, their corner hot spot at 311 rue Saint-Paul Est invites guests into a world where culinary fusion meets Caribbean zest, all wrapped up in an exquisite ambiance.

Kwizinn‘s relocation is not only a change of scenery; it’s a transformation into a space that marries style with warmth.

The interior design strikes a perfect balance between elegance and comfort, featuring sleek modern touches that make you want to stay a while—whether that’s in a cozy nook for intimate conversations or in the lively area near the dance floor, urging you to let loose.

The ambiance is crafted not just by the décor but also by the masterful selection of all-natural wines and innovative cocktails prepared by Maison Cocktail, ensuring that every drink is a gateway to bliss.

The chef has outdone himself with a menu that stays true to Kwizinn’s roots in Caribbean fusion cuisine, while also daring to push culinary boundaries.

The menu is an ode to sharing and togetherness, featuring an array of tapas like the delicate Octopus carpaccio, the hearty griot, and a variety of empanadas, each with its own unique twist.

The side dishes, including yucca fries and Riz collé, are stars in their own right, while the main dishes offer something for everyone, from the indulgent tomahawk steak to the innovative gourmand plantain burger, the locally sourced cabri du Québec, or the vegetarian delight, Obe ata végé.

But Kwizinn isn’t just about the food and drink; it’s about the experience.

Live entertainment every weekend ensures that the vibe is always electric, with DJs and music performances that keep the energy high.

And for a truly unique experience, Cuban night every Sunday offers performances by Havana Mambo, promising to bring the heat of Cuba right to Montreal’s doorstep.

Michael Lafaille, Owner and Head Chef, expresses his excitement about the new venture:

“We’re so excited for people to experience the new Kwizinn and all that comes with it. We’ve gone way bigger and better this time around and can’t wait to share it with Montrealers and tourists alike.”

This statement isn’t just about the physical expansion of the space but about the ambition to create a dining experience that’s both expansive and inclusive, blending the best of culinary artistry with the spirit of community and celebration.

In a city celebrated for its diverse food scene, Kwizinn’s new location is a testament to Montreal’s ongoing culinary renaissance, where tradition and innovation converge, and where every meal is an opportunity to explore, enjoy, and connect.

Whether you’re a local or a tourist, make your way to Kwizinn in Old Montreal and prepare to be transported by flavors, sounds, and sights that promise to make every visit an adventure.
